EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

This report describes the analyses undertaken and the results obtained by a study to develop Evacuation Time Estimates (ETE) for the Limerick Generating Station (LGS) located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. ETE are part of the required planning basis and provide Constellation and state and local governments with sitespecific information needed for Protective Action decisionmaking.

In the performance of this effort, guidance is provided by documents published by Federal Governmental agencies. Most important of these are:

  • Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Appendix E to Part 50 (10CFR50), Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities, NRC, 2011.
  • Revision 1 of the Criteria for Development of Evacuation Time Estimate Studies, NUREG/CR7002, February 2021.

December 2019.

Overview of Project Activities This project began in November 2020 and extended over a period of nearly 2 years. The major activities performed are briefly described in chronological sequence:

Attended kickoff meetings with Constellation personnel and emergency management personnel representing state and county governments.

Accessed the 2020 U.S. Census Bureau data files.

Employee data was obtained from the county emergency management agencies and from Constellation.

Studied Geographic Information Systems (GIS) maps of the area in the vicinity of the LGS, then conducted a detailed field survey of the highway network to observe any roadway changes relative to the previous ETE study done in 2014.

Calibrated the analysis network representing the highway system topology and capacities within the entire Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ), plus a Shadow Region covering the region between the EPZ boundary and approximately 15 miles radially from the plant.

Designed and conducted an online demographic survey of residents within the study area (EPZ and Shadow Region), to gather focused data needed for this ETE study that were not contained within the census database. The survey instrument was reviewed and modified by the licensee and county/state emergency management personnel prior to conducting the survey.

A data needs matrix (requesting data) was provided to Constellation and the county/state emergency management agencies at the kickoff meeting. The data for Limerick Generating Station ES1 KLD Engineering, P.C.

transient and special facilities (schools, medical facilities and correctional facilities) in each county was based on the data received from the counties and data from the previous ETE study, supplemented by internet searches where data was missing.

The traffic demand and tripgeneration rates of evacuating vehicles were estimated from the gathered data. The trip generation rates reflected the estimated mobilization time (i.e., the time required by evacuees to prepare for the evacuation trip) computed using the results of the demographic survey of the study area.

Following federal guidelines, the EPZ is subdivided into 43 Subareas. These Subareas are then grouped within circular areas or keyhole configurations (circles plus radial sectors) that define a total of 42 Evacuation Regions.

The timevarying external circumstances are represented as Evacuation Scenarios, each described in terms of the following factors: (1) Season (Summer, Winter); (2) Day of Week (Midweek, Weekend); (3) Time of Day (Midday, Evening); and (4) Weather (Good, Rain/Light Snow, Heavy Snow). One special event scenario - the Firebird Festival in Phoenixville was considered. One roadway impact scenario was considered wherein a single lane was closed on US 422 eastbound for the duration of the evacuation.

Staged evacuation was considered for those regions wherein the 2Mile Region and sectors downwind to 5 miles were evacuated.

As per NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1, the Planning Basis for the calculation of ETE is:

A rapidly escalating accident at the LGS that quickly assumes the status of a general emergency wherein evacuation is ordered promptly, and no early protective actions have been implemented such that the Advisory to Evacuate (ATE) is virtually coincident with the siren notification.

While an unlikely accident scenario, this planning basis will yield ETE, measured as the elapsed time from the ATE until the stated percentage of the population exits the impacted Region, that represent upper bound estimates. This conservative Planning Basis is applicable for all initiating events.

If the emergency occurs while schools are in session, the ETE study assumes that the children will be evacuated by bus directly to reception centers or host schools located outside the EPZ. Parents, relatives, and neighbors are advised to not pick up their children at school prior to the arrival of the buses dispatched for that purpose. The ETE for schoolchildren are calculated separately.

Evacuees who do not have access to a private vehicle will either rideshare with relatives, friends or neighbors, or be evacuated by buses provided as specified in the county evacuation plans. Those in special facilities will likewise be evacuated with public transit, as needed: bus, wheelchair bus, or ambulance, as required. Separate ETE are calculated for the transitdependent evacuees, for access and/or functional needs population, and for those evacuated from special facilities.

Attended a final meeting with Constellation personnel and county and state representatives to present results from the ETE study.

Computation of ETE A total of 588 ETE were computed for the evacuation of the general public. Each ETE quantifies the aggregate evacuation time estimated for the population within one of the 42 Evacuation Regions to evacuate from that Region, under the circumstances defined for one of the 14 Evacuation Scenarios (42 x 14 = 588). Separate ETE are calculated for transitdependent evacuees, including schoolchildren for applicable scenarios.

Except for Region R03, which is the evacuation of the entire EPZ, only a portion of the people within the EPZ would be advised to evacuate. That is, the ATE applies only to those people occupying the specified impacted region. It is assumed that 100% of the people within the impacted region will evacuate in response to this ATE. The people occupying the remainder of the EPZ outside the impacted region may be advised to take shelter.

The computation of ETE assumes that 20% of the population within the EPZ but outside the impacted region will elect to voluntarily evacuate. In addition, 20% of the population in the Shadow Region will also elect to evacuate. These voluntary evacuees could impede those who are evacuating from within the impacted region. The impedance that could be caused by voluntary evacuees is considered in the computation of ETE for the impacted region.

Staged evacuation is considered wherein those people within the 2Mile Region evacuate immediately, while those beyond 2 miles, but within the EPZ, shelterinplace. Once 90% of the 2Mile Region is evacuated, those people beyond the 2Mile Region begin to evacuate. As per federal guidance, 20% of people beyond the 2Mile Region will evacuate (noncompliance) even though they are advised to shelterinplace during a staged evacuation.

The computational procedure is outlined as follows:

A linknode representation of the highway network is coded. Each link represents a unidirectional length of highway; each node usually represents an intersection or merge point. The capacity of each link is estimated based on the field survey observations and on established traffic engineering procedures.

The evacuation trips are generated at locations called zonal centroids located within the EPZ and Shadow Region. The trip generation rates vary over time reflecting the mobilization process, and from one location (centroid) to another depending on population density and on whether a centroid is within, or outside, the impacted area.

The evacuation model computes the routing patterns for evacuating vehicles that are compliant with federal guidelines (outbound relative to the location of the plant), then simulate the traffic flow movements over space and time. This simulation process estimates the rate that traffic flow exits the impacted region.

The ETE statistics provide the elapsed times for 90% and 100%, respectively, of the population within the impacted region, to evacuate from within the impacted region. These statistics are presented in tabular and graphical formats. The 90th percentile ETE have been identified as the values that should be considered when making protective action decisions because the 100th Limerick Generating Station ES3 KLD Engineering, P.C.

percentile ETE are prolonged by those relatively few people who take longer to mobilize. This is referred to as the evacuation tail in Section 4.0 of NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1. The 100th percentile ETE is when the last vehicle to evacuate crosses the boundary of the area being evacuated.

Traffic Management This study reviewed, modeled and analyzed the existing comprehensive traffic management plans provided in the Berks County, Chester County, and Montgomery County Radiological Emergency Response Plans.

Due to the detailed plans already in place and the traffic congestion patterns within the EPZ (discussed in Section 7.3), no additional traffic or access control measures have been identified as a result of this study. See Section 9 and Appendix G.

Selected Results A compilation of selected information is presented on the following pages in the form of Figures and Tables extracted from the body of the report; these are described below.

Conclusions General population ETE were computed for 588 unique cases - a combination of 42 unique Evacuation Regions and 14 unique Evacuation Scenarios. Table 71 and Table 72 document these ETE for the 90th and 100th percentiles. These ETE range from 2:30 (hr:min) to 6:20 at the 90th percentile.

Inspection of Table 71 and Table 72 indicates that the ETE for the 100th percentile are significantly longer than those for the 90th percentile, ranging from 4:45 to 10:35. This is the result of the congestion within the EPZ. When the system becomes congested, traffic exits the EPZ at rates somewhat below capacity until some evacuation routes have cleared. As more routes clear, the aggregate rate of egress slows since many vehicles have already left the EPZ. Towards the end of the process, relatively few evacuation routes service the remaining demand. See Figures 79 through 722.

Inspection of Table 73 and Table 74 indicates that a staged evacuation provides no benefit to evacuees from within the 2Mile Region. However, evacuees from 2 to 5 miles are delayed by as much as 55 minutes. Staged evacuation is not beneficial for the LGS EPZ. See Section 7.6 for additional discussion.

Comparison of Scenarios 12 (winter, midweek/weekend, evening) and 13 (winter, weekend, evening) in Table 72 indicates that the special event does not materially affect the ETE. See Section 7.5 for additional discussion.

Comparison of Scenarios 1 and 14 in Table 71 indicates that events such as adverse weather or traffic accidents which close a lane on US 422, could significantly impact the 90th percentile ETE (up to 60 minutes). State and local police could consider traffic management tactics such as using the shoulder of the roadway as a travel lane or re routing of traffic along other evacuation routes to avoid overwhelming US 422. All efforts should be made to remove the blockage on US 422, particularly within the first 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> of the evacuation. See Section 7.5 for additional discussion.

The majority of the EPZ is congested throughout a full EPZ evacuation. All congestion within the EPZ clears by 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and 45 minutes after the Advisory to Evacuate. See Section 7.3 and Figures 73 through 78.

Separate ETE were computed for schools, medical facilities, transitdependent persons, and access and/or functional needs persons. The average singlewave ETE for these facilities are comparable to or less than the general population ETE at the 90th percentile for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (region R03). See Section 8.

Table 81 indicates that there are sufficient resources to evacuate all medical facilities, access and functional needs population, school children and the transit dependent population in a single wave.

A one hour reduction in the base trip generation time of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and 45 minutes has no impact on the the general population ETE at the 90th percentile. An increase in mobilization time of one hour increases the 90th percentile ETE by 15 minutes. See Section M.1.

The general population ETE is significantly impacted by the voluntary evacuation of vehicles in the Shadow Region. Tripling the shadow evacuation percentage increases Limerick Generating Station ES5 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

90th and 100th percentile ETE by 35 minutes. See Section M.2.

An increase in permanent resident population (EPZ plus Shadow Region) of 12% or greater results in an increase in the longest 90th percentile ETE of 30 minutes, which meets the federal criterion for performing a fully updated ETE study between decennial Censuses. See Section M.3.

1 INTRODUCTION This report describes the analyses undertaken and the results obtained by a study to develop Evacuation Time Estimates (ETE) for the Limerick Generating Station (LGS), located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. ETE provide state and local governments with sitespecific information needed for Protective Action decisionmaking.

In the performance of this effort, guidance is provided by documents published by Federal Government agencies. Most important of these are:

  • Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Appendix E to Part 50 (10CFR50), Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities, NRC, 2011.
  • Revision 1 of the Criteria for Development of Evacuation Time Estimate Studies, NUREG/CR7002, February 2021.

December 2019.

The work effort reported herein was supported and guided by local stakeholders who contributed suggestions, critiques, and the local knowledge base required. Table 11 presents a summary of stakeholders and interactions.

1.1 Overview of the ETE Process The following outline presents a brief description of the work effort in chronological sequence:

1. Information Gathering:
a. Defined the scope of work in discussions with representatives from Constellation.
b. Attended meetings with emergency planners from state and local emergency management agencies to discuss methodology, project assumptions and to identify issues to be addressed and resources available.
c. Conducted a detailed field survey of the highway system and of area traffic conditions within the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ - circle with an approximate 10mile radius centered at the plant) and the Shadow Region (area between the EPZ boundary and 15 miles radially from the plant).
d. Obtained demographic data from the 2020 Census (See Section 3.1).
e. Conducted an online demographic survey of the study area residents (See Appendix F).
f. Conducted a data collection effort to identify and describe special facilities (schools, medical facilities and correctional facilities), major employers, access and/or functional needs population, transportation resources available, the special event, and other important information.

2. Estimated distributions of trip generation times representing the time required by various population groups (permanent residents, employees, and transients) to prepare (mobilize) for the evacuation trip. These estimates are primarily based upon the online demographic survey.
3. Defined Evacuation Scenarios (See Section 6). These scenarios reflect the variation in demand, in trip generation distribution and in highway capacity, associated with different seasons, day of week, time of day and weather conditions.
4. Reviewed the existing traffic management plan to be implemented by local and state police in the event of an incident at the plant. Traffic control is applied at specified Traffic Control Points (TCP), Access Control Points (ACP) and Control Entry Points (CEP) located within the EPZ. See Section 9 and Appendix G.
5. Divided the EPZ into 43 Subareas along township and borough boundaries. Used these Subareas to define Evacuation Regions. Regions are groups of contiguous subareas for which ETE are calculated. The configurations of these regions reflect wind direction and the radial extent of the impacted area. Each region, other than those that approximate circular areas, approximates a keyhole section within the EPZ as recommended by NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1.
6. Estimated demand for transit services for persons at schools, medical facilities, correctional facilities, transitdependent persons at home and those with access and/or functional needs.
7. Prepared the input streams for the DYNEV II system.
a. Estimated the evacuation traffic demand, based on the available information derived from census data, and from data provided by local and state agencies, Constellation and from the demographic survey.
b. Applied the procedures specified in the 2016 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM1) to the data acquired during the field survey, to estimate the capacity of all highway segments comprising the evacuation routes.
c. Updated the linknode representation of the evacuation network using the field survey and aerial imagery, which is used as the basis for the computer analysis that calculates the ETE.
d. Calculated the evacuating traffic demand for each Region and for each Scenario.
e. Specified selected candidate destinations for each origin (location of each source where evacuation trips are generated over the mobilization time) to support evacuation travel consistent with outbound movement relative to the location of the LGS.

8. Executed the DYNEV II system to determine optimal evacuation routing and compute ETE for all residents, transients and employees (general population) with access to private vehicles. Generated a complete set of ETE for all specified Regions and Scenarios.
9. Documented ETE in formats in accordance with NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1.
10. Calculated the ETE for all transit activities including those for special facilities (schools, medical facilities, etc.), for the transitdependent population and for the access and/or functional needs population.

1.2 The Limerick Generating Station Location The LGS is located along the Schuylkill River in Limerick Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The site is approximately 30 miles northwest of Philadelphia, PA. The EPZ consists of parts of Berks, Chester and Montgomery Counties in Pennsylvania. Figure 11 displays the area surrounding the LGS. This map identifies the communities in the area and the major roads.

1.3 Preliminary Activities These activities are described below.

Field Surveys of the Highway Network KLD personnel drove the entire highway system within the EPZ and the Shadow Region. The characteristics of each section of highway were recorded. These characteristics are shown in Table 12.

Video and audio recording equipment were used to capture a permanent record of the highway infrastructure. No attempt was made to meticulously measure such attributes as lane width and shoulder width; estimates of these measures based on visual observation and recorded images were considered appropriate for the purpose of estimating the capacity of highway sections. For example, Exhibit 157 in the HCM indicates that a reduction in lane width from 12 feet (the base value) to 10 feet can reduce free flow speed (FFS) by 1.1 mph - not a material difference - for twolane highways. Exhibit 1546 in the HCM shows little sensitivity for the estimates of Service Volumes at Level of Service (LOS) E (near capacity), with respect to FFS, for twolane highways.

The data from the audio and video recordings were used to create detailed Geographic Information Systems (GIS) shapefiles and databases of the roadway characteristics and of the traffic control devices observed during the road survey; this information was referenced while preparing the input stream for the DYNEV II System. Roadway types were assigned based on the following criteria:

Freeway: limited access highway, 2 or more lanes in each direction, high free flow speeds Freeway Ramp: ramp on to or off of a limited access highway Limerick Generating Station 13 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

Major Arterial: 3 or more lanes in each direction Minor Arterial: 2 lanes in each direction Collector: single lane in each direction Local Roadway: single lane in each direction, local road with low free flow speeds As documented on page 156 of the HCM 2016, the capacity of a twolane highway is 1,700 passenger cars per hour in one direction. For freeway sections, a value of 2,250 vehicles per hour per lane is assigned, as per Exhibit 1237 of the HCM 2016. The road survey has identified several segments which are characterized by adverse geometrics on twolane highways which are reflected in reduced values for both capacity and speed. These estimates are consistent with the service volumes for LOS E presented in HCM Exhibit 1546. Link capacity is an input to DYNEV II which computes the ETE. Further discussion of roadway capacity is provided in Section 4 of this report.

Traffic signals are either pretimed (signal timings are fixed over time and do not change with the traffic volume on competing approaches) or are actuated (signal timings vary over time based on the changing traffic volumes on competing approaches). Actuated signals require detectors to provide the traffic data used by the signal controller to adjust the signal timings.

These detectors are typically magnetic loops in the roadway, or video cameras mounted on the signal masts and pointed toward the intersection approaches. If detectors were observed on the approaches to a signalized intersection during the road survey, detailed signal timings were not collected as the timings vary with traffic volume. TCPs and ACPs at locations which have control devices are represented as actuated signals in the DYNEV II system.

If no detectors were observed, the signal control at the intersection was considered pretimed, and detailed signal timings were gathered for several signal cycles. These signal timings were input to the DYNEV II system used to compute ETE, as per NUREG/CR7002, Rev 1 guidance.

Figure 12 presents the linknode analysis network that was constructed to model the evacuation roadway network in the EPZ and Shadow Region. The directional arrows on the links and the node numbers have been removed from Figure 12 to clarify the figure. The detailed figures provided in Appendix K depict the analysis network with directional arrows shown and node numbers provided. The observations made during the field survey were used to calibrate the analysis network such that it is an exact replica of the physical roadway system.

Demographic Survey An online demographic survey was performed to gather information needed for the evacuation study. Appendix F presents the survey instrument, the procedures used, and tabulations of data compiled from the survey responses received.

These data were utilized to develop estimates of vehicle occupancy to estimate the number of evacuating vehicles during an evacuation and to estimate elements of the mobilization process.

This database was also referenced to estimate the number of transitdependent residents.

Computing the Evacuation Time Estimates The overall study procedure is outlined in Appendix D. Demographic data were obtained from several sources, as detailed later in this report. These data were analyzed and converted into vehicle demand data. The vehicle demand was loaded onto appropriate source links of the analysis network using GIS mapping software. The DYNEV II system was then used to compute ETE for all regions and scenarios.

Analytical Tools The DYNEV II System that was employed for this study is comprised of several integrated computer models. One of these is the DYNEV (DYnamic Network EVacuation) macroscopic simulation model, a new version of the IDYNEV model that was developed by KLD under contract with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

DYNEV II consists of four submodels:

A macroscopic traffic simulation model (for details, see Appendix C).

A Trip Distribution (TD), model that assigns a set of candidate destination (D) nodes for each origin (O) located within the analysis network, where evacuation trips are generated over time. This establishes a set of OD tables.

A Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) model which assigns trips to paths of travel (routes) which satisfy the OD tables, over time. The TD and DTA models are integrated to form the DTRAD (Dynamic Traffic Assignment and Distribution) model, as described in Appendix B.

A Myopic Traffic Diversion model which diverts traffic to avoid intense, local congestion, if possible.

Another software product developed by KLD, named UNITES (UNIfied Transportation Engineering System) was used to expedite data entry and to automate the production of output tables.

The dynamics of traffic flow over the network are graphically animated using the software product, EVAN (EVacuation ANimator), developed by KLD. EVAN is GIS based and displays statistics output by the DYNEV II System such as Level of Service (LOS), vehicles discharged, average speed, and percent of vehicles evacuated. The use of a GIS framework enables the user to zoom in on areas of congestion and query road name, town name and other geographical information.

The procedure for applying the DYNEV II System within the framework of developing ETE is outlined in Appendix D. Appendix A is a glossary of terms.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

NUREG/CR4874 - The Sensitivity of Evacuation Time Estimates to Changes in Input Parameters for the IDYNEV Computer Code The evacuation analysis procedures are based upon the need to:

Route traffic along paths of travel that will expedite their travel from their respective points of origin to points outside the EPZ.

Restrict movement toward the plant to the extent practicable and disperse traffic demand so as to avoid focusing demand on a limited number of highways.

Move traffic in directions that are generally outbound, relative to the location of the LGS.

DYNEV II provides a detailed description of traffic operations on the evacuation network. This description enables the analyst to identify bottlenecks and to develop countermeasures that are designed to expedite the movement of vehicles and represent the behavioral responses of evacuees. The effects of these countermeasures may then be tested with the model.

1.4 Comparison with Prior ETE Study The 90th percentile ETE for the entire EPZ decreased by 15 minutes for a winter midweek midday good weather scenario (Scenario 6) and by 5 minutes for a summer weekend midday good weather scenario (Scenario 3) when compared with the 2014 study. The 100th percentile ETE is unchanged for Scenario 6 and is decreased by 15 minutes for Scenario 3.

Table 13 presents a comparison of the present ETE study with the previous ETE study (KLD TR 617, dated January 2014). The major factors contributing to the differences between the ETE values obtained in this study and those of the previous study are:

The permanent resident population increased by approximately 7%, the number of evacuating vehicles for the permanent resident population increased by approximately 16% (approximately 26,000 vehicles). This significant increase in permanent resident evacuating vehicles is caused by the increased number of evacuating vehicles per household as per the demographic survey, resulting in a significant decrease in permanent resident vehicle occupancy. An increase in evacuating resident vehicles (demand) can increase ETE.

The number of evacuating vehicles within the Shadow Region increased by 17% (largely the result of the significant decrease in permanent resident vehicle occupancy discussed above), compared to the previous ETE. The significant increase in evacuating vehicles (demand) in the Shadow Region can increase congestion and ETE.

The number of employees commuting into the EPZ decreased significantly (60%) due to the updated NRC criteria for major employers from 50 or more employees per shift to 200 or more employees per shift. A decrease in the number of employee vehicles (demand) can decrease ETE.

Trip mobilization times are significantly different compared to 2014 study:

Limerick Generating Station 16 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

o Residents without commuters take an additional 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 45 minutes to mobilize.

o Resident with commuters (population group that takes the longest to mobilize) take an additional 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 30 minutes to mobilize.

o Employees and transients take an additional 15 minutes to mobilize.

This change in trip generation can increase or decrease ETE. The longer people take to mobilize, the longer it will take to reach the 100th percentile ETE, in an uncongested environment. Alternatively, elongating the trip generation rate could reduce congestion since less vehicles get on the road at one time giving the roadway system time to flush out vehicles at a faster rate. If vehicles load onto the network too quickly, the roadway system becomes overwhelmed and functions at or below capacity, resulting in congestion and longer ETE. Table 13 shows a comparison of the trip generation and ETE curves from the previous and current studies for a Winter, Midweek, Midday, Good Weather evacuation of the Entire EPZ. As shown in the figure, the 2014 trip generation curve is shifted to the left of the 2020 trip generation curve. As a result, the 2014 ETE curve shows that vehicles are loaded more quickly onto the roadway network until capacity is reached and the rate of egress slows (see Section 7.4) giving the curve a flatter slope. Alternatively, the 2020 ETE curve shows a steeper slope, indicating an evacuation of more vehicles in less time and less congestion overall. This is also abundantly clear when comparing congestion diagrams in the 2014 study to Figure 73 through Figure 78 in this study at the same time intervals.

Those factors that can decrease ETE outweigh those that increase ETE resulting in slightly lower ETE in this study relative to the 2014 ETE study. The NRC considers a change in ETE of 30 minutes or more to be a significant changed. As such, the changes in ETE relative to the last study are not significant.

2 STUDY ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS This section presents the estimates and assumptions utilized in the development of the ETE.

2.1 Data Estimate Assumptions

1. The permanent resident population is based on the 2020 U.S. Census population from the Census Bureau website1. (See Section 3.1).
2. Estimates of employees who reside outside the EPZ and commute to work within the EPZ are based upon data provided by each county and by Constellation for Limerick Generating Station (LGS). (See Section 3.4).
3. Population estimates at transient and special facilities are based on data received from the counties within the EPZ, the National Center for Education Statistics website2, Child Care Center website3 and the previous ETE study, supplemented by internet searches and aerial imagery where updated data was not available.
4. The average household size (2.68 people per household) is based on the 2020 U.S. Census.
5. Evacuating vehicles per household (1.44 evacuating vehicles per household - see Appendix F, subsection F.3.2) are based on the results of the online demographic survey.
6. Where data was not provided, the average household size is assumed to be the vehicle occupancy rate for transient facilities and special event.
7. Employee vehicle occupancies are based on the results of the demographic survey; 1.04 employees per vehicle are used in the study. (See Appendix F, subsection F.3.1 and Figure F7). In addition, it is assumed there are two people per carpool, on average.
8. The maximum bus speed assumed within the EPZ is 40 mph based on Pennsylvania state laws for buses and average posted speed limits on major roadways within the EPZ.
9. Roadway capacity estimates are based on field surveys performed in 2020 (verified by aerial imagery), and the application of the Highway Capacity Manual 2016.

