BOROUGH OF POTTSTOWN

. RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN (RERP)

O I. INTRODUCTION A. Authority-The Borough of Pottstown Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP) has been developed under the authority of, and in accordance with, the provisions of the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Services Act of 1978,.P.L. 1332.

8. Rcferences
1. U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Federal Emergency Management Agency " Criteria'for preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in support of Nuclear Power Plants," NUREG-06S4, FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1 November 1980.
2. Montgomery County Radiological Emergency Response Plan for Inci-dents at the Limerick Generating Station, dated .
3. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Disaster Operations Plan, July 1977, with changes.
4. Annex E. " Fixed Nuclear Facility Incidents," dated November O- 1981, to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Disaster Operations Plan.
5. Municipal Resolution No. .

C. Purpose The intent of this document is to provide for the maximum protection of those persons who live, work, or transit Borough of Pottstown in the event of'an incident at the Limerick Generating Station, which is owned and operated by the Philadelphia Electric Company.

D. Scope This plan outlines the basic procedures Borough of Pottstown will follow in the event of an incident at Limerick Generating Station, which may endanger the residents of Pottstown. It complies with federal guidelines and details municipal actions in accordance witn Annex E of the Conunonwealth of Pennsylvania disaster Operations Plan and the Montgomery County Radiological Emergency Response Plan.

All of Pottstown Borough is witin the pliane exposure pathway EP4 (reference Attachment A and Attachment J. .Tne approximate population is 22,729.

j , E. Definitiens Some of the. terminology presented in this document, or wnich one might encounter during a radiological incident, is somewhat unique.  ;

2-s' Accordingly, for a better understanding of the RERP it is essential i

that emergency response personnel familiarize themselves with the  !

following definitions: i J- 1. Access Control Point (ACP) - Control Points manned primarily by State or municipal po ice, augmented when necessary by the National Guard, established around the perimeter of the plume

exposure pathway EPZ on roads leading into it when it is ,

! evacuated or occupants are taking shelter for the purpose of

controlling access into the area.
2. Activate / Activation - To place a specific plan, or portion thereof, into action.

) 3. Amateur Radio - Licensed volunteer radio amateur communications

' personnel affiliated with county emergency management organi-zation. Such organizations include Amateur Radio Emergency ,

i Service (ARES) and Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Services j (RACES).

l' j 4. Central Resource Receivin. Point - A predesignated facilitys operated by tne county anc located outside the plume exposure

{j pathway EPZ and suitable for the reception and distribution of i

. supplies and equipment. -

5. Dosimeters - Devices that measure accumulated exposure to
radiation. r
6. Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) Announcements - Of ficial

]

announcements made at the county level for tne specific purpose of providing instructions or information from tne County Commis- ,

sioners, or their designated representative, to the permanent i and transient residents of the county. Announcements are made ,

j over the legally designated alerting and warning (EBS) Network.

7. Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ? - A generic area defined about  ;

(surrounding) a nuclear facility to facilitate offsite emergency '

l- planning and develop a significant response base. It is defined j for the plume and ingestion exposure pathways.

a. Plume Exposure Pathway - The area surrounding a fixed nuclear facility which potentially is subject to radiation l exposure as a result of an incident involving radioactive i

! material emanating from the facility.- Such potential *

! exposure could involve: (a) whole body external exposure to

! gamma radiation from the plume and from deposited materials, i and (b) inhalation exposure from the passing radioactive

! plume. The EPZ for this pathway consists of an area of I approximately ten miles in radius around the fixed nuclear j facility at Limerick. (The exact size and configuration of i s t

, cach plume cxp:: sura pathway EPZ fcr th2 r:spectiva fixed nuclear facility in Pennsylvania was determined in relation to local emergency response needs and capabilities as they are affected by conditions such as demograpny, topography, o) access routes, and jurisdictional boundaries).

b. Ingestion Exposure Pathway,- That area surrounding a fixed nuclear facility which, as a result of a release of radioactive material, is a potential source of exposure through the ingestion of water and foods, such as milk or fresh vegetables originating there. This EPZ consists of a circular area of 50 miles radius around tne fixed nuclear facility.
8. Fixed Nuclear Facility Incident - An event or condition at a nuclear facility which could result in impact on public health and safety. Four incident classes have been developed to facilitate planning and responses:
a. Unusual Event - An occurrence which indicates a potential degradation of the level of safety of the facility. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further oegradation of safety systems occurs.
b. Alert - An occurrence which involves actual or potential suostantial degradation of the level of safety of the facility. Any releases are expected to be limited to small g fractions of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) y; protective action guideline exposure levels.
c. Site Emergency - An occurrence which involves actual or likely major failures of facility functions needed for the protection of the public. Radioactive releases are not expected to exceed the EPA protective action guideline exposure levels except near the site boundary.
d. General Emergency - An occurrence which involves actual or imminent suostantial core degradation or melting with tne potential for loss of containment integrity. Releases can reasonably be expected to exceed EPA protective action guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.

