APPENDIX F Telephone Survey
F. TELEPHONE SURVEY F.1 INTRODUCTION The development of evacuation time estimates for the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) of the VCSNS Site 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 telephone 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. A sample size of approximately 550 completed survey forms yields results with a sampling error of +/-4% at the 95% confidence level. The sample must 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 F-1. 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 F-1.
Due to the sparse population of the zip codes within the EPZ, the area which was sampled was expanded (within the zip codes identified) so that an appropriate sample could be gathered.
The over-sampling was computed in proportion to the entire zip code population. The approach is justified on the basis that the area outside of the EPZ has similar land-use and housing characteristics as does the EPZ. The completed survey adhered to the over-sampling plan.
The completed survey adhered to the sampling plan.

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 "don't know" (DK) or "refused" entry for a response. It is accepted practice in conducting surveys of this type to accept the answers of a respondent who offers a DK response for a few questions or who refuses to answer a few questions. To address the issue of occasional DK/refused 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 DK/refused responses are ignored and the distributions are based upon the positive data that is acquired.

F.3.1 Household Demographic Results Household Size Figure F-1 presents the distribution of household size within the EPZ. The average household contains 2.68 people. The estimated household size (2.68 persons) used to determine the survey sample (Table F-i) was drawn from Census data. The agreement between the average household size obtained from the survey and from the Census is an indication of the reliability of the survey.

Automobile Ownership The average number of automobiles available per household in the EPZ is 2.22. It should be noted that approximately 4.76 percent of households do not have access to an automobile. The distribution of automobile ownership is presented in Figure F-2. Figure F-3 and Figure F-4 present the automobile availability by household size. Note that the majority of households without access to a car are single person households. As expected, nearly all households of 2 or more people have access to at least one vehicle.

"How many of the vehicles would your household use during an evacuation?"The response is shown in Figure F-7. On average, evacuating households would use 1.49 vehicles.
"Would yourfamily await the return of other family members prior to evacuating the area?"
Of the survey participants who responded, 78 percent said they would await the return of other family members before evacuating and 22 percent indicated that they would not await the return of other family members.

Number of Vehicles Figure F-7. Number of Vehicles Used for Evacuation 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 day-to-day lives. Thus, the answers fall within the realm of the responder's 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.
"How long does it take the commuter to complete preparationfor leaving work?" Figure F-8 presents the cumulative distribution; in all cases, the activity is completed by about 90 minutes.
Seventy-five percent can leave within 30 minutes.

"How long would it take the family to pack clothing, secure the house, and load the car?"
Figure F-10 presents the time required to prepare for leaving on an evacuation trip. In many ways this activity mimics a family's 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 F-10 has a long "tail." About 60 percent of households can be ready to leave home within 30 minutes; the remaining households require up to an additional one hour and forty five minutes.

APPENDIX G Traffic Management Plan
G. TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN NUREG/CR-7002 indicates that the existing TCPs and ACPs identified by the offsite agencies should be used in the evacuation simulation modeling. The traffic and access control plans for the EPZ are discussed in the following documents:
" Fairfield County Emergency Operations Plan, Annex E, Appendix 7, Page E-15
" Lexington County Emergency Operations Plan, Annex 25a, Appendix 4, Page 25a-27
" Newberry County Emergency Operations Plan, Annex Q, Appendix 3, Page Q-57
" Richland County Emergency Operations Plan, Annex 25C, Appendix 3, Page 58
- South Carolina Operational Radiological Emergency Response, Part 3 Table to Figure 1, Page 3-12 These plans were reviewed and the TCPs and ACPs were modeled accordingly. Figure G-1 is a map of the existing traffic control points.
G.1 Traffic Control Points As discussed in Section 9, traffic control points at intersections (which are controlled) are modeled as actuated signals. If an intersection has a pre-timed signal, stop, or yield control, and the intersection is identified as a traffic control point, the control type was changed to an actuated signal in the DYNEV II system. Table K-2 provides the control type and node number for those nodes which are controlled. If the existing control was changed due to the point being a TCP, the control type is indicated as "Traffic Control Point" in Table K-2.
As discussed in Section 7.3, there is limited traffic congestion within the EPZ. As such, no additional traffic control points are recommended.
G.2 Access Control Points 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 advisory to evacuate (ATE) to discourage through travelers from using major through routes which traverse the EPZ. There are no ACPs identified in the existing emergency plans for Lexington and Fairfield Counties.
Newberry and Richland County emergency plans state that entrance barricades will be placed at all routes of ingress other than at TCPs, and entrance into the area will be strictly enforced by local law enforcement.
As discussed in Section 3.6, external traffic is considered on Interstate-26, US-76, and US-176, which enter the EPZ in Newberry and Richland Counties, and on US-321 in the Shadow Region in Fairfield County. The access control procedure discussed above for Newberry and Richland Counties will stop the flow of traffic into 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, while the TCPs along US-321 in Fairfield County (See Figure G-1) can be used to stop the flow of traffic through the area in Fairfield County. As such, no additional ACPs are recommended.
Traffic and access control points should be periodically reviewed by state and county emergency planners with local and state police agencies.

APPENDIX J Representative Inputs 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 J-1 provides the volume and queues for the ten highest volume signalized intersections in the study area.
Refer to Table K-2 and the figures in Appendix K for a map showing the geographic location of each intersection.
Table J-2 provides source (vehicle loading) and destination information for five roadway segments (link) in the analysis network. Refer to Table K-1 and the figures in Appendix K for a map showing the geographic location of each link.
Table J-3 provides network-wide statistics (average travel time, average speed and number of vehicles) for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) for each scenario. As expected, Scenarios 8 and 11, which are ice scenarios, exhibit the slowest average speed and longest average travel times.
Table J-4 provides statistics (average speed and travel time) for the major evacuation routes (US 76, US 176, 1-26) for an evacuation of the entire EPZ (Region R03) under Scenario 1 conditions.
As discussed in Section 7.3 and shown in Figures 7-3 and 7-4, there is no material congestion within the EPZ. Consequently, the speeds shown in this table reflect free-flow speeds.
Table J-5 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. Refer to Table K-1 and the figures in Appendix K for a map showing the geographic location of each link.
Figures J-1 through J-14 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 Figures J-1 through J-14, the curves are closely aligned since there is no traffic congestion in the EPZ, which was discussed in detail in Section 7.3.
