SECTION I - GENERAL O A. Backaround

1. The Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (PNPS) is located in the Town of Plymouth in the Cownonwealth of Massachusetts on the shore of Cape Cod Bay. Taunton lies to the west of PNPS, outside of the 10 mile 1

radius, but within the ingestion exposure pathway EPZ.

l

2. A hazard consideration for PNPS is the potential unplanned release of radioactive material resulting from an emergency at the plant. The probability of such a release is considered very low due to design and structural specifications required and enforced by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and redundant safety systems. The unplanned release of radiation from PNPS remains a possibility and therefore, appropriate plans to protect the public health and safety must be maintained.
3. Federal guidelin0s require emergency planning for the areas within approximately a 10-mile and a 50-mile radius of PNPS. These areas, referred to as Emergency Planning Zones (EPZ), are areas in which

. certain types of protective measures for the public may need to be taken in the event of a radioactive release. The 10-mile EPZ has been divided into sub-areas so the response effort can be directed toward the affected portion of the EPZ. The EPZ sub-area boundaries are based upon compass direction and distance radii from PNPS as well as geographical and political considerations.

O I-1 07/29/88 - ID 194 l

4. Within the 10 mile EPZ, the exposure to the public may come from direct contact with deposited material, or by inhalation of radioat cive particles in the plume. Exposure within the 50 mile ingestion exposure pathway EPZ may come from ingestion of contaminated food, water or milk.
5. The City of Taunton is governed by a Mayor and City Council as provided by pertinent laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the Taunton City Charter. This governmental system is capable of handling all types of natural or man-made emergency situations such as floods, severe weather, hazardous material accidents or snow emergencies. This has been proven by actual experience in evacuations during all seasons of the year whereby governmental units support the evacuation process and have procedures in place for notification, warning, evacuation, and establishment of mass care j shelters for evacuees. This experience forms a realistic basis for the City's responsibilities as they pertain to an incident at PNPS.

These responsibilities, as outlined in more detail in Section II, '

involve providing for the needs of the evacuating public.

B. ASSUMPTIONS

1. A radiological emergency can arise from operations at PNPS which will affect members of the general public.
2. PNPS will comply with the prompt notification requirement.  ;

v I-2 07/29/88 - ID 194 E-----------_------------------------_----------------_-

4

3. PNPS will provide essential information as to the magnitude,

( estimated start time and nature of the release: areas affected; and,

\

recommended protective actions.

4. City governmental agencies will respond, as required, to fulfill responsibilities in providing for public safety and health.
5. State governmental agencies will respond to assist EPZ and host communities, and implement responsibilities assigned in the Massachusetts Comprehensive Emergency Response Plan, Appendix 3 (Radiological Emergency Response Plan).

C. SCOPE O 1. This plan includes responsibilities of local, State, and Federal

~

agencies, and private volunteer organizations capable of planning for i and responding to an incident at PNPS.

2. The plan designates specific tasks, and the methods of implementation by agencies to fulfill their responsibilities.
3. The plan describes the various protective actions to be taken in the event of a radiological incident at PNPS.

PART J - PROTECTIVE RESPONSE

1. Puroose This part identifies the basis for decisions regarding protective  !

actions recommended to the Public, the implementation of those protective actions, and the provisions made for continued protection of emergency workers and care of evacuees.

2. Receotion Center - Conceot of Ooerations
a. Evacuation of EPZ Pooulation (1) If evacuation is the recommended protective action, the EPZ population at risk (by subareas) is instructed to leave the i affected area along designated routes and to go to the designated Reception Center. At the Reception Center, the evacuees are monitored for contamination and decontaminated (if a radioactive release has occurred), registered, and assigned to a public shelter (Mass Care Shelter), as required.

(2) Most of the evacuating population travel out of the EPZ in their own vehicles. Buses transport evacuees without access to automobiles from the EPZ Towns to the Reception II-J-1 07/28/88 - ID 93

l Centers.

i (3) School children are bused at SITE AREA EMERGENCY to assignment host school. I

b. Recertion Center Ooerations I

I Staffing for the Reception Center is shown at Figure J-1 i

(ORGANIZATION CHART). The following are the major functional areas of the Reception Center:

(1) Traffic Control -

Traffic Control activities' include facilitating the flow of traffic to the Reception Center and to all Mass Care O Shelters used as well as providing for impediment removal along evacuation routes as required, by the Department of Public Works.

(2) Vehicle Monitorina -  ;

l Vehicle Monitoring is performed by twelve two man teams of I monitoring / decontamination workers from the Taunton City Fire Department (120 man service) just off Hodges Ave at l the Taunton State Hospital. (See Figure J-2).

(3) Vehicle Decontamination - i Vehicle Decontamination is performed during recovery

- operations, or sooner as personnel become available, by a dry-wipe method. (See Figure J-2).

