The Design Report presented the rated sound-level output of each of the I: v1 ' three models of strens employed in the Seabrook Station EPZ. Appendix B
'of the DesignLReport contained Wyle Test Reports 88-4 and 88-9(R);that presented the field measurement data demonstrating the rated siren outputs.
Wyle has reviewed Test Report 88-4 and has provided clarification of the procedures utilized for establishing the sound level rating of the Whelen WS-4000 siren. The siren rating is defined as the maximum C-weighted sound. level at a horizontal distance of 100 ft from the center of, and on the nominal axis'of symmetry of the siren, with the siren at a height approximating the final mounted configuration in the community. Test Report 88-4 presents the measurement data obtained during an evaluation of the siren on March 25, 1988, to obtain data regarding optimum operation frequency, drive level, vertical directivity, and the on-axis sound level rating of the siren. Eleven sets of measurements were conducted; these data'are summarized in Table 1 of Test Report 88-4. The tests were conducted with the microphone connected to a tape recorder and extending 4 to 5 ft above the bucket of a bucket truck locatef se that che bucker was 100 ft from the siren center. Tests A through F were coeducted at a
'1w drivee power level to obtain siren directivity data. The report states'that Tests G through S w6re conducted with the siren driven at full level and the microphone positioned on the siren axis. However, there were uncertainties in both these conditions not addressed in the report. The test configuration did not permit precise verification of driver power or microphone position.
2-2
g , _ _ _ . W y / !s , f' N - LHen'ce,'the~ measurements did.not consistently reflect'the maximum siren. j (3 s){ l sound:levelIrating.;
> . To ~ establish the siren rating, final on-axis tests were conducted by 4
an engineer and technician in the bucket using a hand-held precision-
' sound level meter (Larson-Davis 800 set.to C-weighting, slow). ~This test'is identif'ied as "on-axis" in Table 1 of Test Report 88-4. .For>
v h the single unit, thel level measured in.the bucket truck was.129.3 dBC n at'550 Hz; therefore, the siren sound level rating for the single unit j
'was~ established'at 129-dBC. For the dual WS-4000, the measured'on-axis sound level'was'135-dBC.: In order'to'be conservative, the-siren sound llevel rating was established at 134 dBC at-550 Hz for the dual unit.
These final siren sound level ratings are specified on page' 2 of Wyle. n;.
- Test l Report 88-4. These test results provide a valid basis for the i b s'iren ratings and were utilized for preparation of the siren coverage i maps, Figure:2-1 and Figure 2-2.of the Design Report.

Rev.'1*[4]:
"The maximum sound levels received by any member of the public should be lower than ;
123 dBC, the level which may cause di&- comfort to individuals." i The VANS dual WS-4000 siren produces its rated output along the siren ] I system centerline at a distance of 100 feet from the siren. For sirens elevated abovc ground level this sound level is produced at a
< distance 100 feet from the siren at the height of the siren centerline 2-3 ;

[ , level). Since there are no permanent structures (except at the staging areas'themselves) at-or within 100 feet of the preselected ! siren locations it is not possible for any member of the public to be subjected to a sound pressure level of 134 dBC (unless of course, they were elevated, by some means to a height of 45 feet above ground level). Based on data measured on the ground near the prototype dual WS-4000 sirens and the single Whelen WS-4000 siren a near field
. directivity model' has been established for the dual WS-4000 in a vertical plane. Utilizing this model, it has been determined that
.with the siren 25 feet above ground level, the maximum sound level at'5 feet above the ground (i.e., at ear level) is 131 dBC which ,
occurs about 90 feet from the siren. With the siren at the normal operating height of 45 feet above ground level, the maximum level at 5 feet above the ground is 124 dBC which occurs about 200 feet from the siren. If the siren is activated at the 25 foot height, it will be in the process of being elevated to 45 feet. The' siren elevates from 25 feet to 45 feet in less than 60 ceconds. As the siran elevates, the scund pressure levels on the ground decreaJe (e.g., the soucd pressw a 1cvel at 90 feet from the siren decreases from 131 dBC to 122 dBC and i' the sound pressure level at 200 feet decrences from 127.5 dEC to 124 dBC; in less than 60 seconds).

- Tables 1 and 2 included in Attachment T,.
Transit time data has now been collected under~a variety of road conditions, including clear roads, heavy summer weekend traffic, rain and darkness. The results of the test runs show that for acoustic locations VL-02 through VL-15 the transit times are well below the ten minute goal except for.two anomalous runs which are explained'in the table. For' acoustic location VL-01 the two studies showed that 92 of 98 runs were completed within 10 minute's. Two anomalous runs occurred because of a fireworks display and a dump truck blocking the road. Four runs on summer weekends exceeded 10 minutes. In order to ensure that the transit times to acoustic location VL-01 are below ton minutes on summer weekends, New Hampshire Yankee has arrsnged for a satellite staging area within a 0.6 mile travel distance. This short distance will ensure that the transit time can be accomplished in .less than ten minutes. This satellite staging ar'ea will be manned with a driver and a VANS vehicle from early evening Friday to late evening Sunday dering the period from May 15 to September 15. The satellite staging area will also be manned on Memorial Day, July Fourth, and Labor Day.

(' New Hampshire Yankee has recently completed an analysis of the portions
.of the 60 dBC siren sound level' contours for Massachusetts' and New :
Hampshire sirens which lie over the Atlantic Ocean. f I l The siren sound'1evel prediction model used for the calculation of sound contours was described in detail in Wyle Research Report WR 88-9, contained in Appendix B of the Design Report. The Wyle model uses as one of its input parameters an identifier describing the nature of the ground surface over which the acoustic propagation occurs. .This parameter tells the program which e.. ess. ground attenuation algorithm-to use in the sound level calculation. At the t'ime the original computations of siren sound level contours
'L 9 were carried out, only the land portion of the coverage was of immediate interest. Thus, to simplify data input, the land coverage identifier was used for all radials - even those which extended predominantly over water. As a result, the sound level contour envelopes which were included in Figures 2-1 and 2-2 of the Design Report do not properly depict the coverage over the Atlantic Ocean.
Wyle has now computed, using a ground attenuation algorithm appropriate for water, the portions of the 60 >BC contours for the Massachusetts and the New Hampshire ofrens which lie over the Atlantic Ocean. Siren coverage maps, labeled Figures 2-3 and 2-4, depicting " the revised "over ocean" contour envelope are included as Attachment C. These drawings replace the Atlantic Ocean portion of the coverage M' depicted in Figures 2-1 and 2-2 of the Design Report. l 2-11 !
~
l l 1 Since there is a possibility that some VANS sirens may be activated
.-n T .
> at=a height of 25 feet,.during the process of being elevated to- z 1
maximum height, the computer model was also used to calculate the' { sound level coverage for each VANS siren location at that lower height. An analysis of the calculated'70 dBC and 60 dBC contours for both activation heights,for each VANS location indicated that, on the average,_the sound levels at the predicted contours would vary by less than one dBC for activation at the lower height and would return to the full predicted level'within one minute as the siren was raised to full height. i Although a height of 45 feet for' siren activation was used as the , basis for the sound coverage analysis for the Design Report, the actual siren height achieved by the VANS vehicle is approximately 51 i feet. This additional six feet of siren height wil1~ result in greater coverage than that' calculated for a siren height of 45 feet because the sound will encounter lower barriers along the projected path. Calculations have also been performed to estimate the sensitivity of predicted sound level coverages to changes in acoustic location. These calculations indicate that generally, if a VANS vehicle is parked within 400 feet of the assigned acoustic location the calculated 60 dBC contour will vary by less than one dBC. O 2-12

