SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 Start Historical 2.1 GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY 2.1.1 SITE LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION 2.1.1.1 Specification of Location The Susquehanna SES is located on the west bank of the Susquehanna River in Salem Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania with additional recreational and agricultural lands located on the east bank of the rivers in Conyngham and Hollenback Townships.

It is four miles south of Shickshinny and five miles northeast of Berwick. The nearest village is Beach Haven on the southeast edge of the main station site.

The Universal Transverse Mercator Coordinates for the center point between Susquehanna SES Units 1 and 2 reactors are 4,549,300 meters north and 403,800 meters east, Zone 18.

These correspond to 4105'30" north latitude and 7608'55" west longitude and are also equivalent to the Pennsylvania Coordinate System (PCS) Coordinates 341,175 feet north and 2,442,025 feet east respectively. The PCS is used throughout this report.

The portion of the site in Salem Township is about 1,574 acres, which includes the property on the flood plain and agricultural land to the west of Confers Lane (Township Road T-438). The main station site area within the security fence is approximately 230 acres. An additional 717 acres of land on the east bank has woodlands, farming, reaction, etc.

Topography in the site vicinity ranges from relatively flat flood plains to gently rolling hills.

Elevations range from 500 feet to 1,600 feet above mean sea level (msl). In an east-west direction, the site is essentially flat from the river to U.S. Route 11 and is 530 ft above mean sea level. Elevation increases sharply to the west from U.S. Route 11 to the station site, rising from about 530 feet (mean sea level) to about 700 feet (msl) in the station area (see Figure 2.1-21).

Continuing to the westerly edge of the site, the land is relatively flat and at about the same elevation as the main station buildings. In a south-north direction, the site rises gradually from about 650 ft (msl) on the south boundary to about 900 ft (msl) on the north.

The main station buildings are located on a terrace above the flood plain approximately 4000 feet west of the Susquehanna River in Salem Township (see Figure 2.1-22). The land around the main station buildings is relatively open with trees on the steeper slopes. It was formerly under cultivation for farm and orchard crops and is slowly reverting back to woodlands.

2.1.1.2 Site Area Map A map of the site area including major structures and facilities is provided as (Figure 2.1-22). In addition to the site property in Salem Township the Licensee owns 717 acres of recreational land on the east side of the river in Conyngham and Hollenback Townships.

The exclusion area as defined in 10CFR100 (Ref. 2.1-1), is a circle of radius 1800 feet with the center at the common release point. Radiation dose limits at this location are regulated by FSAR Rev. 67 2.1-1

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 10CFR50.67, Accident Source Term. The coordinates of the common release point are N341,175 and E 2,441,970.5. Aside from transit through the exclusion area, there are no activities permitted within this zone other than those related to station operation. There are no residences within the exclusion area.

Roads that traverse the site are:

a) On the north - Beach Grove Road (T-419) which is approximately 1600 ft. from the center of the exclusion area and approximately 500 ft. from the nearest vital structure. (Salem Township) b) On the west - Confers Lane (T-438) which is approximately 2000 ft. from the center of the exclusion area and approximately 1400 ft. from the nearest vital structure. (Salem Township) c) On the south - Bell Bend (T-456) which is approximately 1800 ft. from the center of the exclusion area and approximately 1600 ft. from the nearest vital structure.

(Salem Township) d) On the east - U.S. Route No. 11 which is approximately 2600 ft. from the center of the exclusion area and approximately 2500 ft. from the nearest vital structure.

(Salem Township) e) On the floodplain on the east bank - Route 239 is located approximately 7,100 feet from the center of the exclusion area. (Conyngham Township).

Railways that traverse the site are:

A rail line owned by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania traverses the flood plain. It is operated by the North Shore Railroad Co. and is located approximately 2,700 feet east of the center of the exclusion area. This line is exclusively used by the Licensee. The section of the line north of the site is not being used at present. An access spur from the main line of the railroad onto the site permits rail service to the station.

The Susquehanna River flows from north to south separating the site from recreational lands on the east side of the river. The river is navigable only by small pleasure and fishing boats because of shallow water and obstructions in the vicinity of the site.

2.1.1.3 Boundaries for Establishing Effluent Release Limits The exclusion area is the area within a radius of 1,800 feet from the common release point of both reactors, (Figure 2.1-22). The distance from the gaseous effluent release points to the boundary is at least 1,800 feet. The station liquid effluent release point is located at the river approximately 4,000 feet from the common release point. See Section 2.1.2.3 for arrangements for traffic control.

