EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB I ALERTING AND NOTIFICATION Purpose This tab identifies the systems and their uses to notify emergency response personnel and to alert the public within the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) adjacent to the South Texas Project Electric Generating.Station (STPEGS).
A. Situation The need to warn the public of impending danger could arise at any time. In order to reduce loss of lives, adequate and timely warnings must be provided. Appropriate action-oriented information must be supplied.
B. Assumptions A warning period will be available for most emergency situations although the amount of lead time will vary. Proper use of this warning period will save lives and reduce injuries.
II. Authority The Alerting and Notification Tab to Annex W is promulgated under the authorities identified in the Basic D Plan and Annex W.
III. Systems and Equipment The following systems and equipment are available to the Matagorda County elected officials on a continuous, 24-hours per day basis, throughout the year. It is conceivable that the primary or first preference system may be inoperative due to maintenance or equipment malfunction. Thus primary and alternate methods are developed to ensure distribution of pertinent information in a timely fashion.
A. Sirens There are 32 sirens placed within or around the Ten Mile Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) of the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS) to provide outdoor alerting and notification. Figure 1 is a map of the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) showing the siren locations and designed coverage.
The sirens produce an audio tone to alert the public of an emergency situation. The design alerting tone volume level is at least H19.5 dB(A) at 100 feet. The alerting tone is a steady 3-5 minute tonet Each siren is mounted on an approximately 45 foot pole and is provided with local power and control switches for servicing and manual activation or deactivation if necessary.
These sirens are electronically controlled by a radio and computer system. The computer control system is capable of continuously monitoring the status of each siren and electronically reporting that status to the central control point in the Matagorda County Sheriffs Department. The following system parameters are continuously monitored and automatically reported to the central control point by the electronics at each siren:
ANNEX-W.TOI W -11 September 22, 2014 Revision 13
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB 1 ALERTING AND NOTIFICATION The sirens operate on both AC and DC power, providing additional capability during an emergen y situation. I An alternate control system has been installed in the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS) Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) to provide a backup operating point for the Matagorda County Officials.
Refer to Procedure 23 "Activation of Public Warning System" for specifics on the Siren System.
B. Emergency Alert System Radios An indoor alert and notification system comprised of alert radios are provided for those residents living within the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone but outside effective siren range. In addition, radios are offered to recreational areas, industrial locations and special facilities within 10 miles of the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station. The alert radios are activated by an Emergency Alert System service. The National Weather Service (NWS), KMKS and KK-IA are emergency alert sources to name a few in the system.
The radios are activated by an emergency Alert System Service. An emergency message and/or instructions are then broadcast from the local officials to the public.
An additional feature of the radio is an internal battery backup power source. When power is interrupted the radio reverts to the internal battery for its power source.
C. Emergency Alert System The National Weather Service (NWS) is designated as the primary Emergency Alert System (EA ;)
source for the Alerting and Notification System. There are two radio stations in Matagorda County that are included in the Emergency Response Program. KMKS-FM and KKHA-FM are 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> stations and have the capability to operate 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> per day during an emergency. Each station ha; the capabilities to receive and disseminate emergency information to the public. I The radio broadcast frequencies for emergency information in the Matagorda County area are:
National Weather Service 162.425 Mhz KMKS-FM 102.5 Mhz KKHA-FM 92.5 Mhz D. Cable Television Cable television services are available in Bay City, Palacios, and other areas of the County. The cable television service companies have the capability to override a normal transmission with tone, voice, print, or any combination of the three. The cable override function is used during severe weather and is available to alert and inform the public who subscribe to the service within the Plume Exposure I *Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ), when requested by the local officials.
E. Weather Alert Radio ANNEX-W.T01 W-1-2 September 22, 2014 Revision 13
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB 1 ALERTING AND NOTIFICATION Matagorda County is serviced by the NOAA Weather Radio in Dickinson, Texas. The signal is receivable 100% of the time. The Dickinson station is part of the nationwide Weather Alert Radio Network operated by the National Weather Service. The operating frequency of the Dickinson/Matagorda County station is 162.425 Mhz.
F. Law Enforcement Teletype The Matagorda County Sheriffs Department, the Bay City Police Department and Palacios Police Department are serviced by the Texas Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (TLETS). The System is managed by the Texas Department of Public Safety and is available to law enforcement agencies in Texas. The System is a leased telephone line-based teletype system with a computerized switching and control system at the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) Headquarters in Austin.
