jq SECTIO: I - GEliERAL A. Backaround

1. The Pilgrim liuclear Power Station (Pl;PS) is located in the Town of Plymouth in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on the shore of Cape Cod Bay. '

2. An emergency at the PflPS may result in an unplanned release of radioactive material. The probability of such a release is considered very low due to design and structural specifications required and enforced by the fluclear Regulatory Commission (11RC) anti redundant safety systems. The unplanned release of radiation from

, Pt4PS remains a possibility and therefore, appropriate plans to V

protect the public health and safety must be maintained.

3. Federal guidelines require emergency planning for the areas within

, approximately a 10-mile and a 50-mile radius of PriPS. These areas, )

l 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 I been divided into subareas so the response effort can be directed toward the affected portion of the EPZ. The EPZ subarea boundaries are based upon compass direction and distance radii from Pf4PS as well as geographical and political considerations.

5. The Massachusetts Civil Defense Agency (MCDA) Area II has a response system in place to respond to emergency situations caused by natural i

or technological emergencies. i B. Assumptions e

(x l. 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.

l

3. PNPS will provide essential information as to the magnitude, J estimated start time, and nature of the release; areas affected; and, any recommended protective actions.

4. Town and State governmental agencies will respond, as required, to fulfill their responsibilities in providing for public safety.

a. Functions During an emergency, the EOC is the central location for the coordination of all Area II support to town response activities,.

[>

U including coordination of appropriate actions for the protection, of the public. The EOC is designed to provide adequate work a eas for all members of the ECC staff. Informational and operational data are posted and/or displayed on status boards II-H-1 08/04/88 - ID 4

and maps to enhance coordination among the various Area II response agencies,

b. Activation The Area II Director is responsible for EOC activation and operation. The EOC will be activated at the ALERT emergency classification level. Activation times will vary; however, full activation should occur within one hour,

c. Staffina The EOC is fully staffed with appropriate personnel at the ALERT emergency classification level. A primary and a minimum of one alternate are assigned for each staff position to ensure continuous 24-hour per day operations for a protracted period.

Following is a list of primary EOC groups.

(1) Ocerations Grouc The Operations Group consists of MCDA Area II staff, State agencies and other organizations that implement emergency response actions coordinated through the Area II Civil Defense Director. Each agency has specific emergency responsibilities outlined in Section II, Part A, for which they have been adequately trained and equipped.

O II-H-2 08/15/88 - ID 4

.Og (2) Public Information The only public information function that is performed at the Area II EOC is that of supplying information about Area II emergency response activities to the public information representative at the Media Center. This activity is performed by the Public Information Assistant.

(3) Succort Grouc The Support Group consists of communications, clerical, message control and logistics personnel who work under the direction of the Area II Director to provide support services to the other groups.

1. Purcose This section describes the accident assessment and radiological monitoring activities in the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ).

l ,

2. Radiological Honitorina Accident Assessment

a. Accident assessment activities are accomplished by the Utility and the State independently.

, O The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (HDPH) has the e primary responsibility for assessing an accident from a public health perspective. The. action arm for HDPH is the Nuclear Incident Advisory Team (NIAT). NIAT consists of members who are HDPH employees trained in monitoring and sampling procedures. I In addition, NIAT draws upon the expertise of a battery of identified specialists in various fields and disciplines associated with nuclear materials. HOPH has prepared a NIAT Handbook, in conjunctici with the Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP), which in turn is part of the Massachusetts Comprehensive Emergency Response Plan.

o-II-I-l 4/15/88

_ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ - -._-. - - =

m b. The NIAT Handbook specifies State monitoring team operations and equipment including:

(1) Notification and Team Activation Upon receipt of the notification call from the State Police, HOPH shall contact the Pilgrim Control Room to verify the emergency situation and obtain additional information. If the emergency classification is at the

" ALERT" or higher level, the HDPH shall activate NIAT, using an established call-down procedure.

(2) Vehicles and Communications Equipment Radio-equipped sedans are available for use by team members. The radios allow communications between the field teams, State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in Framingham, Area II EOC in Bridgewater, MDPH Headquarters in Boston, and Boston Edison Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) in Plymouth.