1.0 INTRODUCTION
' An ambient noise: survey _ 'was conducted by Wyle Research within the '
Massachusetts _ portion of the Seabrook Station Emergency Planning Zone'(EPZ) between July.17 and July 23,- 1988. The purpose of the survey was to verify' that the predicted siren sound levels in areas within the EPZ but outside the 60 dB(C)
. siren coverage could be expected to receive a siren _ signal 10 dB greater tharFthe average daytime ambient sound level. ~ The criteria for the measurement program
'Is set forth in Section E.6.2.1 of FEMA-43/ September 1983: -
"In ' addition, should the design report choose to show that the siren sound level exceeds an avera daytime (period
.between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m.) ge measured outdoorambient sound level (s) .
3 ' map . . . must include appropriate siren sound level contours for the SPL that is 10 dB 'above the average outdoor daytime ambient sound
. level (s). The ambient background noise level should be measured in that one-third octave band (s) containing the predomiesnt tone (s) of the siren (s) used."
The Massachusetts measurements were made within four geographic areas where stren sound level contours were predicted to be less than 60 dB(C). In'accordance with FEMA guidance, the L50 statistical level is used to characterize the ambient background noise. 2.0
SUMMARY
OF SURVEY RESULTS The highest average hourly ambient background level in each of the four areas and the predicted siren sound level coverage for these areas were developed through the procedures presented in this report.

g,, +- g 3.0 STUliY AREAS / MEASUREMENT SITES ( , The dmbient noise' survey was conducted within'four geographical areas in ' 'l the Massachusetts portion of the Seabrook Station EPZ that are not subjected to at least 60 dB(C) of siren system coverage. These areas, with identified measurement , y, locations, are depicted in Figures 1. through 4. L Each area ' was . inspected on . 14-15 3uly'1988 and the major noise sources identified. Since most of the study F areas are unpopulated, the major sources of noise were: rustling of leaves in the
\ .
wind, rain-related noise, occasional traffic .on . nearby local roads, and steady
' traffic on more distant highways.'
'For each area,' a Primary measurement site was chosen a,f a location expected to experience the highest ambient noise levels in the area. One or more W' Secondary measurement sites . were chosen in . each study; area to provide' an
,', estimate of the spatial variation.of ambient levels within the area. -(For two areas, P- : measurements 'at a Secondary Site indicated ambient levels slightly higher than at k L the Primary Site.) The' specific rationale ,for the choice of each site and the site
' descriptions are presented in the following paragraphs.
Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, Newbury This area lies .along Plum Island Road at the Newbury/Rowley corporate boundary, is located approximately 9.8 miles south-southwest of Seabrook Station, and comprises an area of approximately 0.08 square miles. The area does not have permanent residents but receives an influx of tourists during the daylight hours and is closed after dark. Normal access to the area is restricted to the road only. This area is controlled by the U.S. Department of the Interior and receives supple-1 mental institutional alerting. The Primary measurement site in the study area.is east of the Plum Island ) Road at a point approximately 750 ft south of the intersection of that road with !- the North Pool Dike. The major source of noise at this point is vehicular traffic on the road and occasional boat traffic on local waterways. O wm LASORATORES 2
AJ Secondary $lte (5 )[is located approximately 600 ft southw t of the 3
.f~ ~ Primary Site at a stone marker defining the Newbury/Rowley corporate boundary. .
- This' point is '300 ft. west of Plum Island Road. Another Secondary Site (S 2 ) I'
' located approximately 600 ft: northeast of the Primary Site'at a point midway between Plum' Island- Rosa and the eastern shoreline. Although the public is normally'not allowed access to 'either of these Secondary Sites, they do represent-1 typical off-road locations in the study area.
South Face of Crane Neck Hill in West Newbury This area is located approximately 11 miles southwest of Seabrook Station, comprises an area of approximately.0.32 square miles, and is bounded on the north p by Crane Neck Hill, on the south by the EPZ boundary, on the east by a dirt road, and on the west by Georgetown Road, The area on the south side of the hill is Isolated and uninhabited. The Primary measurement site in this study area is located at pole No. 270 along the MECO' power ilne right-of-way south of Forrest Street in Byfleid. 'It is the closest point in the study area to Main Street and approximately 2,600 it west of Interstate 95. Vehicular traffic noise from these roads makes this the worst-case location in the study area. A Secondary Site (S~g) is located 30 ft to the east of a Jeep. trail at a point 600 ft south of the intersection of that trail with Forrest Street. This is the closest site in the study area to Forrest Street. Occasional vehicular traffic along Forrest Street (a dirt road near this location) is the principal source of noise at this site. .Another Secondary Site (5 ) is located 50 ft east of the Jeep trail at a site 2 approximately 400 ft south of the other Secondary Site. The noise environment at this site is representative of the central portion of the study area. West Newbury. West of Route 113 and South of Pleasant Street This area is located approximately 11.2 miles southwest of Seabrook Station and comprises an area of 0.10 square miles, lies on the west side of a hill, and L extends to the Merrimack River. The area lies to the south of Pleasant Street in j West Newbury. The area is currently uninhabited but under development. l The Primary measurement site in this study area is located 400 ft north of a brook between two meadows at a stone fenceline 300 ft from the Merrimack River.

,.[] . This represend the noise environment along th'e westernmost edge of the study C' area. Since construction is currently taking place in the study area (the noise from which is teriporary), this site was chosen as the most distant possible from the construction noise sources. Its noise environment should be typical of that of the study area when construction has been completed. A Secondary Site (51 ) is located in the constructwn area at a point 50 ft east of the newly-paved road at the base of Gunner Hill. Another Secondary Site (52) is located approximately 600 ft southeast of Route 113 across from Pentucket Regional Junior High School. This site represents a small, nearby, noncontiguous area approximately 3,200 ft south-southwest of the main stt ;y trea. Parish Road Newbury This area is a small triangle to the east of Interstate 95, located approxi-mately 11 miles from Seabrook Station, and comprises an area of approximately 0.02 square miles. The area is bounded on the west by Larkin Street and on the south by the EPZ. The Primary Site is located 20 ft n' orth of Parish Road at a point 20 ft east
'O d of MECO power pole No. 8. This site represents the noise environment at the
' ~
center of the are'a. It was the noisiest case since there is an unobstructed exposure to Interstate 95. A Secondary Site (Sg ) is located 30 ft north of Parish Road at a point midway between MECO power poles No.12-5 and 12-6. Another Secondary Site (5 ) is located 50 ft north of Parish Road at a point 20 ft west of the stream which 2 flows under the road. This point represents the noise environment at the eastern edge of the study area. The noise environment at all three sites is generated by vehicular traffic on Interstate 95 and on Parish Road. In addition, construction noise from a garage being built north of Parish Road between the Primary and Secondary (5 ) Sites could be heard. 2 4.0 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES The ambient noise measurement procedure was designed to establish the L50 ' for the 500 Hz one-third octave band (i.e., the band containing the dominant siren frequency) for the daytime period (7 a.m. to 10 p.m.). Continuous data was acquired at the Primary Site and shorter duration sample measurements were WYLE LA40AATORWS