2.2 Methodological Assumptions

1. The Planning Basis Assumption for the calculation of ETE is a rapidly escalating accident that requires evacuation, and includes the following4 (as per NRC guidance):

1 www.census.gov 2

https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/schoolsearch/index.asp 3

https://childcarecenter.us 4

We emphasize that the adoption of this planning basis is not a representation that these events will occur within the indicated time frame. Rather, these assumptions are necessary in order to:

1. Establish a temporal framework for estimating the Trip Generation distribution in the format recommended in Section 2.13 of NUREG/CR-6863.
2. Identify temporal points of reference that uniquely define "Clear Time" and ETE.

It is likely that a longer time will elapse between the various stages of an emergency. See Section 5.1 for more detail.

Limerick Generating Station 21 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

a. Advisory to Evacuate (ATE) is announced coincident with the siren notification.
b. Mobilization of the general population will commence within 15 minutes after siren notification.
c. ETE are measured relative to the ATE.
2. The centerpoint of the plant is located at the geometric center of the containment building at 40° 13' 28.52" N, 75° 35' 13.92" W.
3. The DYNEV II5 system is used to compute ETE in this study.
4. Evacuees will drive safely, travel radially away from the plant to the extent practicable given the highway network, and obey all traffic control devices and traffic guides. All major evacuation routes are used in the analysis.
5. The existing EPZ and township boundaries are used. Townships serve as SubAreas (or emergency response planning areas) for this study. See Figure 31.
6. The Shadow Region extends to 15 miles radially from the plant or approximately 5 miles radially from the EPZ boundary, as per NRC guidance. See Figure 72.
7. One hundred percent (100%) of the people within the impacted keyhole will evacuate.

Twenty percent (20%) of the population within the Shadow Region and within SubAreas of the EPZ not advised to evacuate will voluntarily evacuate, as shown in Figure 21, as per NRC guidance. Sensitivity studies explore the effect on ETE of increasing the percentage of voluntary evacuees in the Shadow Region (see Appendix M).

8. Shadow population characteristics (household size, evacuating vehicles per household, and mobilization time) are assumed to be the same as that of the permanent resident population within the EPZ.
9. ETE are presented at the 90th and 100th percentiles in graphical and tabular format, as per NRC guidance. The percentile ETE is defined as the elapsed time from the Advisory to Evacuate issued to a specific Region of the EPZ, to the time that Region is clear of the indicated percentile of evacuees.
10. This study does not assume that roadways are empty at the start of the evacuation. Rather, there is an initialization period (often referred to as fill time in traffic simulation) wherein the anticipated traffic volumes from the start of the evacuation are loaded onto roadways in the study area. The amount of initialization/fill traffic that is on the roadways in the study area at the start of the evacuation depends on the scenario and the region being evacuated. See Section 3.12.
11. To account for boundary conditions (roadway conditions outside the study area that are not specifically modeled due to the limited radius of the study area) beyond the study area, this study assumes a 25% reduction in capacity on twolane roads and multilane highways 5

The models of the I-DYNEV System were recognized as state of the art by the Atomic Safety & Licensing Board (ASLB) in past hearings. (Sources: Atomic Safety & Licensing Board Hearings on Seabrook and Shoreham; Urbanik). The models have continuously been refined and extended since those hearings and were independently validated by a consultant retained by the NRC. The DYNEV II model incorporates the latest technology in traffic simulation and in dynamic traffic assignment.

Limerick Generating Station 22 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

for roadways that have traffic signals downstream. The 25% reduction in capacity is based on the prevalence of actuated traffic signals in the study area and the fact that the evacuating (main street) traffic volume will be more significant than the competing (side street) traffic volume at any downstream signalized intersections, thereby warranting a more significant percentage (75% in this case) of the signal green time. There is no reduction in capacity for freeways due to boundary conditions.

12. The ETE also includes consideration of through (ExternalExternal traffic that originates its trip outside of the study area and has its destination outside of the study area) trips during the time that such traffic is permitted to enter the evacuated Region.

2.3 Assumptions on Mobilization Times

1. Trip generation time (also known as mobilization time, or the time required by evacuees to prepare for the evacuation) are based upon the results of the demographic survey.
2. One hundred percent (100%) of the EPZ population can be notified within 45 minutes, in accordance with the 2019 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program Manual.
3. Commuter percentages (and percentage of residents awaiting the return of a commuter) are based on the results of the demographic survey. According to the survey results, 84%

of the households in the EPZ have at least 1 commuter (see Appendix F, subsection F.3.1 and Figure F6); 57% of those households with commuters will await the return of a commuter before beginning their evacuation trip (see Appendix F, subsection F.3.2).

Therefore, 48% (84% x 57% = 48%) of EPZ households will await the return of a commuter, prior to beginning their evacuation trip.

2.4 Transit Dependent Assumptions

1. The percentage of transitdependent people who will rideshare with a neighbor or friend are based on the results of the demographic survey. According to the survey results, approximately 68% of the transitdependent population will rideshare (see Appendix F, subsection F.3.1 and Figure F5).
2. Transit vehicles are used to transport those without access to private vehicles:
a. Schools and day care centers:
i. If schools and day cares are in session, buses will evacuate students directly to the host schools6.

ii. For the schools and day care centers that are evacuated via buses, it is assumed no school children will be picked up by their parents prior to the arrival of the buses.

iii. Schoolchildren, if school is in session, are given priority in assigning transit vehicles.

6 Public schools that are not assigned a host school inside the LGS public information brochure were assigned to the closest reception center. See Section 10.

Limerick Generating Station 23 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

iv. Schools located in the Shadow Region are evacuated to host schools if the emergency plans states that the facilities will be evacuated.

b. Medical Facilities
i. Buses, wheelchair buses and ambulances will evacuate patients at medical facilities and at any senior facilities within the EPZ, as needed.

ii. The percent breakdown of ambulatory, wheelchair bound and bedridden patients from the 2014 was used to determine the percentage of ambulatory, wheelchair bound and bedridden patients at medical facilities wherein data was not provided.

c. Transitdependent permanent residents:
i. Transitdependent general population are evacuated to reception centers.

ii. Access and/or functional needs population may require county assistance (ambulance, bus or wheelchair transport) to evacuate. This is considered separately from the general population ETE, as per NRC guidance.

iii. Households with 3 or more vehicles are assumed to have no need for transit vehicles.

d. Analysis of the number of required roundtrips (waves) of evacuating transit vehicles is presented.
e. Transport of transitdependent evacuees from reception centers to congregate care centers is not considered in this study.
3. Transit vehicle capacities:
a. School buses = 70 students per bus for elementary schools and 50 students per bus for middle/high schools.
b. Ambulatory transitdependent persons and medical facility patients = 30 persons per bus.
c. Ambulances = 2 bedridden persons (includes advanced and basic life support).
d. Wheelchair vans = 4 wheelchair bound persons.
e. Wheelchair buses = 15 wheelchair bound persons.
4. Transit vehicles mobilization times:
a. Vehicles will arrive at schools and medical facilities to be evacuated within 90 minutes of the ATE.
b. Transit dependent buses are mobilized when approximately 80% of residents with no commuters have completed their mobilization at 120 minutes after the ATE (see Figure 54). Multiple waves of buses were dispatched using 20minute headways to gather those who may be slower to mobilize.
5. Transit Vehicle loading times:
a. Buses for schools are loaded in 15 minutes.
b. Transit Dependent buses require 1 minute of loading time per passenger.
c. Buses for hospitals and medical facilities require 1 minute of loading time per ambulatory passenger.
d. Wheelchair transport vehicles require 5 minutes of loading time per passenger.
e. Ambulances are loaded in 15 minutes per bedridden passenger.

Limerick Generating Station 24 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

6. Drivers for all transit vehicles are available.
7. Correctional Facilities within the EPZ will shelterinplace during an emergency.

2.5 Traffic and Access Control Assumptions

1. Traffic Control Points (TCP) and Access Control Points (ACP) as defined in the approved county and state emergency plans are considered in the ETE analysis, as per NRC guidance.

See Appendix G.

2. ACP are assumed to be staffed 120 minutes after the ATE, as per NRC guidance. Earlier activation of ACP locations could delay returning commuters. It is assumed that no through traffic will enter the EPZ after this 120minute time period.
3. All transit vehicles and other responders entering the EPZ to support the evacuation are unhindered by personnel manning TCPs and ACPs.

2.6 Scenarios and Regions

1. A total of 14 Scenarios representing different temporal variations (season, time of day, day of week) and weather conditions are considered. Scenarios to be considered are defined in Table 21:
a. Phoenixville Firebird Festival is considered as the special event (single or multiday event that attracts a significant number of transients into the EPZ; recommended by NRC guidance) for Scenario 13.
b. As per NRC guidance, one of the top 5 highest volume roadways must be closed or one lane outbound on a freeway must be closed for a roadway impact scenario.

This study considers the closure of one lane on US422 eastbound from the interchange with Evergreen Rd to the interchange with US202 for the roadway impact scenario - Scenario 14.

2. Two types of adverse weather scenarios are considered. Rain may occur for either winter or summer scenarios; snow occurs in winter scenarios only. It is assumed that the rain or snow begins at about the same time the evacuation advisory is issued. Thus, no weather related reduction in the number of transients who may be present in the EPZ is assumed.

It is assumed that roads are passable and that the appropriate agencies are clearing/treating the roads as they would normally with snow and the roads are passable albeit at lower speeds and capacities.

3. Adverse weather scenarios affect roadway capacity and free flow highway speeds. In accordance with Table 31 of Revision 1 to NUREG/CR7002, this study assumes a 10%

Limerick Generating Station 25 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

reduction in speed and capacity for rain and light snow and a speed and capacity reduction of 15% and 25%, respectively, for heavy snow. The factors are shown in Table 22.

4. Some evacuees will need additional time for heavy snow scenarios to clear their driveways and access the public roadway system. The distribution of time for this activity was gathered through a demographic survey of the public and takes up to 180 minutes (see Figure 52). It is assumed that the time needed by evacuees to remove snow from their driveways is sufficient time for snow removal crews to mobilize and clear/treat the public roadway system.
5. Employment is reduced slightly in the summer for vacations.
6. Mobilization and loading times for transit vehicles are slightly longer in adverse weather.

It is assumed that mobilization times are 10 minutes and 20 minutes longer in rain/light snow and heavy snow, respectively. It is assumed that loading times are 5 minutes and 10 minutes longer for school buses and 10 minutes and 20 minutes longer for transit buses in rain/light snow and heavy snow, respectively. Refer to Table 22.

7. Regions are defined by the underlying keyhole or circular configurations and are based on local wind persistence. These Regions, as defined, display irregular boundaries reflecting the geography of the SubAreas included within these underlying configurations.

All 16 cardinal and intercardinal wind direction keyhole configurations are considered, and the keyhole includes the downwind sector and two adjoining sectors on each side (a five sector keyhole). It is assumed that everyone within the group of SubAreas forming a Region that is issued an ATE will, in fact, respond and evacuate in general accord with the planned routes.

8. Due to the irregular shapes of the SubArea, there are instances where a small portion of a SubArea (a sliver) is within the keyhole and the population within that small portion is low (less than 500 people or 10% of the SubArea population, whichever is less). Under those circumstances, the SubArea is not included in the Region so as to not evacuate large numbers of people outside of the keyhole for a small number of people that are actually in the keyhole, unless otherwise stated in the PAR document.
9. Staged evacuation is considered as defined in NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1 - those people between 2 and 5 miles will shelterinplace until 90% of the 2mile region has evacuated, then they will evacuate. See Regions R31 through R42 in Table 61.

3 DEMAND ESTIMATION The estimates of demand, expressed in terms of people and vehicles, constitute a critical element in developing an evacuation plan. These estimates consist of three components:

1. An estimate of population within the EPZ, stratified into groups (resident, employee, transient).
2. An estimate, for each population group, of mean occupancy per evacuating vehicle. This estimate is used to determine the number of evacuating vehicles.
3. An estimate of potential doublecounting of vehicles.

Appendix E presents much of the source material for the population estimates. Our primary source of population data, the 2020 U.S. Census, is not adequate for directly estimating some transient groups.

Throughout the year, vacationers and tourists enter the EPZ. These nonresidents may dwell within the EPZ for a short period (e.g., a few days or one or two weeks), or may enter and leave within one day. Estimates of the size of these population components must be obtained, so that the associated number of evacuating vehicles can be ascertained.

The potential for doublecounting people and vehicles must be addressed. For example:

A resident who works and shops within the EPZ could be counted as a resident, again as an employee and once again as a shopper.

A visitor who stays at a hotel and spends time at a park, then goes shopping could be counted three times.

Furthermore, the number of vehicles at a location depends on time of day. For example, motel parking lots may be full at dawn and empty at noon. Similarly, parking lots at area parks, which are full at noon, may be almost empty at dawn. Estimating counts of vehicles by simply adding up the capacities of different types of parking facilities will tend to overestimate the number of transients and can lead to ETE that are too conservative.

Analysis of the population characteristics of the LGS EPZ indicates the need to identify three distinct groups:

Permanent residents people who are yea-round residents of the EPZ.

Transients - people who reside outside of the EPZ who enter the area for a specific purpose (shopping, recreation) and then leave the area.

Employees - people who reside outside of the EPZ and commute to work within the EPZ on a daily basis.

Estimates of the population and number of evacuating vehicles for each of the population groups are presented for each Subarea and by polar coordinate representation (population rose). The LGS EPZ is subdivided into 43 Subareas. The Subareas comprising the EPZ are shown in Figure 31.

Limerick Generating Station 31 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

3.1 Permanent Residents The primary source for estimating permanent population is the 2020 U.S. Census data with an availability date of September 16, 2021. The average household size (2.68 persons/household was estimated using the U.S. Census data - See Section 2.1 and Appendix F). The number of evacuating vehicles per household (1.44 vehicles/household - See Appendix F, SubSection F.3.2) was adapted from the demographic survey.

The permanent resident population is estimated by cutting the census block polygons by the Subarea and EPZ boundaries using GIS software. A ratio of the original area of each census block and the updated area (after cutting) is multiplied by the total block population to estimate the population within the EPZ. This methodology (referred to as the area ratio method) assumes that the population is evenly distributed across a census block. Table 31 summarizes the permanent resident population within the EPZ, by Subarea, for 2010 and for 2020 (based on the methodology above). As indicated, the permanent resident population within the EPZ has increased by 7.50% since the 2010 Census.

To estimate the number of vehicles, the 2020 Census permanent resident population is divided by the average household size and then multiplied by the average number of evacuating vehicles per household. Permanent resident population and vehicle estimates are presented in Table 32. Figure 32 and Figure 33 present the permanent resident population and permanent resident vehicle estimates by sector and distance from the LGS. This population rose was constructed using GIS software. Note, the 2020 Census includes residents living in group quarters, such as skilled nursing facilities, group homes, college/university student housing, prisons, etc. These people are transit dependent (will not evacuate in personal vehicles) and are included in the special facility evacuation demand estimates. To avoid double counting vehicles, the vehicle estimates for these people have been removed. The resident vehicles in Table 32 and Figure 33 have been adjusted accordingly.

3.2 Shadow Population A portion of the population living outside the evacuation area extending to 15 miles radially from the LGS may elect to evacuate without having been instructed to do so. This area is called the Shadow Region. Based upon NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1 guidance, it is assumed that 20% of the permanent resident population, based on U.S. Census Bureau data, in this Shadow Region will elect to evacuate.

Shadow population characteristics (household size, evacuating vehicles per household, mobilization time) are assumed to be the same as that for the EPZ permanent resident population. Table 33, Figure 34, and Figure 35 present estimates of the shadow population and vehicles, by sector. Similar to the EPZ resident vehicle estimates, resident vehicles at group quarters have been removed from the shadow population vehicle demand in Table 33 and Figure 35.

3.3 Transient Population Transient population groups are defined as those people (who are not permanent residents, nor commuting employees) who enter the EPZ for a specific purpose (shopping, recreation).

Transients may spend less than one day or stay overnight at camping facilities, hotels and motels. Data for transient attractions were provided by the counties within the EPZ. When data could not be provided, transient vehicles were estimated based on the parking capacity obtained from aerial imagery or from information on the facility website. It is assumed that transients travel to the recreational areas as a family/household. As such, the average household size (2.68 persons per household - See Section 3.1) was used to estimate the transient population for those facilities in which exact data could not be obtained. The transient attractions within the LGS EPZ are summarized as follows:

Campgrounds - 915 transients and 305 vehicles; 3.00 transients per vehicle (Note that RVs are represented as 2 passenger car equivalents.)

Parks - 3,044 transients and 1,188 vehicles; 2.56 transients per vehicle (Note that local parks are not included; visitors to these facilities are local residents and have already been counted as permanent residents in Section 3.1.)

Greater Philadelphia Expo Center - 1,800 transients and 900 vehicles; 2.00 transients per vehicle Shopping Centers - 9,379 transients and 4,261 vehicles; 2.20 transients per vehicle.

(Note that Providence Town Center and Costco Wholesale have 4,400 and 642 parking spots, respectively. It was assumed that at peak times 50% of the parking lots are full and 25% of these vehicles are commuting outside of the EPZ.)

Appendix E summarizes the transient data that was gathered for the EPZ. Table E5 presents the number of transients visiting recreational areas, while Table E6 presents the number of transients at lodging facilities within the EPZ.

In total, there are 17,003 transients in the EPZ at peak times, evacuating in 7,699 vehicles (an average vehicle occupancy of 2.21 transients per vehicle). Table 34 presents transient population and transient vehicle estimates by Subarea. Figure 36 and Figure 37 present these data by sector and distance from the plant.

3.4 Employees Employees who work within the EPZ fall into two categories:

Those who live and work in the EPZ Those who live outside of the EPZ and commute to jobs within the EPZ.

Those of the first category are already counted as part of the permanent resident population. To avoid double counting, we focus only on those employees commuting from outside the EPZ who will evacuate along with the permanent resident population.

The counties within the EPZ provided employment data for a list of employers within the EPZ and Constellation provided the data for the LGS. This data includes the maximum shift Limerick Generating Station 33 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

employment and percent of employees living outside of the EPZ for each employer. As per the federal guidance (NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1), employers with 200 or more employees working in a single shift are considered to be major employers. As such, the employers not meeting this criterion are not considered in this study.

In total, there are 5,716 employees commuting into the EPZ on a daily basis. To estimate the number of evacuating employee vehicles, 1.04 employees per vehicle obtained from the demographic survey (see Appendix F, SubSection F.3.1) was used for all the major employers.

The detailed information for each major employer is included in Appendix E, Table E4. Table 35 presents the estimates of employees and vehicles commuting into the EPZ by Sub area. Figure 38 and Figure 39 present these data by sector.

3.5 Medical Facilities Data were provided by the counties for each of the medical facilities within the EPZ, supplemented by online searches and the previous study where data was missing. Table E3 in Appendix E summarizes the data provided. Table 36. presents the current census of medical facilities in the EPZ along with the breakdown of ambulatory, wheelchair bound, and bedridden patients. As shown in this table, a total of 2,765 people has been identified as living in or being treated in these facilities.

The transportation requirements for the special facility population are also presented in Table

36. The number of ambulance runs is determined by assuming that 2 patients can be accommodated per ambulance trip, the number of wheelchair bus runs assumes 15 wheelchairs patients per trip, and the number of bus runs estimated assumes 30 ambulatory patients per trip.

3.6 Transit Dependent Population The demographic survey (see Appendix F) results were used to estimate the portion of the population requiring transit service:

  • Those persons in households that do not have a vehicle available.
  • Those persons in households that do have vehicle(s) that would not be available at the time the evacuation is advised.

In the latter group, the vehicle(s) may be used by a commuter(s) who does not return (or is not expected to return) home to evacuate the household.

Table 37 presents estimates of transitdependent people. Note:

  • Estimates of persons requiring transit vehicles include schoolchildren. For those evacuation scenarios where children are at school when an evacuation is ordered, separate transportation is provided for the schoolchildren. The actual need for transit vehicles by residents is thereby less than the given estimates. However, estimates of transit vehicles are not reduced when schools are in session.

Limerick Generating Station 34 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

  • It is reasonable and appropriate to consider that many transitdependent persons will evacuate by ridesharing with neighbors, friends or family. For example, nearly 80% of those who evacuated from Mississauga, Ontario3 who did not use their own cars, shared a ride with neighbors or friends. Other documents report that approximately 70% of transit dependent persons were evacuated via ride sharing.

Based on the results of the demographic survey, 68% of the transitdependent population will rideshare.

The estimated number of bus trips needed to service transitdependent persons is based on an estimate of average bus occupancy of 30 persons at the conclusion of the bus run. Transit vehicle seating capacities typically equal or exceed 60 children (roughly equivalent to 40 adults). If transit vehicle evacuees are two thirds adults and one third children, then the number of adult seats taken by 30 persons is 20 + (2/3 x10) = 27. On this basis, the average load factor anticipated is (27/40) x 100 = 68%. Thus, if the actual demand for service exceeds the estimates of Table 37 by 50 percent, the demand for service can still be accommodated by the available bus seating capacity.

2 20 10 40 1.5 1.00 3

Table 37 indicates that transportation must be provided for 4,607 people. Therefore, a total of 154 buses are required from a capacity standpoint. The transitdependent population by Sub area was estimated by multiplying the total transitdependent population by the ratio of the Subarea permanent resident population to the EPZ permanent resident population. In order to service all of the transit dependent population and have at least one bus drive through each of the Subareas to pick up transit dependent people, 175 buses are used in the ETE calculations; see Section 10 for further discussion. These buses are represented as two vehicles in the ETE simulations due to their larger size and more sluggish operating characteristics.

To illustrate this estimation procedure, we calculate the number of persons, P, requiring public transit or rideshare, and the number of buses, B, required for the LGS EPZ:

A = Percent of households with commuters C = Percent of households who will not await the return of a commuter 3

Institute for Environmental Studies, University of Toronto, THE MISSISSAUGA EVACUATION FINAL REPORT, June 1981. The report indicates that 6,600 people of a transit-dependent population of 8,600 people shared rides with other residents; a ride share rate of 77% (Page 5-10).

Limerick Generating Station 35 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

117,176 0.002 2.33 0.142 1.71 1 0.84 0.43 0.57 3.10 2 0.84 0.43 14,398 0.68 1 30 154 These calculations are explained as follows:

  • The number of households (HH) is computed by dividing the EPZ population by the average household size (314,033 ÷ 2.68) and is 117,176.
  • All members (2.33 avg.) of households (HH) with no vehicles (0.2%) will evacuate by public transit or rideshare. The term 117,176 (number of households) x 0.002 x 2.33, accounts for these people.
  • The members of HH with 1 vehicle away (14.2%), who are at home, equal (1.711).

The number of HH where the commuter will not return home is equal to (117,176 x 0.142 x 0.71 x 0.84 x 0.43), as 84% of EPZ households have a commuter, 43% of which would not return home in the event of an emergency. The number of persons who will evacuate by public transit or rideshare is equal to the product of these two terms.

  • The members of HH with 2 vehicles that are away (57%), who are at home, equal (3.10 - 2). The number of HH where neither commuter will return home is equal to 117,176 x 1.10 x (0.84 x 0.43)2. The number of persons who will evacuate by public transit or rideshare is equal to the product of these two terms (the last term is squared to represent the probability that neither commuter will return).
  • Households with 3 or more vehicles are assumed to have no need for transit vehicles.
  • The total number of persons requiring public transit is the sum of such people in HH with no vehicles, or with 1 or 2 vehicles that are away from home.
  • The number of buses needed is computed as the product of the number of people requiring public transit and the percentage of people who will not rideshare (100%

minus 68%) divided by the bus occupancy (30 passengers - see Section 2.4, Item 3b).

The estimate of transitdependent population in Table 37 far exceeds the number of registered transitdependent persons in the EPZ as provided by the counties (discussed below in Section 3.9). This is consistent with the findings of NUREG/CR6953, Volume 2, in that a large majority of the transitdependent population within the EPZs of U.S. nuclear plants do not register with their local emergency response agency.

3.7 School Population Demand Table 38 presents the school population and transportation requirements for the direct evacuation of all schools within the EPZ for the 20202021 school year. This information was provided by the counties supplemented by internet searches where no data was provided. The column in Table 38 entitled Buses Required specifies the number of buses required for each school under the following set of assumptions and estimates:

  • No students will be picked up by their parents prior to the arrival of the buses.

