Pace 7 of of Dacemoer 1988 1 I FEMA Findings and Determinations for the Seabrook Site 1. Introduction The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEM A) is responsible for reviewing, evaluating, and approving offsite radiological emergency plans and preparedness for commercial nuclear power plants. FEMA reviews offsite plans and preparedness against NUREG 0654/TE M A-R E P-1, Rev. I and/or NUREG 0654/ FEM A-R EP-1, Rev. 1, Supplement 1, which are the joint criteria of FEMA and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). FEMA's Findings are provided to the NRC pursuant to 44 C.F.R. S 350.3(e), S 350.3(f), S 350.12(b)(2), or the FEMA /NRC Memorandum of Understanding of April 1985. The purpose of FEMA's Finding is to provide a statement on whether reasonable assurance exists that the public health and safety of the citizens living in the vicinity of commercial nuclear power plants can be protected in the event of an incident or accident at the nuclear power plant. I A. Identification: 1. Facility. The Seabrook Nuclear Power Station (SNPS) is located in Seabrook, New Hampshire. The licensee is the New Hampshire Yankee Electric Company, an electric utility jointly owned by utility organizations serving the six-state New England Region it is located on a peninsula two miles inland from the Atlantic Ocean, forty miles north of Boston, Massachusetts and eleven miles south of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. I 2. Governments in the Plume EPZ. Two states are affected by the plume emergency planning zone: New Hampshire, including Rockingham County and the Towns of New I ) I I

See Figure 1. Table 1 Table 2, and Table 3. I l 3. Governments in the Ingestion EPZ. Three states are affected by the ingestion emergency planning zone: New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts. See Figure 2. 4. Response Orfanir.stion. The State of New Hampshire's lead agency for directing the State's emergency response efforts is the New Hampshire Office of Emergency Management (NHOEM). The NHOEM will work closely with other state agencies to assess the potential and/or actual consequences of an incident and to direct the State's and local governments' response efforts. The State is responsible for tmth the pl'ume and Ingestion emergency planning zones. he State of McIne's lead agency for directing the State's emergency response efforts is the Maine Emergency Management Agency (MEMA). ) [ The MEMA will work closely with other state agencies to assess the potential and/or actual consequences of an incident and to direct the State's and local government's response efforts. The State has the responsibility for the ingestion emergency planning zone. ] }

Page 11 of 66 D2cembar 1980 5 The State of Massachusetts had participated in the planning efforts until the fall of 1986 when a decision was made to withdraw cooperation and participation in the preparedness efforts for the Seabrook site. l The New Hampshire Yankee Division of the Public Service Company of New Hampshire (NHY) formed the Offsite Response Organization (ORO) and prepared the Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities (SPMC) to compensate for the lack of participation and cooperation from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The NHY ORO is responsible for assessing the potential and/or actual consequences of an incident. The SPMC has been developed under the conct?t of realism and the set of assumptions set forth in the NRC regulations ?'O C.F.R. Part 50). This concept and assumptions are based on the prinelple that State and Peal officials will respond in the event of an incident at a nuclear power plant. Under this principle, the NHY ORO will ascertain the manner and function in which the State and local governments of Massachusetts will commit resources, facilities, equipment, and staff to implement the response efforts. The NHY ORO, based upon this determination of Massachusetts response efforts, will commit all or portions of its response capabilities (personnel, resources, equipment and faellities). The NHY ORO has responsibilities for both the plume and ingestion emergency planning zones in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. } B. General Backrround: 1. Plans. The State of New Hampshire's plan is entitled "The State of New Hampshire Radiological Emergency Response Plan"(NHRERP). It was ] ]

Page 13 of' 6 6 - D2cember 1988 7 2. Special Circumstances. Geographical and Meteorological features. The State of New Hampshire roughly resembles a right triangle. The longest axis of the triangle is on the west side and measures approximately 190 miles north to south. The eastern apex of the State is the Atlantic Ocean. The State's frontage on the Atlantic is 18 miles of which 12 are within the Seabrook station plume emergency planning zone. This seacoast frontage is lined with beaches. The plume EPZ extends approximately 8 miles into Massachusetts. I The State of Massachusetts is bordered by the State of New Hampshire on the north, by the State of New York on the west, by the States of Connecticut and Rhode Island on the south, and by the Atlantic Ocean on the east. The Appalachian Mountains cut across ' western Massachusetts, forming a natural barrier between the western third of the State and the j eastern two-thirds. The eastern portion is characterized by low hills and valleys. I The climate of the emergency planning zone is typical of New England. It is characterized by cold winters and warm summers. The average snow fall is in excess of 75" per winter and the total annual precipitation is approximately 40 inches. Winter temperature extremes are tempered by the relatively warmer water and summer temperatures are moderated by a sea breeze. Precipitation amounts are uniform throughout the year, with an occasional heavy rainfall during a northeast storm. The site is not usually subjected to the full-strength of east coast hurricanes. Such storms I I