2.1.2 EXCLUSION AREA AUTHORITY AND CONTROL 2.1.2.1 Authority FSAR Rev. 67 2.1-2

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 PP&L owns the entire plant exclusion area (except for Township Route T-419) in fee simple and, therefore, has complete authority to regulate any and all access and activity within that area.

Minimum distance to exclusion area boundary is discussed in Subsection 2.1.1.2.

2.1.2.2 Control of Activities Unrelated to Plant Operation The only area within the exclusion area in which activities unrelated to plant operation may or will occur is Township Route T-419. See Section 2.1.2.3 for traffic control arrangements.

The location of this area within the exclusion area is shown in Figure 2.1-22. The exclusion area outside the protected area fence will be posted and, with the exception of the township route, will be closed to persons who have not received authorization to enter the property.

PP&L normally will not control passage along Township Route T-419 within the exclusion area although the Emergency Plan provides for execution of control over passage in the event of emergency conditions at the plant.

2.1.2.3 Arrangements for Traffic Control PP&L has made arrangements with the Salem Township Supervisors and with the Pennsylvania State Police for control of traffic on Township Route T-419 in the event of an emergency. In addition, Pennsylvania, Luzerne County, and Columbia County Emergency Management Agencies have incorporated traffic control in their emergency procedures.

2.1.2.4 Abandonment or Relocation of Roads Approximately 0.25 mile of Township Road T-419 was relocated approximately 250 feet south to improve the grade and lessen the number of curves. This road was relocated on property owned by PP&L. Access to the plant by a rail spur was also improved through this area.

2.1.3 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION The population in the vicinity of the Susquehanna SES is sparsely distributed. The steep sloped ridges and the prevailing land use, agriculture, combine to yield a low population density outside of the communities. Table 2.1-33 indicates a decline in total population of counties within 20 miles of the site between the years 1950 and 2000. There was a decrease in population of about 111,000 people or 15.7% (Ref. 2.1-2 and 2.1-3). Between 1990 and 2000 in these counties there was a decrease in population by about 7,800 people or 1.3%. Sullivan County had the greatest percentage increase (7.4%) and Luzerne County had the greatest percentage loss (2.7%) in population (Ref. 2.1-4). The nearest major populated area, the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton corridor, is 15 to 30 miles northeast of the site.

Definitions for urban and rural areas changed in 2000 and, therefore, it is difficult to compare growth trends. For example, in 1990 urban and urbanized areas had population densities as low as 1,000 persons per square mile and in 2000 this definition decreased to 500 persons per FSAR Rev. 67 2.1-3

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 square mile. The changes in urban and rural populations listed in Table 2.1-34 from 1990 to 2000 may only reflect the changes in definition and not major population shifts from urban to rural areas or vice versa (Ref. 2.1-5 and 2.1-6).

Transient populations were considered in calculating the population distribution in the site vicinity. Variations in the transient population occur from 30 to 50 miles away from the site.

This subject is discussed in greater detail in Subsection 2.1.3.3.

Population projections are based upon U.S. Bureau of Census projections for the nation (Ref. 2.1-7). These projections are stepped-down to the local level by a ratio technique. The U.S. Census projection series for the nation is based upon fertility assumptions. For the projections used in this report, two basic fertility assumptions are made; one is that the completed cohort fertility is 2.7 children per woman, which is characteristic of a growing population, and the other is 2.1 children per woman, which is characteristic of a replacement population growth. In 1990 the 2.1 completed fertility generates birth rates were comparable to national birth rates experienced in 1970-1974 (Ref. 2.1-8). It is reasonable to assume that the 2.1 completed fertility rate applies to the site area. The U.S. Census projections virtually assume a closed population. That is, on the national level migration of persons into or out of the U.S. is considered negligible. However, such a situation does not exist for the Pennsylvania area. For example, between 1980 and 1990 the U.S. population increased by 9%; however, Pennsylvanias population increased by less than 1% (Ref. 2.1-9). These figures indicate that Pennsylvania experienced out-migration. To include migration in the projections, the trends established in the 1960 to 1970 decade were projected out to the years 2000 to 2020 (Ref. 2.1-10 and 2.1-11). The results of these projections are given in Tables 2.1-35 through 2.1-38 and Figures 2.1-23 through 2.1-26.