Limerick Generating Station 36 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

  • While many high school students commute to school using private automobiles (as discussed in Section 2.4 of NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1), the estimate of buses required for school evacuation does not consider the use of these private vehicles, since the intent of schools is to evacuate all students by bus.
  • Bus capacity, expressed in students per bus, is set to 70 for primary schools and 50 for middle and high schools.
  • Those staff members who do not accompany the students will evacuate in their private vehicles.
  • No allowance is made for student absenteeism, which is typically 3% daily.

3.7.1 Colleges and Universities There are two college/university campuses within the EPZ: Ursinus College and University of Valley Forge. The enrollment data was obtained from the National Application Center4 (NAC) database, as of December 2021. The data/information is summarized below:

Ursinus College:

Located in Collegeville, 7.3 miles eastsoutheast of the LGS.

Data found online indicates this college has a total enrollment of 1,408 fulltime students and 97% of these students live oncampus5. Thus, 1,366 (1,408 x 0.97) students are oncampus students and the remaining 42 (1,408 - 1,366) students are offcampus students.

Using aerial imagery, student parking lots were located, and the parking spaces (908 parking spaces in total) were counted on campus to estimate the upper bound of student vehicles on campus. As such, a total of 908 evacuating vehicles was assigned to this college.

It is assumed that all the offcampus students own personal vehicles (42 offcampus vehicles) and the remaining parking spaces are for oncampus students, which is 866 (908 - 42) parking spaces.

In the event of an emergency, it is assumed all the students have access to their personal vehicles or assistance from their fellow classmates to evacuate. A total of 1,408 students evacuating in 908 vehicles is assigned to this university.

University of Valley Forge:

Located in Schuylkill, 7.6 miles southsoutheast of the LGS.

The NAC database shows this university has a total enrollment of 398 fulltime students and 72% of them live on campus. As such, there are 287 (398 x 72%) oncampus students and 111 (398 - 287) offcampus students.

In the event of an emergency, it is assumed all the students have access to their personal vehicles.

It is conservatively assumed that all the oncampus students own personal vehicles. As 4

5 https://www.ursinus.edu/student-life/housing/

Limerick Generating Station 37 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

such, there are 287 oncampus student vehicles.

Since commuter students have the similar travel patterns as the commuters in the EPZ, the commuter vehicle occupancy rate (1.04 - see Appendix F, SubSection F.3.1) obtained from the demographic survey was used to estimate the number of offcampus student vehicles, resulting in 107 (111 ÷ 1.04) offcampus student vehicles.

A total of 398 students evacuating in 394 vehicles is assigned to this university.

Table 38 also includes commuter students at colleges. The column in Table 38 entitled Student Vehicles specifies the number of student vehicles at the school parking lots during an evacuation.

It is recommended that the counties in the EPZ introduce procedures whereby the schools are contacted prior to the dispatch of buses from the depot, to ascertain the current estimate of students to be evacuated. In this way, the number of buses dispatched to the schools will reflect the actual number needed. The need for buses would be reduced by any high school students who have evacuated using private automobiles (if permitted by school authorities).

Those buses originally allocated to evacuate schoolchildren that are not needed due to children being picked up by their parents, can be gainfully assigned to service other facilities or those persons who do not have access to private vehicles or to ridesharing.

Table 104 presents a list of the host schools for the school districts within the EPZ. Students will be transported to these host schools where they will be subsequently retrieved by their respective families or guardians.

3.8 Special Event One special event (Scenario 13) is considered for the ETE study6 - the Phoenixville Firebird Festival, which occurs annually in December (winter) on a weekend in the evening. The festival is located in downtown Phoenixville and the exact location of the event varies from year to year.

Using the data from the previous ETE study, supplemented by internet searches7, it was estimated that there are 15,000 people that attend this event, 40% of attendees are transients (nonEPZ residents), and the average household size (2.68 people) was used as the vehicles occupancy rate. It should be noted that due to the COVID19 pandemic, in 2021, this event was limited to 1,000 people. It was assumed that in the future, event attendance will return to pre pandemic rates.

This results in 6,000 (15,000 x 0.40 = 6,000) additional transients in 2,239 (6,000 2.68 = 2,239) vehicles which are added to the roadway network throughout the town of Phoenixville. The special event vehicle trips were generated utilizing the same mobilization distributions as transients.

6 A second event, County Spirit Music Festival, was mentioned by Chester County but it was not considered as it attracts similar number of transients into the EPZ.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

Shuttle buses are used to transport attendees from parking lots to the festival site; however, these shuttle buses would not be used to evacuate attendees. It is assumed that the time to shuttle attendees to parking lots or for attendees to walk to their vehicles is within the 90 minute mobilization time for transients discussed in Section 5. It is assumed any temporary road closures that are used for the parade portion of the festival, could be quickly reopened in the event of an emergency.

3.9 Access and/or Functional Needs Population Counties within the EPZ confirmed the access and/or functional needs population was still accurate from the 2012 study. It was estimated that there are an estimated 264 access and/or functional needs people within the EPZ who require transportation assistance to evacuate.

Table 39 summarizes the data provided. Approximately 242 transit dependent people would require a wheelchair capable vehicle and 22 would require an ambulance.

The transportation requirements for the access and/or functional needs population are also presented in Table 39. The number of ambulance runs is determined by assuming that 2 patients can be accommodated per ambulance trip and the number of wheelchair bus runs assumes 15 wheelchairs per trip.

3.10 Correctional Facilities As detailed in Table E7, there are two correctional facilities within the EPZ - Montgomery County Correctional Facility and Graterford State Correctional Institution. The total inmate capacity of these facilities is 4,957 persons. County emergency personal indicated that these facilities will shelterinplace.

3.11 External Traffic Vehicles will be traveling through the EPZ (externalexternal trips) at the time of an accident.

After the Advisory to Evacuate is announced, these throughtravelers will also evacuate. These through vehicles are assumed to travel on the major routes traversing the EPZ - I476, Route 309, I76, I276, US 202, US 30 and US 422. It is assumed that this traffic will continue to enter the EPZ during the first 120 minutes following the Advisory to Evacuate.

Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) data was obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation website to estimate the number of vehicles per hour on the aforementioned routes. The AADT was multiplied by the KFactor, which is the proportion of the AADT on a roadway segment or link during the design hour, resulting in the design hour volume (DHV).

The design hour is usually the 30th highest hourly traffic volume of the year, measured in vehicles per hour (vph). The DHV is then multiplied by the DFactor, which is the proportion of the DHV occurring in the peak direction of travel (also known as the directional split). The resulting values are the directional design hourly volumes (DDHV) and are presented in Table 310, for each of the routes considered. The DDHV is then multiplied by 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> (access control points - ACP - are assumed to be activated at 120 minutes after the advisory to evacuate) to Limerick Generating Station 39 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

estimate the total number of external vehicles loaded on the analysis network. As indicated, there are 45,508 vehicles entering the study area as externalexternal trips prior to the activation of the ACP and the diversion of this traffic. This number is reduced by 60% for evening scenarios (Scenarios 5, 12 and 13) as discussed in Section 6.

3.12 Background Traffic Section 5 discusses the time needed for the people in the EPZ to mobilize and begin their evacuation trips. As shown in Table 59, there are 14 time periods during which traffic is loaded on to roadways in the study area to model the mobilization time of people in the EPZ. Note, there is no traffic generated during the 15th time period, as this time period is intended to allow traffic that has already begun evacuating to clear the study area boundaries.

This study does not assume that roadways are empty at the start of Time Period 1. Rather, there is an initialization time period (often referred to as fill time in traffic simulation) wherein the traffic volumes from Time Period 1 are loaded onto roadways in the study area.

The amount of initialization/fill traffic that is on the roadways in the study area at the start of Time Period 1 depends on the scenario and the region being evacuated (see Section 6). There are 9,068 vehicles on the roadways in the study area at the end of fill time for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) under Scenario 1 (summer, midweek, midday, good weather) conditions.

3.13 Summary of Demand A summary of population and vehicle demand is provided in Table 311 and Table 312, respectively. This summary includes all population groups described in this section. A total of 477,239 people and 261,280 vehicles are considered in this study.

4 ESTIMATION OF HIGHWAY CAPACITY The ability of the road network to service vehicle demand is a major factor in determining how rapidly an evacuation can be completed. The capacity of a road is defined as the maximum hourly rate at which persons or vehicles can reasonably be expected to traverse a point or uniform section of a lane of roadway during a given time period under prevailing roadway, traffic, and control conditions, as stated in the 2016 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 2016). This section discusses how the capacity of the roadway network was estimated.

In discussing capacity, different operating conditions have been assigned alphabetical designations, A through F, to reflect the range of traffic operational characteristics. These designations have been termed "Levels of Service" (LOS). For example, LOS A connotes freeflow and highspeed operating conditions; LOS F represents a forced flow condition. LOS E describes traffic operating at or near capacity.

Another concept, closely associated with capacity, is Service Volume. Service volume (SV) is defined as The maximum hourly rate at which vehicles, bicycles or persons reasonably can be expected to traverse a point or uniform section of a roadway during an hour under specific assumed conditions while maintaining a designated level of service. This definition is similar to that for capacity. The major distinction is that values of SV vary from one LOS to another, while capacity is the SV at the upper bound of LOS E, only.

Thus, in simple terms, a SV is the maximum traffic that can travel on a road and still maintain a certain perceived level of quality to a driver based on the A, B, C, rating system (LOS). Any additional vehicles above the SV would drop the rating to a lower letter grade.

This distinction is illustrated in Exhibit 1237 of the HCM 2016. As indicated there, the SV varies with Free Flow Speed (FFS), and LOS. The SV is calculated by the DYNEV II simulation model, based on the specified link attributes, FFS, capacity, control device and traffic demand.

Other factors also influence capacity. These include, but are not limited to:

Lane width Shoulder width Pavement condition Horizontal and vertical alignment (curvature and grade)

Percent truck traffic Control device (and timing, if it is a signal)

Weather conditions (rain, snow, fog, wind speed, ice)

These factors are considered during the road survey and in the capacity estimation process; some factors have greater influence on capacity than others. For example, lane and shoulder width have only a limited influence on Base Free Flow Speed (BFFS1) according to Exhibit 157 of the HCM. Consequently, lane and shoulder widths at the narrowest points were observed during the road survey and these observations were recorded, but no detailed measurements 1

A very rough estimate of BFFS might be taken as the posted speed limit plus 10 mph (HCM 2016 Page 15-15)

Limerick Generating Station 41 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

of lane or shoulder width were taken. Horizontal and vertical alignment can influence both FFS and capacity. The estimated FFS were measured using the survey vehicles speedometer and observing local traffic, under free flow conditions. Capacity is estimated from the procedures of the HCM 2016. For example, HCM Exhibit 71(b) shows the sensitivity of SV at the upper bound of LOS D to grade (capacity is the SV at the upper bound of LOS E).

The amount of traffic that can flow on a roadway is effectively governed by vehicle speed and spacing. The faster that vehicles can travel when closely spaced, the higher the amount of flow.

As discussed in Section 2.6, it is necessary to adjust capacity figures to represent the prevailing conditions. Adverse conditions like inclement weather, construction, and other incidents tend to slow traffic down and often, also increase vehicletovehicles separation, thus decreasing the amount of traffic flow. Based on limited empirical data, conditions such as rain reduce the values of freeflow speed and of highway capacity by approximately 10%. Over the last decade new studies have been made on the effects of rain on traffic capacity. These studies indicate a range of effects between 5% and 25% depending on wind speed and precipitation rates. As indicated in Section 2.6, we employ, a reduction in free speed and in highway capacity of 10%

for rain/light snow. The free speed and highway capacity reductions are 15% and 25%,

respectively, during heavy snow conditions.

Since congestion arising from evacuation may be significant, estimates of roadway capacity must be determined with great care. Because of its importance, a brief discussion of the major factors that influence highway capacity is presented in this section.

Rural highways generally consist of: (1) one or more uniform sections with limited access (driveways, parking areas) characterized by uninterrupted flow; and (2) approaches to at grade intersections where flow can be interrupted by a control device or by turning or crossing traffic at the intersection. Due to these differences, separate estimates of capacity must be made for each section. Often, the approach to the intersection is widened by the addition of one or more lanes (turn pockets or turn bays), to compensate for the lower capacity of the approach due to the factors there that can interrupt the flow of traffic. These additional lanes are recorded during the field survey and later entered as input to the DYNEV II system.

4.1 Capacity Estimations on Approaches to Intersections Atgrade intersections are apt to become the first bottleneck locations under local heavy traffic volume conditions. This characteristic reflects the need to allocate access time to the respective competing traffic streams by exerting some form of control. During evacuation, control at critical intersections will often be provided by traffic control personnel assigned for that purpose, whose directions may supersede traffic control devices. See Appendix G for more information.

The perlane capacity of an approach to a signalized intersection can be expressed (simplistically) in the following form:

Limerick Generating Station 42 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

3600 3600 where:

Qcap,m = Capacity of a single lane of traffic on an approach, which executes movement, m, upon entering the intersection; vehicles per hour (vph) hm = Mean queue discharge headway of vehicles on this lane that are executing movement, m; seconds per vehicle G = Mean duration of GREEN time servicing vehicles that are executing movement, m, for each signal cycle; seconds L = Mean "lost time" for each signal phase servicing movement, m; seconds C = Duration of each signal cycle; seconds Pm = Proportion of GREEN time allocated for vehicles executing movement, m, from this lane. This value is specified as part of the control treatment.

m = The movement executed by vehicles after they enter the intersection: through, leftturn, rightturn, and diagonal.

The turnmovementspecific mean discharge headway hm, depends in a complex way upon many factors: roadway geometrics, turn percentages, the extent of conflicting traffic streams, the control treatment, and others. A primary factor is the value of "saturation queue discharge headway", hsat, which applies to through vehicles that are not impeded by other conflicting traffic streams. This value, itself, depends upon many factors including motorist behavior.

Formally, we can write, where:

hsat = Saturation discharge headway for through vehicles; seconds per vehicle F1,F2 = The various known factors influencing hm fm( ) = Complex function relating hm to the known (or estimated) values of hsat, F1, F2, Limerick Generating Station 43 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

The estimation of hm for specified values of hsat, F1, F2, ... is undertaken within the DYNEV II simulation model by a mathematical model2. The resulting values for hm always satisfy the condition:

That is, the turnmovementspecific discharge headways are always greater than, or equal to the saturation discharge headway for through vehicles. These headways (or its inverse equivalent, saturation flow rate), may be determined by observation or using the procedures of the HCM 2016.

The above discussion is necessarily brief given the scope of this ETE report and the complexity of the subject of intersection capacity. In fact, Chapters 19, 20 and 21 in the HCM 2016 address this topic. The factors, F1, F2, , influencing saturation flow rate are identified in equation (198) of the HCM 2016.

The traffic signals within the EPZ and Shadow Region are modeled using representative phasing plans and phase durations obtained as part of the field data collection. Traffic responsive signal installations allow the proportion of green time allocated (Pm) for each approach to each intersection, to be determined by the expected traffic volumes on each approach during evacuation circumstances. The amount of green time (G) allocated is subject to maximum and minimum phase duration constraints; 2 seconds of yellow time are indicated for each signal phase and 1 second of allred time is assigned between signal phases, typically. If a signal is pre timed, the yellow and allred times observed during the road survey are used. A lost time (L) of 2.0 seconds is used for each signal phase in the analysis.

4.2 Capacity Estimation along Sections of Highway The capacity of highway sections - as distinct from approaches to intersections - is a function of roadway geometrics, traffic composition (e.g., percent heavy trucks and buses in the traffic stream) and, of course, motorist behavior. There is a fundamental relationship which relates SV (i.e., the number of vehicles serviced within a uniform highway section in a given time period) to traffic density. The top curve in Figure 41 illustrates this relationship.

As indicated, there are two flow regimes: (1) Free Flow (left side of curve); and (2) Forced Flow (right side). In the Free Flow regime, the traffic demand is fully serviced; the SV increases as demand volume and density increase, until the SV attains its maximum value, which is the capacity of the highway section. As traffic demand and the resulting highway density increase beyond this "critical" value, the rate at which traffic can be serviced (i.e., the SV) can actually decline below capacity (capacity drop). Therefore, in order to realistically represent traffic performance during congested conditions (i.e., when demand exceeds capacity), it is necessary to estimate the service volume, VF, under congested conditions.

The value of VF can be expressed as:

where:

R = Reduction factor which is less than unity We have employed a value of R=0.90. The advisability of such a capacity reduction factor is based upon empirical studies that identified a falloff in the service flow rate when congestion occurs at bottlenecks or choke points on a freeway system. Zhang and Levinson3 describe a research program that collected data from a computerbased surveillance system (loop detectors) installed on the Interstate Highway System, at 27 active bottlenecks in the twin cities metro area in Minnesota over a 7week period. When flow breakdown occurs, queues are formed which discharge at lower flow rates than the maximum capacity prior to observed breakdown. These queue discharge flow (QDF) rates vary from one location to the next and also vary by day of week and time of day based upon local circumstances. The cited reference presents a mean QDF of 2,016 passenger cars per hour per lane (pcphpl). This figure compares with the nominal capacity estimate of 2,250 pcphpl estimated for the ETE for freeway links. The ratio of these two numbers is 0.896 which translates into a capacity reduction factor of 0.90.

Since the principal objective of ETE analyses is to develop a realistic estimate of evacuation times, use of the representative value for this capacity reduction factor (R=0.90) is justified. This factor is applied only when flow breaks down, as determined by the simulation model.

Rural roads, like freeways, are classified as uninterrupted flow facilities. (This is in contrast with urban street systems which have closely spaced signalized intersections and are classified as interrupted flow facilities.) As such, traffic flow along rural roads is subject to the same effects as freeways in the event traffic demand exceeds the nominal capacity, resulting in queuing and lower QDF rates. As a practical matter, rural roads rarely break down at locations away from intersections. Any breakdowns on rural roads are generally experienced at intersections where other model logic applies, or at lane drops which reduce capacity there.

Therefore, the application of a factor of 0.90 is appropriate on rural roads, but rarely, if ever, activated.

The estimated value of capacity is based primarily upon the type of facility and on roadway geometrics. Sections of roadway with adverse geometrics are characterized by lower freeflow speeds and lane capacity. Exhibit 1546 in the HCM 2016 was referenced to estimate saturation flow rates. The impact of narrow lanes and shoulders on freeflow speed and on capacity is not material, particularly when flow is predominantly in one direction as is the case during an evacuation.

The procedure used here was to estimate "section" capacity, VE, based on observations made traveling over each section of the evacuation network, based on the posted speed limits and travel behavior of other motorists and by reference to the HCM 2016. The DYNEV II simulation model determines for each highway section, represented as a network link, whether its 3

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

capacity would be limited by the "sectionspecific" service volume, VE, or by the intersectionspecific capacity. For each link, the model selects the lower value of capacity.

4.3 Application to the LGS Study Area As part of the development of the linknode analysis network for the study area, an estimate of roadway capacity is required. The source material for the capacity estimates presented herein is contained in:

2016 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM)

Transportation Research Board National Research Council Washington, D.C.

The highway system in the study area consists primarily of three categories of roads and, of course, intersections:

TwoLane roads: Local, State Multilane Highways (atgrade)

Freeways Each of these classifications will be discussed.

4.3.1 TwoLane Roads Ref: HCM Chapter 15 Two lane roads comprise the majority of highways within the study area. The perlane capacity of a twolane highway is estimated at 1,700 passenger cars per hour (pc/h). This estimate is essentially independent of the directional distribution of traffic volume except that, for extended distances, the twoway capacity will not exceed 3,200 pc/h. The HCM procedures then estimate LOS and Average Travel Speed. The DYNEV II simulation model accepts the specified value of capacity as input and computes average speed based on the timevarying demand: capacity relations.

Based on the field survey and on expected traffic operations associated with evacuation scenarios:

Most sections of twolane roads within the study area is classified as Class I, with "level terrain"; some are rolling terrain.

Class II highways are mostly those within urban and suburban centers.

4.3.2 Multilane Highway Ref: HCM Chapter 12 Exhibit 128 of the HCM 2016 presents a set of curves that indicate a perlane capacity ranging from approximately 1,900 to 2,300 pc/h, for freespeeds of 45 to 70 mph, respectively. Based on observation, the multilane highways outside of urban areas within the study area, service Limerick Generating Station 46 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

traffic with freespeeds in this range. The actual timevarying speeds computed by the simulation model reflect the demand and capacity relationship and the impact of control at intersections. A conservative estimate of perlane capacity of 1,900 pc/h is adopted for this study for multilane highways outside of urban areas.

4.3.3 Freeways Ref: HCM Chapters 10, 12, 13, 14 Chapter 10 of the HCM 2016 describes a procedure for integrating the results obtained in Chapters 12, 13 and 14, which compute capacity and LOS for freeway components. Chapter 10 also presents a discussion of simulation models. The DYNEV II simulation model automatically performs this integration process.

Chapter 12 of the HCM 2016 presents procedures for estimating capacity and LOS for Basic Freeway Segments". Exhibit 1237 of the HCM 2016 presents capacity vs. free speed estimates, which are provided below.

Free Speed (mph): 55 60 65 70+

PerLane Capacity (pc/h): 2,250 2,300 2,350 2,400 The inputs to the simulation model are highway geometrics, freespeeds and capacity based on field observations. The simulation logic calculates actual timevarying speeds based on demand:

capacity relationships. A conservative estimate of perlane capacity of 2,250 pc/h is adopted for this study for freeways.

Chapter 13 of the HCM 2016 presents procedures for estimating capacity, speed, density and LOS for freeway weaving sections. The simulation model contains logic that relates speed to demand volume: capacity ratio. The value of capacity obtained from the computational procedures detailed in Chapter 13 depends on the "Type" and geometrics of the weaving segment and on the "Volume Ratio" (ratio of weaving volume to total volume).

Chapter 14 of the HCM 2016 presents procedures for estimating capacities of ramps and of "merge" areas. There are three significant factors to the determination of capacity of a ramp freeway junction: The capacity of the freeway immediately downstream of an onramp or immediately upstream of an offramp; the capacity of the ramp roadway; and the maximum flow rate entering the ramp influence area. In most cases, the freeway capacity is the controlling factor. Values of this merge area capacity are presented in Exhibit 1410 of the HCM 2016 and depend on the number of freeway lanes and on the freeway free speed. Ramp capacity is presented in Exhibit 1412 and is a function of the ramp FFS. The DYNEV II simulation model logic simulates the merging operations of the ramp and freeway traffic in accord with the procedures in Chapter 14 of the HCM 2016. If congestion results from an excess of demand relative to capacity, then the model allocates service appropriately to the two entering traffic streams and produces LOS F conditions (The HCM does not address LOS F explicitly).

4.3.4 Intersections Ref: HCM Chapters 19, 20, 21, 22 Procedures for estimating capacity and LOS for approaches to intersections are presented in Chapter 19 (signalized intersections), Chapters 20, 21 (unsignalized intersections) and Chapter 22 (roundabouts). The complexity of these computations is indicated by the aggregate length of these chapters. The DYNEV II simulation logic is likewise complex.

The simulation model explicitly models intersections: Stop/yield controlled intersections (both 2way and allway) and traffic signal controlled intersections. Where intersections are controlled by fixed time controllers, traffic signal timings are set to reflect average (non evacuation) traffic conditions. Actuated traffic signal settings respond to the timevarying demands of evacuation traffic to adjust the relative capacities of the competing intersection approaches.

The model is also capable of modeling the presence of manned traffic control. At specific locations where it is advisable or where existing plans call for overriding existing traffic control to implement manned control, the model will use actuated signal timings that reflect the presence of traffic guides. At locations where a special traffic control strategy (continuous left turns, contraflow lanes) is used, the strategy is modeled explicitly. A list that includes the total number of intersections modeled that are unsignalized, signalized, or manned by response personnel is provided in Appendix K.

4.4 Simulation and Capacity Estimation Chapter 6 of the HCM is entitled, HCM and Alternative Analysis Tools. The chapter discusses the use of alternative tools such as simulation modeling to evaluate the operational performance of highway networks. Among the reasons cited in Chapter 6 to consider using simulation as an alternative analysis tool is:

The system under study involves a group of different facilities or travel modes with mutual interactions involving several HCM chapters. Alternative tools are able to analyze these facilities as a single system.