(3) Radiological Monitoring Kits All NIAT members have survey instruments capable of measuring alpha, beta and gamma radiation. In addition, they have a portable air sampler with battery clips and kits containing materials necessary for isolation of contaminated materials. - ,

y The capability exists to detettTn'dsmeasure radiciodine

/& i concentrations as low as 'l0-7)uCi/cc (microcuries per cubic v

/f l ,

4, centimeter) under field c riditions. The teams are also

(

supplied with ingestion pathway sampling kits which contain I l

equipment necessary ior the collection of environmental II-I-2

O c. Teams will proceed to the btility's EOF and report to the MDPH/NIAT Environmental Emergency Team Coordinator for a situation briefing. Teams will be dispatched to preselected 1

f.ield monitoring locations from the EOF to gather air, water, soil, and vegetation samples and dose rate information. All field radiological data shall be evaluated at the EOF by HDPH persanel and translated to actual and projected doses from which integrated dose es imates shall be made. Equipment and )

personnel are available at the EOF to perform initial analysts of air sample filter; and swipes. All field samples will be delivered to MDPH personnel at the EOF for transport to the g

laboratory for analysis. Primary location for laboratory analysis is the HDPH Jamaica Plain laboratories. Back-up II-I-3 4/15/88

laboratories. include the University of Lowell Radiation Lab and e

Q Labs in Framingham. > More information on labs is contained in the State RERP, Section 7.

d. Aerial monitoring for tracking the center line of the plume will be reauested from the U.S. Department of Energy.

e. Protective action recommendations are made by MCDA based upon recommendations of the MDPH and Utility personnel at the EOF.

Recommendations will be relayed to the Director of MCDA, to the Director of Public Safety, and then to the Governor for a protective action decision. Once a protective action is ordered by the Governor through the MCDA Director, it is the responsibility of local jurisdictions to implement it.

\

/ f. In the event of a fast breaking accident requiring immediate protective actions, the Utility will inform the State Police I ,s Troop D Shift Commander or Duty Officer who will coordinate l

,/ j siren sounding with the Towns and activate the Emergency

/ v Broadcast System.

protective actions, and the provisions made for continued. protection and care of evacuees.

\

I

2. Protective Action Decision-Makina l

+ ) '

a. The Governor of Massachusetts has ultimate responsibility and will make the final decision on recommended protective actions, in consultation with the Massachusetts Civil Defense Agency l (MCDA) Director, and the Massachusetts Department of Public i Health (HDPH) Commissioner. The MCDA Director and the MDPH Commissioner will base their recommendations on Federal Protective Action Guides (PAG's), radiological data, plant parameters and local conditions. The decision-making process involves comparing the benefits to be gained versus risks and constraints that might result from each particular action under

- consideration.

t .

' II-J-l l

08/04/88 - 10 18 l

l l

When a protective action has been recommended by the Governor, l

b.  ;

] /

the State Emergency.0perations Center (EOC) will notify Area II l l

who will notify the Towns of the protective action, affected

-- subarea (s), the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) message to.be broadcast and the time the sirens will be activated. This notification, via the Boston Edison Community Offsite Notification System (BECONS) and the activation of the Public Alerting System, will take place within fifteen minutes from the l time the Governor of Massachusetts or his designee has made a prote:tive action recommendation. I

c. In the event of a fast breaking incident, the Utility will notify the Massachusetts State Police Troop 0, Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) and Reception Communities and MCDA O Headquarters of the protective action recommendation. Troop D will inform the communities of the EBS message to be broadcast and the time the sirens are to be activated. Notification to the public must occur within fifteen minutes from the time of the Utility's recommendation for urgent action.

l l

d, The Commonwealth of Massachusetts will be guided by the criteria established in EPA-520/1-75-001, Manual of Protective Action l

Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents, and the l protective action guides established by the U.S. Health and Human Services and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for'the-ingestion of food, water, and milk.

II-J-2 08/04/88 - ID 18

e. Some of the variables that may influence decision-making regarding protective actions for the.10-mile EPZ are:

(1) Plant conditions.

(2) Projected radiation dose.

(3) Measured radiation dose.

(4) Portion of the EPZ affected.

(5) Time available in which an action could be taken to significantly reduce radiation doses.

(6) Radiation dose pathway.

(7) Available resources.

(8) Local weather and/or road conditions.

f. Some of the data needed for consideration of the above variables iO will be collected by State, Federal, and Utility field monitoring teams at preselected radiological sampling and monitoring points. (See Figure J-l for a map of pre-selected points.) The Towns have no field monitoring capability.

g. Affected towns will provide information on local conditions to the State EOC through Area II. This information will include weather and road conditions, resource availability, major. local

'/

tourist attractions'and any other constraints. The State will consider this information when making a protective action i

decision. This information will be updated as necessary.