.Page 14 of 66' December 1988 usually move either offo re or inland before they reach the Seabrook latitude. On an annual basis the dominant wind direction is from the north-northwest. During the fall and winter, winds from the west through the northwest directions account for 50 to 60 percent of the winos. This peak is reduced in the spring to 30 to 40 percent due to the increased occurrence of northeast winds, usually associated with storms moving up the coast. Winds are more evenly distributed during the summer with an increased incidence of east to southeast sea breezes, especially during daylight hours. Southwest and west-southwest winds also occur more frequently .I during the summer. I 3. Socio-Economic Factors Table 1 presents population data for each plume exposure EPZ com-munity. Table 2 presents population data by Emergency Response Planning Area (ERPA). Table 3 presents t'he assignment of each community to an ERPA. New Hampshire's chief manufactured products are electric and electronic products, machinery, plastics, fabricated metal products, instrumentation, footwear, and other leather goods. Nurseries and greenhouse products, lawn products, and hay yleid about 55 percent of the farm income,. Vegetables, apples, poultry, and home products add another 25 percent. Berries are an expanding crop most often made available through pick- .I your-own operations. Forests cover 86 percent of the land area. The chief commercial minerals are sanc and gravel, building granite, feldspar, and mica. I I

December 1982 Maine's chief industry is forestry products. Lumber, pulp, and paper operations are located throughout the State. Woolens and woven cotton goods are the other major industry. Potatoes are Maine's largest crop af ter timber. Maine is among the three top producing potato states. The cultivation of hay, peas, oats, beans, apples, and blueberries are the other major crops. Lobster, flounder, haddock, herring, mackerel, and perch are caught in large numbers in the coastal waters. Maine produces one fourth of the nation's feldspar as well as sand, gravel, stone, mica, copper, zine, and peat. I Massachusetts'. five lecding manufacturing industries, based upon employment figures, are machinery, electric and electrical equipment, instruments, and related products, fabricated metal products, and printing I I 1 and publishing. About 13% of the land is suitable for agricultural purposes. Commercial crops include potatoes, oats, hay, tobacco, orchard fruits, eggs and dairy product, and cranberries. Among the minerals, sand, gravel, and building stone are significant industries. Massachusetts' fisheries rank first among the New England States in commercial value. Cod, flounder, haddock, halibut, mackerel, tuna, and scallops s e the primary species that are harvested and processed by Massachusetts' fisheries. I I C.

The State has made provisions for incorporating expected federal radiological resources and nontechnical I assistance. I I I

Page 21 of 66 I December 1988 15 D. Emergency Classification System (Planning Standard D): A standard emergency classificat;on and action level scheme, the bases of which include facility system and effluent parameters, is in use by the nuclear facility licensee, and State and local response plans call for reliance on information provided by facility licensees for determinations of minimum Initial offsite response measures. .I. The State has incorporated the standard emergency classification level (ECL) and action level (EAL) schemes into its Plan. The bases for the ECLs and f ALs include the faellity's system and effluent parameters. The State's Plan calls for reliance on information provided by the facility for determinations of i minimum initial offsite response measures. 1 E. Notification Methods and Procedures (Planning Standard E): Procedures have been established for notification, by the licensee of State and local response organizations and for notification of emergency personnel by all response organizations; the content of initial and followup messages to response organizations and the public has been established; and means to provide early notification and clear instruction to the populace wit.hin the plume exposure pathway EmerTency Planning Zone have been established. I The State has established procedures for the notification of the State by the licensee. The State has established procedures for the notification of the local communities. Procedures : lave been developed for the notification of emergency personnel by all response organizations. The content of initial and followup messages to response organizations and to the public has been established. The State has established means to provide early notification and I I