II-J-2 i

07/28/88 - ID 93 i

p (4) Personnel Monitorina -

An estimated 10,280 evacuees (20% of the resident and transient population of Plymouth, south of Rt. 44) would arrive at the Taunton Reception Center (the Cain Building located at the Taunton State Hospital, approximately twenty seven miles west of the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station).

One Portal Monitor can monitor evacuees at a rate of one person every 15 seconds or 240 persons per hour. Four Portal Monitors and 13 Fire Department Personnel per shift are planned. Therefore, the 10,280 evacuees could be monitored in 10.7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />. Figure J-3 shows the personnel monitoring flow at the Cain Building.

(5) Personnel Decontamination -

(a) Personnel decontamination is also performed at the Reception Center where males and females are separated, I

~

clothing is provided to replace any that is l l

contaminated, and secondary monitoring is performed to I verify removal of contamination. Contaminated handicapped persons are provided with protective covering and transported to local hospitals for necessary decontamination. If evacuees have showered twice, and acceptable levels are still not reached (See Figure K-2) they will be sent to a local hospital for medical evaluation, as appropriate.

O II-J-3 07/28/88 - ID 93

1 l

(b) All personnel and vehicle contamination monitoring O facilities are equipped to decontaminate individuals, l vehicles and equipment found to have contamination levels above the allowable levels. Reference Part K of this plan for contamination levels and required actions.

(c) Personnel performing contamination monitoring and decontamination activities will segregate, contain and identify (through radiological signs and barriers) contaminated items. These activities are monitored and controlled by HDPH personnel. The collection and I

handling of radioactive waste from decontamination is j coordinated by MDPH and provided by the Boston Edison Company who will ensure proper disposal at the end of the emergency.

(6) Registration -

~

Registration is provided to aid in reuniting families and to ensure accountability of those having been monitored and decontaminated. If needed, following registration. l evacuees will be transported to public shelters (Mass Care Shelters) if transportation and/or sheltering is requested. Registration support is sufficient to ensure registration of evacuees within twelve hours, using a twelve member registration team with a coordinator.

II-J-4 07/28/88 - ID 93

(7) Medical Sueoort -

O ,..

Individuals arriving at the Taunton Reception Center in need of medical. treatment (first aid) are monitored and then directed to the Medical Screening room, First Floor, of the Cain Building, for screening and evaluation by medical personnel. i (8) Procedures have been developed for all positions associated with Reception Center operations. A listing of procedures )

is shown in Section V.

3. Mass Care Shelter Ooerations Taunton school facilities serve as Mass Care Shelters for evacuees j (Figure J-4 and J-5). These Mass Care Shelters are activated as needed, and are operated under the direction of the American Red Cross.

l

a. Transportation by buses obtained through the MCDA, Area II (between the Reception Center and Mass Care Shelters) is provided for those without personal vehicles, by the Greater Attleborough - Taunton Regional Transit Authority. Buses will l l

be staged at the Reception Center as shown in Figure J-2.

b. American i,ed Cross nurses are available at the Mass Care Shelters to provide first aid and referrals.

O II-J-5 07/28/88 - ID 93

1

c. The Board of Health provides sanitary inspections, etc., to ensure the safe operation of Mass Care Shelters,
d. The Police Department provides traffic control and security, and maintains law and order at the Mass Care Shelters. I
e. RACES may be requested to handle the operational communication needs of the Mass Care Shelter staff to and from the City of Taunton EOC. ,
4. Traffic Control i a. Major traffic intersections are controlled (traffic control points) by the Taunton Police Department with additional support provided by other local Police, the State Police and the Massachusetts National Guard, as appropriate (see Figure P-2 Supporting Document [ Evacuation Time Estimate Studies]). The Access Control Points are established at the front and back gates of Taunton State Hospital.
5. Protective Actions - Inaestion Exoosure Pathway EPZ '

A radioactive release can result in the contamination of some foodstuffs. Milk is particularly susceptible because it can become l contaminated by contaminated pasturage ingested by dairy animals.

Potable water, both ground and surface water supplies can also be II-J-6 07/28/88 - ID 93

p contaminated. In general, the ingestion pathway to man is a consequence providing reasonably long response time, although it could be necessary to immediately restrict milk, water and some freshly harvested vegetables and fruits.  !

l The Massachusetts Radiological Emergency Response Plan provides for l the monitoring, collection, analysis and disposition, when necessary, of contaminated foodstuffs and milk, and the analysis of water.