, obtained at' the Secondary Sites. The procedure was In accordance with" the p,
Q
. following steps:
Primary Site Measurements
' I. A Larson-Davis LD 700 sound level meter was set up'on a. 4 ft mast -
and programmed to continuously record the A-weighted sound pressure' level. The data was stored internally in the form of hourly statistics-(L ,q, Lg, L10' L50' '90)- De' Purpose of this measurement was to obtain a continuous record of the A-weighted L 50 I 'V*I* j
-2.- A Larson Davis Mode 1800 sound level meter was set up adjacent'to the LD 700 at the Primary Site. - This unit filtered the level in the
~
-l 500 Hz one-third octave band and transmitted the data to a (second)
LD 700 which stored the data in terms of the hourly statistics (see
. Section 5); this data was subsequently used to establish the average difference between the A-weighted and the. one-third octave band sound level.
For the Parker River and Parish Road measurements, a B&K M; ' Model 2231 sound level meter with a Model 1625 filter set was used in N . 5 place of the LD 800. ~ This unit was set to measure the full octave rather than the one-third octave band. Consequently, a correction factor of 5 dB has been applied to the octave band data to account for the reduction in sound level between octave and one-third octave i bandwidths. This is a highly conservative correction; analog tape back-up records for the site indicate a much larger difference between the full octave and one-third octave levels at both locations. ) Secondary Site EMasurements
- 1. A LD 700 was set up at each of the Secondary Sites during measure-ment periods of between 2 to 8 hours continuously. This unit stored the hourly statistics of the A-weighted sound levels.
- 2. A Nw IV S3 precision tape recorder was used to take periodic .
1 20-ndnute broadoand analog recordings at both the Primary and l Secondary Sites. [. ._ Intermittent rain was encountered at all measurement areas throughout the survey. This condition frequently interrupted the acquisition of data. v m. .. m 5 4

l 5.0 DATA ANALYSIS AND PRESENTATION ,V fl . L Data from the-field survey was analyzed at Wyle's El Segundo, California,' facility. Tables'1/ through .4, present the results. of - the ambient noise survey; Figures 1 through 4 are maps of each area identifying measurement sites and the adjacent siren contours, o , The first column (in each table) Identifies the measurement date. It. f was sometimes necessary to combine data from two or more days to - obtain a complete 15-hour daytime period. ; o- The second column Identifies the measurement period. ' All data are presented in terms of L50 levels over 1-hour periods. ! 4. o ' The third column depicts the L f the A-weighted levels measured 50 at the Primary Site. o The fourth column gives the measured L level in the 500 Hz one-50 third octave band. - o The fifth column 1s the difference between the A-weighted and one-third octave band measurements.
- , O d'_
o- The last two columns depict the A-weighted L 50 levels at the
' Secondary measurement sites.
o The arithmetic average for all the noise level values is indicated at the bottom of the columns. Some hours were deleted from.the data base due to insufficient data generally caused by poor weather conditions. o As stated, the primary objective of the survey was to obtain the L50I " the 500 Hz band for the 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. period. These figures are given at the bottom of each table. The ambient level for the Primary Site is therefore based on a continuous direct measurement. The average ambient level for the Secondary Sites is obtained by subtracting the average difference between the two measurements of the A-weighted level and the 500 Hz octave band level at the Primary Sites and applying it to the Secondary Sites. , 1 i I wvu LA40AATOf145 6

1.0 INTRODUCTION
. An ambient noisd' survey was conducted by Wyle Research within the New
,jj i Hampshire ' portion: of the Seabrook Station Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ)
' between ' July 25 'and July 28,1988. The purpose of the survey was to verify that ")y ' the predicted siren sound levels in areas within the EPZ but outside the 60 dB(C) ~
siren coverage could be expected to receive a siren signal 10 dB greater than the average daytime ambient sound level. The criteria for the measurement program [ f .j
' is' set' firth in Section E.6.2.1 of FEMA-43/ September 1983:
"In' addition, should the design report choose to show that the siren sound level exceeds an avera between 7 a.m. and' 10 p.m.) .
ambientge measured sound outdoor level (s) by.10 daytime dB, the (period' map . . .' must include appropriate siren sound level contours for the'
'SPL that is 10 dB above the average outdoor daytime ambient sound level (s). The ambient background noise level should be measured in that one-third octave band (s) containing the predominant tone (s) of the siren (s) used."
The New Hamps' hire measurements were made within three geographic areas where . stren sound levels were predicted to be less than 60 dB(C). In accordance with~ A . FEMA guidance, ' the L50 statistical level is used to characterize the average
'.N ' ambient background noise.

SUMMARY
OF SURVEY RESULTS The highest average hourly ambient background level in each of the three
, areas and the predicted siren sound level coverage for these areas were developed through the procedures presented in this report. The results of the study are i summarized below:

