. l G. PUBLIC EDUCATION AND INFORMATION G.1/G.2 P"blic Education and Information Program On an annual basis, Duke Power Company will update the emergency planning information booklet for Oconee, McGuire and Catawba Nuclear Stations (Attachments G-1, G-2 and G-3 respectively). Copies of this booklet will be distributed to residents within the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone. The booklets will provide educational information on (a) radiation, (b) contacts for additional information, (c) protective measures, e.g. evacuatien routes, relocation centers and shelters, and (d) special needs of the handicapped.

The public information program for the transient population will include signs or stickers posted in places where the transient population are likely to be found. This will include motels, hotels, police stations, fire stations, public libraries, post offices, lake sccess areas and Duke Power Company retail offices. (Posting of sGJ ns or stickers in these locations will depend upon approval by the property owners.) To help ensure that the transient population will be effectively reached, local emergency officials and Chambers of Commerce will be asked to recommend locations for the signs or stickers. The signs or stickers will describe how the public would be alerted and what to do if alerted. They will identify 1,ecific radio and television frequencies for receiving information during an emergency. They will also identify where the

. emergency planning information booklets can be obtained for additional

( information.

t .

The emergency planning information booklets will be' distributed annually to the types of locatio n identifi'ed on theisigns or stickers. The number of copies provided to each facility or location will be based on an initial estimate of the number expected to be rec,uested by the management of the facility. Duke Power will then contact the facility on a quarterly basis to cetermine whether additional copies of the booklet are needed. The number of copies provided to each facility will be adjusted as necessary to ensure that copies will generally be available whenever requested by the public.

(Participation in this program depends upon the cooperation of management at each non-Duke Power facility or location.)

G.3.a Crisis News Group - Location ar.-d Contacts Public information during an emergency at Oconee, McGuire, or Catawba will be provided at the Media Center. The Media Center for McGuire and Cata,.ca is located at the 0. J. Miller Auditorium in Charlotte. The center f'r Oconee is located at Keowee-Toxaway World of Energy. Layouts of bo h News Areas are shown in Figures H-9 for Oconee and H-22. for McGuire and Latawba. The News Director and Public Spokesperson are the principal contacts for the news media.

In an emere ncy, should the CMC be evacuated, the News Organization working out of the General Office will coordinate any public information releases with the Emergency Coordinator in the TSC. Until the CMC has been reestablished at the backup location, the Emergency Coordinator becomes '.he key G-1 Rev. 29 April 5,1989

L ,

n L '. decisionsaker in the Company's emergency response effort. When the CMC is ' " .

li reestablished, the Recovery Manager assumes responsibility fo'r~ overall-l: (emergency response.

G. 3. b - News Center --Space

.The, Media Centers at Oconee, McGuire and Catawba are capable of accommodating 100 - 300 news media personnel.

G.4.a Pub 1'ic Spokesperson The Public Spokesperson for Duke Power Company will be the one individual designated Lto provide the Company's information to the media. .The persons-1 filling this role on a primary or alternate basis are described in the Crisis News Group Implementing Procedure.

G.4.b Spokesperson Information Exchance The News Director will with the concensus of outside agencies, establish a timetable for joint news conferences at which time designated spokespersons will exchange information on operations and the situation at hand. Prior to these conferences, designated spokepersons will briefly meet to review the

' situation.

G.4.c . Rumor Control 0 The' Crisis News Director and Public Spokesperson will, in their conferences with the spokesperson of other agencies, determine if any rumors are known to be circulating. .lf so, c. coordinated plan and effo.rt wi.11 be made by the group to deal with the' misinformation'and specifically correct it in the news

. conference.

- G. 5 News Media Trainino Sessions .

Programs will.be conducted annually to acquaint news media with the emergency plans, radiacion and points of contact for release of public information in an emergoney.

Duke Power will determine the appropriate formats for these programs which may be varied occasionally to encourage greater media participation. The formats could include media briefings at licensee locations, briefings at media locations for convenience of media, distribution of printed materials to media, -interviews with Duke Power officials and/or tours of Duke Power

. facilities.

DUKE POWER COMPANY OCoNEE NUCLEAR STATION . .

P,ctsox143e SENECA, s.C. 29679

Dear Neighbor,

The Oconee Nuclear Station is proud to be a part of your community. The employees of the Oconae Nuclear

- Station are committed to our area; it is the place where we live and work.

