Shannon, Seacoast Anti-Pollution League, New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution and Town of Hampton, Motion to Admit Late-Filed Contention and Reopen the Record. | Therefore, we have analyzed the possible use of a Whalen WS-3000 loudspeaker. | ||
We have also assumed that the aircraft-borne system will provide both tone and message alert as the Applicants' claim the pole mounted warning devices will provide. | |||
The purpose of this analysis and affidavit is to illustrate the possible limitations in the design of an aircraft-borne siren system and to alert the Board to the need for clear evidence indicating how aircraft-borne emergency notification is to be accomplished. | |||

typical emergency evacuation announcement would last for 15 seconds. | |||
(For example, the i | |||
emergency evacuation announcement serving beach areas is approximately 12 seconds long. ) Logically, a person on the I | |||
ground should hear the complete message from start to finish at least once per flyover. | |||
To achieve | |||
: this, the loudspeaker coverage pattern passing over the ground must 1 | |||

last twice as long as the message length, | last twice as long as the message length, i.e. | ||
Hence, | 30 seconds. | ||
: Hence, the required loudspeaker coverage duration is considerably greater than would occur with the 2000 foot 0 | |||
If the loudspeaker were oriented with the 19. | 0 | ||
: altitude, 80 mph aircraft | |||
the FEMA required siren level is 60 dBC. | : speed, and the 45 /19.5 loudspeaker coverage angles. | ||
6. | |||
If the loudspeaker were oriented with the 45 coverage angle aligned with the direction of the aircraft, which again is presumed to travel at 80 mph, an aircraft altitude of 4300 feet would be required to achieve a 30 second coverage duration, but would result in a maximum signal level at the 0 | |||
ground of only 82 dBC. | |||
In the 45 loudspeaker orientation, it would take 25 minutes to traverse the area of Newburyport requiring coverage. | |||
0 If the loudspeaker were oriented with the 19.5 coverage angle aligned with the direction of the aircraft, which again is presumed to travel at 80 mph, an aircraft altitude of 10,000 feet would be required to achieve the 30 second coverage duration, but would result in a maximum signal 0 | |||
level at the ground of only 73 dBC. | |||
In the 19.5 l | |||
loudspeaker coverage orientation, it would take 5 minutes to traverse the area of Newburyport requiring coverage. | |||
7. | |||
In low density areas (less than 2000 persons / square mile), | |||
the FEMA required siren level is 60 dBC. | |||
In high density areas (more than 2000 persons / square mile), | |||
the FEMA required siren level is 70 dBC. | |||
According to FEMA 4 | |||
a. | a. | ||

requirements, the siren level .must be' 10 dB or more above | requirements, the siren level.must be' 10 dB or more above | ||
containing the-siren tone. | 'I the sound-level in the one-third octave frequency band containing the-siren tone. | ||
.Hence, this requirement presumes that the background levels in the siren one-third octave frequency band must not' exceed 50 dBC in' low density. areas and 60 dBC in high density areas. | |||
i | |||
and 81 dBC respectively for low and high density areas. | ' According.to our. analysis, these 630 Hz one-third octave band ambient. sound levels translate into C-weighted ambient | ||
= sound levels in a frequency range of 250 to.4000 Hz of.71 and 81 dBC respectively for low and high density areas. | |||
I Presuming that a. minimum C-weighted speech sound level of 10 dB over masking (ambient) -is needed, speech levels of 81 and 91 dBC'would be required in low and high density areas respectively. | |||
In' order to. provide an acceptable _ speech sound level-at the ground for both low and high density j | |||
areas, the aircraft can not fly at an altitude over 2000. | |||

It must be noted, however, that a helicopter traveling at slow speeds at an altitude of 2000 feet would produce sound levels at the ground of between 80 and 85 dBC in the frequency range of 250 to 4000 Hz. | |||
Hence, speech message levels may need to be as high as 95 dBC (10 dB over the helicopter background sound level of 85 dBC) which is louder 6 | |||