Severe weather, national emergency, and other types of emergency notifications are available to the Matagorda County officials by TLETS. The TLETS also provides a capability for the County officials to alert and inform the State of emergency events within the county, including events at the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS).
G. Auto Dialer An autodialer automatically calls locations programmed into the computer. The autodialer continually updates their capabilities as technology advances. They operate on a 24-hour per day basis. Telephone numbers of the general public and special facilities within the 10 mile radius of the plant are programmed into the system.
The system can be activated for South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS) emergencies by Matagorda County officials with a telephone call to the autodialer, as well as activated via a computer. In addition, the Markham Industrial Group, LyondellBassel and OXEA all use an autodialer to notify the public of an emergency situation.
H. Other Industrial facilities in the Matagorda County area have a variety of alerting and notification systems which are used in conjunction with their facilities. These systems include, but are not limited to, sirens, public address systems, lights, bells, whistles, horns, word of mouth and flags. Each facility will alert their personnel with the appropriate system when notified and requested to do so by the Matagorda County EOC Communications Officer.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB 3 EVACUATION I. Purpose The purpose of this Tab to Annex W is to provide a planning basis for evacuation of the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ), approximately 10 miles radius, around the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS).
This Tab also identifies the special facilities within the Emergency.Planning Zone (EPZ) and provides for respective emergency evacuation when recommended by the County Judge (Emergency Management Director) or the designated alternate.
A. Situations There are several emergency situations that might require an evacuation of part or all of the 10 Mile Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ).
B. Assumptions It is assumed that the public will receive and understand official information related to an evacuation. Most of the public will act in their own interest and evacuate when advised to do so by local government authorities. Some individuals may, however, refuse to evacuate.
While most emergency events are slow moving, providing ample response time, the worse case assumption is that there will be little or no warning of the need to evacuate.
The decision to evacuate could occur day or night. There may be little control over the start time for evacuations.
There may not be time to obtain manpower support from outside sources.
Many evacuees may seek shelter with relatives or friends rather than use designated reception centers and congregate care facilities.
Most evacuees will use private transportation means; however, transportation may need to be provided for some evacuees.
Twenty percent of total population will report to the reception center(s) to be accounted for, monitored, and decontaminated (if necessary).
The South Texas Project Electric Generating.Station (STPEGS) onsite personnel may require assistance with evacuation transportation.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB 4 PROTECTIVE ACTION GUIDES I. Purpose This Tab to Annex W identifies the emergency protective actions and the responsibilities for implementation of the protective actions in response to an emergency at the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS).
This Tab is applicable to the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS).
A. Situations The transportation of radioactive materials and serving as the host County for the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS) Fixed Nuclear Facility makes Matagorda County susceptible to accidents involving radioactive materials.
B. Assumptions Proper development and execution of a radiological protection program will significantly reduce the number of casualties which could otherwise result from a radiological incident.
Adequate facilities will be available to collect and disseminate the necessary information.
The organized effort through warning, detection, preventions and remedial measures will reduce the effects of radiation.
Sheltering from radioactive material releases or evacuation may be required.
II. Authority This Tab is promulgated under the authorities identified in the Emergency Management Basic Plan for Matagorda County, Bay City, and Palacios, and those identified in Annex W to that Plan.
III. Concept of Operations A. State Assistance The State of Texas, Department of State Health Services (DSHS) has the responsibility for assessing the potential hazards to the public during a radiological emergency at the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS). This responsibility is identified in the State of Texas Radiological Emergency Management Plan.
ANNEX-W.T04 W-4-1 September 22, 2014 Revision 13
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB 4 PROTECTIVE ACTION GUIDES The South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS) and the State have the responsibility for recommending protective actions for the public to the local officials.
These protective actions are based upon the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Manual of Protective Action Guides (PAGs) and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents and the conditions at hand.
B. Matagorda County Actions
- 1. The County Judge (Emergency Management Director), or the designated alternate, hall receive recommendations from the State to protect the public during an emergency at the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS).