We show'our commitment by our involvement in the community. More importantly, we demonstrate our commitment ~through the aafe, reliable and efficient production of electricity at Oconee.

We are proud of the station and'want you to get to know us.. We also want you to understand the emergency plans for our area.

It's not likely we would ever have a serious emergency at Oconee. But it is important for you to know what to do if there were an emergency., This booklet tells you. Please read it and keep it handy.

If you know someone who is blind or does not read well, read this information to that person. Talk to that per"s'on about what tci 'do in emergincy'.

~

If there were an emergency, listen only to state and county officials and your local radio and tv -

stations. They would give you the right information.

Follow the instructions given at the time of the emergency. -

. We have a tradition of excellence, efficiency and commitment to safety at Oconee. If you have questions about plant operations or our emergency plan, call us at (803) 882-5620, (803) 868-2717, extension 2430 or 1-800-777-0005. You may hear a recorded station update

- by dialing (803) 882-8829 or (803) 868-2267.

Sincerely, kMike Tuckman Station Manager 1

h 3.. r h [ The Oconee Nuclear Station uses steam to generate electricity. Steam pushes against qg the blades of a turbine to turn them. As the turbine spins, it turns a generator. The 7 'i,g, generator produces electricity.

~

Since Oconee is a nuclea< station, it uses uranium as its fuel. Uranium atoms can be split apart. This process is called nuclear fission. When the atoms split, heat and fission products are produced. The heat is used to make steam. Some of the fission products are radioactive. The plant is designed to keep this radiation inside.

Here's how it works:

[

= w 1 2 3 4 57 6-There are three separate systems of water at Oconee. Water in one system doesn't touch water in another system.

The first system is the primary water system (shown in green), it circulates around the

~

~

4

' nuclear fuel, called the core (1).~

As it flows through the reactor (2), it heats to ebout 600* F. Because this water is under very high pressure, it does not boil. The amcmt of heat produced in the reactor is controlled by control rods (3). The reactor shtas down when the controLrods are lowered.

The heated primary water next flows through tubes in the steam generator (4). There it gives off its heat to water (dark blue) in the secondary water system. The pnmary water system is then pumped back to the reactor to be heated again.  !

Water in the secondary system is changed to steam (light blue) in the steam generator.

The steam spins a turbine (5) connected to an electric generator (6) and produces 1 electricity. As the steam leaves the turbine, it falls on pipes (7) carrying cooling water in '

the third system (yellow). This cooling water comes from Lake Keowee.

As the steam hits the outside of the pipes, it is changed back to water. It is then pumped to the steam generator to be heateo to steam again.

P. .

! 73 a cjiolion , , , Radiation is energy. Radar, radio waves, ultraviolet (sun) rays and X-rays are common

, y g , g g .; 1, g 3 forms of radiation.

Radiation is all around us. It is in the air we breathe, in the food we eat and in our homes.

. It is even in our bodies. These sources of radiation are combined and called background radiation.

In addition to natural background radiation, there is also man-made radiation, it comes from such things as medical and dental X-rays and treatments. Very small amounts of radiation come from the normal operation of nuclear power plants.

There are three types of radiation that could be found in a nuclear power plant: alpha particles, beta particles and gamma rays. Alpha partcles are the least penetrating. They can be stopped by a sheet of paper. Beta particles can be stopped by a thin sheet of metal. Gamma rays are the most penetrating. But they can be stopped by concrete or lead.

Radiation is measured in units called millirem. The average person receives about 180 millirem of background and mao-made radiation a year. Each year we get more radiation

. from natural sources than we get from an operating nuclear plant. The chart on the next page shows how much radiation we get ' rom different sources. You can see an operating nuclear power plant adds very little to the amount of radiation we get, if there were a major emergency at Oconee, people near the plant might be exposed to levois of radiation higher than background levels. Exposure to very high levels of radiation may make you sick ard in extreme cases, it may be fatal. For your protection, follow the instructions on the emergency broadcast stations.

Unborn babies and children up to age six are more likely than others to be harmed by radiation. Early precautions might therefore be ordered for pregnant women and very young children.

According to medical experts, evidence shows radiation doses of 25.000 to 50,000 millirem do not cause permanent health problems. To be extra careful, protective actions would be ordered at much lower levels. This would assure you and your family extra

. protection from darnaging levels of radiation.

4 f  ; Chain Reaction - The point in the fission process at which the production of neutrons in the reactor core is self-sustaining.

Cold Shutdown - The nuclear reactor is shut down and the temperature in the primary system is less than 200 F.