M Page.22 of 66 B DGcemser 1988 16 clear instruction to the populace within the plume exposure pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). The Alert System, consisting of some 94 E fixed sirens, is established and operational. The proposed Alert System for NHY ORO and the - Alert System for the State of New Hampshire have been submitted to FEMA for review and approval. The Seabrook Alert and - Notification System design has met the design requirements of FE M A-R E P-10. When the proposed enhancements to the alert and notification system for the New Hampshire portion of the Seabrook plume EPZ are installed and operable. FEMA will find the alert and notification system adequate. In the FEMA graded exercise, June 28-29, 1988, the State demonstrated the ability to alert, notify, and mobilize its emergency response personnel. The State demonstrated the ability to provide early notification, develop public instruction, ' deliver the public instruction to the Notification System, and simulate the activation of the Alert System. I F. Emettency Communications (Planning Standard F): Provisions exist for prompt communications among principal response organizations to emergency personnel and to the public. The State has established the means and has made provision for prompt communications between and among the principal response organizations, to emergency personnel, and to the public. The State's procedures call for prompt and continued communications between and among the principal l response organizations, to emergency personnel, and to the public. Compatible primary and backup communication systems exist between and among the New I I

Pace 23 of 66 December 1988 Hampshire Yanken Emergency Operations Facility, and the Emergency Operation Centers (EOCs) of the States of New Hampshire and Maine and the NHY ORO. Cc mpatible primary and backup communication systems exist I between the State EOC and the local community EOCs. Appropriate and compatible communication systems exist for use in the field. I The FEMA graded exercise demonstrated the adequacy and compatibility of the communication systems that exist between and among the threr i!sponse organizations, to emergency personnel, and to the pub!!c. G. Public Education and Information (Planning Standard G): Information is made available to the public on a periodic basis on how they will be notified and what their initial actions shall be in an emergency (e.g., listening to a local broadcast station and remaining indoors), the principal points of contact with the news media for dissemination of information during an emergency (including the physical location or locations) are established in advance, and procedures for coordinated dissemination of information to the public are established. The State's Plan contains commitments for an annual distribution of educational material to all residents within the plume EPZ. The Region has reviewed the educational material prepared by the State of New Hampshire for the plume EPZ. The Region has reviewed the educational material prepared by the State of New Hampshire for the ingestion exposure EPZ. The Region has found the public educational material for the plume and ingestion EPZs to be adequate.

Pace 53 or 66 I December 1988 A-5 INGESTION PATHWAY EPZ (50-mile EPZ): For planning purposes, the area within approximately a 50-mile radius of a nuclear plant site. The principal exposure from this pathway would be from the ingestion of contaminated water or foods. l(I - POTASSIUM IODIDE: A stable form of iodine taken orally to prevent the uptake of radioactive iodine by the thyroid. MEDIA CENTER: A facility operated by the licensee for the coordinated release of information to the public via the news media by utility and offsite authority spokespersons. MICROCURIE: See Curie. I l MILLICURIE: See Curie. t MILLIREM: See Rem. MILL! ROENTGEN: See Roentgen. p MONITORING, RADIOLOGICAL: Locating and measuring radioactive contamination on individuals or in an area. MS-1 HOSPITAL: Hospitals trained and capable of treating members of the general public who may be injured and/or considered to have substantial radiation related injuries, or who may have been exposed to and contaminated by radioactive materials. NHY OFFSITE RESPONSE ORGANIZATION (NHY ORO): The New Hampshim Yankee .g Offsite Response Organization has been developed in recognition of, and to compensate .g for, the fact that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the local Massachusetts municipalities located within the Plume Exposure Emergency Planning Zone for Seabrook Station currently are not participating in radiological emergency planning. .I NOTIFICATION SYSTEM: The hardware and sof tware system used to deliver a warning message (public instruction) to the public within the plume EPZ. Examples are EBS radio station; NOAA radio; sirens /public address system that allows voice transmission; and vehicles with public address capabilities (i.e., message and means of delivery). I OFFSITE RESPONSE ORGANIZATION (ORO): The ut!!ity offsite emergency respotise organization comprised of other part!cipating voluntary and private organizations, and local, State, and Federal Governments engaging in the development of offsite emergency plans and preparedness for a nuclear power plant. OPERATIONAL: The EOC/ EOF / Media Center / Assistance Center / Emergency Worker I Center / Laboratories, etc., are fully staffed and capable of performing all emergency functions assigned to that facility. I;