- v u r. ,
A Based on the results of this survey, the average ambient background levelin each - _ ) area is expected to be more than 10 dB below the predicted minimum siren sound level for the area. 3.0 STUDY AREAS / MEASUREMENT SITES The ambient noise survey was conducted within three geographical areas in the New Hampshire portion of the Seabrook Station EPZ that are not subjected to at least 60 dB(C) of siren system coverage. These areas, with identified measure-
~
ment locations, are depicted in Figures I through 3. Each area was inspected on 14-15 July 1988 and the major noise sources identified. Since most of the study areas are unpopulated, the major sources of noise were: rustling of leaves in the wind, rain-related noise, occasional traffic on nearSy local roads, and steady traffic on more distant highways. For each area, a Primary measurement site was chosen at a location expected to experience the highest ambient noise levels in the area. One or more Secondary measurement sites were chosen in each study area to provide an
.; estimate of the spatial variation of ambient levels within the area. The specific
() s rationale for the choice of each site and the site descriptions are presented in the
~ -
following paragraphs. Southwest Triangle of Kingston This area is approximately 13.6 miles west-southwest of Seabrook Station and comprises an area approximately 0.03 square miles. It is bounded on the south by Route 121 A (North Main Street) in Plaistow, New Hampshire. This area is isolated and uninhabited. The Primary measurement site in this study area is 50 ft from the east side of Route 121 at the Plaistow/Hampstead town line. The major noise sources are heavy vehicular traffic on Route 121 and a nearby tree service (chainsaw cutting) ; i contributed significantly to the daytime ambient noise level This site represents I the worst-case situation.
\
A Secondary measurement site (51) is located 1,500 ft northwest of the l l l l Primary Site. This position marks the midpoint of the far side of the triangular l study area. I't represents a point in the study area farthest from Route 121. (- k/ M= ^ * " " ! 2
@k4( Q? ll (% s Rock Rimmon Hill. Kingston f(~y , aQ ' Rock Rimmon Hill and the area to the north and south are at the western J ,r
' edge of the EPZ, approximately 12.5 miles west-northwest of Seabrook Station.
pp The area is approximately 0.21 square miles and starts south of a road from
.x Kingston in the east to Danville in the west. This road itself is populated and. i q receives' 60 dB(C) coverage. Rock Rimmon Hill is accessible by: Rock Rimmon l ; Road,'a dirt road to the north and then south by the access road to.the lookout .
tower. The lookout tower itself lies outside the EPZ. so
. The Primary measurement site in this study area is on a small plateau'(at a 1 220-ft elevation) at the end of a dirt road leading from .Old Mill' Road to. the
' southeast side of Long Pond. This point is the closest in the study area to Long 7
Pond and to Old Mill Road. Vehicular traffic on that road. and an occasional motorboat on Long Pond are the principal sources of noise in the study area. A' Secondary measurement site (SI) is located 50 ft east of utility pole No.1852 along the dirt access road from Rock Rimmon Road to the lookout tower on Rock Rimmon Hill. This site is centrally located in the study area. Another - [.L ESecondary measurement site (52) is located 50 ft north of utility pole No.1840
'i ' along Rock Rimmon Road. This point in the study area is the closest to Chase i cStreet which is approximately 2,900 ft north of the site.
~
l Newsfields, North of the Squamscott River L: This area is approximately 10.7 miles north-northwest of Seabrook Station and . is triangular in shape, comprising approximately 0.04 square miles. The northern base of the triangle borders on Boston and Maine Railroad. The peak of the triangle extends along a power transmission line right-of-way. The entire area lies to the east of Route 108 and New Street. A field inspection along the railroad tracks and the power transmission line right-of-way verified that the area was uninhabited. The Primary measurement site in this study area is located 10 ft south of j the centerline of the Boston and Maine Railroad tracks at a point approximately 900 ft east of the New Street overpass. It is the point in the study area that is closest to New Street and to Route 108. The noise from vehicular traffic on these nearby roads make this the worst-case location in the study area.

>c . . - ;Q - tracks at a point 900 ft east of the Primary Site'(at the point at which north-south l power lines cross 'the railroad tracks). This well-defined location is at the midpoint L. of the'. northern edge of the triangular study area and is approximately' 900 ft
' '~ southwest of New Road. Another Secondary Site (S2) is located at the southern apex of the study area at the second pole north of the point at which the north-south power line . changes direction to northwest-southeast. This point is approxi-- mately 750 ft northwest of a campground just east of Newfields Cemetery. 4.0 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES The ambient noise measurement procedure was designed to establish the L 50 for the 500 Hz one-third octave band (i.e., the band containing the dominant siren frequency) for the daytime period (7 a.m. to 10 p.,m.). Continuous data were acquired at the Primary Site and' shorter duration sample measurements were obtained at the Secondary Sites. The procedure was conducted in accordance with the following steps: Primary Site Measurements D' -- - , 1. A Larson-Davis LD 700 sound level meter was set up on a 4 ft mast
; andfrogrammed to continuously record the A-weighted sound pressure .)
' level. The data was stored internally in the form of hourly statistics (L ,q, L g, L10' L50' '90). The purpose of this measurement was to obtsin a continuous record of the A-weighted L 50 I*V'I*
- 2. For the Kingston Triangle and Rockrimmon areas, a Larson Davis Model 800 sound level meter was set up adjacent to the LD 700 at the Primary Site. This unit filtered the level in the 500 Hz one-third octave band and transmitted the data to a (second) LD 700 which stored the data in terms of the hourly statistics (see Section 5). For the Newfields measurements, a Bruel& Kjaer Model 2231 Sound Level Meter with a Model 1625 Filter was used in place of the LD-800.
These data were subsequently used to establish the average difference between the A-weighted and the one-third octave band sound level at the sites measured. O vmm LA80RMOR8E8 h __i_.i______._______.___._.__________._.

- I
- facility.. Tables 1 - through 3 present the results of the~ ambient noise survey; Figures 1: through 3 are maps of each area identifying the measurement sites and j the adjacent siren contours. ,
1 o j The' first column (in Table I through 3) Identifies the measurement . ;
^ date. It was sometimes necessary to combine data from two or more
' days to obtain a complete 15; hour daytime period.
L, . . o The second column identifies the measurement period. All data are presented in tarms of L50 levels over 1-hour periods.
; -o The . third column depicts the L f the A-weighted levels measured 50 at the Primary Site.
o The fourth column 'gives the measured L level in the 500 Hz one-50 third octave band for the Primary Site. Due to weather-related measurement problems, only limited data were obtained at two of the geographic areas. The data-for the Kingston Triangle were derived from the analog tape recordings. All data were determined to be I sufficient for estimating the L50 of the 500 Hz one-third octave band.
' o The fifth column is the difference between the A-weighted and one-third octave band measurements.
o The last two columns list the A-weighted L50 leveh at te Secondary measurement sites. wm _____.__.______________________.______________._m_ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ . _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . . - _ , _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

- the bottom of the columns. Some hours were deleted from the data
((]' - base due , to insufficient data generally caused by poor ~ weather conditions. o . As stated previously, the primary objective of the survey was to obtain the L 50 h the 500.Hz band for the 7 a<m. to 10 p.m. ' period. These
. figures are given at the bottom of each table. . The ambient level for the Primary Site is therefore based on a continuous direct measure - ~~~
ment. The average ambient level for the Secundary Sites is obtained
- by subtracting the average difference between the two measurements of the A-weighted level and the 500 Hz octave band level at the Primary Sites and apply.'.ng it to the Secondary Sites.