Contamination - Loose radioactive materials in unwanted places such as on the skin or on clothes. It can usually be removed by simple cleaning.

Control Rods - Rods made of material that absorbs neutrons. When inserted into the nuclear fuel, the rods stop the fission process, shutting down the reactor.

Core - The central part of a nuclear reactor that contains the nuclear fuel.

Dose - The amount of radiation received by the body.

Emergency Core Cooling System - A series of back-up emergency systems designed to pump thousands of gallons of water into the reactor core to cool the fuel.

Exposure - Receiving radiation. Being in contact with or close to radioactive material will result in exposure.

Fission - The nuclear process in which a heavy atom, such as uranium, splits into two or more lighter aioms.

Fission Products - Lighter atoms formed after a heavy atom, such as uranium, is split.

. Fuel Assemblies - A collection of rods that contain the nuclear fuel pellets which produce heat to make steam used to generate electncity.

Fuel Pellets - Thimble-sized uranium oxide pellets used in nuclear power generation.

Each pellet contains about the same amount of energy as that produced from burning one ton of coal. A modem reactor core, such as the Oconee plant, contains up to 10 million pellets.

Fuel Rods - Hollow tubes 12 feet long that contain stacks of uranium oxide fuel pellets. .

These rods are bundled together to form fuel assemblies.

- ' Half-life -- The time required for a radioactive substance to lose one-half its radioactivity. Half-life can vary from minutes to years, depending on the substance, Millirem - The unit used to measure radiation dose to humans. It is 1/1000th of a REM.

REM stands for Roentger: Squivalent Man, a measure of radiation that indicates potential effect on human cells.

Radioactivity - The property possessed by some elemer9 that gives off energy in the form of particles or waves. Radiation may be alpha, beta oi g,amma.

Reactor Trip - The situation in which control rods are quickly inserted into the fuel core of the reactor. This stops the fission process.

.  : Here are four classifications used to describe a nuclear power plant problem or emergency condition. You should know these terms. Duke Power would contact federal, state and local authorities in each of the following situations.

1 An Unusual Event is the least serious of the four classifications. It means there is a minor problem at the station. Because of strict federal regulations, a number of problems are reported as unusual emnts even though they pose no danger to the public.

2 An Alert is an event that could reduce the plant's level of safety. There would still be no danger to the public. County and state officials and Duke Power would get emergency operation centers ready in case the situation got worse.

3 A Site Area Emergency is an event that could involve major problems with plant systems. The sirens would be sounded and other means of notification readied. The public should listen to emergency broadcast stations for information and instructions.

4 A General Emergency is the most serious of the four classifications. State and local authonties would take action to prctect the public. Emergency broadcast stations would give information and instructions. People in affected areas would be advised to stay indoors or to evacuate.

M;tscEng A major accident at Oconee could expose people nearby to levels of radiation higher

%,73 3]; . ' than background levels. Exposure to very high levels of radiation 'can make you sick. In extreme cases it can be fatal. For that reason, plans are made to protect you from exposure.

g

- p"": g "u". y State and local governments have guidelines about when people should be protected

.U from radiation. These guidelines call for protective actions at levels far below those that ZUCMS can make you sick. You would be told to protect yourself if radiation levels at or above those, guidelines,were expected.

There are two things you might be told to do:

1 Stayindoors.

2 Evacuate.

Sometimes staying indoors is safer than evacuating. Emergency officials wdl know which is better. Do as they say.

- 'fou Night 3e if you are told to stayindoors: ,

The Catawba Nuclear Station uses steam to generate electricity. Steam pushes against the blades of a turbine to turn them. As the turbine spins, it turns a generator. The generator produces electricity.

Since Catawba is a nuclear station, it uses uranium as its fuel. Uranium atoms can be

- split apart. This process is called nuclear fission. When the atoms split, heat and fission products are produced. The heat is used to make steam. Some of the fission products are radioactive. The plant is designed to keep this radiation inside.

Here's how it works:

\ / 4 57 6 8 There are three separate systems of water at Catawba. Water in one system doesn't touch water in another system.

The first system is the primary water system (shown in green). It circulates around the nuclear fuel, calle I the core (1).

As it flows through the reactor (2), it heats to about 600' F. Because this water is under

~- very high pressure, it does not boil. The amount of heat pmduced in the reactor is controlled by control rods (3). The reactor shuts down when the control rods are lowered.