These protective actions may include, but are not limited to:
a) Evacuation b) In-place shelter c) Congregate care d) Respiratory protection (e.g., covering the mouth with a handkerchief)
- 2. The County Judge (Emergency Management Director) will determine if the recommended protective actions are appropriate to the time and situation. If the County Judge agrees with the recommended protective action, a message will be developed and transmitted to the general public over the Emergency Alert System (EAS) station(s) in Bay City. The appropriate Mayor(s) will be notified if city resources may be needed to support an evacuation. Neither of the two incorporated cities is in the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ).
The instructions to the public provided over the EAS station will inform the public what they should do to protect themselves and their families and when to take protective actions.
- 3. One of the possible recommendations is to evacuate the affected area. The people instructed to evacuate will also be instructed to report to the Reception Center in Bay City or Palacios, depending on the weather and radiological conditions.
The American Red Cross (ARC) and the Matagorda County Environmental Health Department have agreed to staff and operate the Reception Center(s). In addition, the ARC will staff and operate the Congregate Care facilities, if required. The same locations for the Reception Centers and Congregate Care facilities may be used for radiological and weather related emergencies.

B. This Tab provides guidance to the Matagorda County Officials in developing a public information program to implement the guidance in NUREG 0654, Rev. 1.
C. Situation During periods of emergency, the public needs, and generally desires, detailed information regarding protective actions to be taken for minimizing loss of life and property. There are times, however, when emergencies occur without warning and the public information system cannot respond rapidly enough to properly inform the public about the hazard. For this reason, it is important that prior to the occurrence of an emergency, the public is made aware of potential hazards and the protective measures that should be employed.
D. Assumption An effective program combining both education and emergency information will significantly reduce emergency related casualties and property damage. It is recognized, however, that people are generally unconcerned about hazards until affected, despite educational programs. Thus, special emphasis must be placed on the effectiveness of the emergency information program.
II. AUTHORITY This Tab is promulgated under the authorities identified in the Basic Plan and Annex W.
III. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. Emergency Notifications
- 1. Emergency notifications are broadcast over the National Weather Service (NWS) and local EAS radio services.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MATAGORDA COUNTY, BAY CITY, AND PALACIOS ANNEX W - TAB 7 RECEPTION. CENTERS AND CONGREGATE CARE FACILITIES
- 1. Purpose This tab to Annex W identifies the facilities as Reception Center(s) and Congregate Care Facilities, and the organization(s) which will activate and manage them.
A. Situations Facilities may be needed in Matagorda County to house evacuees.
Congregate Care Facilities may be needed for support from the affects of hazards causing evacuations due to radiological emergencies.
B. Assumptions Although local goverrnent has the overall responsibility, the American Red Cross (ARC) and the Matagorda County Environmental Health Department will manage and coordinate Reception Center Operations. In addition, the ARC will staff and operate the Congregate Care Facilities.
The American Red Cross will oversee the registration process, crisis counseling, resource management and referral services within the Center.
The County Environmental Health Department will perform radiological monitoring and decontamination activities, if required, within the Center.
Other professional/volunteer organizations which normally respond to emergency/disaster situations will do so.
Assistance from State and Federal agencies will be available.
Facilities planned for Reception Center and Congregate Care use will be available at the time of need.
Experience has shown that under localized emergency conditions, a high percentage of evacuees will seek lodging with relatives or friends rather than go to established facilities.
Essential public and private services in reception areas will be continued during a congregate care situation. Normal activities in some schools and churches may have to be curtailed or discontinued.
If the threat of an evacuation has been discussed in the media, some spontaneous evacuation will occur prior to an implementing order. Therefore, mass care operations may have to commence early in any emergency period.

Reception Centers may be opened at the Site Area Emergency classification to assist the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station with monitoring, decontamination, and/or registering of evacuated, nonessential station personnel. Reception Centers for the public are normally activated at the General Emergency classification. Preparations may begin earlier if conditions warrant.
In the event schools are unable to evacuate prior to an offsite release at STP, a Reception Center will be activated (if not already done so) and students will be transported there for monitoring and decontamination instead of being taken to their pre-designated host schools.
B. Reception Center Operation
- 1. Evacuees will be advised by the Emergency Alert System (EAS) to report to the Reception Center for registration and radiological monitoring.
- 2. Evacuee registration consists of, as a minimum:
- Name
- Residence address
- Residence telephone number
- Planned temporary residence during the evacuation
- Telephone number at the temporary residence
- Any medical or other special considerations ANNEX-W.T07 W-7-4 September 22, 2014 Revision 13
