AFFIDAVIT OF RICHARD H. STROME (NECNP NHLP-6) l I, Richard H. Strome, being on oath, deposes and says as I follows:

1. I am the Director of the New Hampshire Civil Defense I

1 Agency (NHCDA). ,

2. The August 1986 RAC Evaluation of State Response (pg. 73 of 134, Item 3), states that the. concept of pre-designated bus routes is adequate.
3. Volume 4, Appendix G (Emergency Broadcast System Activation), contains EBS Sample Messages in Attachment 2..

Messages "F" (General Emergency - Sheltering and Evacuation) and "G" (General Emergency - Evacuation), both contain a l

provision for notifying the transit dependent what time buses will begin traveling the pre-established bus routes.

(pg. G-32 and G-37/38, respectively).

4. While " latchkey children" are not specifically addressed, or singled out in a particular transportation dependent group, they are accounted for in establishment of access control to the Plume Exposure EPZ. Volume 1, Section 2.6 (Protective Response) states the following on page 2.6-16.

Before and during an evacuation, nonessential population is denied entry to the controlled area. At this time only the following personnel will be allowed entry:

Residents with appropriate identification (e.g.,

drivers licenses) returning to their homes to prepare to evacuate.

This provision will allow for parents to return home in order to pick up their children who may have arrived home as a result of normal (or early) school dismissal.

. 5. Special arrangements have been planned for the transport of students when school is in session.

Arrangements are described in Volume 1 (NHRERP Parts 1.0 through 7.0), Section 2.6 (pgs. 2.6-11 through 2.6-11b).

Transportation is a coordinated effort between the State of New Hampshire and each town. For example, Volume 31 (Town of South Hampton RERP) provides for school children in the following sections:

VOLUME 31, TOWN OF SOUTH HAMPTON RERP

'I

a. Section II.G -

Evacuation of Schools '

b. Section III.C.3 - Transportation (Reference Section II.G)
c. Appendix F -

Special Facilities Plans -

Barnard School

6. Arrangements for transportation are also described in the following references, with emphasis on the role of the State of New Hampshire:
a. Volume 1, Section 1.2 - Pupil Transportation Safety Supervisor
b. Volume 1, Section 2.6 - Protective Response (Evacuation, etc.)
c. Volume 4, Section 7 -

EOC Resource Coordinator Procedure

d. Volume 4B, -

Director of Pupil Transportation Safety

e. Volume 5 -

Letter of Agreement (Index and selected LOAs)

7. Revision 2 of the NHRERP, Volume 2 (Appendices),

contains in Appendix I (pg. I-3'), a summary of transportation resource requirements for all 17 New a Hampshire towns and any special facilities or institutions.

These numbers are being updated to reflect current requirements. Presently a total of 515 buses are required, including all school buses, special needs buses _and coach buses;.approximately 36 ambulances are required.

8. Volume 5 of the NHRERP contains letters of agreement with bus and ambulance companies, Teamsters Local No. 633 of New Hampshire, and the New Hampshire School Transportation Association. Together, these organizations should be able to provide transportation resources in excess of the numbers required in Appendix I to Volume 2.

9. Volumes 16 through 32 of the NHRERP comprise all of the 17 New Hampshire Town RERPs. In Section IV of each plan, an attachment to the procedure for the Transportation Coordinator (or equivalent responsible individual) provides the individual town transportation requirements. Included in each list is a category entitled "Public Schools" and/or

" Private, Day Care Schools", which identifies the number of students within this category and the number of buses / vans that have been allocated to meet their needs. These requirements are based on an annual determination of student enrollment.

10. In each case, the capacity of buses allotted surpases the number of students that may require transportation assistance. The totality of bus / van resources, on which the plans rely, is confirmed by letters of agreement contained in Volume 5 of the NHRERP.
11. It is my opinion that the local plans, in conjunction with the NHRERP, provides reasonable assurance that adequate arrangements exist for transportation of students of the Plume Exposure EPZ.