2.1.3.1 Population Within 10 Miles The population within 10 miles of the site was sparsely distributed in 2000, and may be characterized as a declining rural population with a few small communities scattered through the area. As shown in Figure 2.1-27 and Table 2.1-39, the bulk of the population was located in the WSW, NNE, NE, SE, N and SSE sectors (Ref. 2.1-4 and 2.1-12). Seasonal population data were included in this table and figure. These sectors contain all or part of several small communities (Table 2.1-40); however, none of these communities exceeded 25,000 people, and none qualifies as a population center (10CFR100) (Ref. 2.1-1).

The rest of the area is agricultural; however, the number of farms between 1969 and 1997 declined by 26% for Luzerne County and 32% for Columbia County (Ref. 2.1-12). This decline combined with a decline in farmland (24% for Luzerne and 22% for Columbia) indicates a decline in agriculture in the vicinity of the site (Ref. 2.1-13).

Population projections for the area from 0 to 10 miles from the site for 2010 and 2020 are given in Tables 2.1-35, 2.1-37 and Figures 2.1-23, 2.1-25. Between 2010 and 2020 there is a projected decline in population of approximately 2,500 people.

2.1.3.2 Population Between 10 and 50 Miles As shown in Figure 2.1-28 and Table 2.1-41, the major focus of the population between 10 and 50 miles is in the NE and SE sectors. Seasonal population data were included in this table and FSAR Rev. 67 2.1-4

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 figure. The cities contained in these sectors (Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and Hazleton) form the nucleus of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/Hazleton Metropolitan Area. Between 1990 and 2000 the population decreased from 734,175 to 624,776 in this metropolitan area (Ref. 2.1-14).

Population projections for the area from 10 to 50 miles from the site for years 2010 and 2020 are given in Tables 2.1-36, 2.1-38, and Figures 2.1-24, 2.1-26. These projections are based on the 1990 Census since new projections are not available. After a slight increase in projected population from 2000 to 2010 there is a moderate but steady decline in population between 2010 and 2020.

2.1.3.3 Transient Population Between 0 and 50 Miles The transient population around the site are of three types:

a. Seasonal
b. Daily
c. Transportation A seasonal population is dependent upon the time of year. Examples of seasonal dependency are tourists at resort areas and migrant workers. Commuters, a daily population, for example, may be present in an area 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> out of the 168 hours0.00194 days <br />0.0467 hours <br />2.777778e-4 weeks <br />6.3924e-5 months <br /> in a week. Another example of a daily population is the visitors to the mountains or beaches for the day. Finally, a transportation population is associated with some mode of transportation. For example, several thousand vehicles pass a particular location on a highway during a day; however, the persons in these vehicles may be in the site vicinity a few minutes only. Furthermore, many of the vehicles counted may be those of local residents going to and from work, or running errands. The seasonal and daily populations are of interest to the location of a nuclear power station and are discussed in more detail below.

2.1.3.3.1 Seasonal Population Between 0 to 50 Miles Within a 30-mile radius of this site there are all or part of eleven counties (Table 2.1-42). Table 2.1-42 lists current population (2000), seasonal potential population and seasonal population.

Luzerne and Columbia Counties have a seasonal population of 8,586 or less than 2.2% of the seasonal potential population in these two counties (Ref. 2.1-14). Within 10 miles of the station assuming seasonal population is 2.2% of the total population then there are approximately 1179 people who are considered seasonal.

From 30 to 50 miles the seasonal population maintains the same general concentration as it does within 30 miles. Table 2.1-42 shows that Pike, Sullivan, Monroe and Wayne counties have rather high concentrations of seasonal population. These counties are NW, NE, and E of the site. The seasonal population for the area defined by a 50 mile radius from the site was weighted and incorporated in the Population Distribution (Tables 2.1-39 and 2.1-41 and Figures 2.1-27 and 2.1-28) and Projections (Tables 2.1-35, 2.1-36, 2.1-37, 2.1-38, and 2 Figures 2.1-23, 2.1-24, 2.1-25, 2.1-26), Ref. 2.1-15.

Other sources of seasonal populations are daily visitors to attractions such as parks, wildlife refuges and national forests. It is difficult to weigh the population due to these attractions since the length of stay is usually unknown. Furthermore, persons who visit a park and hike or swim for the day are often from within the study area. Thus, instead of there being a net increase of FSAR Rev. 67 2.1-5

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 persons in the study area, there may only be a redistribution of persons. The station recreation area is estimated to have a peak daily attendance of 1,000 persons and a daily average of 300 persons according to recreation personnel. The nearest recreational area of a significant size is Ricketts Glen State Park, located approximately 15 miles north-northwest of the site and Nescopeck State Park about 12 miles east both in Luzerne County. (Ref. 2.1.16). Attendance at these parks was not included because of possible counting of local residents who visit the parks.