This statement succinctly describes the analyses required to determine traffic operations across an area encompassing a study area operating under evacuation conditions. The model utilized for this study, DYNEV II is further described in Appendix C. It is essential to recognize that simulation models do not replicate the methodology and procedures of the HCM - they replace these procedures by describing the complex interactions of traffic flow and computing Measures of Effectiveness (MOE) detailing the operational performance of traffic over time and by location. The DYNEV II simulation model includes some HCM 2016 procedures only for the purpose of estimating capacity.

All simulation models must be calibrated properly with field observations that quantify the performance parameters applicable to the analysis network. Two of the most important of these are: (1) FFS; and (2) saturation headway, hsat. The first of these is estimated by direct Limerick Generating Station 48 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

observation during the road survey; the second is estimated using the concepts of the HCM, as described earlier.

It is important to note that simulation represents a mathematical representation of an assumed set of conditions using the best available knowledge and understanding of traffic flow and available inputs. Simulation should not be assumed to be a prediction of what will happen under any event because a real evacuation can be impacted by an infinite number of things -

many of which will differ from these test cases - and many others cannot be taken into account with the tools available.

4.5 Boundary Conditions As illustrated in Figure 12 and in Appendix K, the linknode analysis network used for this study is finite. The analysis network extends well beyond the 15mile radial study area in some locations in order to model intersections with other major evacuation routes beyond the study area. However, the network does have an end at the destination (exit) nodes as discussed in Appendix C. Beyond these destination nodes, there may be signalized intersections or merge points that impact the capacity of the evacuation routes leaving the study area. Rather than neglect these boundary conditions, this study assumes a 25% reduction in capacity on two lane roads (Section 4.3.1 above) and multilane highways (Section 4.3.2 above) if there are traffic signals downstream. The 25% reduction in capacity is based on the prevalence of actuated traffic signals in the study area and the fact that the evacuating traffic volume (main street) will be more significant than the competing (side street) traffic volume at any downstream signalized intersections, thereby warranting a more significant percentage (75% in this case) of the signal green time. There is no reduction in capacity for freeways due to boundary conditions.

5 ESTIMATION OF TRIP GENERATION TIME Federal Government guidelines (see NUREG CR7002, Rev. 1) specify that the planner estimate the distributions of elapsed times associated with mobilization activities undertaken by the public to prepare for the evacuation trip. The elapsed time associated with each activity is represented as a statistical distribution reflecting differences between members of the public.

The quantification of these activitybased distributions relies largely on the results of the demographic survey. We define the sum of these distributions of elapsed times as the Trip Generation Time Distribution.

5.1 Background

In general, an accident at a nuclear power plant is characterized by the following Emergency Classification Levels (see Section C of Part IV of Appendix E of 10 CFR 50 for details):

1. Unusual Event
2. Alert
3. Site Area Emergency
4. General Emergency At each level, the federal guidelines specify a set of Actions to be undertaken by the licensee, and by state and local offsite authorities. As a Planning Basis, we will adopt a conservative posture, in accordance with Section 1.2 of NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1, that a rapidly escalating accident will be considered in calculating the Trip Generation Time. We will assume:
1. The Advisory to Evacuate (ATE) will be announced coincident with the siren notification.
2. Mobilization of the general population will commence within 15 minutes after the siren notification.
3. ETE are measured relative to the ATE.

We emphasize that the adoption of this planning basis is not a representation that these events will occur within the indicated time frame. Rather, these assumptions are necessary in order to:

1. Establish a temporal framework for estimating the Trip Generation distribution in the format recommended in Section 2.13 of NUREG/CR6863.
2. Identify temporal points of reference that uniquely define "Clear Time" and ETE.

It is likely that a longer time will elapse between the various classes of an emergency. For example, suppose one hour elapses from the siren alert to the Advisory to Evacuate. In this case, it is reasonable to expect some degree of spontaneous evacuation by the public during this onehour period. As a result, the population within the EPZ will be lower when the ATE is announced, than at the time of the siren alert. In addition, many will engage in preparation activities to evacuate, in anticipation that an ATE will be broadcast. Thus, the time needed to complete the mobilization activities and the number of people remaining to evacuate the EPZ after the ATE, will both be somewhat less than the estimates presented in this report.

Limerick Generating Station 51 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

Consequently, the ETE presented in this report are higher than the actual evacuation time, if this hypothetical situation were to take place.

The notification process consists of two events:

1. Transmitting information using the alert notification systems available within the EPZ (e.g., sirens, tone alerts, EAS broadcasts, loud speakers).
2. Receiving and correctly interpreting the information that is transmitted.

The population within the EPZ is dispersed over an area of approximately 360 square miles and is engaged in a wide variety of activities. It must be anticipated that some time will elapse between the transmission and receipt of the information advising the public of an accident.

The amount of elapsed time will vary from one individual to the next depending on where that person is, what that person is doing, and related factors. Furthermore, some persons who will be directly involved with the evacuation process may be outside the EPZ at the time the emergency is declared. These people may be commuters, shoppers and other travelers who reside within the EPZ and who will return to join the other household members upon receiving notification of an emergency.

As indicated in Section 2.13 of NUREG/CR6863, the estimated elapsed times for the receipt of notification can be expressed as a distribution reflecting the different notification times for different people within, and outside, the EPZ. By using time distributions, it is also possible to distinguish between different population groups and different dayofweek and timeofday scenarios, so that accurate ETE may be computed.

For example, people at home or at work within the EPZ will be notified by siren, and/or tone alert and/or radio (if available). Those well outside the EPZ will be notified by telephone, radio, TV and wordofmouth, with potentially longer time lags. Furthermore, the spatial distribution of the EPZ population will differ with time of day - families will be united in the evenings, but dispersed during the day. In this respect, weekends will differ from weekdays.

As indicated in Section 4.1 of NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1, the information required to compute trip generation times is typically obtained from a demographic survey of study area residents. Such a survey was conducted in support of this ETE study. Appendix F discusses the survey sampling plan, documents the survey instrument utilized, and provides the survey results. The remaining discussion will focus on the application of the trip generation data obtained from the demographic survey to the development of the ETE documented in this report.

5.2 Fundamental Considerations The environment leading up to the time that people begin their evacuation trips consists of a sequence of events and activities. Each event (other than the first) occurs at an instant in time and is the outcome of an activity.

Activities are undertaken over a period of time. Activities may be in "series" (i.e., to undertake an activity implies the completion of all preceding events) or may be in parallel (two or more activities may take place over the same period of time). Activities conducted in series are Limerick Generating Station 52 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

functionally dependent on the completion of prior activities; activities conducted in parallel are functionally independent of one another. The relevant events associated with the public's preparation for evacuation are:

Event Number Event Description 1 Notification 2 Awareness of Situation 3 Depart Work 4 Arrive Home 5 Depart on Evacuation Trip Associated with each sequence of events are one or more activities, as outlined in Table 51.

These relationships are shown graphically in Figure 51.

An Event is a state that exists at a point in time (e.g., depart work, arrive home)

An Activity is a process that takes place over some elapsed time (e.g., prepare to leave work, travel home)

As such, a completed Activity changes the state of an individual (e.g., the activity, travel home changes the state from depart work to arrive home). Therefore, an Activity can be described as an Event Sequence; the elapsed times to perform an event sequence vary from one person to the next and are described as statistical distributions on the following pages.

An employee who lives outside the EPZ will follow sequence (c) of Figure 51. A household within the EPZ that has one or more commuters at work, and will await their return before beginning the evacuation trip will follow the first sequence of Figure 51(a). A household within the EPZ that has no commuters at work, or that will not await the return of any commuters, will follow the second sequence of Figure 51(a), regardless of day of week or time of day.

Households with no commuters on weekends or in the evening/nighttime, will follow the applicable sequence in Figure 51(b). Transients will always follow one of the sequences of Figure 51(b). Some transients away from their residence could elect to evacuate immediately without returning to the residence, as indicated in the second sequence.

It is seen from Figure 51, that the Trip Generation time (i.e., the total elapsed time from Event 1 to Event 5) depends on the scenario and will vary from one household to the next.

Furthermore, Event 5 depends, in a complicated way, on the time distributions of all activities preceding that event. That is, to estimate the time distribution of Event 5, we must obtain estimates of the time distributions of all preceding events. For this study, we adopt the conservative posture that all activities will occur in sequence.

In some cases, assuming certain events occur strictly sequential (for instance, commuter returning home before beginning preparation to leave, or removing snow only after the preparation to leave) can result in rather conservative (that is, longer) estimates of mobilization Limerick Generating Station 53 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

times. It is reasonable to expect that at least some parts of these events will overlap for many households, but that assumption is not made in this study.

5.3 Estimated Time Distributions of Activities Preceding Event 5 The time distribution of an event is obtained by "summing" the time distributions of all prior contributing activities. (This "summing" process is quite different than an algebraic sum since it is performed on distributions - not scalar numbers).

Time Distribution No. 1, Notification Process: Activity 1 2 Federal regulations (10CFR50 Appendix E, Item IV.D.3) stipulate, [t]he design objective of the prompt public alert and notification system shall be to have the capability to essentially complete the initial alerting and initiate notification of the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ within about 15 minutes. Furthermore, Part V, Section B.1, item 3 of the 2019 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program Manual states that Notification methods will be established to ensure coverage within 45 minutes of essentially 100% of the population within the entire plume exposure pathway who may not have received the initial notification.

Given the federal regulations and guidance, and the presence of sirens within the EPZ, it is assumed that 100% of the population in the EPZ can be notified within 45 minutes. The notification distribution is provided in Table 52 . The distribution is plotted in Figure 52.

Distribution No. 2, Prepare to Leave Work: Activity 2 3 It is reasonable to expect that the vast majority of business enterprises within the EPZ will elect to shut down following notification and most employees would leave work quickly. Commuters, who work outside the EPZ could, in all probability, also leave quickly since facilities outside the EPZ would remain open and other personnel would remain. Personnel or farmers responsible for equipment/livestock would require additional time to secure their facility. The distribution of Activity 2 3 shown in Table 53 reflects data obtained by the demographic survey for employees working inside or outside of the EPZ who return home prior to evacuating. This distribution is also applicable for residents to leave stores, restaurants, parks and other locations within the EPZ. This distribution is plotted in Figure 52.

Distribution No. 3, Travel Home: Activity 2, 3 4 These data are provided directly by those households which responded to the demographic survey. This distribution is plotted in Figure 52 and listed in Table 54.

Distribution No. 4, Prepare to Leave Home: Activity 2, 4 5 These data are provided directly by those households which responded to the demographic survey. This distribution is plotted in Figure 52 and listed in Table 55.

Distribution No. 5, Snow Clearance Time Distribution Inclement weather scenarios involving snowfall must address the time lags associated with snow clearance. It is assumed that snow plowing equipment is mobilized and deployed during Limerick Generating Station 54 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

the snowfall to maintain passable roads. The general consensus is that the snowplowing efforts are generally successful for all but the most extreme blizzards when the rate of snow accumulation exceeds that of snow clearance over a period of many hours. (Note - evacuation may not be a prudent protective action under such blizzard conditions).

Consequently, it is reasonable to assume that the highway system will remain passable - albeit at a lower capacity - under the vast majority of snow conditions. Nevertheless, for the vehicles to gain access to the highway system, it may be necessary for driveways and employee parking lots to be cleared to the extent needed to permit vehicles to gain access to the roadways.

These clearance activities take time; this time must be incorporated into the trip generation time distributions. These data are provided by those households which responded to the demographic survey. This distribution is plotted in Figure 52 and listed in Table 56.

Note that those respondents (about 10%) who answered that they would not take time to clear their driveway were assumed to be ready immediately at the start of this activity. Essentially, they would drive through the snow on the driveway to access the roadway and begin their evacuation trip.

5.4 Calculation of Trip Generation Time Distribution The time distributions for each of the mobilization activities presented herein must be combined to form the appropriate Trip Generation Distributions. As discussed above, this study assumes that the stated events take place in sequence such that all preceding events must be completed before the current event can occur. For example, if a household awaits the return of a commuter, the worktohome trip (Activity 3 4) must precede Activity 4 5.

To calculate the time distribution of an event that is dependent on two sequential activities, it is necessary to sum the distributions associated with these prior activities. The distribution summing algorithm is applied repeatedly as shown to form the required distribution. As an outcome of this procedure, new time distributions are formed; we assign letter designations to these intermediate distributions to describe the procedure. Table 57 presents the summing procedure to arrive at each designated distribution.

Table 58 presents a description of each of the final trip generation distributions achieved after the summing process is completed.

5.4.1 Statistical Outliers As already mentioned, some portion of the survey respondents answer Decline to State to some questions or choose to not respond to a question. The mobilization activity distributions are based upon actual responses. But, it is the nature of surveys that a few numeric responses are inconsistent with the overall pattern of results. An example would be a case in which for 500 responses, almost all of them estimate less than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> for a given answer, but 3 say four hours and 4 say six or more hours.

These outliers must be considered: are they valid responses, or so atypical that they should be dropped from the sample?

Limerick Generating Station 55 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

In assessing outliers, there are three alternates to consider:

1) Some responses with very long times may be valid, but reflect the reality that the respondent really needs to be classified in a different population subgroup, based upon special needs;
2) Other responses may be unrealistic (6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to return home from commuting distance, or 2 days to prepare the home for departure);
3) Some high values are representative and plausible, and one must not cut them as part of the consideration of outliers.

The issue of course is how to make the decision that a given response or set of responses are to be considered outliers for the component mobilization activities, using a method that objectively quantifies the process.

There is considerable statistical literature on the identification and treatment of outliers singly or in groups, much of which assumes the data is normally distributed and some of which uses non parametric methods to avoid that assumption. The literature cites that limited work has been done directly on outliers in sample survey responses.

In establishing the overall mobilization time/trip generation distributions, the following principles are used:

1) It is recognized that the overall trip generation distributions are conservative estimates, because they assume a household will do the mobilization activities sequentially, with no overlap of activities;
2) The individual mobilization activities (prepare to leave work/college, travel home, prepare home, clear snow) are reviewed for outliers, and then the overall trip generation distributions are created (see Figure 51, Table 57, Table 58)
3) Outliers can be eliminated either because the response reflects a special population (e.g.,

those people with access and/or functional needs, transit dependent) or lack of realism, because the purpose is to estimate trip generation patterns for personal vehicles;

4) To eliminate outliers, a) the mean and standard deviation of the specific activity are estimated from the responses, b) the median of the same data is estimated, with its position relative to the mean noted, c) the histogram of the data is inspected, and d) all values greater than 3.0 standard deviations are flagged for attention, taking special note of whether there are gaps (categories with zero entries) in the histogram display.

In general, only flagged values more than 3.5 standard deviations from the mean are allowed to be considered outliers, with gaps in the histogram expected.

When flagged values are classified as outliers and dropped, steps a to d are repeated.

Limerick Generating Station 56 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

5) As a practical matter, even with outliers eliminated by the above, the resultant histogram, viewed as a cumulative distribution, is not a normal distribution. A typical situation that results is shown below in Figure 53.
6) In particular, the cumulative distribution differs from the normal distribution in two key aspects, both very important in loading a network to estimate evacuation times:

Most of the real data is to the left of the normal curve, indicating that the network loads faster for the first 8085% of the vehicles, potentially causing more (and earlier) congestion than otherwise modeled; The last 1015% of the real data tails off slower than the comparable normal curve, indicating that there is significant traffic still loading at later times.

Because these two features are important to preserve, it is the histogram of the data that is used to describe the mobilization activities, not a normal curve fit to the data. One could consider other distributions, but using the shape of the actual data curve is unambiguous and preserves these important features.

7) With the mobilization activities each modeled according to Steps 16, including preserving the features cited in Step 6, the overall (or total) mobilization times are constructed.

This is done by using the data sets and distributions under different scenarios (e.g., commuter returning, no commuter returning, no snow or snow in each). In general, these are additive, using weighting based upon the probability distributions of each element; Figure 54 presents the combined trip generation distributions designated A, C, D, E and F. These distributions are presented on the same time scale. (As discussed earlier, the use of strictly additive activities is a conservative approach, because it makes all activities sequential - preparation for departure follows the return of the commuter; snow clearance follows the preparation for departure, and so forth. In practice, it is reasonable that some of these activities are done in parallel, at least to some extent - for instance, preparation to depart begins by a household member at home while the commuter is still on the road.)

The mobilization distributions that result are used in their tabular/graphical form as direct inputs to later computations that lead to the ETE.

Figure 54 presents the resultant trip generation distributions for each of the population groups identified. The DYNEV II simulation model is designed to accept varying rates of vehicle trip generation for each origin centroid, expressed in the form of histograms. These histograms, which represent Distributions A, C, D, E and F, properly displaced with respect to one another, are tabulated in Table 59 (Distribution B, Arrive Home, omitted for clarity).

The final time period (15) is 600 minutes long. This time period is added to allow the analysis network to clear, in the event congestion persists beyond the trip generation period. Note that there are no trips generated during this final time period.

5.4.2 Staged Evacuation Trip Generation As defined in NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1, staged evacuation consists of the following:

1. Subareas comprising the 2Mile Region are advised to evacuate immediately.
2. Subareas comprising regions extending from 2 to 5 miles downwind are advised to shelter inplace while the 2Mile Region is cleared.
3. As vehicles evacuate the 2Mile Region, sheltered people from 2 to 5 miles downwind continue to prepare for an evacuation.
4. The population sheltering in the 2 to 5Mile Region are advised to begin evacuating when approximately 90% of those originally within the 2Mile Region evacuate across the 2Mile Region boundary.
5. Noncompliance with the shelter recommendation is the same as the shadow evacuation percentage of 20%.

Assumptions

1. The EPZ population in Subareas beyond 5 miles will shelterinplace, with the exception of the 20% noncompliance.
2. The population in the Shadow Region beyond the EPZ boundary, extending to approximately 15 miles radially from the plant, will react as they do for all nonstaged evacuation scenarios. That is 20% of these households will elect to evacuate with no shelter delay.
3. The transient population will not be expected to stage their evacuation because of the limited sheltering options available to people who may be at parks, on a beach, or at other venues. Also, notifying the transient population of a staged evacuation would prove difficult.
4. Employees will also be assumed to evacuate without first sheltering in place.

Procedure

1. Trip generation for population groups in the 2Mile Region will be as computed based upon the results of the demographic survey and analysis.
2. Trip generation for the population subject to staged evacuation will be formulated as follows:
a. Identify the 90th percentile evacuation time for the subareas comprising the 2 Mile Region. This value, TScen*, is obtained from simulation results. It will become the time at which the region being sheltered will be told to evacuate for each scenario.
b. The resultant trip generation curves for staging are then formed as follows:
i. The nonshelter trip generation curve is followed until a maximum of 20%

of the total trips are generated (to account for shelter noncompliance).

ii. No additional trips are generated until time TScen*.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

iii. Following time TScen*, the balance of trips are generated:

1. by stepping up and then following the nonshelter trip generation curve (if TScen* is < max trip generation time) or
2. by stepping up to 100% (if TScen* is > max trip generation time)
c. Note: This procedure implies that there may be different staged trip generation distributions for different scenarios. NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1 uses the statement approximately 90% as the time to end staging and begin evacuating.

The value of TScen* is 2:30 for nonheavy snow scenarios and 3:45 for heavy snow scenarios.

3. Staged trip generation distributions are created for the following population groups:
a. Residents with returning commuters
b. Residents without returning commuters
c. Residents with returning commuters and heavy snow conditions
d. Residents without returning commuters and heavy snow conditions Figure 55 presents the staged trip generation distributions for both residents with and without returning commuters; the 90th percentile twomile evacuation time is approximately 150 minutes for good weather and approximately 225 minutes for snow scenarios, on average. At the approximate 90th percentile evacuation time, at most 20% of the population (who normally would have completed their mobilization activities for an unstaged evacuation) advised to shelter has nevertheless departed the area. These people do not comply with the shelter advisory. Also included on the plot are the trip generation distributions for these groups as applied to the regions advised to evacuate immediately.

Since the 90th percentile evacuation time occurs before the end of the trip generation time, after the sheltered region is advised to evacuate, the shelter trip generation distribution rises to meet the balance of the nonstaged trip generation distribution. Following time TScen*, the balance of staged evacuation trips that are ready to depart are released within 30 minutes. After TScen*+30, the remainder of evacuation trips are generated in accordance with the unstaged trip generation distribution.

Table 510 provides the trip generation histograms for staged evacuation.

5.4.3 Trip Generation for Waterways Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA) determines the need to restrict river traffic and notifies the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission and the Pennsylvania State Police. The Fish and Boat Commission will establish and operate waterway access control points as required.

As indicated in Table 52, this study assumes 100% notification in 45 minutes. Table 59 indicates that all transients will have mobilized within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 30 minutes. It is assumed that this timeframe is sufficient time for boaters to return to their vehicles and begin their evacuation trip.

6 EVACUATION CASES An evacuation case defines a combination of Evacuation Region and Evacuation Scenario.

The definitions of Region and Scenario are as follows:

Region A grouping of contiguous evacuating Subareas that forms either a keyhole sectorbased area, or a circular area within the EPZ, that must be evacuated in response to a radiological emergency.

Scenario A combination of circumstances, including time of day, day of week, season, and weather conditions. Scenarios define the number of people in each of the affected population groups and their respective mobilization time distributions.

A total of 42 Regions were defined which encompass all the groupings of Subareas considered.

These Regions are defined in Table 61. The Subarea configurations are identified in Figure

61. Each keyhole sectorbased area consists of a central circle centered at the power plant, and five adjoining sectors, each with a central angle of 22.5 degrees. The central sector coincides with the wind direction. These sectors extend from 2 miles to 5 miles downwind from the plant (Regions R04 through R14) or to the EPZ boundary (Regions R15 through R30).

Regions R01, R02 and R03 represent evacuations of circular areas with radii of 2, 5 and 10 miles, respectively. Regions R31 through R42 are identical to Regions R02, R04 through R14, respectively; however, those Subareas between 2 miles and 5 miles are staged until 90% of the 2mile region (Region R01) has evacuated.

A total of 14 Scenarios were evaluated for all Regions. Thus, there are a total of 42 x 14 = 588 evacuation cases. Table 62 is a description of all Scenarios. Each combination of region and scenario implies a specific population to be evacuated.

The population and vehicle estimates presented in Section 3 and in Appendix E are peak values.

These peak values are adjusted depending on the Scenario and Region being considered using Scenario and Regionspecific percentages such that the average population is considered for each evacuation case. The scenario percentages for each population group are presented in Table 63, while the Region percentages are provided in Table H1.

Table 64 presents the vehicle counts for each scenario for an evacuation of Region R03 - the entire EPZ, based on the Scenario percentages in Table 63. The percentages presented in Table 63 were determined as follows:

The number of residents with commuters during the week (when workforce is at its peak) is equal to 48%, which is the product of 84% (the number of households with at least one commuter) and 57% (the number of households with a commuter who would await the return of the commuter prior to evacuating). See assumption 3 in Section 2.3. It is estimated for weekend and evening scenarios that 10% of those households with returning commuters (48%)

will have a commuter at work during those times, or approximately 5% (10% x 48% = 5%) of households overall.

It can be argued that the estimate of permanent residents overstates, somewhat, the number of evacuating vehicles, especially during the summer. It is certainly reasonable to assert that some portion of the population would be on vacation during the summer and would travel elsewhere. A rough estimate of this reduction can be obtained as follows:

Assume 50% of all households vacation for a period over the summer.

Assume these vacations, in aggregate, are uniformly dispersed over 10 weeks, i.e., 10%

of the population is on vacation during each twoweek interval.

Assume half of these vacationers leave the area.

On this basis, the permanent resident population would be reduced by 5% in the summer and by a lesser amount in the offseason. Given the uncertainty in this estimate, we elected to apply no reductions in permanent resident population for the summer scenarios to account for residents who may be out of the area.

Employment is assumed to be at its peak (100%) during the winter, midweek, midday scenarios.

Employment is reduced slightly (96%) for summer, midweek, midday scenarios. This is based on the assumption that 50% of the employees commuting into the EPZ will be on vacation for a week during the approximate 12 weeks of summer. It is further assumed that those taking vacation will be uniformly dispersed throughout the summer with approximately 4% of employees vacationing each week. It is further assumed that only 10% of the employees are working in the evening and during the weekend.

As shown in Appendix E, there are a significant number of parks and malls within the EPZ; thus, transient activity during weekends during the midday is at its peak - 90% in the summer and 75% in the winter. Transient activity on weekdays is estimated to be 65% and 45% during the summer and winter, respectively, since many facilities are open but operate at lower levels than on weekends. Due to the presence of overnight accommodations of campgrounds and lodging facilities, transient activity is at about half or a third during evening hours - 50% in the summer and 30% in the winter.