-AFFIDAVIT QE GREGORY h TOCCI i
I, Gregory C.
Tocci, do depose and say as follows:
- 1. -
I am President and Principal Consultant of Cavanaugh Tocci Associates, Inc.,
Consultants in Acoustics, 327 F Boston Post Road, Sudbury, Massachusetts, 01776.
My qualifications have been earlier presented to this Board in connection with these dockets.1 A copy of my resume is attached to this Affidavit as Exhibit 1.
f 1
Affidavit of Gregory C.
Tocci in the matter of Public l:
Service Company of New Hampshire, et al (Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2), Docket Nos.: 50-443-OL and 50-444-OL (On-Site Emergency Planning and Safety Issues) dated October 2, 1987.
11 % $ hoo 3

2.
Cavanaugh Tocci Associates, Inc. has been retained by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of the Attorney General, to assess the possible use of a fixed-wing aircraft equipped with a loudspeaker for alerting the populace in Newburyport of an emergency condition at the Seabrook
)
Station.
I understand that this method of warning has been proposed to replace the use of pole mounted warning devices in Newburyport.
This method is as described in the 2
Applicants'
Response
dated October 1,
1987 and its s
attachments.
3 The Applicants' response did not contain any specific information describing an aircraft-borne system for 4
emergency notification.
Therefore, we have analyzed the possible use of a Whalen WS-3000 loudspeaker.
We have also assumed that the aircraft-borne system will provide both tone and message alert as the Applicants' claim the pole mounted warning devices will provide.
The purpose of this analysis and affidavit is to illustrate the possible limitations in the design of an aircraft-borne siren system and to alert the Board to the need for clear evidence indicating how aircraft-borne emergency notification is to be accomplished.
2 In the matter of Public Service Company of New Hampshire, Et al (Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2) Applicants' Response to Contention of Attorney General James M.
Shannon, Seacoast Anti-Pollution League, New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution and Town of Hampton, Motion to Admit Late-Filed Contention and Reopen the Record.
{

[
3.
If ' a Wha' en WS-3000 loudspeaker is carried by an aircraft l
traveling at 80 mph at an altitude of 2000 feet and'if the I
loudspeaker is ' facing downward (coverage-angle axis i
vertical) with'~ its -4 50 coverage angle aligned with the
' direction of the aircraft, the siren -level " on the ground beneath the aircraft would endure at a constant level of 95 dBC for'14 seconds.
If the Whalen WS-3000 : loudspeaker were
{
0 oriented with its 19.5 coverage angle aligned with the direction of ' the aircraft, the 95 dBC siren level on the I
ground beneath the aircraft would endure at a ' constant level for 6 seconds.
i 4.
Presuming that a total area of 8.3 square miles (the area of Newburyport) is to be covered by an aircraft traveling 80 mph at an altitude of 2000 feet (as the Applicants' assume in ' the Sutherland Affidavit) with the 45 coverage angle aligned with the direction of the aircraft, it would require j
at least-50 minutes for this aircraft to fully cover 0
Newburyport.
With the 19.5 loudspeaker orientation, it l
would take 20 minutes to cover Newburyport.
J i
5.
It is presumed that a
typical emergency evacuation announcement would last for 15 seconds.
(For example, the i
emergency evacuation announcement serving beach areas is approximately 12 seconds long. ) Logically, a person on the I
ground should hear the complete message from start to finish at least once per flyover.
To achieve
- this, the loudspeaker coverage pattern passing over the ground must 1
3 4
last twice as long as the message length, i.e.
30 seconds.
- Hence, the required loudspeaker coverage duration is considerably greater than would occur with the 2000 foot 0
0
- altitude, 80 mph aircraft
- speed, and the 45 /19.5 loudspeaker coverage angles.
6.
If the loudspeaker were oriented with the 45 coverage angle aligned with the direction of the aircraft, which again is presumed to travel at 80 mph, an aircraft altitude of 4300 feet would be required to achieve a 30 second coverage duration, but would result in a maximum signal level at the 0
ground of only 82 dBC.
In the 45 loudspeaker orientation, it would take 25 minutes to traverse the area of Newburyport requiring coverage.
0 If the loudspeaker were oriented with the 19.5 coverage angle aligned with the direction of the aircraft, which again is presumed to travel at 80 mph, an aircraft altitude of 10,000 feet would be required to achieve the 30 second coverage duration, but would result in a maximum signal 0
level at the ground of only 73 dBC.
In the 19.5 l
loudspeaker coverage orientation, it would take 5 minutes to traverse the area of Newburyport requiring coverage.
7.
In low density areas (less than 2000 persons / square mile),
the FEMA required siren level is 60 dBC.
In high density areas (more than 2000 persons / square mile),
the FEMA required siren level is 70 dBC.
According to FEMA 4
a.
w~
requirements, the siren level.must be' 10 dB or more above
'I the sound-level in the one-third octave frequency band containing the-siren tone.
.Hence, this requirement presumes that the background levels in the siren one-third octave frequency band must not' exceed 50 dBC in' low density. areas and 60 dBC in high density areas.
i
' According.to our. analysis, these 630 Hz one-third octave band ambient. sound levels translate into C-weighted ambient
= sound levels in a frequency range of 250 to.4000 Hz of.71 and 81 dBC respectively for low and high density areas.
I Presuming that a. minimum C-weighted speech sound level of 10 dB over masking (ambient) -is needed, speech levels of 81 and 91 dBC'would be required in low and high density areas respectively.
In' order to. provide an acceptable _ speech sound level-at the ground for both low and high density j
areas, the aircraft can not fly at an altitude over 2000.
feet.
i 8.
As indicated above, an aircraft-borne system traveling 80
)
mph at an altitude of 2000 feet will result in signal j.
durations of only 14 seconds with the 45 loudspeaker coverage angle aligned with the aircraft direction, and 6 0
seconds with the 19.5 loudspeaker coverage angle aligned with the aircraft direction.
This is considerably less than the 3 minute warning signal required by NUREG-0654.
5