h, . ATFIDAVIT OF DAVID N. KEAST !
'I,_ David N. Kaast, being on. oath, depose and say as
'follows:
- 1. I am the owner and principal consultant of Warning System Services, Carlisle, Massachusetts. A l statement of my professional qualifications is attached hereto and marked "A".
- 2. The purpose of this affidavit is to supply j
- information pertinent to the allegation in Contention Basis A.7 regardintf hearing damage to anyone within 100 feet of the siren during its operation.
6
,y., f
- 3. In: response to Interrogatory No. 241, the Attorney General indicated that the basis for contention I
- Basis" A.7 is " Appendix 3' (at 3-8)' of NUREG-0654, FEMA-REP-1" which-states: 1 x "The maximum sound levels received by any member of l the-public should-be lower than 123 dB, the level' l which may cause discomfort to individuals."
i
~
This 123 dB limit is taken from the 123 dB limit recommended to avoid hearing damage in FEMA publication' number CPG 1-17, which source ~.is cited on.pp. 3-8, 3-9 (twice), 3-10, 3-11 and 3-12 of Appendix 3 of NUREG-0654.
- 4. I am the principal author of CPG 1-17, which I wrote under United States Government Contract No. DCPA-01 C-0329 while an employee of Bolt Baranax and Newman, Inc.
(BBN) in'the early part of 1979. I wrote CPG 1-17 to be a simple, non-technical " practical guide for public officials" , i such as fire chiefs planning to install a fire siren.
- 5. As the author of CPG 1-17, I derived the 123 dB limit "to assure that no person is likely to be subject to a sound level great enough to cause hearing damage" (CPG 1-17,
- p. 8). The background document to CPG 1-17, BBN Report No. ,
1 3-4100, which I also prepared and which is also cited on pp. I 8 of Appendix 3 of NUREG-0654, points out that I chose the 123 dB limit from Figure 3 of Karl D. Kryter, Hazardous 1 " Massachusetts Attorney General's Response to First Set of Interrogatories Regarding the Massachusetts Attorney General's Amended Contention of Notification System", dated July 12, 1988. l
L m-
/ Ernosure to Intermittent and Steady-State Noise", Report of i , N s) .
Working Group (WG) 46, National Academy of Sciences - National Research Council (NAS-NRC), Committee on Hearing, 1' " . Bioacoustics, and Biomechanics, January 1965. (This is referred to below as the "Kryter WG-46 Report".) The 123 dB limit applies to an almost daily exposure over about 10 years l to 1-1\ minutes or less of a 1000 Hz tone.
- 6. Considering the wide usage and lay readership which I contemplated for CPG 1-17, 123 dB is appropriate as a general purpose limit. As indicated in BBN Report 4100, one thousand Hz "...is the highest fundamental frequency produced by any outdoor warning device... identified." Many communities briefly sound their fire sirens or horns once a
() day, such as at noon. Maintaining levels below 123 dB near the grou,nd is easy to achieve with suitable mounting of any of tho sirens or horns on the market in 1979.
- 7. Thus, the 123 dB limit was considered a safe upper limit which would protect the public regardless of the frequency, duration or number of soundings. The goal of the 123 dB criterion was to provide a safe notification system.
This goal may also be achieved by varying other aspects of . the design and use of the siren system.
- 8. In fact, I have reviewed the results of Dr.
Kryter's analysis of a 123 dB exposure to the sound from a
U non-rotating siren operated for 3/1.52 minutes at 1000-Hz. D 'kJl This siren system, contemplated by NUREG-0654, would' affect the average person's hearing iar causing a temporary threshold shift at 2 minutes after exposure (TTS2) of 18/12 dB. This effect would be Einor and l'ast only a short time. 9.- For' comparison, Dr. Kryter also did a
~ ~
calculation of the 134 dB rotating siren at 25 feet sounded for 3 minutes at 550 Hz, this being the' siren system to be used by the VANS as detailed in Louis Sutherland's affidavit and which I have personally inspected. This system will cause.neither permanent hearing loss nor temporary threshold shift as determined by Dr. Kryter.
- 10. Further, a document provided by the Massachusetts Attorney General is consistent with the
[ } In a letter dated May 5, 1988,
. conclusion of Dr. Kryter.
Gregory C. Tocci informed Mr. Steven Jonas of the Massachusetts Department of the Attorney General of the results of a discussion with Dr. Joseph Sataloff. With reference to the short-term exposure to VANS emergency
- warning sound levels as high as 132 dBA, Dr. Sataloff stated, "that the likelihood of possible hearing damage under these circumstances was not significant." (Copy of letter attached and marked "B".)
2 Three minutes duration per NUREG-0654; One and one-half minutes duration per BBN Report 4100. j i _ - _ _ _ _ - - _ . _ - - - - - - - - - l
f':[ Thus, the VANS siren system is;a safe means of (;
.l 11.
notifying the public in terms.of potential hearing damage, and in my opinion meets'the safety criteria intended by NUREG-0654. (

Dear Steve,
About.2 weeks ago we discussed the possibility of hearing damage associated with short term exposure to VANS emergency warning , sound levels as.high as a 132 dBA. At that time I indicated that I even a single incident of brief exposure to sound this loud could f 1 result' in permanent- hearing damage.- I also mentioned that ! E available- criteria- for: permanent hearing threshold- shifts, as .{ v hearing ~ dam'ge a is most commonly referred, are only available for the-work" place where sound level exposure occurs on a day to day basis. I also mentioned that we would pursue this further with Dr. Joseph Sataloff, M.D. who is a well know11 expert in' this area. Tom Bouliane of our office discussed this matter with Dr. Sataloff who responded with the attached. letter dated April 29, 1988. Since his letter was rather vague with respect to criteria for: hearing damage associated with single brief exposures to high .
. sound levels, I called Dr. Sataloff to discuss this further. Dr. 1 Sataloff was more specific when I spoke with him and indicated !
that there are currently no available criteria upon which to base the likelihood of permanent hearing threshold shifts associated with single, brief exposures to levels as high as those expected to be produced by the VANS system. Moreover, Dr. Sataloff went t-further. to say that the likelihood of possible hearing damage under these circumstances was not significant. Hence, we believe that the Department of Attorney General comments regarding hearing damage of the general populace resulting from the VANS system should emphasize the need for prudence in the use of the system and ask for clarification on procedures for avoiding excessive exposure.

327'T Boston Post Road . Sudbury. MA 01776 Dear.Mr. Boulianet Thank you for letting me review the information describing the VANS system proposed to alert listeners to a threat to their safety. First I would preface my comment that the technical
.. methods used for this alarm are somewhat surprising. There has been so much experience in the United States and London to alert '
individuals to air raids. I have seen much more effective systems and I somewhat wonder about this rather strange idea.
'If the ears of human beings are exposed to over 120 decibels (dB) over pe,riods of time from a loud speaker system, there can result bigh frequency sensorineural hearing loss both temporarily .t p]
and permanently. I do not believe the damage can be severe but it can definitely be present and has been recorded in instances from ' exposure.to rock and roll music of such lesser intensity, but probably longer duration.
- If such'an alarm system goes off during sleeping hours, it may ;
not damage hearing quite' as much because individuals are a i greater distance away. However. it can have a rather disturbing shock ~ experience and I feel certain that there are other ways to resolve the situation besides this type of loud speaker system.
. Thank you very much. I will be pleased to discuss it in greater detail with you. I Very sincerely.

.! occurs' to pure-tone hearing sensitivity in the quiet as the ,
result ofLlong-term exposure to intense sound.and noises. tThe' basis'for.these results come from threshold measurements-L made, for the most part, on men who have been exposed to-noise in industrial environments and the military services. Technical standards and guidelines have been developed.on the basis of NIPTS data that specify the apparent risks-to hearing from' exposure to occupational noises. In general, NIPTS is the result of chronic, i.e., long term, exposures.