3. Protective Actions I Sneltering and evacuation are the two primary protective actior.s which may be recommended for the general public within the plume l l

excosure cathway. Other available protective measures designed to support or supplement these two protective actions include access control, ad hoc respiratory protection and radioprotective drugs for some institutionalized people.

Areas in close proximity to and downwind from the Pilgrim Nuclear f Power Stations (PNPS) are more likely to be affected by a release; I

therefore, the 10-mile EPZ has been divided'into subareas, so that protective actions may be taken in the particular part of the EPZ affected by a release. (See Figure J-2,- for a map of the EPZ and its subareas). Protective actions'may be used in combination with one another.

In order to implement protective actions, resources beyond what is available on a daily basis may be needed. In addition to resources provided through Letters of Agreement, other assistance anc the authority for making it available are provided through a " State of

~

Emergency" declaration, first by Town Selectmen and then by the Governor. .

The various actions available to protect the public in the plume exposure pathway are described below.

( '

II-J-4 08/04/88 - ID 18

-_-________--__u- -:_:_:_w:___ - _; . - _ _

i.

-s a. Shelterina Sheltering may be recommended for the rapid passage of a plume, or when weather and/or road conditions indicate that sheltering would be ;afer than evacuation. Most year-round homes and  ;

buildings in the 10-mile EPZ are well insulated and could provide sufficient protection and shelter against direct and inhalation exposure. If sheltering is the protective action recommended to the public, they will be instructed to do the following:

(1) Remain indoors with ventilation systems turned off and doors and windows closed.

(2) Continue to monitor local radio / television stations for further EBS instructions /information.

(3) For essential trips outside, wear outer garments such as an I

overcoat, hat, gloves and boots and cover the nose and

!; w D ,

mouth with a, handkerchief. Upon re-entry, store outer -

garments for later monitoring and shower or wash off any exposed area of the skin.

(4) If traveling in a vehicle, close windows, vents and air circulation systems and proceed out of the EPZ or seek shelter in a public building. -

a t

II-J-5 08/04/88 - ID 18

b. Evacuation G ,,;t

is tne appropriate protective action for releases of Icng duration or high intensity. If evacuation is the recommended protective' action, residents will be instructed to leave the affected areas and, if radiological monitoring or lodging is needed, report to reception centers located at least 5 miles beyond the 10-mile EPZ boundary. At reception centers, the evacuees will be monitored for contamination, decontaminated (as necessary) and registered. Those evacuees who require loaging will be assigned to a Mass Care Shelter. Most of the evacuating population will travel in their own vehicles, driving out of the EPZ using designated evacuation routes. (See Figure J-3 for a f\ map of evacuation routes.)

U Should conditions warrant evacuation of PNPS, onsite personnel will be directed to evacuate via personal vehicle to one of the Utility-owned offsite Assembly Areas, either the Chiltonville Training Center or the Kingston Warehouse located on Summer Street. PNPS will notify the Kingston Civil Defense Director upon their departure. The Offsite Assembly Area will be chosen on the basis of wind direction and whether or not a release is in progress. ,

c. Access Control

() l Access control consists of the establishment of barriers and/cr 1 the assignment of personnel to restrict access to all or part of the 10-mile EPZ. l l

At the ALERT classification level, beaches, recreational areas and major tourist attractions will be closed to the public and access controlled or restricted.

Access control will be used in conjunction with sheltering and q evacuation protective actions. Access control can be highly effective in preventing the exposure of persons by preventing then) from traveling through the EPZ. It is also an effective

[')

V means of reducing traffic congestion on key roadways and eases security problems in evacuated areas. Those points necessary to control access into an affected area will be activuted.  !

l The Massachusetts State Police coordinates access control activities. Personnel from Massachusetts State Police Troop D, Plymouth County Sheriff's Department, and local police departments will staff access control points. The Massachusetts i

Department of Public Works (MDPH) and local public work,s departments will provide the necessary equipment to support l access control. Access to an affected area will be controlled 1

,O 6 II-J-7 l

l 08/04/88 - ID 18 l l

l i

g

until return of the public is authorized. The Massachusetts National Guard will support access control by providing relief personnel.

The U.S. Coast Guard, with assistance from town harbor masters, will control access into the portion of Cape Cod Bay within the 10-mile EPZ.

Air and rail traffic in or near the EPZ will be restricted in accordance with letters of agreement between MCDA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Conrail, and the Bay Colony Railroad. ,

1

d. Radiocrotective Druos Potassium Iodide (KI), the most commonly used thyroid blocking i agent, saturates the thyroid gland with non-radioactive iodine which blocks the uptake of radioactive iodine. In accordance with MDPH policy, KI will not be distributed to the general public.