NOTE: The incident classifications of Site and General Emergency should not be confused with a gubernatorial declaration of " State of Disaster Emergency." See definition below.

9. Mass Care Center - Fixed facilities suitable for providing emergency lodging for temporarily homeless victims of a disaster and capable of providing all essential social services. Feeding may be done within a Mass Care Center (in suitable dining p f acilities) or nearby.

V 3 Oraft 6

15. Protective Action - An action taken to avoid or reduce a projected dose of radiation. Some of the basic actions are:

l

a. Sheltering - Action taken by the public to take advantage of '

, the protection against radiation exposure afforded by i

remaining indoors, away from doors and windows, and shutting

!' off all sources of outside air during and following the passage of the radioactive plume. Motorists snould close a

all windows and vents and turn off air conditioning.

I

b. General Evacuation - The relocation of the entire population from tne plume exposure pathway EPZ. -
c. Selective Evacuation - The relocation of specific elements of the population, such as pregnant women, pre-school i

children or the infirm.

j 16. Protective Action Guide (PAG) - A pre-established projected

,i radiation dose to individuals which warrants protective action.

{

Office of Emergency Management and is programmed with the telephone numbers and message (s) of the key individuals,

' Institutions and special facilities wnich require notification -

during the implementation of the RERP.

2 The system is activated by the county and it sequentially and i simultaneously contacts tne parties by telephone, provides a pre-recorded message and awaits an acknowledgement code. The system then 'provides a management report to indicate the calls which have been made, the status (no answer, answer, busy, etc.)

and other information. If the called party does not furnish the

! acknowledgement code, the system will continue to call the party-i until the code is received or another parameter is reached.

Busy lines will De re-tried and alternate numbers are used for i

after hours or in the event a contact cannot ne made at the

. primary number due to busy, no-answer, or failure to acknowledge.

17 Oraft 6

,v-. -r ~ - - n~ n,-, -- .. . ,e , m. >ew.- e -- 0 m-w e,, e. , yr,.w-.

  • onn (1) th:rmolumin: scent dosimeter (TLD) which is a machine-read crystalline dosimeter mounted in a card.
  • one (1) Oosimetry-KI Report Form (reference Attachment K).

pb

  • one (1) bottle containing a fourteen day supply of potassium iodide (KI) tablets,
b. PEMA will supply, when available, the Montgomery County OEP with enough dosimeters and XI for designated emergency workers within its portion of the plume exposure pathway EPZ. These resources will be predistributed to the Borough, Attachment M lists emergency worker dosimeters-KI resource requirements.
c. Distribution of the dosimeters and XI is as follows:

(1) Upon notification of an Alert (or any higher classifi-cation of emergency should it be initial notification),the equipment will be prepared for distribution to municipal emergency workers (reference Attachment L).

(2) Upon notification of a Site Emergency, dosimeters and KI will De distributed to municipal emergency response organizations identified in Attachment M. A signed receipt snall be obtained from each organization (reference Attachment L). Emergency organizations will

_]

/

(,/

maintain property control by having each worker sign for the property (reference Attachment N).

(3) Emergency workers will take KI only upon the direction -

of the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health, notification of which will be received tnrough emergency management channels.

d. Dosimeters Reading Procedures and Related Actions (1) Oosimeters are to be worn in the pocket of an outer garment from the time of issue until the worker is dismissed from duty. In no case should the TLO be worn by more than one person since there is no way of ascertaining later now much of tne dose recorded on tne TLD was received by each individual if more than one person was involved.

(2) Each emergency worker is responsible for completing the Oosimetry/KI Report Form (reference Attachment K) and i

for reading the self-reading dosimeters at least once l every thirty minutes. The protective action guide for whole body exposure is 25 rem. Therefore an emergency wolker should seek to be relieved or complete the assigned task and then evacuate to an emergency worker decontamination station before receiving 25 N.

18 Oraft 6 L _ _ _ _ __ _ , -- - - - - -- -

(3) Life Saving Missions - If a life saving mission snould become necessary, the Pottstown Borough elected official in charge may, under conditions snown below,

(')

(~ authorize volunteer emergency workers to exceed the established 25 rem whole body limit. In no instance, however, should the emergency worker be authorized to exceed an absolute upper limit of 75 rems. This authorization may be given in advance to avoid the possibility of delay in performing life saving missions.

(h

/'

~

(e) The emergency workers are knowledgeable of and accept the increased risk in exceeding the 25 rem

limit.
e. Upon completion of emergency tasks during a contaminating incident, each emergency worker is to report to a decon-tamination station. Emergency workers in tne Borougn of Pottstown are to report to Daniel Boone Senior High Scnool, Birdsboro, PA.* Specifics relevant to monitoring and decontamination are contained in Annex M of the County RERP.
f. When the emergency is terminated, all dosimeters-KI should be returned to the Municipal EOC for forwarding to the County.