;The:Seabrook Emergency Notification' System (ENS) consists of fixed'and mobile sirens positioned throughout the Emergency Planning Zone-(EPZ).
Two typesfof sirens are employed in thel alert and notification system
.s for,Seabrook Station. They are Whalen Model WS-3000 and Whalen Model WS-4000. !
Whelen Model WS-3000 is an oscillating very-high-power. electronic siren i 9 1 rated'at,123:dBC. .The system is capable of functioning as a. siren or as [ a: powerful public address device. In the siren mode,'four signals can-be produced. The Civil Defense Alert Signal is a steady 550 Hz tone. y; The Civil Defense Attach Signal is a high-pitched 700 Hz to 970 Hz yj," warbling tone. The Wail Signal, is a 425 Hz to.970 Hz tone.that slowly dj '- varies. 'Hi-Low is a two-tone signal, 425 Hz and 641 Hz, alternating-every 0.75 seconds. The Hi-Low signal.is*only;available from'a remote
-encoder. A 425 Hz Air Horn signal is also available from a remote {
encoder.- Each WS-3000 siren is composed of a loudspeaker assembly and an electrical-cabinet-housing the power amplifiers, radio receiving unit,' decoder and control circuitry, and power supply.' The speaker section of each WS-3000 siren consists of a vertically-arranged array
'of' sixteen individual loudspeaker-drivers acoustically coupled to a single large horn. The loudspeaker drivers are fed by four power-g, amplifiers, each of which feeds four drivers. Input to tha power amplifier comes either from the tone-generator or the radio receiver, depending on which mode of siren operation is being used. Power to operate each siren is provided by two 12 volt, UPS-100 galled electro-lyte batteries located in the ele'etrical cabinet. Under normal opera-tion, the' batteries are kept fully charged by a battery charger powered from a single phase, 120 volt electrical service drop. In the event of a failure in the electrical distribution network, the batteries can supply power to maintain operation at full-power output for approxima-tely'30 minutes, or in standby (listening) mode for approximately 14 y .y days. To ensure full coverage by the siten, the speaker assembly is slowly oscillated back and forth through an angle of approximately 360*. The horn rotates in one direction, then reverses direction when, it reaches north, at a rate of about 3 RPM.

Under normal opera-tion, the batteries are kept fully charged by a battery charger powered from a-single phase, 120 volt electrical service drop. In the event of a failure in the electrical distribution network, the batteries can supply power to maintain operation at full-power output for approxima-tely 30 minutes, or in standby (listening) mode for approximately 14 days. To ensure full coverage by the siren, the speaker assembly is g , slowly osciliated back and forth through an angle of approximately 360'. The horn rotates in one direction, then reverses direction when it reaches north, at a rate of about 3 RPM. i 1

'p 1.0 OBJECTIVE '
. .j The purpose of this procedure is to perform the required testing and maintenance necessary to ensure continued operability of each WS-3000 Emergency Notification System (ENS) siren unit on an annual basis.
2.0 REFERENCES
2.1 FEMA Guidelines FEMA-REP-10/ November 1985 2.2 Whelen Installation Manual 3.0 DISCUSSION The Seabrook Emergency Notification System (ENS) consists of fixed and mobile sirens positioned throughout the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). Two types of sirens are employed 1.1 the alert and notification system for Seabro:k Station. They are Whelen Model WS-3000 and Whelen Model WS-4000. Whelen Model WS-3000 is an oscillating very-high-power electronic siren rated at 123 dBC. The system is capable of functioning as a siren ot as a rjowerful public address device. In the siren mova, four signals can-be produced. The Civil Defense Alert Signal is a steady 550 He tone.
. The Civil Defense Attack Signal is a high-pitched 700 Hz to 970 's ,- g ' warbling tone. The Wall Signal, is a 425 Hz to 970 Hz tone that sr 'ly -( ) varies. Hi-Low is a two-tone signal, 425 Hz and 641 Hz, alternating every 0.75 seconds. The Hi-Low signal is only.available from a remote ,
encoder. A 425 Hz Air Horn signal is also available from a remote encoder. Each WS-3000 siren is composed of a loudsparker assembly and an electrical cabinet housing the power amplifiers, radio receiving j unit, decoder and control circuitry, and power supply. The speaker section of each WS-3000 siren consists of a vertically-arranged array of sixteen individual loudspeaker-drivers acoustically coupled to a single large horn. The loudspeaker drivers are fed by four power-amplifiers, each of which feeds four drivers. Input to the power , amplifior comes either from the tone-generator er the radio receiver, ! depending on which mode of siren operation is being used. Power to l operate each siren is provided by two 12 volt, UPS-100 gelled electro- l lyto batteries located in the electrical cabinet. Under normal opera-
]
tion, the batteries are kept fully charged by a battery charger powered i from a single phase, 120 volt electrical service drop. In the event of l a failure in the electrical distribution network, the batteries can l supply power to maintain operation at full-power output for approxima-tely 30 minutes, or in standby (listening) mode for approximately 14 days. To ensure full coverage by the siren, the speaker assembly is slowly oscillated back and forth through an angle of approximately 360*. The horn rotates in one direction, then reverses direction when it reaches north, at a rate of about 3 RPM. (. s.j
ID0608.003 Pago 3 Rev.

The remote control system employed for the sirens uses a coded sequence
)
of tones broadcast over two radio channels. A dual-tone multi-frequency (DTMF) encoding scheme is used. The remote control unit at each state and local control point contains the encoder and radio transmitter used to generate and broadcast the DTMF codes. The electrical cabinet at each siren contains a radio receiver and tone decoder. The control cir-cuitry in each local cabinet constantly " listens" for the DTMF codes, and activates the siren after it has determined that the proper address a;.d control codes have been received. The control circuitry will auto-matica11y turn off the siren after three minutes of activation. The speaker can be remotely positioned in 90 and 45 degree increments. A sub-audible PL (Private Line) tone encoder / decoder scheme is used to prevent unauthorized activations. NOTE i Critical steps are indicated with an asterisk (*). As each critical step is performed, sign the space provided on the procedure data form. 4.0 ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA The data will be within the tolerance specified in the procedure and on the applicable data form. I&C supervision shall review the data obtained and sign on the space provided on the Repetitive Task Sheet. \,-) 5.0 PRECAUTIONS 5.1 Observe all applicable electrical safety rules. 5.2 The WS-3000 sirens are rated at 123 dBC. Extreme caution should be exercised when performing this test so as not to energize the unit at full volume.