The shadow percentages are computed using a base of 20% (see assumption 7 in Section 2.2),

as noted in the shadow footnote to Table 63. To include the employees within the shadow region who may choose to evacuate, the voluntary evacuation is multiplied by a scenario specific proportion of employees to permanent residents in the shadow region. For example, using the values provided in Table 64 for Scenario 1, the shadow percentage is computed as follows:

5,277 20% 1 21%

78,667 85,632 One special event - Phoenixville Firebird Festival - was considered as Scenario 13. Thus, the special event traffic is 100% evacuated for Scenario 13, and 0% for all other scenarios.

Schools are in session during the winter season, midweek, midday scenarios. As such, school buses and on and off campus students are all present during winter, midweek, midday Limerick Generating Station 62 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

scenarios. Since on campus students live in campus housing, it is assumed they are also present on weekends and evenings in the winter. It is estimated that summer school enrollment (including colleges) is approximately 10% of enrollment during the regular school year for summer, midweek, midday scenarios. Similar to winter scenarios, on campus students are assumed to be present at the same rate (10%) during summer weekends and evenings. School and colleges are not in session during weekends and evenings, as such school buses and off campus students are assumed to be 0% for weekend and evening scenarios.

Transit vehicles for the transitdependent population and medical facility population are set to 100% for all scenarios as it is assumed that these population groups are present in the EPZ at all times.

External traffic is assumed to be reduced by 60% during evening scenarios and is 100% for all other scenarios.

7 GENERAL POPULATION EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES (ETE)

This section presents the ETE results of the computer analyses using the DYNEV II System described in Appendices B, C and D. These results cover the 42 evacuation regions within the LGS EPZ, and the 14 evacuation scenarios discussed in Section 6.

The ETE for all evacuation cases are presented in Table 71 and Table 72. These tables present the estimated times to clear the indicated population percentages from the evacuation regions for all evacuation scenarios. The ETE of the 2mile region in both staged and unstaged regions are presented in Table 73 and Table 74. Table 75 defines the evacuation regions considered.

The tabulated values of ETE are obtained from the DYNEV II System outputs which are generated at 5minute intervals.

7.1 Voluntary Evacuation and Shadow Evacuation Voluntary evacuees are permanent residents within the EPZ in Subareas for which an ATE has not been issued, yet who elect to evacuate. Shadow evacuation is the voluntary outward movement of some permanent residents from the Shadow Region (outside the EPZ) for whom no protective action recommendation has been issued. Both voluntary and shadow evacuations are assumed to take place over the same time frame as the evacuation from within the impacted evacuation region.

The ETE for the LGS EPZ addresses the issue of voluntary evacuees in the manner shown in Figure 71. Within the EPZ, 20% of permanent residents located in Subareas outside of the evacuation region who are not advised to evacuate, are assumed to elect to evacuate. Similarly, it is assumed that 20% of the permanent residents in the Shadow Region will also choose to leave the area.

Figure 72 presents the area identified as the Shadow Region. This region extends radially from the plant to cover a region between the EPZ boundary and approximately 15 miles. The population and number of evacuating vehicles in the Shadow Region were estimated using the same methodology that was used for the permanent residents within the EPZ (see Section 3.1).

As discussed in Section 3.2, it is estimated that a total of 300,907 permanent residents reside in the Shadow Region; 20% of them would evacuate. See Table 64 for the number of evacuating vehicles from the Shadow Region.

Traffic generated within this Shadow Region, traveling away from the LGS, has the potential for impeding evacuating vehicles from within the evacuation region. All ETE calculations include this shadow traffic movement.

7.2 Staged Evacuation As defined in NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1, staged evacuation consists of the following:

1. Subarea comprising the 2Mile Region are advised to evacuate immediately.

Limerick Generating Station 71 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

2. Subarea comprising regions extending from 2 to 5 miles downwind are advised to shelter inplace while the 2Mile Region is cleared.
3. As vehicles evacuate the 2Mile Region, people from 2 to 5 miles downwind continue preparation for evacuation while they shelter.
4. The population sheltering in the 2 to 5Mile Region is advised to begin evacuating when approximately 90% of those originally within the 2Mile Region evacuate crosses the 2 Mile Region boundary.
5. The population between the 5Mile Region boundary to the full EPZ boundary (approximately 10 miles radially from plant) shelters in place.
6. Noncompliance with the shelter recommendation is the same as the shadow evacuation percentage of 20%.

See Section 5.4.2 for additional information on staged evacuation.

7.3 Patterns of Traffic Congestion During Evacuation Figure 73 through Figure 78 illustrate the patterns of traffic congestion that arise for the case when the entire EPZ (region R03) is advised to evacuate during the summer, midweek, midday period under good weather conditions (scenario 1).

Traffic congestion, as the term is used here, is defined as Level of Service (LOS) F. LOS F is defined as follows (HCM 2016, page 55):

The HCM uses LOS F to define operations that have either broken down (i.e., demand exceeds capacity) or have reached a point that most users would consider unsatisfactory, as described by a specified service measure value (or combination of service measure values). However, analysts may be interested in knowing just how bad the LOS F condition is, particularly for planning applications where different alternatives may be compared. Several measures are available to describe individually, or in combination, the severity of a LOS F condition:

  • Demandtocapacity ratios describe the extent to which demand exceeds capacity during the analysis period (e.g., by 1%, 15%).
  • Duration of LOS F describes how long the condition persists (e.g., 15 min, 1 h, 3 h).
  • Spatial extent measures describe the areas affected by LOS F conditions. These include measures such as the back of queue and the identification of the specific intersection approaches or system elements experiencing LOS F conditions.

All highway "links" which experience LOS F are delineated in these figures by a thick red line; all others are lightly indicated. Congestion develops rapidly around concentrations of population and traffic bottlenecks.

Figure 73 displays the developing congestion within the population centers 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> after the Advisory to Evacuate (ATE). Phoenixville, Upper and Lower Providence, Perkiomen, Schuylkill, Boyertown, Colebrookdale, and New Hanover are already experiencing significant congestion.

Sections of many of the major evacuation routes, including State Route (SR) 73, US 422, SR 24, SR 23, SR 100 southbound, SR 724, SR 23, SR29, and SR 63, are already exhibiting LOS F conditions. To the North, Route 100 northbound and Route 663 are also operating at LOS F conditions. These two routes serve as the major evacuation routes for most of the Subareas to the north of LGS. I76 exhibits LOS C or better in most of the study area. I476 exhibits LOS B or better. At this time, approximately 21% of evacuees have mobilized, and approximately 12% of vehicles have evacuated the EPZ.

At 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> after the ATE, Figure 74 displays fully developed congestion throughout the study area with LOS F along every major evacuation route. At this time, access control is established on major evacuation routes to stop external traffic from entering the study area. Although there is some congestion within the 2mile Region at this time, most of the congestion is beyond 2 miles from LGS, most notably in Phoenixville, Upper Providence, Upper Providence, Trappe, Collegeville, Schuylkill, Upper Pottsgrove, New Hanover, Colebrookdale, Boyertown, and Amity. At this time, approximately 67% of evacuees have mobilized, and approximately 36% of vehicles have evacuated the EPZ.

At 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> after the ATE, as shown in Figure 75, congestion persists throughout the EPZ.

Congestion is completely clear within the 2mile radius; slight congestion remains in the 2mile Region. Beyond 2 miles, US 422 is amongst the most heavily used evacuation routes in the EPZ, with pronounced congestion west and southeast of LGS. In the southeast, traffic queues emanate from where US 422 splits into US 202 and I76. The severe congestion along US 422 results in many vehicles finding alternate routes on other state routes and arterials throughout the EPZ. In the north and northwest, SR 73, SR 100, and SR 663 remain heavily congested as well. At this time, approximately 92% of evacuees have mobilized, and approximately 57% of vehicles have evacuated the EPZ.

At 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> after the ATE, Figure 76 shows congestion migrating away from LGS. Congestion remains along US 422, but now the congestion backs up to SR 29 in the eastbound direction and to Stowe in the westbound direction. Parts of SR 73, SR 100, SR 663, SR 113, SR 29, SR 23, SR 29, and SR 562 still exhibit LOS F conditions. The major population centers of Collegeville, Upper and Lower Providence, Phoenixville, Stowe, Amity, Colebrookdale, and Boyertown are still heavily congested. The 2mile region is nearly clear of congestion; the last bit of congestion in the 2mile Region clears 15 minutes later at 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and 15 minutes after the ATE. At this time, approximately 99% of evacuees have mobilized, and approximately 78% of vehicles have successfully evacuated the EPZ.

At 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> and 30 minutes after the ATE, as shown in Figure 77, the EPZ is nearly clear of traffic congestion. Congestion persists in the north and west on arterials leaving Boyertown and Pottstown/West Pottsgrove SR 73, SR 100, SR 662, SR 562, and US 422. In the southeast, congestion persists in Lower Providence as vehicles attempt to access US 422 Eastbound, I276, I476, and other limited access highways.

and the 5mile Region are fully clear of congestion; the 5mile Region completely clears of all vehicles 5 minutes later at 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> and 35 minutes after the ATE. At this time, 100% of evacuees have mobilized, and approximately 97% of vehicles have evacuated the EPZ.

Figure 78 shows the patterns of congestion at 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and 30 minutes after the ATE with the last bit of congestion in the EPZ at the US 422 on ramp from SR 363, which clears 15 minutes later at 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and 45 minutes after the ATE. At this time, 100% of evacuees have mobilized, and 99% of vehicles have successfully evacuated the EPZ. LOS F conditions are still present inside the shadow region along US 422 westbound and Kutztown Rd. The last road to clear in the study area is US 422 westbound which clears at 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> and 5 minutes after the ATE.

7.4 Evacuation Rates Evacuation is a continuous process, as implied by Figure 79 through Figure 722. These figures indicate the rate at which traffic flows out of the indicated areas for the case of an evacuation of the full EPZ (Region R03) under the indicated conditions. One figure is presented for each scenario considered.

As indicated in Figure 79, there is typically a long "tail" to these distributions. Vehicles begin to evacuate an area slowly at first, as people respond to the ATE at different rates. Then traffic demand builds rapidly (slopes of curves increase). When the system becomes congested, traffic exits the EPZ at rates somewhat below capacity until some evacuation routes have cleared. As more routes clear, the aggregate rate of egress slows since many vehicles have already left the EPZ. Towards the end of the process, relatively few evacuees (those with the longest mobilization times) travel freely out of the EPZ.

This decline in aggregate flow rate, towards the end of the process, is characterized by these curves flattening and gradually becoming horizontal. Ideally, it would be desirable to fully saturate all evacuation routes equally so that all will service traffic near capacity levels and all will clear at the same time. For this ideal situation, all curves would retain the same slope until the end - thus minimizing evacuation time. In reality, this ideal is generally unattainable reflecting the spatial variation in population density, mobilization rates and in highway capacity over the EPZ.

7.5 Evacuation Time Estimate (ETE) Results Table 71 and Table 72 present the ETE values for all 46 Evacuation Regions and all 14 Evacuation Scenarios. Table 73 and Table 74 present the ETE values for the 2Mile region for both staged and unstaged keyhole regions downwind to 5 miles. The tables are organized as follows:

ETE represents the elapsed time required for 90% of the population 73 within the 2mile Region, to evacuate from that Region with both Concurrent and Staged Evacuations.

ETE represents the elapsed time required for 100% of the population 74 within the 2mile Region, to evacuate from that Region with both Concurrent and Staged Evacuations.

The animation snapshots described above reflect the ETE statistics for the concurrent (un staged) evacuation scenarios and regions, which are displayed in Figure 73 through Figure 78.

Congestion exists throughout the EPZ, but migrates away from the plant throughout the evacuation; this is reflected in the ETE statistics:

At the 90th percentile:

o The 90th percentile ETE for Region R01 range between 2:30 and 2:55 for non special event, nonsnow scenarios (3:30 to 3:55 for snow and the special event).

o The 90th percentile ETE for Region R02 are 25 to 45 minutes longer than the ETE for R01 and range between 3:00 and 3:35 for nonspecial, nonsnow scenarios (3:55 to 4:40 for snow and the special event).

o As discussed in Section 7.3, heavy congestion exists within the 5 to 10mile region. Hence, the 90th percentile ETE for Region R03 are 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 20 minutes to 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 50 minutes longer than the ETE for R02 and range between 4:25 and 5:20 for nonsnow scenarios (6:00 to 6:20 for snow).

o At the 90th percentile, rain increases the ETE by up to 35 minutes; snow by 80 minutes (some of this increase is due to longer mobilization times associated with clearing snow from driveways prior to evacuating).

o The 90th percentile ETE for midweek scenarios are approximately 15 to 20 minutes longer on average than weekend and evening scenarios. This is due to the large number of employees present in the EPZ during midweek scenarios.

o The 90th percentile ETE for the keyhole regions downwind to the EPZ boundary that do not include Upper Providence and Lower Providence (R16 through R19) and Amity, West Pottsgrove, and Upper Pottsgrove (i.e., Regions R24 and R25) are less (60 minutes on average) across all scenarios than the ETE for other keyholes extending to the EPZ boundary. As shown in Figure 73 through Figure 78, these Subareas are highly congested throughout the evacuation, and the ETE for Regions that contain these Subareas is, therefore, longer.

At the 100th percentile:

o The 100th percentile ETE for Region R01 range from 4:45 to 4:50 for nonsnow and nonspecial event cases (6:15 to 6:25 for snow cases and 5:55 for the special event).

Limerick Generating Station 75 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

o The 100th percentile ETE for Region R02 and keyholes to 5 miles (Region R04 through R14) range from 4:50 to 5:15 for nonsnow and nonspecial event cases (6:20 to 6:25 for snow cases and 5:55 to 8:40 for the special event).

o The 100th percentile ETE for Region R03 and keyholes to the EPZ boundary (Region R15 through R30) range from 4:55 to 7:30 for nonsnow and nonspecial event cases (6:25 to 8:55 for snow cases and 6:05 to 10:35 for the special event).

o The 100th percentile ETE for regions that include Upper Providence, Lower Providence, Amity, West Pottsgrove, and/or Upper Pottsgrove (Region R03, R15 and R18 through R30) are significantly longer (up to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> and 35 minutes) than the trip mobilization time (4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> and 45 minutes for nonsnow scenarios).

All other regions are comparable to the trip mobilization time (differences of 5 to 25 minutes).

Comparison of Scenarios 12 and 13 in Table 71 indicates that the Special Event - Phoenixville Firebird Festival - has little impact (at most 15 minutes) on the ETE for the 90th and the 100th percentile. As discussed in Section 6, the external traffic is reduced by 60% for evening scenarios which is when the burning occurs. The additional 2,239 vehicles present for the special event increase congestion on the local roads in Phoenixville and exiting arterials.

However, the quickly mobilizing transients are able to evacuate before significant congestion develops. As a result, the entire EPZ (Region R03) ETE, for example, increases by only 5 minutes.

Comparison of Scenarios 1 and 14 in Table 71 indicates that the roadway closure - one lane eastbound on US 422 from the interchange with Evergreen Rd to the interchange with US 202 -

has a material impact on 90th percentile ETE with increases in ETE by as much as 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. The impacts from the roadway closure are more significant when the wind blows towards the southeast. Wind blowing towards the southeast carries the plume over Upper Providence and surrounding areas, which rely heavily on US 422 eastbound. With a lane closed on US 422 eastbound, the capacity is reduced by approximately 60%, increasing congestion and prolonging ETE.

The results of the roadway impact scenario indicate that events such as adverse weather or traffic accidents which close a lane on US 422, could impact ETE. State and local police could consider traffic management tactics such as using the shoulder of the roadway as a travel lane or rerouting of traffic along other evacuation routes to avoid overwhelming US 422. All efforts should be made to remove the blockage on US 422.

7.6 Staged Evacuation Results Table 73 and Table 74 present a comparison of the ETE compiled for the concurrent (un staged) and staged evacuation studies. Note that Regions R31 through R42 are the same geographic areas as Regions R02 and R04 through R14, respectively. The times shown in Table 73 and Table 74 are when the 2mile region is 90% clear and 100% clear, respectively.

To determine whether the staged evacuation strategy is worthy of consideration, one must determine if the ETE for the 2Mile Region significantly increases (defined in the federal regulations as 30 minutes or 25%, whichever is less) when evacuating Subareas downwind to 5 Limerick Generating Station 76 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

miles. A significant increase in the 2Mile Region ETE when evacuating Subareas downwind would be indicative of traffic congestion beyond 2 miles delaying the egress of those within the 2Mile Region. In all cases, as shown in these tables, the ETE for the 2Mile Region is unchanged when a staged evacuation is implemented. Thus, the impedance due to the traffic congestion within the 5Mile Region to evacuees from within the 2Mile Region is not sufficient to materially influence the 90th percentile ETE for the 2Mile Region. Therefore, staging the evacuation to sharply reduce congestion within the 5Mile Region provides no benefits to evacuees from within the 2Mile Region. It should be noted that as discussed in Section 7.5, the roadway impact scenario has a significant impact to ETE and would then be considered an impediment to evacuation. As a result, the roadway impact scenario was not included as part of the staged evacuation analysis.

While failing to provide assistance to evacuees from within 2 miles of the LGS, staging produces a negative impact on the ETE for those evacuating downwind to 5 miles. A comparison of ETE between Regions R31 through R42 with R02 and R04 through R14, respectively, reveals that staging retards the 90th percentile ETE for those downwind to 5 miles by up to 55 minutes (see Table 71). This extension of ETE is due to the delay in beginning the evacuation trip, experienced by those who shelter, plus the effect of the tripgeneration spike (significant volume of traffic beginning the evacuation trip at the same time - see Figure 55) that follows their eventual ATE, in creating congestion within the EPZ area beyond 2 miles. The 100th percentile ETE for those evacuating downwind to 5 miles is also affected by up to 65 minutes for regions that include New Hanover, which extends out to the EPZ boundary (see Table 72).

In summary, the staged evacuation protective action strategy provides no benefits to the evacuees within 2 miles of the LGS and adversely impacts many evacuees located beyond 2 miles from the LGS.

  • The conditions of a summer evening (either midweek or weekend) and rain are not explicitly identified in the Tables. For these conditions, Scenarios (2) and (4) apply.
  • The conditions of a winter evening (either midweek or weekend) and rain are not explicitly identified in the Tables. For these conditions, Scenarios (7) and (10) for rain apply.
  • The conditions of a winter evening (either midweek or weekend) and snow are not explicitly identified in the Tables. For these conditions, Scenarios (8) and (11) for snow apply.
  • The seasons are defined as follows:

Summer assumes that public schools are not in session.

Winter (includes Spring and Autumn) considers that public schools are in session.

  • Time of Day: Midday implies the time over which most commuters are at work or are travelling to/from work.
2. With the desired percentile ETE and Scenario identified, now identify the Evacuation Region:
  • Determine the projected azimuth direction of the plume (coincident with the wind direction). This direction is expressed in terms of compass orientation: from N, NNE, NE,
  • Determine the distance that the Evacuation Region will extend from the nuclear power plant. The applicable distances and their associated candidate Regions are given below:

2 Miles (Region R01)

To 5 Miles (Region R02, and R04 through R14)

To EPZ Boundary (Regions R03, R15 through R30)

  • Enter Table 75 and identify the applicable group of candidate Regions based on the distance that the selected Region extends from the LGS. Select the Evacuation Region identifier in that row, based on the azimuth direction of the plume, from the first column of the Table.
3. Determine the ETE Table based on the percentile selected. Then, for the Scenario identified in Step 1 and the Region identified in Step 2, proceed as follows:
  • The columns of Table 71 through Table 74 are labeled with the Scenario numbers.

Identify the proper column in the selected Table using the Scenario number defined Limerick Generating Station 78 KLD Engineering, P.C.

in Step 1.

  • Identify the row in the table that provides ETE values for the Region identified in Step 2.
  • The unique data cell defined by the column and row so determined contains the desired value of ETE expressed in Hours:Minutes.

Example It is desired to identify the ETE for the following conditions:

  • Sunday, August 10th at 4:00 AM.
  • It is raining.
  • Wind direction is from the northeast (NE).
  • Wind speed is such that the distance to be evacuated is judged to be a 2mile radius and downwind to 10 miles (to EPZ boundary).
  • The desired ETE is that value needed to evacuate 90 percent of the population from within the impacted Region.
  • A staged evacuation is not desired.

Table 71 is applicable because the 90th percentile ETE is desired. Proceed as follows:

1. Identify the Scenario as summer, weekend, evening and raining. Entering Table 71, it is seen that there is no match for these descriptors. However, the clarification given above assigns this combination of circumstances to Scenario 4.
2. Enter Table 75 and locate the Region described as Evacuate 2Mile Radius and Downwind to the EPZ Boundary for wind direction from the NE and read Region R17.
3. Enter Table 71 to locate the data cell containing the value of ETE for Scenario 4 and Region R17. This data cell is in column (4) and in the row for Region R17; it contains the ETE value of 3:05.

8 TRANSITDEPENDENT AND SPECIAL FACILITY EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES This section details the analyses applied and the results obtained in the form of evacuation time estimates (ETE) for transit vehicles, buses, vans, ambulances, and wheelchair transport vehicles.

The demand for transit service reflects the needs of three population groups:

residents with no vehicles available; residents of special facilities such as schools, preschools and childcare centers, medical facilities, and correctional facilities; and access and/or functional needs population.

These transit vehicles mix with the general evacuation traffic that is comprised mostly of passenger cars (pcs). The presence of each transit vehicle in the evacuating traffic stream is represented within the modeling paradigm described in Appendix D as equivalent to two pcs.

This equivalence factor represents the longer size and more sluggish operating characteristics of a transit vehicle, relative to those of a pc. Ambulances and vans are considered one pc.

Transit vehicles must be mobilized in preparation for their respective evacuation missions.

Specifically:

  • Bus drivers must be alerted
  • They must travel to the bus depot
  • They must be briefed there and assigned to a route or facility These activities consume time. The location of bus depots impacts the time to travel from the bus depots to the facilities being evacuated. Locations of bus depots were not identified in this study. Rather, the offsite agencies were asked to factor the location of the depots and the distances to the EPZ into the estimate of mobilization time.

During this mobilization period, other mobilization activities are taking place. One of these is the action taken by parents, neighbors, relatives and friends to pick up children from school prior to the arrival of buses, so that they may join their families. Virtually all studies of evacuations have concluded that this bonding process of uniting families is universally prevalent during emergencies and should be anticipated in the planning process. The current public information disseminated to residents of the LGS EPZ indicates that schoolchildren will be evacuated to host schools at emergency classification levels of Alert or higher, and that parents should pick schoolchildren up at host schools. As discussed in Section 2, this study assumes a fastbreaking general emergency. Therefore, schools (including day cares) and special facilities receive initial notification at the same time as the rest of the EPZ and children are evacuated to host schools.

Picking up children at school could add to traffic congestion at the schools, delaying the departure of the buses evacuating schoolchildren, which may have to return in a subsequent wave to the EPZ to evacuate the transitdependent population. This report provides estimates of buses under the assumption that no children will be picked up by their parents (in accordance with NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1), to present an upper bound estimate of buses required.

The procedure for computing transitdependent ETE is to:

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

  • Estimate demand for transit service (discussed in Section 3)
  • Estimate time to perform all transit functions
  • Estimate route travel times to the EPZ boundary and to the host schools/general population reception centers.

Evacuation Time Estimates for transit trips were developed using both good weather and adverse weather conditions. Figure 81 presents the chronology of events relevant to transit operations.

The elapsed time for each activity will now be discussed with reference to Figure 81. ETE are only presented for those facilities that are within the EPZ. The facilities that are in the Shadow Region or beyond are already out of the area being evacuated and, therefore, ETE cannot be computed.

8.1 ETEs for Schools, Transit Dependent People, Special Facilities Table 81 lists the transportation resources and transportation needs to evacuate the transit dependent and special facility population in the EPZ. As shown in the table, there are sufficient resources to evacuate all medical facilities, access and functional needs population, schoolchildren and transit dependent population in a single wave.

The EPZ bus resources are assigned to evacuating schoolchildren (if school is in session at the time of the Advisory to Evacuate [ATE]) as the first priority in the event of an emergency. In the event that the allocation of buses dispatched from the depots to the various facilities and to the bus routes is somewhat inefficient, or if there is a shortfall of available drivers, then there may be a need for some buses to return to the EPZ from the reception centers after completing their first evacuation trip, to complete a second wave of providing transport service to evacuees.