December 198g A-6 PLUME EXPOSURE EPZ (10-MILE EPZ): For planning purposes, the area within approximately a 10-mile radius of a nuclear plant site. The principal exposure sources I from this pathway are: (a) whole-body exposure to gamma radiation from the plume and from deposited radioactive material, and (b) inhalation exposure from the passing radioactive plume. PROTECTIVE ACTION GUIDE (PAG): The projected radiological dose, or dose commitment levels at which protective actions should be initiated. PROTECTIVE ACTIONS (pas): Measures taken in anticipation of, or in response to, a release of radioactive material to the environment. The purpose of pas is to provide dose savings by avoiding or minimizing the radiation exposure received by individuals, I thereby minimizing the health risks resulting from radiation exposure. Sheltering and evacuation are the two pas which are relied upon for limiting the direct exposure of the general public within the plume exposure EPI. Preventative and emergency pas are two l categories of pas which will be relied upon for limiting exposure from contaminated food and water in the ingestion exposure EPZ. PUBLIC INSTRUCTION: Instructions (warning messages) that are Protective Action Recommendations for the public. Instructions should be given by a public official and delivered directly to the public via the notification system (e.g., EBS radio). Message l content and timeliness are very important. Messages should be repeated by the notification system at least every 15 minutes until updated by public authorities. If applicable, rblic instructions should be coordinated with other authorities. PUBLIC INFORMATION: Information delivered to the media via press conferences, interviews, technical briefings, printed media releases, and telephonic distribution of printed releases. Information should be current, accurate, and timely. All printed I releases shocid be coordinated with other authorities before distribution to the media. Ideally, information released in news conferences, briefings, and interviews should be coordinated before releue. If pre-coordination does not occur, then posc-notification to I other authorities of critical points discussed in interviews, conferences, etc., should occur. RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN: A detailed pian which coordinates and describes the emergency response organizations, responsibilities, and capabilities of State or local governments, utilities, and private organizations to ensure pub!!c health I and safety during an emergency situation in which there is a potential for radiological release. RECEPTION CENTER: A predesignated facility outside the Plume Exposure EPZ at which the evacuated public can register; receive assistance in contacting.others; receive directions to congregate care centers; reunite with others; and receive general information. RECOVERY: The actions taken to restore the affected area as nearly as possible to its pre-emergency condition. 'B I

Page 55 of' 66 i Docomber 1988 A-7 REENTRY: The provisions for the return of the public af ter evacuation, when the radiation risk has been reduced to acceptable levels. RELEASE: Escape of radioactive materials into the environment. REM: Acronym for Roentgen equivalent man. The unit of dose of any lonizing radiation that produces the same biological effect as a unit of absorbed dose of ordinary x-rays. Millirem: One-thousandth (1/1000) of a Rem, abbreviated mR or mrem. RESTRICTED AREA: Any area to which access is controlled for the protection of i l individuals from exposure to radiation and radioactive material, ROENTGEN: The international unit of X radiation or gamma radiation that is the i amount of radiation producing under ideal conditions in one cubic centimeter of air at 0*C and 760 millimeters mercury pressure ionization of either sign equal to one electrostatic unit of charge. SCENARIOS: Time-based simulations of emergency events postulated to allow the demonstration of response capabilities. SPECIAL FACILITY: Institution or location normally occupied by a population that may

g require special consideration concerning the implementation of protective action

.W recommendations (e.g., hospitals, schools, nursing homes). .g SURVEY METER: A portable instrument used in radiological monitoring to detect and

g raeasure ionizing radiation.

I THERMOLUMINESCENT DOS! METER (TLD):A dosimetry badge used to measure exposure to lon! zing radiation. It is characteristic of thermoluminescent material that radiation produces internal changes which cause the material, when subsequently heated, to give off a measurable amount of light directly proportional to the radiation dose. THYROID EXPOSURE: Exposure of the thyroid gland to radiation from radioactive I isotopes of iodine which have been either inhaled or ingested. TRAFFIC CONTROL: The directing of traffic from a specific area to primary evacuation routes. Road barriers and cones are used to assist traffic control. I traffic-controlled area may include all or part of the Plume Exposure EPZ, or may be The established to control and monitor a restricted area. I TRANSIENT POPULATION: Individuals who do not permanently reside in the Plume Exposure EPZ but may be present during an emergency. I VERIFICATION OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: Exercise inadequacies identified in previous exercises / drills for which the organizations have agreed to implement corrective actions. II I I