The heated primary water next flows through u-shaped tubes h the steam generator (4).

There it gives off its heat to water (dark blue) - the secondary water system. The primary water system is then pumped back to the reactor to be heated again. ,

Water in the secondary system is changed to steam (light blue) in the steam generator.

The steam spins a turbine (5) connected to an electric generator (6) and produces electricity. As the steam leaves the turbine, it falls on pipes (7) carrying cooling water in the third system (yellow). This water comes ' rom the cooling towers (8).

As the steam hits the outside of the pipes, it is changed back to water. It is then pumped to the steam generator to be heated to steam again. The steam heats the water inside the pipes. Before it can be used again, it must be cooled in the cooling towers.

Radiation is energy. Radar, radio waves, ultraviolet (sun) rays and X-rays are common forms of radiation.

Radiatiori is all'around us. It is in the air we breathe, in the food we eat and in our homes.

It is even in our bodies. These sources of radiation are combined and called background radiation.

In addition to natural background radiation, there is also man-made rad;ation. It comes from such things as medical and dental X-rays and treatments. Very small amounts of radiation come from the normal operation of nuclear power plants.

There are three types of radiation that could be found in a nuclear power plant: alpha particles, beta particles and gamma rays. Alpha particles are the least penetrating. They can be stopped by a sheet of paper. Beta particles can be stopped by a thin sheet of metal. Gamma rays are the most penetrating. But they can be stopped by concrete or lead.

Radiation is measured in units called millirem. The average person receives about 180 millitem of background and man rnada radiation a year. Each year we get more radiation from natural sources than we get from an operating nuclear plant. The chart on the next l page shows how much radiation we get from different sources. You can see an operating _ i' nuclear power plant adds very little to the amount of radiation we get.

If there were a major emergency at Catawba, people near the plant might be exposed to levels of radiation higher than background levels. Exposure to very high levels of radiation may make you sick and in extreme cases, it may be fatal. For your protection, follow the instructions on the emergency broadcast stations in your state.

Unborn babies and children up to age six are more likely than others to be harmed by f radiation. Early precautions might therefore be ordered }or pregnant women and very young children.

Evidence shows radiation doses of 25,000 to 50,000 millirem do not cause permanent health problems. To be extra careful, protective actions would be ordered at much lower levels. This would assure you and your family extra protection from damaging levels of radiation.

Chain Reaction - The point in the fission process at which the production of neutrons in the reactor core is self-sustaining.

Cold Shutdown - The nuclear reactor is shut down and the temperature in the primary system is less than 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

Contamination - Loose radioactive materials in unwanted places such as on the skin or on clothes. It can usually be removed by simple cleaning.

Control Rode - Rods made of material that absorbs neutrons. When inserted into the nuclear fuel, the rods stop the fission process, snutting down the reactor.

Core - The central prart of a nuclear reactor that contains the nuclear fuel.

Dose - The amount of radiation received by the body.

Emergency Core Cooling System - A series of back-up emergency systems designed to pump thousands of gallons of water into the reactor core to cool the fuel.

,, Exposure - Receiving radiation. Being in contact with or close to radioactive material will result in exposure.

Fission - The nuclear process in which a heavy atom, such as uranium, splits into two or more lighter atoms.

Fission Products - Lighter atoms formed after a heavy atom, such as uranium, is split.

Fuel Assemblies - A collection of rods that contain the nuclear fuel pellets which produce heat to make steam used to generate electricity.

Fuel Pellets - Thimble-sized uranium oxide pellets used in nuclear power generation.

Each pellet contains about the same amount of energy as that produced from burning one ton of coal. A moderr) reactor core, such as the Catawba plant, contains up to 10 million pellets.

Fuel Rods - Hollow tubes 12 feet long that contain stack: of uranium oxide fuel pellets. '

These rods are bundled together to form fuel assewifolies.

• Half-lifea The time required for a radioactive substance to lose one-half its radioactivity. Half-life can vary from minutes to years, depending on the substance.

Millirem - The unit used to measure radiation dose to humans. It is 1/1000th of a REM.

REM stands for Roentgen Equivalent Man, a measure of radiation that indicates potential

, impact on human cells.

Radioactivity - The property possessed by some elements that gives off energy in the form of particles or waves. Radiation may be alpha, beta or gamma. ,

i Reactor THp - The situation in which control rods are quickly inserted into the fuel core of the reactor. This stops the fission process.  ;

- Here are four classifications used to describe a nuclear power plant problem or i emergency condition. You should know these terms. Duke Power would contact federal.,

!' state and local authonties in each of the following situations.