KI may be administered to hospital and nursing home patients whose immediate evacuation, as determined by their attending medical officials, would be life threatening. KI may also be providedtofacilitystaffwhowouldremaintocareforthese

\ II-J-8 08/04/88 - ID 18 L________________-____-_______=-_:_=_-_==_r_------- -

I patients. An adequate supply of KI for patients and staff is stored at the Town EOC where the facility is located. At the l

ALERT Level, the KI will be distributed to each EPZ hospital and nursing home which admits intensive care or Level 1 patients.

The MDPH Commissioner or designee may recommend use of KI when the dose to the thyroid is projected to exceed 25 rem.

1

4. Shelterina and Evacuation of Soecial Populations i

Host of the population in the 10-mile EPZ have the capability and tae resources needed to implement a recommended protective action.

Special populations, however, require assistance in taking protective 1 action or receiving notification. This special population consists l of transportation dependent persons, the mobility impaired and otherwise handicapped people, persons in recreational areas, workers for major employers and persons in special facilities. The l

appropriate officers, in the Town EOC's will coordinate the actions necessary for their respective special population group.

In the event sheltering is recommended, members of the special population who are residents of or normally work in the EPZ will shelter in their own home or workplace in the same manner as the general public. EPZ visitors in the area, such as tourists, may require assistance in sheltering; therefore, public shelters have been established for their use.

\ II-J-9 08/04/88 - ID 18

_________-_______-__-___-__-_-_=_-_tt_2_:_=_

In the event evacuation is recommended, most members of the special I ps population, particularly persons in recreational areas, will, travel .

l out of the EPZ using their own vehicles. Others will require transportation assistance. The appropriate officer in the Town EOC will contact staff at special population sites to determine the number of persons requiring transportation assistance.

Transportation needs will be met to the extent possible with local resources that are used on a daily basis. Each officer in the EOC will report additional resource needs to the Town Transportation Officer who will obtain supplemental transportation resources through the Area II EOC.

Adequate supplemental transportation resources (vehicles and drivers) have been identified. Private bus companies within an approximate 40-mile radius of PNPS will supplement buses and drivers already under contract to the Towns, such as school buses and drivers. MCDA maintains Agreements with a sufficient number of private bus companies for enough buses and drivers to evacuate persons without transportation in a single trip. Private ambulance companies within an. approximate 40-mile radius of PNPS will transport persons who are 1

without transportation means and unable to ride.in a bus. MCDA maintains agreements with a sufficient number of priva'te ambulance

. companies to provide enough ambulances with crews to evacuate ambulance dependent persons in a single trip. The agreements with bus companies and ambulance providers are part of the Area II Plan.

II-J 08/04/88 - ID 18

1 I

Supplemental school bus resources will be dispatched by MCDA directly  ;

( to school buildings. All other supplemental transportation resources

.iill be assembled at Transportation Staging Areas. There are four i

Transportation Staging Areas designated for the PNPS plume EPZ.

These staging areas are:

MDPH " Park and Ride" Lot, Sagamore Governor John Carver Elementary School, Carver Hartinson Junior High School, Marshfield Silver Lake High School, Kingston If evacuation is recommended, ambulances will be dispatched by staging area personnel to special facilities and private homes as needed. Buses will be dispatched to special facilities, homes, and planned bus routes throughout the Towns for those without personal l transportation. Bus routes are shown in the Public Information 1

Brochure, Figure G-3 in the Town Plans.

l

a. Transportation Decendent i

Generally, transportation dependent persons will be notified of

I SECTION II - FUNCTIONS PART K - RADIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE CONTROL

1. Purcose This part describes exposure control for emergency personnel, contamination monitoring and decontamination of personnel and l

equipment, radioactive material control, and radioactive waste disposal.

2. Eauiement l

l

/ a. A dosimetry packet is issued at the ALERT or higher level to I each emergency worker performing an essential function inside the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). Packets are redistributed to response agencies and consists of the following:

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

~

- -(a) One mid-range SRD (CDV-730) 0-20 R 1

(b) One high-range SRD (COV-742) 0-200 R (2) One thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD)

(3) Radiation Exposure Personnel (REP) form with instructions (4) One neck chain.

i

. . . .+..-....w. . . . . . ..