2.1.3.3.2 Daily Transient Population Persons who work at locations which are different than their residences constitute shifts in population during working hours. Especially large employers or urban centers can result in substantial shifts in local population. The Susquehanna site experiences daily shifts in population both into and away from the site area. However, the resident population presents a conservative (high) estimate of the distribution of persons in the vicinity of the station since employment opportunities away from the site area (i.e., further than 5 miles) are greater than those within it. Population shifts into the area occur as workers commute to the 13 industries which occur within 5 miles of the site. These industries employ a total of 1,746 persons some of whom would be expected to reside in the site area (see Table 2.1-43, Ref. 2.1-17). When one weighs the proportion of working hours to total hours in a week (40/160) the residential population increased by only 437 persons.

Daily shifts in population away from the site would be expected to be greater than noted above due to the presence of a number of urban areas located nearby. In Luzerne County, the City of Wilkes-Barre, located 21 miles to the northeast, is a major urban and employment center.

Valmont Industrial Park, located near the City of Hazleton 15 miles southeast of the site, is another important employment center. In Columbia County, Berwick Borough, located 5 miles to the southwest, and the Town of Bloomsburg, located approximately 18 miles to the west-southwest, are the major employment and urban centers.

2.1.3.3.3 Low Population Zone The distance of the Low Population Zone (LPZ), established for the Susquehanna SES in accordance with 10CFR100, is a three-mile radius from the center of exclusion area. Radiation dose limits at LPZ are regulated by 10CFR50.67, Accident Source Term. The estimated population in the LPZ in 2000 was 2,133 (Table 2.1-39). Projected and existing population distribution data for distances up to 50 miles from the plant are on Tables 2.1-36, 2.1-38, and 2.1-41, and Figures 2.1-24, 2.1-26 and 2.1-28.

No schools, hospitals, state or municipal parks are located within the LPZ. The plant recreation area is within the LPZ. Five industrial plants, Leggett and Platt, Castek, PMC Lifestyle, and MP Metals and Tech Packaging are located within the LPZ. These plants employ a total of 254 persons who would contribute to the peak daily transient population. Seasonal population and daily transient populations are discussed in Subsection 2.1.3.3.1.

Some of the facilities and institutions beyond the low population zone within five miles of the station which because of their nature, may require special consideration when evaluating emergency plans include: campgrounds, at state gamelands, public schools, municipal buildings, swimming and boating operations, a miniature golf course, and a number of FSAR Rev. 67 2.1-6

SSES-FSAR Text Rev. 59 industries. Industries within five miles are identified in Table 2.1-43. The State and county emergency management agencies have plans for notification of facilities and institutions within the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) in the event of an emergency. Also, State and local police departments will direct traffic in the event of an emergency. It should be noted that portions of communities outside this 10-mile EPZ are included in emergency planning evacuation plans.

2.1.3.4 Population Center The nearest population center as defined in 10CFR100 is the City of Wilkes-Barre, located about 21 miles northeast, which had a 1980 population of 55,551 and a 1990 population of 47,523 and a 2000 population of 43,123 (Ref. 2.1-4). It is part of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/Hazleton Metropolitan Area. See Section 2.1.3.2 for additional information.

Subsection 2.1.3.3 discusses transient population.

Tables 2.1-35, 2.1-36, 2.1-37, 2.1-38 and Figures 2.1-23, 2.1-24, 2.1-25, and 2.1-26 show population projections for the population around the Susquehanna site.

Berwick, Pennsylvania is not likely to exceed 25,000 people and become the population center within the next 40 years. Using population figures provided by the Columbia County Planning Commission (Ref. 2.1-18), Berwicks population is projected to decrease by 1,071 persons between 2000 and 2020 (Table 2.1-44). The 2000 projection of 10,395 was within 379 people according to the 2000 census.

2.1.3.5 Population Density Tables 2.1-45 and 2.1-46 show the comparison of cumulative population for the initial year of operation and final year of operation versus a cumulative population from a uniform population density of 500 people/sq. mile and 1000 people/sq. mile respectively.