These provisions are carried out by the Department of Public Health.

with support from key State agencies. Reference the State Plan for more information.

t

a. Hater O Taunton draws its water supply from Lake Assawompsett in Lakeville. There is a holding reservoir in Taunton, but it is
covered. Because of the volume of Lake Assawompsett and the distance from PNPS, levels of contamination requiring interdiction of the water supply is highly unlikely. Should i l

interdiction be necessary, the Taunton Hater Department will be notified by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental l Quality Engineering, through the Massachusetts Civil Defense Agency.

k II-J-7 07/28/88 - ID 93 .

l l

b. Hilk/ Foodstuffs The Board of Health's responsibility for supporting State action, with respect to milk, dairy cattle, pasturage, stored feed and foodstuff includes:

l (1) Maintaining inventories of dairy farms, sources of stored feed, and listings of commercial and large non-commercial farms.

(2) Assisting State authorities, upon request, in disseminating notification to the community and enforcement of necessary actions. -

l SECTION II - FUNCTIONS PART K - RADIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE CONTROL i

I l 1. Purcose l

i This part describes the radiological monitoring and exposure control for emergency workers performing contamination monitoring and decontamination of evacuees and vehicles, radioactive material control, and radioactive waste disposal.

2. Eauioment
a. A personal dosimetry packet is issued to each emergency worker performing monitoring / decontamination activities. Packets are ,

stored at the E0C Taunton Fire Department and Bristol County EMS Offices and each consists of the.following:

(1) Two self-reading dosimeters (SRD's)

(a) One mid-range SRD (CDV-730) 0-20 roentgens (R)

. (b) One high-range SRD (CDV-742) 0-200 roentgens (R)

(2) One Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD)

(3) Radiation Exposure Personnel (REP) form with instructions.

(4) Dosimetry neck chain (to ensure proper dosimetry placement).

O II-K-1 07/28/88 - ID 160

^ Dosimetry will be issued by Dosimetry Coordinators at the Fire and EMS Departments and the Radiological Officer at the EOC.

A 107. surplus of all Radiological instruments for Taunton response agencies is also maintained at the EOC to supplement or replace any malfunctioning instruments,

b. The TLD is not direct reading, but is more accurate than the SRD's, and provides a permanent exposure record for the individual emergency record. Boston Edison has contracted to process emergency worker TLD's on a 24-hour basis.

l c. The SRD provides the wearer with a visual indication of cumulative dose received for the mission. The SRD is direct-reading, allowing the emergency worker to check the total dose received at any time. The SRD documented readings provide ~

the permanent record (official dose) in the event an individual's TLD is lost or damaged.

d. The radiological dosimeter charger (CDV-750) is used to "re-zero" the SRD's. The chargers are kept at the Dosimetry Issuing Points.

O II-K-2 07/28/88 - ID 160 L_________________

I

e. Calibrated survey meters contained in the monitoring and 4 decontamination kits stored at the Reception Center are used to determine the presence of contamination. The CDV-700 survey meter is used to locate and quantify external radioactive contamination on personnel or equipment, to detect potential internal thyroid contamination, and to measure dose rates in low intensity radiation fields.
f. Supply and maintenance of radiation monitoring and personnel dosimetry equipment is discussed in Part H of this plan, j
3. Readina. Reportina and Recordkeeoina. )

i A a. Emergency workers using dosimetry report their doses in 1R increments to their Dosimetry Coordinator. These readings are forwarded to all levels of the Radiological Exposure Control I

Organization (Figure K-1). Each level of the organization that provides any monitoring or decontamination ensures that these efforts are documented.

b. Individuals are instructed to read their self-reading dosimeters at least every 30 minutes and more frequently when directed to do so by the HCDA, Area II Radiological Officer.

O II-K-3 l 07/28/88 - ID 160 i

i

_ _ - - _ _ _ _ _ l

1

c. The exposure received from each mission is entered on the REP

\O form and the cumulative exposure is maintained.

d. The Dosimetry Coordinator responsible for issuing dosimetry keeps a log of equipment issued, records readings when called in and continually tracks the accumulated emergency workers' dose.

The dosimetry logs are updated when doses are reported to the Dosimetry Coordinator.

e. Records of personnel and equipment monitored, and any decontamination efforts that occur are kept by the agency performing these activities.
f. After the emergency has ended, copies of completed dose records, equipment log sheets and forms documenting personnel and equipment monitoring and any decontamination efforts are forwarded from the originators through the organization until copies of all documents are received by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (HDPH).
4. Whole Body Exoosure Limits
a. Emergency response procedures are designed to prevent or minimize exposure for emergency workers. Actions include methods such as rotation of tasks to minimize worker exposures  ;

i O II-K-4 ,

i 07/28/88 - ID 160

O by carefully monitoring individual exposure accumulations.

Also, non-radiologically related tasks (e.g., data recording, )

i communications) are performed outside of radiation areas, ]

whenever possible.