1 An Unusual Event is the least serious of the four classifications. It means there is a minor problem at the station. Because of strict federal regulations, a number of problems are reported as unusual events even though they pose no danger to the public.

2 An Alert is an event that could reduce the plant's level of safety. There would still be no danger to the public. County and state officials and Duke Power would get emergency operation centers ready in case the situation got worse.

3 A Site Area Emergency is an event that could involve major problems with plant systems. The sirens would be sounded and other means of notification readied. The public should listen to emergency broadcast stations in their state for information and instructions.

4 A General Emergency is the most serious of the four classifications. State and local authorities would take action to protect the public. Emergency broadcast stations in your state would give information and instructions. People in affected areas would be advised to stay indoors or to evacuate.

u . ~. .. . .

if there were an accident at Catawba Nuclear Station, it is not likely everyone within the 10-mile area would be affected. The areas affected would depend on weather conditions and how serious the accident was.

Look at the map on page 12 of this booklet. You will see the 10-mile area around Catawba Nuclear Station is divided into zones. Find the zones cheo you live, work, and/or go to school. This way you will know if you are M the area affected by an emergency. For example, residents in zones A-0 and A 1 might be told to stay indoors.

Others might not be affected.

Next tum to the chart on pages 13 and 14. Find the shelter for your zone. Locate it on the map of shelters on page 15. This is where you would go if there were an evacuation.

Record this information on the removable card on page 17.

If there were an emergency at Catawba Nuclear Station, Duke Power would immediately tell state and county officials. These officials would tell you if any action was needed.

To warn Wu of an emergency, county officials would sound sirens around the station.

Sirens will sound for at least 15 minutes in an emergency. (A test of the sirens lasts three minutes or less.) The sirens can also be used to notify you of a storm or other emergency i

in the area.

Turn on your radio or tv immediately. Tune to one of the emergency broadcast ,

stations in your state. The emergency broadcast systems in North and South Carolina are different. These stations would give you information and tell you what to do. If you hear no message on radio or tv, call pur county's emergency management office. The phone number is listed on the inside front cover. It may have been a siren test.

To ensure that the sirens are in working condition, they will be tested regularly. These tests will last three minutes or less. The testing is a part of normal maintenance and no public action is necessary.

Remember: Hearing a siren does not mean you should evacuate.

~

2 -- In case of'an emergency" fire, police and re'scue units would also patrol the affected areas and sound their sirens. Boaters would also be alerted.

The emergency broadcast stations for the area around Catawba are:

A major accident at Catawba could expose people nearby to levels of radiation higher than background levels. Exposure to very high levels of radiation can make you sick. In extreme cases it can be fatal. For that reason, plans are made to protect you from exposure.

State and local governments have guidelines about when people should be protected from radiation. These guidelines call for protective actions at levels far below those that can make you sick. You would be told to protect yourself if radiation levels at or above  !

those guidelines were expected.

There are two things you might be told to do:

1 Stayindoors.

2 Evacuate.

Sometimes staying indoors is safer than evacuating. Emergency officials will know which is better. Do as they say.

If you are told to stay indoors:

1 Stay indoors until you are told it is safe to go out.

2 Close all windows and doors. Turn off fans, air conditioners, hest pumps, and heating <

systems, which bring in outside air.

3 Go to a basement if possible. If you don't have a basement, go to a downstairs room in the center of the house. it should be a room without windows or outside doors.

4 Listen to a local radio or tv emergency broadcast station in your state. They will tell you i what to do.

5 Water, milk and food supplies will be checked for radiation. Radio and tv stations will tell you if these are not safe.

i-if you are ordered toleam the area:. .

' 1 Do not try to take all of your things with you. You could be away from home for a few hours or a few days.

3 Tum off appliances and faucets. Lock all windows and doors.

3 Get into your car or other vehicle. Close all windows and vents. Drive to your shelter and register. You rnay stay at the shelter. Or after you register, you may stay with friends -

or.relatiws out:sde the protective action zones, it is important to go to the shelter because:

(a) You could be checked for radioactive particles, if any radioactive material was found on you, it would be washed off. This is called decontamination. It is done by changing clothes and showering. It is important to be decontaminated to reduce

radiation exposure to yourself and others.

(b) Local emergency management officials would need to know who has evacuated.

They would also need to know where you are so you could be contacted.