. - ~ ~ . - -

1 i

b. The TLD is not direct reading, but is more accurate than the D SRD's and pro'vides a permanent exposure record for the individual emergency worker. 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 the 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.

I

d. The radiological dosimeter charger (CDV-750) is used to charge

' or "REZER0" the SRD's. The chargers will be kept at the dosimetry issuing points.

e. Calibrated survey meters contained in redistributed monitoring and decontamination kits 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, ----l 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.

s 3. Readina. Reoortina and Recordkeecina

a. Emergency workers report their dose in 1R increments to their Dosimetry Coordinator. These readings are forwarded to all levels of the Radiological Exposure Control 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 by the Area II Radiological Offic.er.

( c. The exposure received from each mission.is entered on the REP form and the cumulative exposure is maintained (See Figure K-4).

d. The Dosimetry Coordinator responsible for issuing dosimetry keeps a log of equipment issued. and continually tracks the accumulated emergency worker 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.

]

l

f. After the emergency has ended, copies of completed REP forms, Dosimetry log sheets, and forms documenting personnel and equipment monitoring and any decontamination efforts are forwarded from the originating agency through the organization until copies of all documents are received by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH).

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 by carefully monitoring individual exposure accumulations.

Also, non-radiologically related tasks (e.g., data recording, communications) are performed outside of radiation areas, whenever possible.

b. MDPH permission must be obtained before exceeding their administrative limits of SR,10R and 15R. No emergency worker will be permitted to exceed 20R except for volunteer life-saving missions.

c. When the need arises to allow an individual, on a voluntary basis, to exceed 20R for a life-saving activity, the emergency worker's Dosimetry Coordinator (or other responsible supervisor) will inform the Radiological Officer in the Area II Emergency Operations Center (EOC). The Area II Radiological Officer will relay the request II-K-4 08/04/88 - ID 17

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 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 E0C in Framingham.

5. Thyroid Exoosure Limits 9 If the thyroid dose to emergency workers is projected to exceed

[d a.

25R, emergency workers who may be exposed are instructed to take potassium iodide (KI). This decision is made to allow sufficient time for maximum effectiveness of KI.

b. KI, the most commonly used thyroid blockin; ant, saturates the thyroid with non-radioactive iodine to block uptake of radioactive iodine. KI is supplied to Massachusetts Civil Defense Agency (MCDA) for distribution to emergency workers.

MCDA places a full dose complement of KI tabi'ets in each dosimetry kit to allow distribution to emergency workers promptly upon the recommendation from the MDPH. Each bottle of g

KI tablets placed in the dosimetry kits is checked semi-annually and carries a warning concerning the side effects associated II-K-5 08/04/88 - ID 17 1 _ ___ _- . . . - . - - - . . __ _ _ - _ _

with the use of KI. Emergency workers who use dosimetry are y advised of the side effects of KI in training courses.

6. Contamination Monitorina and Decontamination

a. Emergency workers are monitored for contamination 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 shall be monitored. Monitoring is performed by fire department personnel at Emergency Worker Monitoring and Decontamination Stations.

[ b. Personnel designated to perform emergency wo ker contamination monitoring and decontamination are provided with contamination monitoring instruments, as well as decontamination and radioactive material control supplies and necessary documentation forms. These items are maintained in kits specifically designed to support their function, along with the specific instructions for the care and use of the equipment.

The kits are kept at the Emergency Horker Monitoring and Decontamination Stations. A list of Emergency Worker Monitoring and Decontamination Stations is included in Figure K-3.

s C

\

' II-K-6 08/04/88 - ID 17

c. All personnel and equipment contamination monitoring f acilities are equipped to decontaminate individuals, vehicles and equipment found to have contamination levels of .3 mR/hr (milli-Roentgen / hour) or greater above background. Any person reading .1 mR/hr or greater above oackground on a thyroid screen will be referred to medical facilities for evaluation ('see I Figure K-2).

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

! O\_./

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

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

7. Medical Succort and Treatment Facility

a. Designated hospitals will decontaminate the following:

(1) Mobility impaired transported by ambulance or other special vehicle.

II-K-7 08/04/ES - ID 17

- - - _ _ __ .~_._..~__n._ ~ ~ - . - _ -

(2) Persons with open wounds.

(3) Persons 'who cannot be decontaminated below .3 mR/hr above  ;

1 background in two (2) attempts.  :

b. All persons reading greater than .1 mR/hr above background for thyroid dose will be sent to designated hospitals for evaluation and treatment of possible radioactive iodine uptake.