)

b. HDPH permission must be obtained before exceeding their administrative limits of SR,10R and ISR. No emergency worker I

will be permitted to exceed 20R except for volunteer life-saving missions. ,

i

c. When the need arises to allow an individual on a voluntary basis, life-saving activity, the emergency worker's Dosimetry 1

Coordinator (or other responsible supervisor) will inform the Radiological Officer in the Area II Emergency Operations Center The Area II Radiological Officer will relay the request (EOC).

to MDPH. If MDPH agrees that the exposure is warranted, the individual may be allowed to receive a voluntary exposure of up to 75R for a life-saving activity.

d. If the emergency worker is a town employee, the Town Radiological Officer will verify the circumstances and inform i the Area II Radiological Officer of the situation and any implementation that is being carried out. Follow-up information.

will be provided to the Area II Radiological Officer who will relay such information to MDPH at the State EOC in Framingham.

II-K-5 1

07/28/88 - ID 160

5. Contamination Monitorina and Decontamination r]

G

a. Emergency workers are monitored for contamination at the ,

1 Reception Center when they have been in potentially contaminated areas, when dosimeters indicate radiation exposure, or when such monitoring is requested by the individual. All vehicles and equipment potentially contaminated are also monitored at the Reception Center monitoring stations.

1

b. The training course given to emergency workers providing radiological monitoring and decontamination includes sections on personnel and vehicle monitoring and decontamination methods and

, waste control measures.

o V c. Decontamination of equipment and vehicles will occur in the recovery phase or as soon as personnel are made available to do ~

so. Contamination levels and required actions are outlined in l Figure K-2.

I

d. Personnel performing contamination monitoring and decontamination activities will segregate, contain and identify (through radiological signs and barriers), contaminated items.

These activities are monitored by MDPH personnel. The collection and handling of radioactive waste from decontamination is coordinated by HDPH and provided by the Boston Edison Company who will ensure proper disposal at the end of the emergency.

II-K-6

6. Medical Succort and Treatment Facility O
a. Morton Hospital is the primary treatment facility for decontamination of the following: .
1) Hobility impaired transported by ambulance or other special  ;

1 vehicle. ]

2) Persons with open wounds. .
3) Persons who cannot be decontaminated below .3 mr/hr above background in two attempts. f i
b. All persons reading greater than .1 HR/HR above background for  !

thyroid dose will be sent to the hospital for evaluation and treatment of possible radioactive iodine uptake.

Nuclear Preparedness It has come to my attention that many of the nuclear i preparedness plans submitted by the Civil Defense l officials to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)

' contain inappropriate roles for the Red Cross.

For your clarification, the Red Cross response focuses  %

on meeting the i= mediate needs of evacuees and workers .

through the provision of mass care.

'J To further define our role, the' Red Cross will:

1. Conduct mass care sheltet and feeding operations

~

~

in centers and facilities designated in advance i x by the Civil Defense organization. These operations l will consist of: I

a. The registration of evacuees who elect. -

to go to mass cire shelters so that there is a cens's u atLall times of the individuals and families who remain there.

% Food service.- - -

c. Sleeping accommodations. '
d. An emergency medical station supervised by an RN and the service of referring shelter occupants to'a doctor or hospital*'

if needed.

e. Recreation service if the evacuees remain for an extended period of time. -

2. 1 Civil Defense is responsible for determining, in advance, the schools or other buildings which will be used as reception and decontamination centers and shelters. At the time of an incident, Civil Defense specifies which buildings are to be opened. The Red Cross Chapter in the host area checks the buildings to be used as shelters during the preparedness phase to insure compliance with American Red Cross regula-tions and enters into shelter agreements with'the responsible officials. The chapter assigns its trained shelter managers, nurses, and support staff to the buildings. Decontamination, if required, is conducted by government personnel at a loca-tion separate from established shelters. .

In addition, the Red Cross Disaster Shelter Registration (Form i 5972) is to be used only at shelter locations. The gov- i ernment has the responsibility for the reception centers and are to use their forms if they decide to register all evacuee's.

I hope this clarifies our role during these incidents and that l you will share this information with the. proper local officials. l If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. .

MICHAEL 8. DUKAKl3 ROSERT J. BOULAY asynam.on osaacToa About 1 July 1987, this Chapter will be changed to Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter encompassing 4 regions.that are presently in '

existence:

Greater Fall River Brockton (Old Colony)

Taunton Plymouth The Shelter Registration Form presently in the Response Plan is the Red Cross Form 5972 and is_ used by the Red Cross. The copies of this. Form and its distribution have to be changed in the Plan, though: s Copy 1 Shelter Master File Copy 2 Family Service copy 3 Disaster Welfare Inquiry Copy 4 Shelter Receptionist (Hard Copy)

The Reception Center Registration Form is somewhat similar to the '

Shelter Registration Form, but the one that should be used by Power Plants in Massachusetts will be mailed to Ed Fratto by Mr.