4 Note that pets would not be allowed at the shelters. Leave food, water and shelter for your pets and livestock, You may take pets if you don't plan to stay at the shelter after registering.'

5 The South Carolina Emergency Preparedness Division and the North Carolina Department of Agriculture have published special brochures concerning livestock and crops. Residents of either state may request a copy by contacting their county agriculture -

extension agent.

Look at the map and protective action zones chart on pages 12,13 and 14 to find your exit route. Routes would also be announced on radio and tv. Police would direct traffic during an evacuation. if possible, use car pools in your neighborhood to limit traffic.

DRIVE SAFELY.

If you are ordered to evacuate, you must first go to your designated shelter. The shelter for your area is listed on pages 13 and 14. You may stay at the shelter where the following services would be provided:

- 1 Food, water, medical help, showers and toilets.

2 People from service organizations like the Red Cross.

3 Decontamination facilities,if necessary.

1 Two changes of clothing.

2 Two blankets or'a sleeping bag for egch person.

3 Important personal papers.

4 ' Toilet articles (soap, toothbrush and toothpaste).

8 Personal medications and prescriptions.

6 Special baby formulas or food.

7 Battery operated radio, flashlight and batteries if you or members of your family cannot drive or do r-ot have transportation, continue to listen to an emergency broadcast station in your state for information. These stations would tell you where you could be picked up in an emergency.

If you are blind or handicapped and need transportation, tum to the inside front cover for additional information. It is important that your local emergency management officials know how to reach you.

There is an emergency plan for school children in the area around Catawba Nuclear Station.

. In an emergency, school officials would be contacted by local emergency management officials.

• If an evacuation were ordered, all children would be b .'ssed to the pick up point (York' County) or shelter (Mecklenburg and Gaston counties) for their school. All pick up points and shelters are more than 10 miles from the plant.

. Parents could meet their children at the pick up point (York County) or shelter (Mecklenburg and Gaston counties). Children in York County not picked up by their -

_. parents would be moved to the shelter for their school.

~

~ = Adults woiald care for t'he children until parents ar'ived r at the pick up point or sh'e ter.

• Parents thould pick up students at shelters or pick-up points only. Do not go to the schools. This would help avoid delays.

. It is important for parents to know what zones their children's schools are in. To find out,look at the list on page 16.

. To find the pick up points and shelters for your children's schools, look at the list on page 16 and the map on page 15. For some schools, the pick-up point and the shelter are the same. Wnte the shelters for your children's schools on the removable card on page 17.

If your children are ever left home alone, you should tell them what to do in an emergency.

Be sure they know what zone they are in.

Mru McGu!i9 The McGuire Nuclear Station uses steam to generate electricity. Steam pushes against M 3 't 33 the blades of a turbine to turn them. As the turbine spins, it turns a generator. The l '

r. 3..,,.;...,

. . .. generator produces electricity.

Since McGuire is a nuclear station, it uses uranium as its fuel. Uranium atoms can be split apart. This process is called nuclear fission. When the atoms split, heat and fission products are produced. The heat is used to make steam. Some of the fission products are radioactive. The plant is designed to keep this radiation inside.

Here's how it works.

h 12 4 57 6 There are three separate systems of water at McGuire. Water in one system doesn't

. touch water in another system.

The first system is the primary water system (shown in green). It circulates around the

- nuclear fuel, called the core (1). -

As it flows through the reactor (2), it heats to about 600* F. Because this water is under very high pressure, it does not boil. The amount of heat produced in the reactor is controlled by control rods (3). The reactor shuts down when the control rods are lowered.

The heated primary water next flows through u-shaped tubes in the steam generator (4).

There it gives off its heat to water (dark blue) in the secondary water system. It is then pumped back to the reactor to be heated again.

Water in the secondary system is changed to steam (light blue) in the steam generator.

The steam spins a turbine (5) connected to an electric generator (6) and produces electricity. As the steam leaves the turbine, it falls on pipes (7) carrying cooling water in the third system (yellow). This water comes from Lake Norman.

As the steam hits the outside of the pipes, it is changed back to water. It is then pumped to the steam generator to be heated to steam again.

f;Cy,,, Radiation is energy. Radar, radio waves, ultraviolet (sun) rays and X-rays are common forms

, of radiation.

Radiation is all around us. It is in the air we breathe, in the food we eat and in our homes. It is even in our bodies. These sources of radiation are combined and called background radiation.