.j u
.l If a Whalen WS-3000 loudspeaker were to be carried-by. an i
aircraft-at a 200'O foot al'titude, the N U R E G - 0 6 5'4 m i n i m u m
.i signal duration would require an aircraft speed of 6.7 mph-l with -' the -45 coverage anglefaligned with the direction of the - aircraft ~ and 0.52 mph with the ' 19. 5 coverage l angle l
0 t
aligned with the direction of the aircraft.
Obviously, these low speeds are not possible for a fixed-
~
l wing aircraft..
The 6.7 mph
- velocity, although unrealistically slow, might be possible for a helicopter
..(rotary-wing aircraft).
I 9.
For this analysis, I have presumed that a 6.7 mph helicopter j
1 speed is possible.
Traveling at this speed, it would take 9.6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> to cover the 8.3 square miles.of Newburyport.
So, in order to meet a further provision of NUREG-0654 that siren and message notification occur within 15 minutes of an emergency, a total of 38 helicopters would be needed, all traveling at 6.7 mph at an altitude of 2000
- feet, each carrying a Whalen WS-3000 with'its 45 coverage angle aligned with the direction of the helicopter.
10.
It must be noted, however, that a helicopter traveling at slow speeds at an altitude of 2000 feet would produce sound levels at the ground of between 80 and 85 dBC in the frequency range of 250 to 4000 Hz.
Hence, speech message levels may need to be as high as 95 dBC (10 dB over the helicopter background sound level of 85 dBC) which is louder 6
E_z_:---
- s
-.e
'%},
-l than can be achieved with a.WS-3000 loudspeaker at'2000 feet altitude.-
- 11.. In conclusion, based on these above presumptions, an aircraft-borne-loudspeaker system probably can not' adequately ' cover Newburyport in accordance with NUREG-0654 requirements.
Although aircraft-borne loudspeaker systems j
have been used in - the past for purposes similar to that intended for Newburyport, our studies-have indicated that j
-careful analysis of an aircraft-borne loudspeaker system s
must be conducted and tested ' prior to Atomic Safety and.
l Licensing Board acceptance.
Signed under,the penalties of perjury this ninth day of i
November, 1987.