i i GAPHR 1. BAG GROUtO/POLIC1 GUIDANCE [a] A. General. m ere are'nine nuclear plant sites within the jurisdiction h o of these plants are research of the First Coast Guard District. facilities (LRI and Schenectady), and two do not as yet have operating We have agreed to respond to emergency licenses (Seabrock and Shoreham). situations at all operating facilities through memorandums of understanding with appropriate state agencies. 1 i B. Statutory Responsibilities. Se Coast Guard does not have the l responsibility to respc6d to mitigate or investigate radiological incidents. Berefore there is no pre-designated "On-Scene Coordinator" as there is for oil or hazardous materials releases, m ese functions in a radiological incident are primarily the responsibility of the Department of DefenseItand/or can bethe Department of expected, Energy depending en the type of incident. however, that a radiological incitent at a coastal nuclear power plant , (NPP) will inpact cx1 the Coast Guard's traditional role of safety of life at sea. Further, the Coast Guard, under the authority of Title 14, USC, Part 141, is permitted to use its personnel and equiprent to assist state civil' defense authorities. The Department of ! Transportation sumarized its response mission to non-defense i emergencies in the November 8, 1985 edition of the Federal Register j (Vol. 50, No. 217, p. 46563). As an agency of DOT, it is anticipated that Coast Guard response actions in a NPP incident would be: .
- 1. Imediately notify mariners to warn of possible dangers.
nazardous areas.
- 2. Restrict marine traffic rrtu enterinu
- 3. Coordinate with and provice mtnrmation to other agencl'es.
- 4. Provide logistics supportand civil transportation assistance in non-hazardous areas.
C. General Responsibilities of Other Federal Agencies.
- 1. The Federal Dnergency Managenent Agency (FEMA) has the lead I responsibility for all off-site nuclear emergency planning and response. This agency is charged with establishing policy for and coordinating all civil emergency planning and assistance functions for federal agencies.
- 2. We U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Comissior. (NRC) is responsible for verifying that agaropriate energencv plans have been implemented and for conducting investigative activities associated with a radiological emergency.
- 3. h e U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is responsible for providing energency operations to assist state and local governments in protecting the healtn and safety of individuals, tne public,This andis the environment in the event of a radiological emergency.
(pj accomplished througn area Radiological Assistance Prograns (RAPS). Se RAP Plan which covers NPPs located in the First District was developed by DOE's Brookhaven, Long Island Area Office. 1-1
y ::- ' D. ~ Safety Policy. k
- l. Since Coast Guard personnel are neither equipped nor trained to enter areas where dangerous levels of radioactivity could pass -
through ordinary clothing or be' absorbed through inhalation,
' : ingestion, or skin contact, such actions are not warranted and 4
would not be in the public interest. To the contrary, exposure of Coast Guard personnel to dangerous levels of radioactivity would e only exacerbate,the situation by. increasing casualties and diminishing response resourms. Under no circumstances will (bast Guard personnel, vessels, aircraft, or vehicles be required or permitted to enter areas where radiation levels can reasonably be
' expected to'be a substantial health risk. Se District Commander should be consulted if any doubt exists as to the safety of a given situation. For basic; guidance, refer to 01 apter 12. Since radioactivity cannot _be seen, the only protection against exposure '
is.to be equipped with proper emergency xtes, radiacs, and dosimeters.that personnel are properly trained to use.
,2._htpresentthereisnospecificfundingorairectedtrainingin the area of radioactivity exposure protection. Therefore, no forces shall be deployed to enforce safety zones.or support lerf atics until the area of operaHnna has been tested for radiation levels'if a release has occurred. Given the. general nature of emergency situations, there may be significant delays in getting accurate-information concerning the extent of the
'O radioactivity problem. Until this'information is received, the , Coast Guard's primary actions should be to warn the maritime public'and broadcast a safety zone.
- 3. Two possible types of radioactive releases tran nuclear power plants are: (1.) aantamination of reactor cualing water with radioactive iodine', or (2.) the release of radioactive gases
~
and/or particles into the atmosphere. h first type of release
~is primarily.a threat.to the coastal aquatic life with long term effects'on the food chain. The second type of release would only occur as the result of a serious degradation of the reactor core and subsequent failure of the reacter containment system. 'Ihis type of release.is nuch more serious than the first because it could pcne an inmediate threat to human life.
E. Incident Classification.
- 1. To aid in the preparation for and response w NPP incidents, the NRC has established four progressive anergency classification levels for all nuclear facilities. Operators are required to provide prompt notification to local, state and Federal autrerities whenever an initiating condition for any of the four emergency classification levcis exists. The four levels are:
- a. UtOSUAL EVENI'. Sanething out of the ordinary has occurred at
' a nuclear facility which indicates a potential degradation of
' (- -
the level of safety of the nuclear power plant. tb releases 1-2
i of radioactive material requiring utf-site response or nonitoring are expected. 'Ibe Coast Guard will be rotified of this; however, no active response on the part of the Coast Guard is anticipated.
- b. ALERT. LVents are in pl sceus n : w wcurred which involve an actual or potential substant.al degradation of the level of safety of the plant.. wy releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of ie EPA's Environmental Protection Action Guideline exposure levels. The Coast Guard will be notified and preparations will begin at this level but no active response will be required unless the situation indicates further escalation.
- c. SITE AREA DERGDCf. Events are in process or have occurred which involve actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to exceed EPA exposure levels except near site bouncaries. The Coast Guard will actively deploy resources at this level.
- d. GENERAL DERGDCl. Events are a process or have occurred which involve actual or intainent auustantial core degradation or melting with potential tor loss e,f containment integrity.
Releases can reasonably be expected to exceed EPA exp3sure levels outside the inmediate site area. An active response by the Coast Guard should be in process before this level is reached.
- 2. Additionally, there are two personnei emergency action levels established:
- a. Level 1 - Onsite emergency med.ca. treatment required for any individual with or without evicence of internal or external contamination.
- o. Level 2 - Of fsite emergency neoica. treatment required for any individual without evidence of internal or external contamination.

' \/ 'A. General.
1; Any' active Coast Guard response to a radiologteul incident can be { expected to quickly escalate into a district-wide evolution i involving alltiple commands and conmand levels. . As a port emergency affecting the safety of mariners and the quality of the marine environment,:the Captain of the Port in whose zone the. affected plant resides has a responsibility to coordinate with the facility operator. to ensure that mariners are properly warned of-possible dangers as they develop'and that Coast Guard response acticris are conducted with the most couplete safety information available. - Group Conmanders must be prepared to provide quick response with trained boat crews to enforce a safety zone in
-coordination with the ODIP and insure that a Safety Voice Broadcast or Urgent Marine Information Broadcast as appropriate is prouptly
. issued to warn mariners.
- 2. It is fully expected that a radiological 1.wident will quickly become a major news story and a matter et immediate concern to the' District Ccmnander. A radiological incident may well cross group boundaries as weil as 00fIP zones. Only the District Ccmnander has the legal authority to issue a safety zone tnat crosses OtnP zones.
In a major radiological incident, as in any declared natural
- disaster, FEMA will assume the lead role in marshaling and A deploying Federal resources in the recovery effort. It is exrfeted that requests for personnel or equipment will come,from the states V' . or FD4A directly. to the District Ccmnander. Such requests will probably be the major thrust of' Coast Guard concern and involvement in the incident. 'No of the four power plants are located on exposed shorelines in relatively renote areas. This would make an extended enforcement of safety zones with small boats alone at these two sites (Seabrook and Pilgrim) impractical due to serious limitations in endurance and ccuminications capabilities. In sucn instances a larger district-controlled platform should be deployed to act as On-Scene Ccmnander.