In addition to natural background radiation, there is also man-made radiation. It comes from such things as medical and dental X-rays and treatments. Very small amounts of radiation come from the normal operation of nuclear power plants.

There are three types of radiation that could be found in a nuclear power plant: alpha particles, beta particles and gamma rays. Alpha partcles are the least penetrating. They can be stopped by a sheet of paper. Beta partcles can be stopped by a thin sheet of metal. Gamma rays are the most penetrating. But they can be stopped by concrete or lead.

Radiation is measured in units called millirem. The awrage person receives about 180 millirem of background ar.d man-made radiation a year. Each year we get more radiation from natural sources than we get from an operating nuclear plant. The chart on the next page shows how much radiation we get from different sources. You can see an operating nuclear power plant adds very little to the amount of radiation we get.

If there were a major emergency at McGuire, people near the plant might be exposed to levels of radiation higher than background levels. Exposure to very high levels of radiation may make you sick. For your protection, follow the instructions on the emergency broadcast stations.

Unbom babies and children up to age six are more likely than others to be harmed by radiation. Eariy precautions might therefore be ordered for pregnant women and very young children.

Evidence shows radiation doses of 25,000 to 50,000 millirem do not cause permanent health problems. To be extra careful, protectrve actions would be ordered at much lower

. levels. This would assure you and your family ext?. protection from damaging levels of radiation.

Nuclear Terms Chain Reaction - The point in the fission process at which the, production of neutrons in the reactor core is ceif-sustaining.

Cold Shutdown - The nuclear reactor is shut down and the temperature in the primary o system is less than 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

Contarpination - Loose radioactive materials in unwanted places such as on the skin or on clothes. It can usually be removed by simple cleaning.

Control Rods - Rods made of material that absorbs neutrons. When inserted into the nuclear fuel, the rods stop the fission process, shutting down the reactor.

Core - The central part of a nuclear reactor that contains the nuclear fuel.

Dose - The amount of radiation received by the body.

r

. Emergency Core Cooling System - A series of back up emergency systems designed to pump thousands of gallons of water into the reactor core to cool the fuel.

FvP=e - Recemng radiation. Being in contact with or close to radioactiw material will result in exposure.

Fission - The nuclear process in which a heavy atom, such as uranium, splits into two or more lighter atoms.

Fission Products - Lighter atoms formed after a heavy atom, such as uranium, is split.

Fuel Assemblies - A collection of rods that contain the nuclear fuel pellets which produce heat to make steam used to generate electricity.

Fuel Pellets - Thimble-sized uranium oxido pellets used in nuclear power generation.

Each pellet contains about the same amount of energy as that produced from burning one ton of coal. A modern reactor core, such as the McGuire plant, contains up to 10 million pellets.

Fuel Rods - Hollow tubes 12 feet long that contain stacks of uranium oxide fuel pellets.

These rods are bundled together to form fuel assemblies.

J.. Half-life - The time required for a radioactive substance to lose one-half its radioactivity.

Half life can vary from minutes to years, depending on the substance.

Millirem - The unit used to measure radiation dose to humans. It is 1/1000th of a REM.

REM stands for Roentgen Equivalent Man, a measure of radiation that indicates potential

~

, impact on human cells.

• Radioactivity - The property possessed by some elements that gives off energy in the form of particles or waves. Radiation may be alpha, beta or gamma.

Reactor THp - The situation in which control rods are quickly inserted into the fuel core of the reactor. This stops the fission process.

l- Emergency Here are four classifications used to describe a nuclear plant emergency. You should know i

Classifications these, terms. Duke Power would contact federal, state and local authorities in each of the following situations.

1 An Unusual Event is the least serious of the fo'ur classifications. It means there is a minor problem at the station. Because of strict federal regulations, a number of problems-are reported as unusual events even though they pose no danger to the public.

2 ' An Alert is an event that could reduce the plant's leel of safety. There would still be no danger to the public. County and state officals and Duke Power would get emergency openaiOi centers ready in case the situaton got worse 3 A Site Aree Emergency is an event that could involve major problems with plant systems. The sirens would be sounded and other means of notification readied. The public should listen to emergency broadcast stations for information and instructions.

4 A General Emergency is the most serious of the four classifications. State and local authontes would take action to protect the public. Emergency broadcast stations would give information and instructions. People in affected areas would be advised to stay indoors or to evacuate.

. ~. . .