For this reason, the ETE for the transitdependent population are calculated for both a one wave transit evacuation and for two waves. Of course, if the impacted Evacuation Region is other than R03 (the entire EPZ), then there will likely be ample transit resources relative to demand in the impacted Region and this discussion of a second wave would likely not apply. It is assumed that there are enough drivers available to man all resources listed in Table 81.

When school evacuation needs are satisfied, subsequent assignments of buses to service the transitdependent should be sensitive to their mobilization time. Clearly, the buses should be dispatched after people have completed their mobilization activities and are in a position to board the buses when they arrive along the bus transit route.

Evacuation of Schools and Day Cares Activity: Mobilize Drivers (ABC)

Mobilization time is the elapsed time from the ATE until the time the buses arrive at the facility to be evacuated. It is assumed that for a rapidly escalating radiological emergency with no observable indication before the fact, drivers would require 90 minutes to be contacted, to travel to the depot, be briefed, and to travel to the schools. Mobilization time is slightly longer in adverse weather - 100 minutes for rain/light snow and 110 minutes for heavy snow.

Limerick Generating Station 82 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

Activity: Board Passengers (CD)

Based on discussions with offsite agencies, a loading time of 15 minutes (20 minutes for rain/light snow and 25 minutes for heavy snow) for school buses is used. See Section 2.4, assumption 5 and Table 22.

Activity: Travel to EPZ Boundary (DE)

The buses servicing the schools are ready to begin their evacuation trips at 105 minutes after the ATE - 90 minutes mobilization time plus a 15minute loading time - in good weather. The UNITES software discussed in Section 1.3 was used to define bus routes along the most likely path from a school being evacuated to the EPZ boundary, traveling toward the appropriate host school. This is done in UNITES by interactively selecting the series of nodes from the school to the EPZ boundary. Each bus route is given an identification number and is written to the DYNEV II input stream. DYNEV computes the route length and outputs the average speed for each 5minute interval, for each bus route. The specified bus routes are documented in Section 10 in Table 10 2 (refer to the maps of the linknode analysis network in Appendix K for node locations). Data provided by DYNEV during the appropriate timeframe depending on the mobilization and loading times (i.e., 105 minutes after the ATE for good weather) were used to compute the average speed for each route, as follows:

. 60 .

. . 1 .

The average speed computed (using this methodology) for the buses servicing all of the schools within each Subarea shown in Table 82 through Table 84. The travel time to the EPZ boundary was computed for each bus using the computed average speed and the distance to the EPZ boundary along the most likely route out of the EPZ. The travel time from the EPZ boundary to the host/receiving school was computed assuming an average speed of 40 mph for good weather, 36 mph (10% decrease) for rain/light snow, and 34 mph (15% decrease) for heavy snow. Speeds were reduced in Table 82 through Table 84 to 40 mph, 36 mph, and 34 mph for good weather, rain/light snow, and heavy snow, respectively, for those calculated bus speeds which exceed 40 mph.

Table 82 (good weather), Table 83 (rain/light snow) and Table 84 (heavy snow) present the following ETEs (rounded up to the nearest 5 minutes) for schools in the EPZ:

Limerick Generating Station 83 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

1. The elapsed time from the ATE until the bus exits the EPZ; and
2. The elapsed time until the bus reaches the host school.

The evacuation time out of the EPZ can be computed as the sum of times associated with Activities ABC, CD, and DE (For example: 90 min. + 15 + 17 = 2:05, rounded up to the nearest 5 minutes, for Schools in Amity, in good weather). Here, 17 minutes is the time to travel 1.3 miles at 4.6 mph.

The average singlewave ETE, for schools is 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> and 5 minutes (4:50 2:45 = 2:05) less than the 90th percentile ETE for evacuation of the general population in the entire EPZ (Region R03) under winter, midweek, midday, good weather (Scenario 6) conditions and will not impact protective action decision making.

The evacuation time to the host school is determined by adding the time associated with Activity EF (discussed below), to this EPZ evacua on me.

Activity: Travel to Host Schools (EF)

The distances from the EPZ boundary to the host schools/receiving schools are measured using GIS software along the most likely route from the EPZ exit point to the host school/receiving school. The host schools are mapped in Figure 105. For a onewave evacuation, this travel time outside the EPZ does not contribute to the ETE. Assumed bus speeds of 40 mph, 36 mph and 34 mph for good weather, rain/light snow and heavy snow, respectively, will be applied for this activity for buses servicing the school population.

Activity: Passengers Leave Bus (FG)

A bus can empty within 5 minutes. The driver takes a 10minute break.

Activity: Bus Returns to Route for Second Wave Evacuation (GCDE)

As shown in Table 81, there are sufficient buses for evacuation of children in a single wave, if the entire EPZ is evacuated at once (a highly unlikely event). In the event of a shortfall of resources or drivers, a twowave evacuation is calculated. Due to the large number of schools in the EPZ, second wave ETE were not computed for each school or each Subarea. Rather, the following representative ETE is provided to estimate the additional time needed for a second wave evacuation of schools in each Subarea. The travel time from the host school back to the EPZ boundary and then back to the school was computed assuming an average speed of 40 mph as buses will be traveling counter to evacuating traffic. Times and distances are based on averages for all schools in the EPZ for good weather:

  • Buses arrive at the H.S at 3:05 (see average value in Table 82)
  • Bus discharges passengers (5 minutes) and driver takes a 10minute rest: 15 minutes
  • Bus returns to facility: 22 minutes (average distance to H.S (9.2 miles) + average distance to EPZ boundary (5.3 miles) at 40 mph)
  • Loading Time: 15 minutes
  • Bus travels back to the EPZ boundary: 30 minutes [average distance to EPZ boundary (5.3 miles) at network wide average speed at 4:00 (10.47 mph)]

Limerick Generating Station 84 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

  • Bus exits EPZ at time 3:05 + 0:15 + 0:22 + 0:15 + 0:30 = 4:30 (rounded up to nearest 5 minutes) after the ATE.

Given the average singlewave ETE for schools is 2:45 (see Table 82); a secondwave evacuation would require an additional 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 45 minutes on average. The average twowave ETE of schools is 20 minutes (4:50 4:30 = 0:20) less than the 90th percentile ETE of the full EPZ during a winter, midweek, midday scenario (Scenario 6), and does not impact protective action decision making.

Evacuation of Transit Dependent People (Residents without access to a vehicle)

A detailed computation of transit dependent population was done and is discussed in Section 3.6. The total number of transit dependent people per Subarea was determined using a weighted distribution based on population. See Table 311 for the distribution used. The number of buses required to evacuate this population was determined by the capacity of 30 people per bus. KLD designed 43 bus routes to service the major evacuation route in each Subarea from the center of the Subarea to the EPZ boundary, for the purposes of this study. The designed routes (as discussed in Section 10) are shown graphically in Figure 102 through Figure 104 and described in Table 101. Those buses servicing the transitdependent evacuees will first travel along these routes, then proceed out of the EPZ to give a representative ETE for transit dependent people within each Subarea.

Activity: Mobilize Drivers (ABC)

Mobilization time is the elapsed time from the ATE until the time the buses arrive at their designated route. The buses dispatched from the depots to service the transitdependent evacuees will be scheduled so that they arrive at their respective routes after majority of their passengers have completed their mobilization. As shown in Figure 54 (Residents with no Commuters), 80% of the evacuees will have completed their mobilization when the buses will begin their routes, 120 minutes after the ATE for good weather. Those routes with multiple buses have been designed such that buses are dispatched using 20minute headways. The use of bus headways ensures that those people who take longer to mobilize will be picked up.

Activity: Board Passengers (CD)

For multiple stops along a route, estimation of travel time must allow for the delay associated with stopping and starting at each pickup point. The time, t, required for a bus to decelerate at a rate, a, expressed in ft/sec/sec, from a speed, v, expressed in ft/sec, to a stop, is t = v/a.

Assuming the same acceleration rate and final speed following the stop yields a total time, T, to service boarding passengers:

2 ,

Where B = Dwell time to service passengers. The total distance, s in feet, travelled during the deceleration and acceleration activities is: s = v2/a. If the bus had not stopped to service passengers, but had continued to travel at speed, v, then its travel time over the distance, s, would be: s/v = v/a. Then the total delay (i.e. pickup time, P) to service passengers is:

Limerick Generating Station 85 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

Assigning reasonable estimates:

  • B = 50 seconds: a generous value for a single passenger, carrying personal items, to board per stop
  • v = 25 mph = 37 ft/sec
  • a = 4 ft/sec/sec, a moderate average rate Then, P 1 minute per stop. Allowing 30 minutes pickup time per bus run implies 30 stops per run, for good weather. It is assumed that bus acceleration and speed will be less in rain/light snow resulting in 10minute delays per bus and 20minute delays in heavy snow.

Activity: Travel to EPZ Boundary (DE)

The travel distance along the respective pickup routes within the EPZ is estimated using the UNITES software. Bus travel times within the EPZ are computed using average speeds computed by DYNEV, using the aforementioned methodology that was used for school evacuation.

Table 85 through Table 87 present the transitdependent population evacuation time estimates for each bus route calculated using the procedures above for good weather, rain/light snow and heavy snow, respectively.

For example, the ETE for the bus route servicing Amity is computed as 120 + 18 + 30 = 2:50 for good weather (rounded up to nearest 5 minutes). Here, 18 minutes is the time to travel 1.3 miles at 4.4 mph, the average speed output by the model for this route at 120 minutes.

The average single wave ETE (3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> and 55 minutes) for the transit dependent population does not exceed the 90th percentile ETE (4:50) for the general population for a winter, midweek, midday, good weather scenario and will not impact protective action decision making.

The ETE for a second wave (discussed below) is presented in the event there is a shortfall of available buses or bus drivers.

Activity: Travel to Reception Centers (EF)

The distances from the EPZ boundary to the reception centers are measured using GIS software along the most likely route from the EPZ exit point to the reception center. The general population reception centers are mapped in Figure 105. For a singlewave evacuation, this travel time outside the EPZ does not contribute to the ETE. Assumed bus speeds of 40 mph, 36 mph and 34 mph for good weather, rain/light snow and heavy snow, respectively, will be applied for this activity for buses servicing the transitdependent population.

Activity: Passengers Leave Bus (FG)

A bus can empty within 5 minutes. The driver takes a 10minute break.

Activity: Bus Returns to Route for Second Wave Evacuation (GCDE)

The buses assigned to return to the EPZ to perform a second wave evacuation of transit dependent evacuees will be those that have already evacuated transitdependent people who mobilized more quickly. The first wave of transitdependent people depart the bus, and the bus Limerick Generating Station 86 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

then returns to the EPZ, travels to the start of its route and proceeds to pick up more transit dependent evacuees along the route. The travel time back to the EPZ is equal to the travel time to the reception center.

The second wave ETE for the bus route servicing Amity is computed as follows for good weather:

  • Bus arrives at reception center at 3:00 in good weather (2:50 to exit EPZ + 10minute travel time to reception center).
  • Bus discharges passengers (5 minutes) and driver takes a 10minute rest: 15 minutes.
  • Bus returns to EPZ and completes second route: 10minutes (equal to travel time to reception center) + 28 minutes to travel to the start of the route and to rerun the route a second time (1.3 miles @ 40 mph [assumed speed since bus is traveling against traffic] + 1.3 miles @ 2.95 mph [route specific speed output from the model at this time]) = 38 minutes
  • Bus completes pickups along route: 30 minutes.
  • Bus exits EPZ at time 3:00 + 0:15 + 0:38 + 0:30 = 4:25 (rounded up to nearest 5 minutes) after the ATE.

The ETE for the completion of the second wave for all transitdependent bus routes are provided in Table 85 through Table 87. The average ETE (5:40) for a twowave evacuation of transit dependent people exceeds the ETE (4:50) for the general population at the 90th percentile for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) under winter, midweek, midday, good weather conditions (Scenario 6) and could impact protective action decision making.

The relocation of transitdependent evacuees from the reception centers to mass care centers, if the counties decide to do so, is not considered in this study.

Evacuation of Medical Facilities Activity: Mobilize Drivers (ABC)

As discussed in Section 2.4, and shown in Table 22, it is assumed that the mobilization time for medical facilities averages 90 minutes in good weather, 100 minutes in rain/light snow and 110 minutes in heavy snow. Specially trained medical support staff (working their regular shift) will be on site to assist in the evacuation of patients. It is further assumed that additional staff (if needed) could be mobilized over this same 90minute timeframe.

Activity: Board Passengers (CD)

Item 5 of Section 2.4 discusses transit vehicle loading times for medical facilities. Loading times are assumed to be 1 minute per ambulatory passenger, 5 minutes per wheelchair bound passenger, and 15 minutes per bedridden passenger. Item 3 of Section 2.4 discusses transit vehicle capacities to cap loading times per vehicle type. Concurrent loading on multiple buses, wheelchair buses, and ambulances at capacity is assumed such that the maximum loading times for buses (30 passengers times 1 minute per passenger), wheelchair vans (15 passengers times 5 minutes per passenger) and ambulances (2 passengers times 15 minutes per passenger) are 30, 75 and 30 minutes, respectively.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

Activity: Travel to EPZ Boundary (DE)

The travel distance along the respective pickup routes within the EPZ is estimated using the UNITES software. Transit vehicle travel times within the EPZ are computed using average speeds computed by DYNEV, using the aforementioned methodology that was used for school evacuation.

Table 88 through Table 810 summarize the ETE for medical facilities within the EPZ for good weather, rain/light snow and heavy snow, respectively. Average speeds output by the model for Scenario 6 (Scenario 7 for rain/light snow and Scenario 8 for heavy snow), Region 3, capped at 40 mph (36 mph for rain/light snow and 34 mph for heavy snow), are used to compute travel time to the EPZ boundary. The travel time to the EPZ boundary is computed by dividing the distance to the EPZ boundary by the average travel speed. The ETE is the sum of the mobilization time, total passenger loading time, and travel time out of the EPZ. Concurrent loading on multiple buses, wheelchair buses/vans, and ambulances at capacity is assumed. All ETE are rounded up to the nearest 5 minutes.

For example, the calculation of ETE for the medical facilities within Amity with 190 ambulatory residents during good weather is:

ETE: 90 + 1 x 30 + 18 = 168 min. or 2:20 (rounded up to the nearest 5 minutes)

It is assumed that the population at medical facilities is directly evacuated to appropriate host medical facilities. Relocation of this population to permanent facilities and/or passing through the reception center before arriving at the host facility are not considered in this analysis.

The average single wave ETE (3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> 30 minutes) for medical facilities in the EPZ does not exceed the 90th percentile ETE (4:50) for the general population for a winter, midweek, midday, good weather scenario and will not impact protective action decision making.

Activity: Vehicles Travel to Reception Centers (EF), Passengers Leave (FG), Vehicle Returns to Route for Second Wave Evacuation (GCDE)

As shown in Table 81, there are sufficient resources to evacuate the ambulatory patients at medical facilities within the EPZ in a single wave. In the event of a shortfall of resources or drivers, a twowave evacuation is calculated. A representative second wave ETE for medical facilities is computed as follows for good weather assuming the host medial facilities for these facilities are about 10 miles from the EPZ boundary following the most probable route:

Ambulatory patients (buses):

o On average, buses for ambulatory patients leave the EPZ at 3:22 after the ATE.

o Buses travels to host facility: 15 minutes (10 miles at 40 mph).

o Bus discharges passengers 29 minutes (average loading time for ambulatory patients from Table 88) and driver takes a 10minute rest: 39 minutes.

o Bus returns to facility: 15 minutes to travel back to the EPZ boundary (equal to the average travel time to host facility) + 10 minutes to travel back to the facility (average distance to EPZ = 6.7 miles from Table 88 @ 40 mph) = 25 minutes.

Limerick Generating Station 88 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

o Remaining ambulatory patients loaded on bus: 29 minutes (average from Table 88).

o Bus travels to EPZ boundary: 34 minutes (average distance from medical facilities to EPZ boundary (6.7 miles) at 11.94 mph (network wide average speed at 5:10).

o Bus exits EPZ at time 3:22 + 0:15 + 0:39 + 0:25 + 0:29 + 0:34 = 5:45 (rounded up to nearest 5 minutes) after the ATE.

The average ETE for a secondwave evacuation of transitdependent people exceeds the 90th percentile ETE of the entire EPZ for the general population for a winter, midweek, midday, good weather scenario (Scenario 6), which could impact the protective action decision making.

Correctional Facilities As discussed in Section 3.10, there are two correctional facilities within the EPZ - Montgomery County Correctional Facility and Graterford State Correctional Institution. The total inmate capacity of these facilities is 4,957 persons. County emergency personal indicated that these facilities will shelterinplace. As such, an ETE was not calculated for this facility.

8.2 ETE for Access and/or Functional Needs Population The access and/or functional needs population was provided by the offsite agencies and is further discussed in Section 3.9. Table 811 summarizes the ETE for access and/or functional needs population. The table is broken down by weather condition. It is assumed that the access and/or functional needs population will be picked up from their homes. Furthermore, it is conservatively assumed that patients are spaced 3 miles apart. Vehicle speeds approximate 20 mph between households in good weather (10% slower in rain/light snow and 15% in heavy snow).

Mobilization times of 120 minutes were used (130 minutes for rain/light snow and 140 minutes for heavy snow). The last household is assumed to be 5 miles from the EPZ boundary, and the networkwide average speed, capped at 40 mph (36 mph for rain/light snow and 34 mph for heavy snow), after the last pickup is used to compute travel time.

ETE is computed by summing mobilization time, loading time at first household, travel to the subsequent households, loading time at subsequent households, and travel time to the EPZ boundary. All ETE are rounded to the nearest 5 minutes.

For example, conservatively assuming no more than one access and/or functional needs person per household implies that 242 households need a wheelchair transport vehicle. It is assumed that 30 wheelchair buses are needed for wheelchair bound people to evacuate in a reasonable amount of time. The following outlines the ETE calculation for ambulances:

1. Assume 30 wheelchair buses are deployed, each with about 9 stops, to service a total of 242 households.
2. The ETE is calculated as follows:
a. Wheelchair buses arrive at the first pickup location: 120 minutes
b. Load passenger at first pickup: 5 minutes
c. Travel to next pickup locations: 72 minutes (3 miles @ 20 mph for 8 stops)
d. Load passenger at subsequent pickup location: 40 minutes (5 x 8 stops)

Limerick Generating Station 89 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

e. Travel to EPZ boundary: 28 minutes (5 miles @ 10.9 mph).

ETE: 120 + 5 + 72 + 40 + 28 = 4:25 after the ATE (rounded up to the nearest 5 minutes)

The ETE for the wheelchair bound access and/or functional needs population within the EPZ is less than the 90th percentile ETE for evacuation of the general population in the Full EPZ (Region R03) under winter, midweek, midday, good weather (Scenario 6) conditions.

As shown in Table 81, there are sufficient resources available to evacuate all access and/or functional needs population in a single wave. Therefore, a second wave ETE calculation was not considered for the access and/or functional needs population.

9 TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT STRATEGY This section discusses the suggested Traffic Management Plan (TMP) that is designed to expedite the movement of evacuating traffic. The resources required to implement this TMP include:

  • Personnel with the capabilities of performing the planned control functions of traffic guides (preferably, not necessarily, law enforcement officers).
  • The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) published by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) of the U.S.D.O.T. provides guidance for Traffic Control Devices to assist these personnel in the performance of their tasks. All state and most county transportation agencies have access to the MUTCD, which is available online:

http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov which provides access to the official PDF version.

  • A written plan that defines all Traffic Control Point (TCP) and Access Control Point (ACP locations, provides necessary details and is documented in a format that is readily understood by those assigned to perform traffic control.

The functions to be performed in the field are:

1. Facilitate evacuating traffic movements that safely expedite travel out of the EPZ.
2. Discourage traffic movements that move evacuating vehicles in a direction which takes them significantly closer to the power plant, or which interferes with the efficient flow of other evacuees.

The terms facilitate and discourage are employed rather than "enforce" and "prohibit" to indicate the need for flexibility in performing the traffic control function. There are always legitimate reasons for a driver to prefer a direction other than that indicated. For example:

  • A driver may be traveling home from work or from another location, to join other family members prior to evacuating.
  • An evacuating driver may be travelling to pick up a relative, or other evacuees.
  • The driver may be an emergency worker entering the area being evacuated to perform an important emergency service.

The implementation of a TMP must also be flexible enough for the application of sound judgment by the traffic guide.

The TMP is the outcome of the following process:

1. The existing TCPs and ACPs1 identified by each county agency in their existing emergency plans serve as the basis of the TMP, as per NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1.
2. The ETE analysis treated all controlled intersections that are existing TCP or ACP locations in the county plans as being controlled by actuated signals. In Appendix K, Table K1 identifies the number of intersections that were modeled as TCPs/ACPs.

3. Evacuation simulations were run using DYNEV II to predict traffic congestion during evacuation (see Section 7.3 and Figure 73 through Figure 78). These simulations help to identify the best routing and critical intersections that experience pronounced traffic congestion during an evacuation. Any critical intersections that would benefit from traffic or access control which are not already identified in the existing offsite agency plans are examined. No additional TCPs or ACPs were identified, which could benefit the ETE, as part of this study.
4. Prioritization of TCPs and ACPs. Application of traffic and access control at some TCPs and ACPs will have a more pronounced influence on expediting traffic movements than at other TCPs and ACPs. For example, TCPs controlling traffic originating from areas in close proximity to the power plant could have a more beneficial effect on minimizing potential exposure to radioactivity than those TCPs located farther from the power plant. Key locations for manual traffic control (MTC) were analyzed and their impact to ETE was quantified, as per NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1. See Appendix G for more detail.

Appendix G documents the existing TMP and a list of priority TCPs using the process enumerated above. No additional TCPs or ACPs were recommended as part of this study.

9.1 Assumptions The following are TMP assumptions made for this study:

The ETE calculations documented in Sections 7 and 8 assume that the TMP is implemented during evacuation.

The ETE calculations reflect the assumptions that all externalexternal trips are interdicted and diverted after 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> have elapsed from the ATE.

All transit vehicles and other responders entering the EPZ to support the evacuation are assumed to be unhindered by personnel manning TCPs and ACPs.

Study assumptions 1 through 3 in Section 2.5 further discuss the TCP and ACP operations.

9.2 Additional Considerations The use of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technologies can reduce the manpower and equipment needs, while still facilitating the evacuation process. Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) can also be placed within the EPZ to provide information to travelers regarding traffic conditions, route selection, and reception center information. DMS placed outside of the EPZ will warn motorists to avoid using routes that may conflict with the flow of evacuees away from the power plant. Highway Advisory Radio (HAR) can be used to broadcast information to evacuees during egress through their vehicles stereo systems. Automated Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) can also be used to provide evacuees with information. Internet websites can provide traffic and evacuation route information before the evacuee begins their trip, while the onboard navigation systems (GPS units) and smartphones can be used to provide information during the evacuation trip.

These are only several examples of how ITS technologies can benefit the evacuation process.

Consideration should be given that ITS technologies be used to facilitate the evacuation process, and any additional signage placed should consider evacuation needs.

10 EVACUATION ROUTES AND RECEPTION CENTERS 10.1 Evacuation Routes Evacuation routes are comprised of two distinct components:

  • Routing from a Subarea being evacuated to the boundary of the evacuation region and thence out of the EPZ.
  • Routing of transitdependent evacuees (schools, medical facilities, or permanent residents who do not own or have access to a private vehicle) from the EPZ boundary to host schools/reception centers.

Evacuees will select routes within the EPZ in such a way as to minimize their exposure to risk.

This expectation is met by the DYNEV II model routing traffic away from the plant, to the extent practicable. The DTRAD model satisfies this behavior by routing traffic so as to balance traffic demand relative to the available highway capacity to the extent possible. See Appendices B through D for further discussion. The major evacuation routes for the EPZ are presented in Figure 101. These routes will be used by the general population evacuating in private vehicles, and by the transitdependent population evacuating in buses, wheelchair transport vehicles, or ambulances. Transitdependent evacuees will be routed to reception centers. General population may evacuate to either a reception center or some alternate destination (i.e.,

lodging facilities, relatives home, campgrounds) outside the EPZ.