Southeast end of Plymouth Bay in Massachusetts (see (.%. rtlet- Page 5-5). ' The Pilgrim Plant, operated by the Boston Edison Cbspany, has buen in operation for a nunber of years and, as an older plant, nas no remote sensors to detect radiation at off-site L locations. W e plant sits on a headland in a sparsely populated area. Se closest port is Plynouth Harbor approximately three miles to the Northwerst. Tne boundary between Group /CDIP Boston and Group mods Hole /COIP Prcwidence is at Mancmet Point approximately 2.5 nautical miles southeast of the plant. Berefore a SITE: AREA or GENERAL EMERGDCI would likely require a safety zone extending into both OCrrP zones / Group ACRs. Se

A. General Information.
- 1. Se IRI Nuclear Science Center'is located on South Ferry Road in Narragansett, R.I.(see chartlet, Page 6-5). The 2 megawatt i reactor at the NSC does not have enough nuclear fuel to create a General am gency situaticn where there would be an uncontrolled release of radioactive materials into the environment.
Consequently, there should be no necessity of instituting offsite protective actions. The Emergency Plannira Zone for a NPP is normally 10 miles; however, the EPZ for the NSC only extends to the boundaries of the reactor building and the basement area north of the reactor building. Se closest Coast Guard units are Station Castle Hill and Station Point Judith located approximately 5.5 and 10 nautical miles away by sea respectively. B. Rspme MxMus.

CHAPTER 10. PERSONNCL PROFIETION , p _ How Radiation is Measured. Radiation to personnel is usually expressed (") A.. in " rem" or "milirem" (1/1000 of a rem) units. Rem is an acronym for Radiation B2uivalent Man. Older terms for rem are " rad" or " roentgen". B. Effects of Nuclear Radiaticn. Radiation affects organic matter by ionizing (tearing the electrons frcm) atms. 'Ihis process kills or damages the body's cells. If the damage is slight the body can repair or replace most of the cells. Exposure to large anounts of radiation over a short time period, however, will cause radiation sickness which occurs when the bone marrow cannot produce new red blood, cells. Radiation sickness may result frczn short term exposures exceeding 100,000 mren. Other hazardous effects of radiation on the body are the development of can rs and genetic mutations. These health problems may not appear until many years after exposure to radiation. 'Iblerance j to radiation may vary widely anong individuals, however, young children 1 and pregnant women are far more sensitive to the effects of radiation.
'Iherefore, it is extrenely important to ensure that feale servicemenbers who are, or who think they may be, pregnant are ;
protected frczn radiation exposure. C. Exrosure Limits. Exposure limits to radiation cannot be expressed in terms of a TLV ('Ihreshold Limit Value) as is the case for chenical exposure because radiation affects the body differently than chemical agents. In other words, there is no known safe upper limit of radiation exposure that persons can be exposed to on a daily basis without serious health effects. It is true that the body can withstand O V far nore radiation if distributed over a long period of time; however,. it is not true that the body can comple*'ly repair itself after radiation exposure without long term or cunulative adverse health effects. It is fairly well known that short term exposure to 400,000 to 600,000 mrem will result in death to about half of the individuals exposed. Of those who survive the dose, an unknown percentage may suffer the development of malignant cancers or may develop genetic disorders. Relatively little is known about tne effects of lower dosages of radiation on a hunan population so it is difficult to assess what level is safe. Tne EPA reccmmends sheltering if the exposure is expected to exceed a range of 1000 to 5000 mrem for wnole body exposure. Coast Guard ccmnands snould follow tnese guidelines and should ocey evacuation / sheltering directives and r e - ndations of the state civil defense authorities. D. Ex;csure Protection. Because of the low strength of the fuel sour ,
.it is not possible for a NPP to cause a nuclear detonation. As a result the protective measures necessary for a NPP incident are not l
likely to equal measures for NBC warfare. Tne most likely radioactive elements released frcm a NPP incident would be radioactive Xenon and l Iodine in gaseous form. Xenon is inert so that it will not react or become stored in human tissue. 'Ibe hazard of Xenon will pass as it dissipates' with the wind. If caught in an area contaminated with radioactive xenon gas, a gcod protective measure would be to seek shelter sucn as inside a vehicle or inside tne cabin of a boat and (q) leave the area inraediately if possible to seek medical care. 10 '
Radioactive iodine is reactive. It will settle on clothing and skin where it will continue to emit radiation and damage tissue. Since iodine readily canbines with water, it can be washed off using a direct stream of water from on board firefignting systems. It is very inportant not to ingest radioactive iodine through eating or drinking because it will became stored in the thyroid where it will continue to do damage. Even breathing radioactive iodine gas may cause the iodine to combine with moisture in the respiratory system. If ackninistered before or shortly after exposure, potassium iodide tablets are an effective blocking agent against inhalation of iodide-131. For more information see paragraph E belcw. Although xenon and iodine are the two most likely. radioactive emissions prcM in a NPP incident, disasters by their very nature are not predictable. Se most effective protection is knowledge of the nature of the situation. E. Use of Potassium Iodide in Radiolcx;ical Response. B ere are two Federal d e nts that address the use of potassium iodide: Federal Register Vol 43, H3. 242, Dec. 15, 1978, p. 58798 released by H N and Federal Register, Vol. 50, No.142, July 4,1985, P. 30258 released by FD4A. Se HW release reports that use of 100 milligrams (ng) of iodide or 130 mg of potassium iodide appears to maintain effective thyroid blocking of the uptake of radioactive iodide-131 which may be released during nuclear accidents. Tests have shcxm that the drug is effective within 30 minutes after oral administration. A daily dose of 130 mg potassium iodide is the recommended amount. There is no evidence of adverse effects frcm doses at these levels. 21s conclusion is based on years of data at much higher levels. Se FEMA report also indicates that taking potassium iodide has been demonstrated as a good a:ticx4 to take. A small fraction of the public may have an allergic reaction to the drug; however the short-term risks are considered to be very sm=11 whei rx4mred to the risks of radiation exposures during an emergency. If parsonnel have a known sensitivity to iodine, they should not take potassium iodide tablets and should not be used for response actions where tne blocking agent is indicated as a protective measure.

The Parker River National Wildlife Refuge is composed of 4,662 acres and includes the southern two thirds of Plum Island. Visitor hours are I from % hour before sunrise to % hour after sunset. During'inte Spring,
. Summer and early Fall, the refuge may be filled to capacity by 9:00 a.m., j and the main gate is closed until 3:00 p.m. Refuge officials estimate maximum capacity at 300 to 400 vehicles averaging two and one half to
. three. persons per vehicle, or a maximum 1200 persons. In addition, I

1 Specifically this procedure will identify actions taken to clear the refuge of visitors in the event of an emergency at Seabrook Station. c .This procedure does not address'the protective actions required for Camp p Sea Haven. New Hampshire Yankee Special Procedure number SF-20 is speci-fically written to encompass notification, sheltering and or the eva-cuation of Camp Sea Haven in the event of an accident at Seabrook Station Nuclear Power Station. Special Procedure SF-20 is implemented and maintained by the New Hampshire Yankee Offsite Response Organization in conjunction with Cerebral Palsy of Greater Boston and is' independent of the implementation of this procedure.
'40 v 3.0. AUTHORITY The' Refuge Manager has enforcement authority to evacuate and close the Refuge under Title 50, Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 25.21, 25.31.
Responsibility for (over-all) coordination of ricker River National { Wildlife Refuge response to a radiological incident at Seabrook Station will.be 'in the Refuge Manager. 4.0 SEQUENCE OF EVENT / EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS l Extraordinary conditions may arise during the operation of Nuclear Power i Facilities.