1.0Cating if there were an accident at McGuire Nuclear Station, it is not likely everyone within the 10-mile area would be affected. The areas affected would depend on weather conditions w.7

' " ' nn. ~

and how senous the accident was.

Look at the map on page 12 of this booklet. You will see the 10-mile area around McGuire Nuclear Station is divided into zones. Find the zone where you live, work, and/or go to school. Write it on the card on page 15. This way you will know if you are in the area affected by an emergency. For example, residents in zones L, B, M and C might be told to stay indoors. Others might not be affected.

Next turn to the chart on page 13. Find the shelter for your zone. Locate it on the map of shelters on page 14. This is where you would go in an evacuation. Record this information on the removable card on page 15.

HOW WCuld ] If there were an errepprcy at McGuire Nuclear Station, Duke Power would immediately tell state and county officials. These officals would tell pu if any action was needed.

3e Told licutAn- To warn you of an emergency, county officials would sound sirens around ttie station. l Sirens would sound for at least 15 minutes in an emergency. (A test of the sirens lasts three wyO

~" gg.lo "

minutes or less.) The sirens can also be used to notify you of a storm or other emergency 1

in tne area.

If you heer a siren, turn on your radio or tv immediately. Tune to one of the emergency broadcast stations. These stations would give you information and tell you what to do. If you hear no message on radio or tv, call your county's emergency management office. The phone number is listed on the inside front cover. It may have been a siren test.

To ensure that the sirens are in working condition, they will be tested regularly. These tests will last three minutes or less. The testing is a part of normal maintenance and no public action is necessary.

Remember: Hearing a siren does not mean you should evacuate. ,

V- In case of'an emergency, fire, police and rescue units would also patrol the affected areas f and sound their sirens. Boaters would also be alerted.  ;

M ;;, 1- A rnajor accident at McGuire could expose people nearby to level.s of radiation higher than

.: background levels. Exposure to very high lesels of' radiation can make you sick. In extreme cases it can be fatal. For that reason, plans are made to protect you from exposure.

~

State and local gomrnments have guidelines about when people should be protected from '

. radiaton. They call for protection at levels far below those that can make you sick. You

- - would be told to protect yourself if radiation levels at or above those guidelines were expected.

There are two things you might be told to do:

1 Stayindoors.

2 Evacuate.

Sometimes staying indoora is safer than evacuating. Emergency officials will know which is better. Do as they say.

, if you are told to stayindoors:

1 Stay indoors until you are told it is safe to go out.

- 2 Close all windows and doors. Tum off fans, air conditioners, heat pumps and forced-air heat, which bring in outside air.

3 Go to a basement if possible. If you don't have a bcsement, go to a downstairs room in the center of the house. It should be a room without windows or outside doors.

4 Listen to a local radio or tv emergency broadcast station. They will tell you what 'to do.

5 Water, milk and food supplies will be checked for radiation. Radio and tv stations will tell you if these are not safee

2 Tum off appliances and faucets. Lock all windows and doors.

3 Get into your car or other vehicle. Close all windows and vents. Drive to your shelter and register. You could stay at the shelter. Or after you register, you may stay with friends or relatnes living outside the protectiw action zones. It is important to register at the shelter because.

(a) You could be checked for radioactiw particles. If any radioactiw material was found on you, it would be washed off. This is called decontamination. It is done by changing clothes and showering. It is important to be decontaminated to reduce exposure to yourself and others.

(b) Local emergercy management officials would need to know who has evacuated.

They would also need to know where you are so you could be contacted.

4 Pets would not be allowed at the shelters. Leaw food, water and shelter for your pets and livestock. You may take pets if you don't plan to stay at the shelter after registering.

5 The North Carolina Department of Agriculture has pubiished a special brochure conceming livestock and crops. You may request a copy by contacting your county agriculture extension agent.

. Schools in the area around McGuire Nuclear Station have emergency plans for school C M d'en At9 . children.

In 3ChCCi? e ln an emergency, school officials would be contacted by local emergency management officials. .

• lf an evacuation were ordered, all children would be moed by bus to the shelter for their school. All shelters are more than 10 miles from the plant.

• Adults would care for the children until parents amve at the shelter.

. Parents should pick up students at shelters only. Do not go to the schools. This would help avoid delays. -

a lt is important for parents to know what zones their children's schools are in. To find out, look at the list below.

If your children ever spend time alone, you should tell them what to do in an emergency. Be sure they know what zone they are in.

Write the information about your chndren's schools on the card on page 15.