The routing of transitdependent evacuees from the EPZ boundary to reception centers is designed to minimize the amount of travel outside the EPZ from the points where these routes cross the EPZ boundary. The 43 bus routes shown graphically in Figure 102 through Figure 104 were designed by KLD to service the major routes through each Subarea. Some routes service the predefined pickup locations identified in the county public information brochure (not all Subareas have predefined pickup points). It is assumed that residents will walk to and congregate at these predesignated pickup locations, and that they can arrive at the stops within the 120minute bus mobilization time (good weather). The 43 routes listed in Table 101 are generalized representations of the bus routes shown in Figure 102 through Figure 104.

The routes listed in Table 101 are used to compute average speeds along major evacuation routes servicing each Subarea for the computation of the transit dependent ETE discussed in Section 8.

The specified bus routes are documented in Table 102 (refer to the maps of the linknode analysis network in Appendix K for node locations).

10.2 Reception Centers Figure 105 maps the general population and host schools for evacuees. Table 103 and Table 104 presents a list of reception centers by Subarea and the host schools by school district, respectively. Students will be transported to these host schools where they will be subsequently retrieved by their respective families, friends or guardians.

APPENDIX A Glossary of Traffic Engineering Terms

A. GLOSSARY OF TRAFFIC ENGINEERING TERMS Table A1. Glossary of Traffic Engineering Terms Term Definition Analysis Network A graphical representation of the geometric topology of a physical roadway system, which is comprised of directional links and nodes.

Link A network link represents a specific, onedirectional section of roadway. A link has both physical (length, number of lanes, topology, etc.) and operational (turn movement percentages, service rate, freeflow speed) characteristics.

Measures of Effectiveness Statistics describing traffic operations on a roadway network.

Node A network node generally represents an intersection of network links. A node has control characteristics, i.e., the allocation of service time to each approach link.

Origin A location attached to a network link, within the EPZ or Shadow Region, where trips are generated at a specified rate in vehicles per hour (vph). These trips enter the roadway system to travel to their respective destinations.

APPENDIX B DTRAD: Dynamic Traffic Assignment and Distribution Model

B. DYNAMIC TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT AND DISTRIBUTION MODEL This section describes the integrated dynamic trip assignment and distribution model named DTRAD (Dynamic Traffic Assignment and Distribution) that is expressly designed for use in analyzing evacuation scenarios. DTRAD employs logitbased pathchoice principles and is one of the models of the DYNEV II System. The DTRAD module implements pathbased Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) so that time dependent OriginDestination (OD) trips are assigned to routes over the network based on prevailing traffic conditions.

To apply the DYNEV II System, the analyst must specify the highway network, link capacity information, the timevarying volume of traffic generated at all origin centroids and, optionally, a set of accessible candidate destination nodes on the periphery of the EPZ for selected origins.

DTRAD calculates the optimal dynamic trip distribution (i.e., trip destinations) and the optimal dynamic trip assignment (i.e., trip routing) of the traffic generated at each origin node traveling to its set of candidate destination nodes, so as to minimize evacuee travel cost.

B.1 Overview of Integrated Distribution and Assignment Model The underlying premise is that the selection of destinations and routes is intrinsically coupled in an evacuation scenario. That is, people in vehicles seek to travel out of an area of potential risk as rapidly as possible by selecting the best routes. The model is designed to identify these best routes in a manner that realistically distributes vehicles from origins to destinations and routes them over the highway network, in a consistent and optimal manner, reflecting evacuee behavior.

For each origin, a set of candidate destination nodes is selected by the software logic and by the analyst to reflect the desire by evacuees to travel away from the power plant and to access major highways. The specific destination nodes within this set that are selected by travelers and the selection of the connecting paths of travel, are both determined by DTRAD. This determination is made by a logitbased path choice model in DTRAD, so as to minimize the trip cost, as discussed later.

The traffic loading on the network and the consequent operational traffic environment of the network (density, speed, throughput on each link) vary over time as the evacuation takes place.

The DTRAD model, which is interfaced with the DYNEV simulation model, executes a succession of sessions wherein it computes the optimal routing and selection of destination nodes for the conditions that exist at that time.

B.2 Interfacing the DYNEV Simulation Model with DTRAD The DYNEV II system reflects NRC guidance that evacuees will seek to travel in a general direction away from the location of the hazardous event. An algorithm was developed to support the DTRAD model in dynamically varying the Trip Table (OD matrix) over time from one DTRAD session to the next. Another algorithm executes a mapping from the specified geometric network (linknode analysis network) that represents the physical highway system, Limerick Generating Station B1 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

to a path network that represents the vehicle [turn] movements. DTRAD computations are performed on the path network: DYNEV simulation model, on the geometric network.

B.2.1 DTRAD Description DTRAD is the DTA module for the DYNEV II System.

When the road network under study is large, multiple routing options are usually available between trip origins and destinations. The problem of loading traffic demands and propagating them over the network links is called Network Loading and is addressed by DYNEV II using macroscopic traffic simulation modeling. Traffic assignment deals with computing the distribution of the traffic over the road network for given OD demands and is a model of the route choice of the drivers. Travel demand changes significantly over time, and the road network may have time dependent characteristics, e.g., timevarying signal timing or reduced road capacity because of lane closure, or traffic congestion. To consider these time dependencies, DTA procedures are required.

The DTRAD DTA module represents the dynamic route choice behavior of drivers, using the specification of dynamic origindestination matrices as flow input. Drivers choose their routes through the network based on the travel cost they experience (as determined by the simulation model). This allows traffic to be distributed over the network according to the timedependent conditions. The modeling principles of DTRAD include:

It is assumed that drivers not only select the best route (i.e., lowest cost path) but some also select less attractive routes. The algorithm implemented by DTRAD archives several efficient routes for each OD pair from which the drivers choose.

The choice of one route out of a set of possible routes is an outcome of discrete choice modeling. Given a set of routes and their generalized costs, the percentages of drivers that choose each route is computed. The most prevalent model for discrete choice modeling is the logit model. DTRAD uses a variant of PathSizeLogit model (PSL). PSL overcomes the drawback of the traditional multinomial logit model by incorporating an additional deterministic path size correction term to address path overlapping in the random utility expression.

DTRAD executes the Traffic Assignment (TA) algorithm on an abstract network representation called "the path network" which is built from the actual physical link node analysis network. This execution continues until a stable situation is reached: the volumes and travel times on the edges of the path network do not change significantly from one iteration to the next. The criteria for this convergence are defined by the user.

Travel cost plays a crucial role in route choice. In DTRAD, path cost is a linear summation of the generalized cost of each link that comprises the path. The generalized cost, c, for a link, a, is expressed as ca ta la sa ,

Limerick Generating Station B2 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

where ca is the generalized cost for link a, and , , and are cost coefficients for link travel time, distance, and supplemental cost, respectively. Distance and supplemental costs are defined as invariant properties of the network model, while travel time is a dynamic property dictated by prevailing traffic conditions. The DYNEV simulation model computes travel times on all edges in the network and DTRAD uses that information to constantly update the costs of paths. The route choice decision model in the next simulation iteration uses these updated values to adjust the route choice behavior. This way, traffic demands are dynamically reassigned based on time dependent conditions.

The interaction between the DTRAD traffic assignment and DYNEV II simulation models is depicted in Figure B1. Each round of interaction is called a Traffic Assignment Session (TA session). A TA session is composed of multiple iterations, marked as loop B in the figure.

The supplemental cost is based on the survival distribution (a variation of the exponential distribution). The Inverse Survival Function is a cost term in DTRAD to represent the potential risk of travel toward the plant:

sa = ln (p), 0 p l ; 0 p=

dn = Distance of node, n, from the plant d0 = Distance from the plant where there is zero risk

= Scaling factor The value of do = 12 miles, the outer distance of the EPZ. Note that the supplemental cost, sa, of link, a, is (high, low), if its downstream node, n, is (near, far from) the power plant.

B.2.2 Network Equilibrium In 1952, John Wardrop wrote:

Under equilibrium conditions traffic arranges itself in congested networks in such a way that no individual tripmaker can reduce his path costs by switching routes.

The above statement describes the User Equilibrium definition, also called the Selfish Driver Equilibrium. It is a hypothesis that represents a [hopeful] condition that evolves over time as drivers search out alternative routes to identify those routes that minimize their respective costs. It has been found that this equilibrium objective to minimize costs is largely realized by most drivers who routinely take the same trip over the same network at the same time (i.e.,

commuters). Effectively, such drivers learn which routes are best for them over time. Thus, the traffic environment settles down to a nearequilibrium state.

Clearly, since an emergency evacuation is a sudden, unique event, it does not constitute a long term learning experience which can achieve an equilibrium state. Consequently, DTRAD was not designed as an equilibrium solution, but to represent drivers in a new and unfamiliar situation, who respond in a flexible manner to realtime information (either broadcast or observed) in such a way as to minimize their respective costs of travel.

APPENDIX C DYNEV Traffic Simulation Model

C. DYNEV TRAFFIC SIMULATION MODEL This appendix describes the DYNEV traffic simulation model. The DYNEV traffic simulation model is a macroscopic model that describes the operations of traffic flow in terms of aggregate variables: vehicles, flow rate, mean speed, volume, density, queue length, on each link, for each turn movement, during each Time Interval (simulation time step). The model generates trips from sources and from Entry Links and introduces them onto the analysis network at rates specified by the analyst based on the mobilization time distributions. The model simulates the movements of all vehicles on all network links over time until the network is empty. At intervals, the model outputs Measures of Effectiveness (MOE) such as those listed in Table C1.

Model Features Include:

Explicit consideration is taken of the variation in density over the time step; an iterative procedure is employed to calculate an average density over the simulation time step for the purpose of computing a mean speed for moving vehicles.

Multiple turn movements can be serviced on one link; a separate algorithm is used to estimate the number of (fractional) lanes assigned to the vehicles performing each turn movement, based, in part, on the turn percentages provided by the DTRAD model.

At any point in time, traffic flow on a link is subdivided into two classifications: queued and moving vehicles. The number of vehicles in each classification is computed. Vehicle spillback, stratified by turn movement for each network link, is explicitly considered and quantified. The propagation of stopping waves from link to link is computed within each time step of the simulation. There is no vertical stacking of queues on a link.

Any link can accommodate source flow from zones via side streets and parking facilities that are not explicitly represented. This flow represents the evacuating trips that are generated at the source.

The relation between the number of vehicles occupying the link and its storage capacity is monitored every time step for every link and for every turn movement. If the available storage capacity on a link is exceeded by the demand for service, then the simulator applies a metering rate to the entering traffic from both the upstream feeders and source node to ensure that the available storage capacity is not exceeded.

A path network that represents the specified traffic movements from each network link is constructed by the model; this path network is utilized by the DTRAD model.

A twoway interface with DTRAD: (1) provides link travel times; (2) receives data that translates into link turn percentages.

All traffic simulation models are dataintensive. Table C2 outlines the necessary input data elements.

To provide an efficient framework for defining these specifications, the physical highway environment is represented as a network. The unidirectional links of the network represent roadway sections: rural, multilane, urban streets or freeways. The nodes of the network generally represent intersections or points along a section where a geometric property changes (e.g., a lane drop, change in grade or free flow speed).

Figure C1 is an example of a small network representation. The freeway is defined by the sequence of links, (20,21), (21,22), and (22,23). Links (8001, 19) and (3, 8011) are Entry and Exit links, respectively. An arterial extends from node 3 to node 19 and is partially subsumed within a grid network. Note that links (21,22) and (17,19) are gradeseparated.

C.1 Methodology C.1.1 The Fundamental Diagram It is necessary to define the fundamental diagram describing flowdensity and speeddensity relationships. Rather than settling for a triangular representation, a more realistic representation that includes a capacity drop, (IR)Qmax, at the critical density when flow conditions enter the forced flow regime, is developed and calibrated for each link. This representation, shown in Figure C2, asserts a constant free speed up to a density, k , and then a linear reduction in speed in the range, k k k 45 vpm, the density at capacity. In the flowdensity plane, a quadratic relationship is prescribed in the range, k k 95 vpm which roughly represents the stopandgo condition of severe congestion. The value of flow rate, Q , corresponding to k , is approximated at 0.7 RQ . A linear relationship between k and k completes the diagram shown in Figure C2. Table C3 is a glossary of terms.

The fundamental diagram is applied to moving traffic on every link. The specified calibration values for each link are: (1) Free speed, v ; (2) Capacity, Q  ; (3) Critical density, k 45 vpm ; (4) Capacity Drop Factor, R = 0.9 ; (5) Jam density, k . Then, v , k k

. Setting k k k , then Q RQ k for 0 k k 50 . It can be shown that Q 0.98 0.0056 k RQ for k k k , where k 50 and k 175.

C.1.2 The Simulation Model The simulation model solves a sequence of unit problems. Each unit problem computes the movement of traffic on a link, for each specified turn movement, over a specified time interval (TI) which serves as the simulation time step for all links. Figure C3 is a representation of the unit problem in the timedistance plane. Table C3 is a glossary of terms that are referenced in the following description of the unit problem procedure.

The formulation and the associated logic presented below are designed to solve the unit problem for each sweep over the network (discussed below), for each turn movement serviced Limerick Generating Station C2 KLD Engineering, P.C.

E S This metering factor is assigned appropriately to all feeder links and to the source flow, to be applied during the next network sweep, discussed later.

For the case Qb vQ shown, Q Cap, with t 0 and a queue of Qe Qe length, Q , formed by that portion of M and E that reaches the stopbar within the TI, but could v not discharge due to inadequate capacity.

C.1.3 Lane Assignment The unit problem is solved for each turn movement on each link. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate a value, LN , of allocated lanes for each movement, x. If in fact all lanes are specified by, say, arrows painted on the pavement, either as full lanes or as lanes within a turn bay, then the problem is fully defined. If however there remain unchannelized lanes on a link, then an analysis is undertaken to subdivide the number of these physical lanes into turn movement specific virtual lanes, LNx.

C.2 Implementation C.2.1 Computational Procedure The computational procedure for this model is shown in the form of a flow diagram as Figure C4. As discussed earlier, the simulation model processes traffic flow for each link independently over TI that the analyst specifies; it is usually 60 seconds or longer. The first step is to execute an algorithm to define the sequence in which the network links are processed so that as many links as possible are processed after their feeder links are processed, within the same network sweep. Since a general network will have many closed loops, it is not possible to guarantee that every link processed will have all of its feeder links processed earlier.

The processing then continues as a succession of time steps of duration, TI, until the simulation is completed. Within each time step, the processing performs a series of sweeps over all network links; this is necessary to ensure that the traffic flow is synchronous over the entire network. Specifically, the sweep ensures continuity of flow among all the network links; in the context of this model, this means that the values of E, M, and S are all defined for each link such that they represent the synchronous movement of traffic from each link to all of its outbound links. These sweeps also serve to compute the metering rates that control spillback.

Within each sweep, processing solves the unit problem for each turn movement on each link.

With the turn movement percentages for each link provided by the DTRAD model, an algorithm allocates the number of lanes to each movement serviced on each link. The timing at a signal, if any, applied at the downstream end of the link, is expressed as a G/C ratio, the signal timing needed to define this ratio is an input requirement for the model. The model also has the Limerick Generating Station C6 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

capability of representing, with macroscopic fidelity, the actions of actuated signals responding to the timevarying competing demands on the approaches to the intersection.

The solution of the unit problem yields the values of the number of vehicles, O, that discharge from the link over the time interval and the number of vehicles that remain on the link at the end of the time interval as stratified by queued and moving vehicles: Q and M . The procedure considers each movement separately (multipiping). After all network links are processed for a given network sweep, the updated consistent values of entering flows, E; metering rates, M; and source flows, S are defined so as to satisfy the no spillback condition.

The procedure then performs the unit problem solutions for all network links during the following sweep.

Experience has shown that the system converges (i.e., the values of E, M and S settle down for all network links) in just two sweeps if the network is entirely undersaturated or in four sweeps in the presence of extensive congestion with link spillback. (The initial sweep over each link uses the final values of E and M, of the prior TI). At the completion of the final sweep for a TI, the procedure computes and stores all measures of effectiveness for each link and turn movement for output purposes. It then prepares for the following time interval by defining the values of Q and M for the start of the next TI as being those values of Q and M at the end of the prior TI. In this manner, the simulation model processes the traffic flow over time until the end of the run. Note that there is no spacediscretization other than the specification of network links.

C.2.2 Interfacing with Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTRAD)

The DYNEV II system reflects NRC guidance that evacuees will seek to travel in a general direction away from the location of the hazardous event. Thus, an algorithm was developed to identify an appropriate set of destination nodes for each origin based on its location and on the expected direction of travel. This algorithm also supports the DTRAD model in dynamically varying the Trip Table (OD matrix) over time from one DTRAD session to the next.

Figure B1 depicts the interaction of the simulation model with the DTRAD model in the DYNEV II system. As indicated, DYNEV II performs a succession of DTRAD sessions; each such session computes the turn link percentages for each link that remain constant for the session duration, T , T , specified by the analyst. The end product is the assignment of traffic volumes from each origin to paths connecting it with its destinations in such a way as to minimize the networkwide cost function. The output of the DTRAD model is a set of updated link turn percentages which represent this assignment of traffic.

As indicated in Figure B1, the simulation model supports the DTRAD session by providing it with operational link MOE that are needed by the path choice model and included in the DTRAD cost function. These MOE represent the operational state of the network at a time, T T , which lies within the session duration, T , T . This burn time, T T , is selected by the analyst. For each DTRAD iteration, the simulation model computes the change in network operations over this burn time using the latest set of link turn percentages computed by the DTRAD model. Upon convergence of the DTRAD iterative procedure, the Limerick Generating Station C7 KLD Engineering, P.C.

simulation model accepts the latest turn percentages provided by the Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) model, returns to the origin time, T , and executes until it arrives at the end of the DTRAD session duration at time, T . At this time the next DTA session is launched and the whole process repeats until the end of the DYNEV II run.

APPENDIX D Detailed Description of Study Procedure

D. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF STUDY PROCEDURE This appendix describes the activities that were performed to compute Evacuation Time Estimates (ETE). The individual steps of this effort are represented as a flow diagram in Figure D1. Each numbered step in the description that follows corresponds to the numbered element in the flow diagram.

Step 1 The first activity was to obtain the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) boundary information and create a Geographic Information System (GIS) base map. The base map extends beyond the Shadow Region which extends approximately 15 miles (radially) from the power plant location.

The base map incorporates the local roadway topology, a suitable topographic background and the EPZ boundary.

Step 2 The 2020 Census block population information was obtained in GIS format. This information was used to estimate the permanent resident population within the EPZ and Shadow Region and to define the spatial distribution and demographic characteristics of the population within the study area. Transient, employment, and special facility data were obtained from Constellation, by each county within the EPZ and the previous ETE study, supplemented by internet searches and aerial imagery where data was missing.

Step 3 A kickoff meeting was conducted with major stakeholders (state and county emergency officials and Constellation personnel). The purpose of the kickoff meeting was to present an overview of the work effort, identify key agency personnel, and indicate the data requirements for the study. Specific requests for information were presented to the state and county emergency officials and Constellation utility managers. Unique features of the study area were discussed to identify the local concerns that should be addressed by the ETE study.

Step 4 Next, a physical survey of the roadway system in the study area was conducted to determine any changes to the roadway network since the previous study. The survey included consideration of the geometric properties of the highway sections, the channelization of lanes on each section of roadway, whether there are any turn restrictions or special treatment of traffic at intersections, the type and functioning of traffic control devices, gathering signal timings for pretimed traffic signals, and to make the necessary observations needed to estimate realistic values of roadway capacity. Roadway characteristics were also verified using aerial imagery.

Step 5 An online demographic survey of the households within the EPZ was conducted to identify household dynamics, trip generation characteristics, and evacuationrelated demographic information of the EPZ population. This information was used to determine important study Limerick Generating Station D1 KLD Engineering, P.C.

factors including the average number of evacuating vehicles used by each household, and the time required to perform preevacuation mobilization activities.

Step 6 A computerized representation of the physical roadway system, called a linknode analysis network, was developed using the most recent UNITES software (see Section 1.3) developed by KLD. Once the geometry of the network was completed, the network was calibrated using the information gathered during the road survey (Step 4) and information obtained from aerial imagery. Estimates of highway capacity for each link and other linkspecific characteristics were introduced to the network description. Traffic signal timings were input accordingly. The link node analysis network was imported into a GIS map. The 2020 permanent resident population estimates (Step 2) were overlaid in the map, and origin centroids where trips would be generated during the evacuation process were assigned to appropriate links.

Step 7 The EPZ is subdivided into 43 Subareas. Based on wind direction and speed, Regions (groupings of Subareas) that may be advised to evacuate, were developed.

The need for evacuation can occur over a range of timeofday, dayofweek, seasonal and weatherrelated conditions. Scenarios were developed to capture the variation in evacuation demand, highway capacity and mobilization time, for different time of day, day of the week, time of year, and weather conditions.

Step 8 The input stream for the DYNEV II System, which integrates the dynamic traffic assignment and distribution model, DTRAD, with the evacuation simulation model, was created for a prototype evacuation case - the evacuation of the entire EPZ for a representative scenario.

Step 9 After creating this input stream, the DYNEV II System was executed on the prototype evacuation case to compute evacuating traffic routing patterns consistent with the appropriate NRC guidelines. DYNEV II contains an extensive suite of data diagnostics which check the completeness and consistency of the input data specified. The analyst reviews all warning and error messages produced by the model and then corrects the database to create an input stream that properly executes to completion.

The model assigns destinations to all origin centroids consistent with a (general) radial evacuation of the EPZ and Shadow Region. The analyst may optionally supplement and/or replace these modelassigned destinations, based on professional judgment, after studying the topology of the analysis highway network. The model produces link and networkwide measures of effectiveness as well as estimates of evacuation time.

Step 10 The results generated by the prototype evacuation case are critically examined. The examination includes observing the animated graphics (using the EVAN software see Section 1.3) produced by DYNEV II and reviewing the statistics output by the model. This is a labor intensive activity, requiring the direct participation of skilled engineers who possess the necessary practical experience to interpret the results and to determine the causes of any problems reflected in the results.

Essentially, the approach is to identify those bottlenecks in the network that represent locations where congested conditions are pronounced and to identify the cause of this congestion. This cause can take many forms, either as excess demand due to high rates of trip generation, improper routing, a shortfall of capacity, or as a quantitative flaw in the way the physical system was represented in the input stream. This examination leads to one of two conclusions:

The results are satisfactory; or The input stream must be modified accordingly.

This decision requires, of course, the application of the user's judgment and experience based upon the results obtained in previous applications of the model and a comparison of the results of the latest prototype evacuation case iteration with the previous ones. If the results are satisfactory in the opinion of the user, then the process continues with Step 13. Otherwise, proceed to Step 11.

Step 11 There are many "treatments" available to the user in resolving apparent problems. These treatments range from decisions to reroute the traffic by assigning additional evacuation destinations for one or more sources, imposing turn restrictions where they can produce significant improvements in capacity, changing the control treatment at critical intersections so as to provide improved service for one or more movements, adding minor routes (which are paved and traversable) that were not previously modelled but may assist in an evacuation and increase the available roadway network capacity, or in prescribing specific treatments for channelizing the flow so as to expedite the movement of traffic along major roadway systems.

Such "treatments" take the form of modifications to the original prototype evacuation case input stream. All treatments are designed to improve the representation of evacuation behavior.

Step 12 As noted above, the changes to the input stream must be implemented to reflect the modifications undertaken in Step 11. At the completion of this activity, the process returns to Step 9 where the DYNEV II System is again executed.

Step 13 Evacuation of transitdependent evacuees and special facilities are included in the evacuation analysis. Fixed routing for transit buses and for school buses, ambulances, and other transit vehicles are introduced into the final prototype evacuation case data set. DYNEV II generates routespecific speeds over time for use in the estimation of evacuation times for the transit dependent and special facility population groups.

Step 14 The prototype evacuation case was used as the basis for generating all region and scenario specific evacuation cases to be simulated. This process was automated through the UNITES user interface. For each specific case, the population to be evacuated, the trip generation distributions, the highway capacity and speeds, and other factors are adjusted to produce a customized casespecific data set.

Step 15 All evacuation cases are executed using the DYNEV II System to compute ETE. Once results are available, quality control procedures are used to assure the results are consistent, dynamic routing is reasonable, and traffic congestion/bottlenecks are addressed properly. Traffic management plans are analyzed, and traffic control points are prioritized, if applicable.

Additional analysis is conducted to identify the sensitivity of the ETE to changes in some base evacuation conditions and model assumptions.

Step 16 Once vehicular evacuation results are accepted, average travel speeds for transit and special facility routes are used to compute ETE for transitdependent permanent residents, schools, preschools/day care centers, medical facilities, and other special facilities, except for correctional facilities, as correctional facilities shelter in place.

Step 17 The simulation results are analyzed, tabulated and graphed. The results were then documented, as required by NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1.

Step 18 Following the completion of documentation activities, the ETE criteria checklist (see Appendix N) was completed. An appropriate report reference is provided for each criterion provided in the checklist.

APPENDIX F Demographic Survey

F. DEMOGRAPHIC SURVEY F.1 Introduction The development of evacuation time estimates for the Limerick Generating Station (LGS) EPZ requires the identification of travel patterns, car ownership and household size of the population within the EPZ. Demographic information can be obtained from Census data. The use of this data has several limitations when applied to emergency planning. First, the Census data do not encompass the range of information needed to identify the time required for preliminary activities (mobilization) that must be undertaken prior to evacuating the area.

Secondly, Census data do not contain attitudinal responses needed from the population of the EPZ and consequently may not accurately represent the anticipated behavioral characteristics of the evacuating populace.

These concerns are addressed by conducting a demographic survey of a representative sample of the EPZ population. The survey is designed to elicit information from the public concerning family demographics and estimates of response times to well defined events. The design of the survey includes a limited number of questions of the form What would you do if ? and other questions regarding activities with which the respondent is familiar (How long does it take you to ?)

F.2 Survey Instrument and Sampling Plan Attachment A presents the final survey instrument used in this study. A draft of the instrument was submitted to stakeholders for comment. Comments were received and the survey instrument was modified accordingly, prior to conducting the survey.

Following the completion of the instrument, a sampling plan was developed. Since the demographic survey discussed herein was performed in 2020 and the 2020 Census data had not yet been released1, 2010 Census data was used to develop the sampling plan.

Following the completion of the instrument, a sampling plan was developed. A sample size of approximately 475 completed survey forms yields results with a sampling error of +/-4.5% at the 95% confidence level. The sample should be drawn from the EPZ population. Consequently, a list of zip codes in the EPZ was developed using GIS software. This list is shown in Table F1.

Along with each zip code, an estimate of the population and number of households in each area was determined by overlaying Census data and the EPZ boundary, again using GIS software. The proportional number of desired completed survey interviews for each area was identified, as shown in Table F1. Note that the 2010 average household size computed in Table F1 was an estimate of sampling purposes and was not sued in the ETE study.

The results of the survey exceeded the sampling plan. A total of 1,447 completed samples were obtained corresponding to a sampling error of +/-2.56% at the 95% confidence level based on the 2020 Census Data. Table F1 also shows the number of samples obtained within each zip code.

1 2020 Census data was released on September 16, 2021.

F.3 Survey Results The results of the survey fall into two categories. First, the household demographics of the area can be identified. Demographic information includes such factors as household size, automobile ownership, and automobile availability. The distributions of the time to perform certain pre evacuation activities are the second category of survey results. These data are processed to develop the trip generation distributions used in the evacuation modeling effort, as discussed in Section 5.

A review of the survey instrument reveals that several questions have a decline to state entry for a response. It is accepted practice in conducting surveys of this type to accept the answers of a respondent who offers a decline to state response for a few questions or who refuses to answer a few questions. To address the issue of occasional decline to state responses from a large sample, the practice is to assume that the distribution of these responses is the same as the underlying distribution of the positive responses. In effect, the decline to state responses are ignored and the distributions are based upon the positive data that is acquired.

F.3.1 Household Demographic Results Household Size Figure F1 presents the distribution of household size within the EPZ, based on the responses to the demographic survey. The average household contains 3.08 people according to the survey results. The 2020 Census indicates the average household size is 2.68 people. The difference between the household size obtained from the demographic survey and the Census data is approximately 15%, which exceeds the survey sampling error of 2.56%. Using the Census data household size will generate more evacuating vehicles (more conservative ETE). As such, we elected to use the Census estimate for people per household in this study.

Automobile Ownership The average number of automobiles available per household in the EPZ is 2.25. It should be noted that less than 1% of households do not have an access to a vehicle. The distribution of automobile ownership is presented in Figure F2. Figure F3 and Figure F4 present the automobile availability by household size.

Ridesharing Approximately 68% of households responded that they would share a ride with a neighbor, relative, or a friend, if a car was not available to them when advised to evacuate in the event of an emergency. Figure F5 presents this response.

Commuters Figure F6 presents the distribution of the number of commuters in each household.

Commuters are defined as household members who travel to work or college on a daily basis.

The data shows an average of 1.60 commuters in each household in the EPZ, and 84% of households have at least one commuter.

Commuter Travel Modes Figure F7 presents the mode of travel that commuters use on a daily basis. The vast majority of commuters use their private automobiles to travel to work. The data shows an average of 1.04 employees per vehicle, assuming 2 people per vehicle - on average - for carpools.

Impact of COVID19 on Commuters Figure F8 presents the distribution of the number of commuters in each household that were temporarily impacted by the COVID19 pandemic. Approximately 70% of households indicated that one ore more people in their household had a work and/or school commute that was temporarily impacted by the COVID19 pandemic. The commuter distributions were compared to the 2013 telephone survey to potentially measure the effects of the pandemic. See Section F.3.3.

Functional or Transportation Needs Figure F9 presents the distribution of the number of individuals with functional or transportation needs. Approximately 4% of households responded to the survey as having functional or transportation needs. Of those households, about 37% require a bus, 9% require a medical bus/van, 20% require a wheelchair accessible van, 6% require an ambulance, and 28%

require another type of transportation.

F.3.2 Evacuation Response Several questions were asked to gauge the populations response to an emergency. These are now discussed:

How many of the vehicles would your household use during an evacuation? The response is shown in Figure F10. On average, evacuating households would use 1.44 vehicles.

Would your family await the return of other family members prior to evacuating the area?

Of the survey participants who responded, 57% said they would await the return of other family members before evacuating and 43% indicated that they would not await the return of other family members, as shown in Figure F11.

If you had a household pet, would you take your pet with you if you were asked to evacuate the area? Based on the responses to the survey, about 74% of households have a family pet.

Of the households with pets, about 97% of them indicated that they would take their pets with them in an evacuation, as shown in Figure F12.

What type of pet(s) and/or animal(s) do you have? Based on the responses to the survey, about 95% of households with a pet have a household pet (dog, cat, bird, reptile, fish, rodent, ferret, hermit crab, frog, rabbit, snail, and/or turtle) and about 4% have farm animals (horse, chicken, goat, pig, duck, sheep, and/or cow) and less than 1% have other types of animals.

Do you have sufficient room in your vehicle(s) to evacuate with your pet(s) and/or animal(s)?

Based on the responses to the survey, 98% of households with a pet have sufficient room in their vehicle with their pet.

Emergency officials advise you to take shelter at home in an emergency. Would you? This question is designed to elicit information regarding compliance with instructions to shelter in place. The results indicate that 78% of households who are advised to shelter in place would do so; the remaining 22% would choose to evacuate the area. Note the baseline ETE study assumes 20% of households will not comply with the shelter advisory, as per Section 2.5.2 of NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1. Thus, the data obtained from the survey is in good agreement with the federal guidance.

Emergency officials advise you to take shelter at home now in an emergency and possibly evacuate later while people in other areas are advised to evacuate now. Would you? This question is designed to elicit information specifically related to the possibility of a staged evacuation. That is, asking a population to shelter in place now and then to evacuate after a specified period of time. Results indicate that 54% of households would follow instructions and delay the start of evacuation until so advised, while the other 46% would choose to begin evacuating immediately.

Emergency officials advise you to evacuate due to an emergency. Where would you evacuate to? This question is designed to elicit information regarding the destination of evacuees in case of an evacuation. 52% of households indicated that they would evacuate to a friend or relatives home, about 2% would choose to go to a reception center, 12% to a hotel, motel or campground, 7% to a second or seasonal home, less than 1% would choose not the evacuate and the remaining 26% answered other/dont know to this question, as shown in Figure F13.

F.3.3 Time Distribution Results The survey asked several questions about the amount of time it takes to perform certain pre evacuation activities. These activities involve actions taken by residents during the course of their daytoday lives. Thus, the answers fall within the realm of the responders experience.

The mobilization distributions provided below are the result of having applied the analysis described in Section 5.4.1 on the component activities of the mobilization.

As discussed in Section F.3.1 and shown in Figure F8, the COVID19 pandemic impacted more than half of the houses surveyed and could have an impact on the commuting patterns of those who live in the LGS EPZ. To compare the results obtained from the 2011 telephone survey and the 2020 demographic survey, the figures showing distributions involving commuters (time to prepare to leave work/college and time to travel home from work/college) will present both distributions.

How long does it take the commuter to complete preparation for leaving work or college?

Figure F14 presents the cumulative distribution for the 2020 and 2011 survey responses. For the 2020 survey, in all cases, the activity is completed within 60 minutes and approximately 90% can leave within 30 minutes. For the 2011 survey, in all cases, the activity is completed within 75 minutes and approximately 92% can leave within 30 minutes. The distributions are very similar for the first 60 minutes but the 2011 survey has a longer tail. The 2020 survey results for this question were utilized in this study.

How long would it take the commuter to travel home? Figure F15 presents the time to commute home from work or college for the EPZ population for the 2020 and 2011 survey responses. Approximately 84% of commuters can arrive home within 45 minutes of leaving work; all within 90 minutes, according to the 2020 survey. Approximately 87% of commuters can arrive home within 45 minutes of leaving work; all within 75 minutes, according to the 2011 survey. The 2020 survey results are shifted to the right, resulting in longer commuting times and more conservative estimates of the time to complete this activity. The 2020 survey results for this question were utilized in this study.

How long would it take the family to pack clothing, secure the house, and load the car?

Figure F16 presents the time required to prepare for leaving on an evacuation trip. In many ways this activity mimics a familys preparation for a short holiday or weekend away from home. Hence, the responses represent the experience of the responder in performing similar activities.

The distribution shown in Figure F16 has a long tail. About 90% of households can be ready to leave home within 120 minutes; the remaining households require up to an additional one hour and 15 minutes.

How long would it take you to clear 6 to 8 inches of snow from your driveway? During adverse, snowy weather conditions, an additional activity may be performed before residents can depart on the evacuation trip. Although snow scenarios assume that the roads and highways have been plowed and are passable (albeit at lower speeds and capacities), it may be necessary to clear a private driveway prior to leaving the home so that the vehicle can access the street. Figure F17 presents the time distribution for removing 6 to 8 inches of snow from a driveway. The time distribution for clearing the driveway also has a long tail; about 90% of driveways are passable within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 45 minutes. The last driveway is cleared 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> after the start of this activity. Note that those respondents (about 10%) who answered that they would not take time to clear their driveway were assumed to be ready immediately at the start of this activity. Essentially, they would drive through the snow on the driveway to access the roadway and begin their evacuation trip.

APPENDIX G Traffic Management Plan

G. TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1 indicates that the existing Traffic Control Points (TCPs) and Access Control Points (ACPs) identified by the offsite agencies should be used in the evacuation simulation modeling. The traffic and access control plans for the EPZ were provided by each county.

These traffic management plans (TMP) were reviewed, and the TCPs and ACPs were modeled accordingly. An analysis of the TCP and ACP locations was performed, and it was determined to model the ETE simulations with existing TCPs and ACPs that were documented in the county emergency plans, with no additional TCPs or ACPs recommended. Figure G1 maps the existing TCPs and ACPs.

The TCPs and ACPs are forms of manual traffic control (MTC). As discussed in Section 9, MTC at intersections (which are controlled) are modeled as actuated signals. If an intersection has a pretimed signal, stop, or yield control, and the intersection is identified as a TCP or ACP, the control type was changed to an actuated signal in the DYNEV II system, in accordance with Section 3.3 of NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1. TCPs and ACPs at existing actuated traffic signalized intersections were essentially left alone except where modifications to green time allocation were deemed necessary.

Table K1 provides the number of nodes with each control type in the analysis network. If the existing control was changed due to the point being a TCP or ACP, the control type is indicated as a TCP/ACP in Table K1. The TCPs within the study area are mapped as blue/green dots in Figure G1. These TCPs are concentrated along major evacuation routes throughout the EPZ (SR 73, SR 23, SR 100, SR 663, SR 113, etc.) and in population centers (Pottstown, Phoenixville, Boyertown, Royersford, Spring City and Schwenksville) and at access ramps to US 422. Theses TCPs would be manned during evacuation by traffic guides who would direct evacuees in the proper direction and facilitate the flow of traffic through the intersections.

G.1 Access Control Points The existing ACPs are located along the periphery of the EPZ tend to limit entry into the EPZ.

The existing ACPs as listed in the county plans are mapped as red squares in Figure G1. Some locations are both traffic and access control points (shown as orange circles with a black center). It is assumed that ACPs will be established within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> of the ATE to discourage through travelers from using major through routes which traverse the EPZ.

As discussed in Section 3.11, external traffic was considered along I476, Route 309, I76, I276, US 202 US 30 and US 422. The generation of these external trips (45,508 vehicles during daytime conditions and 18,203 vehicles in evening conditions) ceased at 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> after the ATE in the simulation to represent the diversion of traffic at these locations.

G.2 Analysis of Key TCP and ACP Locations As discussed in Section 5.2 of NUREG/CR7002, Rev. 1, MTC at intersections could benefit from ETE analysis. The TCP locations contained within the traffic management plan were analyzed to determine key locations where MTC would be most useful and can be readily implemented. As previously mentioned, signalized intersections that were actuated based on field data collection were essentially left as actuated traffic signals in the model, with modifications to green time allocation as needed. Other controlled intersections (pretimed signals, stop signs and yield signs) were changed to actuated traffic signals to represent the MTC that would be implemented according to the traffic management plan.

The majority of the TCPs identified in the TMP were located at intersections with actuated signals or intersections without control. Table G1 shows a list of the controlled intersections that were identified as TCPs in the TMP that were not previously actuated signals, including the type of control that currently exists at each location. To determine the impact of MTC at these locations, a summer, midweek, midday, good weather scenario (Scenario 1) evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) was simulated wherein these intersections were left as is (without MTC). The results were compared to the results presented in Section 7. Although localized congestion worsens, the ETE was not significantly impacted (at most 10 minutes) at the 90th percentile and was not impacted at the 100th percentile when MTC was not present at these intersections, as shown in Table G2. The remaining TCPs were left as actuated signals in the model and, therefore, had no impact to ETE.

The majority of the TCPs and ACPs in the study area are located along major evacuation routes near major population centers, as shown in Figure G1. The main thoroughfare on nearly all major evacuation routes and within the population centers are severely congested for several hours, as shown in Figures 73 through 78. Positioning police officers at intersections to facilitate access these roadways would have minimal benefit as the main thoroughfare is already heavily congested and there is heavy traffic in competing directions (northsouth and eastwest).

Although there is no reduction in ETE when MTC is implemented, traffic control can be beneficial in the reduction of localized congestion and driver confusion and can be extremely helpful for fixed point surveillance, amongst other things. Should there be a shortfall of personnel to staff the TCPs, the list of locations provided in Table G1 could be considered as priority locations when implementing the TMP as all other TCPs already have actuated traffic signals which would mimic MTC.

APPENDIX J Representative Inputs to and Outputs from the DYNEV II System

J. REPRESENTATIVE INPUTS TO AND OUTPUTS FROM THE DYNEV II SYSTEM This appendix presents data input to and output from the DYNEV II System.

Table J1 provides source (vehicle loading) and destination information for several roadway segments (links) in the analysis network. There are a total of 924 source links (origins) in the model. The source links are shown as centroid points in Figure J1. Evacuees travel a straight line distance of 5.34 miles, on average, to exit the study area.

Table J2 provides network-wide statistics (average travel time, average delay time1, average speed and number of vehicles) for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) for each scenario. As expected, rain, rain/light snow and heavy snow scenarios (Scenarios 2, 4, 7, 8, 10 and 11) exhibit slower average speeds, higher delays and longer average travel times than good weather scenarios. When comparing scenario 13 (special event) and scenario 12, the additional vehicles the special event introduces has no impact on average travel times and delay and minimal impact on network speeds. When comparing scenario 14 (roadway closure) and Scenario 1, the single lane closure on US 422 eastbound lowers the average speeds, causes higher delays and increases the travel times.

Table J3 provides statistics (average speed and travel time) for the major evacuation routes -

US 422, State Route (SR) 100, SR 73 and SR 23 - for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) under Scenario 1 conditions. As discussed in Section 7.3 and shown in Figures 73 through 78, all major evacuation routes are congested for most of the evacuation after the first hour.

As such, the average speeds are slower (and travel times longer) after the first hour. By the fourth and fifth hour of the evacuation, congestion on most of these routes (except SR 100 northbound and US 422 westbound) starts to dissipate and average speeds increase.

Table J4 provides the number of vehicles discharged and the cumulative percent of total vehicles discharged for each link exiting the analysis network for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (region R03) under scenario 1 conditions.

Figure J2 through Figure J15 plot the trip generation time versus the ETE for each of the 14 Scenarios considered. The distance between the trip generation and ETE curves is the travel time. Plots of trip generation versus ETE are indicative of the level of traffic congestion during evacuation. For low population density sites, the curves are close together, indicating short travel times and minimal traffic congestion. For higher population density sites, the curves are farther apart indicating longer travel times and the presence of traffic congestion. As seen in Figure J2 through Figure J15, the curves are spatially separated as a result of the pronounced traffic congestion in the EPZ, which was discussed in detail in Section 7.3.

1 Computed as the difference of the average travel time and the average ideal travel time under free flow conditions.

APPENDIX K Evacuation Roadway Network

K. EVACUATION ROADWAY NETWORK As discussed in Section 1.3, a linknode analysis network was constructed to model the roadway network within the study area. Figure K1 provides an overview of the linknode analysis network.

The figure has been divided up into 99 more detailed figures (Figure K2 through Figure K100) which show each of the links and nodes in the network.

The analysis network was calibrated using the observations made during the field surveys conducted in November 2020.

Table K1 summarizes the number of nodes by the type of control (stop sign, yield sign, pretimed signal, actuated signal, traffic and/or access control point [TCP/ACP], uncontrolled).

Table K1. Summary of Nodes by the Type of Control Number of Control Type Nodes Uncontrolled 2,653 Pretimed 2 Actuated 698 Stop 385 TCP/ACP 356 Yield 35 Total: 4,129 Limerick Generating Station K1 KLD Engineering, P.C.

APPENDIX M Evacuation Sensitivity Studies

M. EVACUATION SENSITIVITY STUDIES This appendix presents the results of a series of sensitivity analyses. These analyses are designed to identify the sensitivity of the ETE to changes in some base evacuation conditions.

M.1 Effect of Changes in Trip Generation Times A sensitivity study was performed to determine whether changes in the estimated trip generation time have an effect on the ETE for the EPZ. Specifically, if the tail of the mobilization distribution were truncated (i.e., if those who responded most slowly to the ATE could be persuaded to respond much more rapidly), or if the tail were elongated (i.e., spreading out the departure of evacuees to limit the demand during peak times), how would the ETE be affected?

The case considered was Scenario 1, Region R03; a summer, midweek, midday, good weather evacuation of the entire EPZ. Table M1 presents the results of this study.

As discussed in Section 7.3, traffic congestion persists within the EPZ for 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and 45 minutes after the ATE. Since the base trip generation time is shorter than this time, the ETE for the 100th percentile are dictated by the time needed to clear the congestion within the EPZ.

Compressing the mobilization time by one hour reduces the 100th percentile ETE by 20 minutes

- not a significant change - and has no impact on the 90th percentile ETE. When elongating the mobilization time, the 100th percentile ETE decreases by 10 minutes and the 90th percentile ETE increases by 15 minutes - not significant changes. Although counterintuitive, elongating the trip generation can reduce ETE since vehicles load onto the roadway system at a lower rate which gives the system more time to process the same number of vehicles. As a result, less congestion builds and the 100th percentile ETE decreases. As such, if the time to mobilize varies, ETE will remain about the same (+ 15 minutes at most).

M.2 Effect of Changes in the Number of People in the Shadow Region Who Relocate A sensitivity study was conducted to determine the effect on ETE of changes in the percentage of people who decide to relocate from the Shadow Region. The case considered was scenario 1, region R03; a summer, midweek, midday, good weather evacuation of the entire EPZ. The movement of people in the Shadow Region has the potential to impede vehicles evacuating from an evacuation region within the EPZ. Refer to Sections 3.2 and 7.1 for additional information on population within the Shadow Region.

Table M2 presents the evacuation time estimates for each of the cases considered. The results show that reducing the shadow evacuation to 0% reduces the 90th and 100th percentile ETE by 10 minutes and 35 minutes, respectively. Tripling the shadow percentage increases the ETE by 35 for both the 90th and 100th percentiles - a significant change. Full evacuation of the Shadow Region increases the ETE by 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 15 minutes and 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 35 minutes for the 90th and 100th percentiles, respectively - also a significant change.

As discussed in Section 7.3 and shown in Figures 73 through 78, there is pronounced congestion in the Shadow Region, especially in King of Prussia, Norristown, Birdsboro and East Greenville. The Limerick Generating Station M1 KLD Engineering, P.C.

Evacuation Time Estimate Rev. 0

additional evacuating shadow vehicles intensifies this congestion and significantly increases ETE.

Limiting shadow evacuation could help to reduce ETE.

M.3 Effect of Changes in EPZ Resident Population A sensitivity study was conducted to determine the effect on ETE of changes in the permanent resident population within the study area (EPZ plus Shadow Region). As population in the study area changes over time, the time required to evacuate the public may increase, decrease, or remain the same. Since the ETE is related to the demand to capacity ratio present within the study area, changes in population will cause the demand side of the equation to change and could impact ETE.

As per the NRCs response to the Emergency Planning Frequently Asked Question (EPFAQ) 2013001, the ETE population sensitivity study must be conducted to determine what percentage increase in permanent resident population causes an increase in the 90th percentile ETE of 25% or 30 minutes, whichever is less. The sensitivity study must use the scenario with the longest 90th percentile ETE (excluding the roadway impact scenario and the special event scenario if it is a one day per year special event).

Thus, the sensitivity study was conducted using the following planning assumptions:

1. The percent change in population within the study area was increased by up to 12%.

Changes in population were applied to permanent residents only (as per federal guidance), in both the EPZ and the Shadow Region.

2. The transportation infrastructure remained fixed (as presented in Appendix K); the presence of future proposed roadway changes and/or highway capacity improvements were not considered.
3. The study was performed for the 2Mile Region (R01), the 5Mile Region (R02) and the entire EPZ (R03).
4. The scenario (excluding roadway impact and special event) which yielded the highest 90th percentile ETE values for the entire EPZ was selected as the case to be considered in this sensitivity study (Scenario 8 - Winter, Midweek, Midday with Heavy Snow).

Table M3 presents the results of the sensitivity study.Section IV of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50, and NUREG/CR7002 Rev. 1, Section 5.4, require licensees to provide an updated ETE analysis to the NRC when a population increase within the EPZ causes the longest 90th percentile ETE values (for the 2Mile Region, 5Mile Region or entire EPZ) to increase by 25% or 30 minutes, whichever is less. All the base ETE values are greater than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />; thus, 25% of these base ETE is always greater than 30 minutes. Therefore, 30 minutes is the lesser and is the criterion for updating.

Those percent population changes which result in the longest 90th percentile ETE change greater than or equal to 30 minutes are highlighted in red in Table M3 - a 12% or greater increase in the EPZ permanent resident population. Constellation will have to estimate the EPZ population on an annual basis. If the EPZ population increases by 12% or more between decennial censuses, an updated ETE analysis will be needed.

M.4 Enhancements in Evacuation Time This appendix documents sensitivity studies on critical variables that could potentially impact ETE.

Possible improvements to ETE are further discussed below:

Reducing or prolonging the trip generation time by an hour impacts the 90th percentile ETE by 15 minutes and the 100th percentile ETE by up to 20 minutes (Section M.1). Public outreach encouraging evacuees to mobilize more quickly or in a timely manner could slightly impact the ETE.

Increased shadow evacuation can impact the 90th percentile ETE by up to 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 15 minutes (Section M.2). Public outreach could be considered to inform those people within the EPZ (and potentially beyond the EPZ) that if they are not advised to evacuate, they should not.

Population growth results in more evacuating vehicles, which could increase ETE (Section M.3). Public outreach to inform people within the EPZ to evacuate as a family in a single vehicle would reduce the number of evacuating vehicles and could reduce ETE or offset the impact of population growth.
