Dear Sirs:
1 I am writing this letter for inclusion into the record of the request of the Baltimore Gas & Electric Company' to have the radius of the emergency planning zone for the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant reduced from ten miles to two.
- My wife and I, together with my parents, Capt and Mrs. 0.T.
- Knight (USN, Ret.) own a weekend home at Box 220K White Sands Dr.,
Lusby, Md. 20657. Our home is four houses in from St. Leaonard Creek.
We have no real problem with the request of Baltimore G&E in this matter, and we understand that the Commission has deferred further consideration of this request pending the completion of *-
various technical studies.
However, we would like to' interject into the proceedings a practical consideration, as opposed to a legal one. Should the NRC grant Baltimore G&E's request literally (i.e., an EPZ of exactly two miles in circumference from the plant) our home, and perhaps a dozen or two others lying immediately outside the two mile arc.would not have to be notified of any nuclear incident at the pl, ant.
" This is disturbing in that the only escape route, by land, ,
from the White Sands area is toward the plant (from outside the EPZ to a point far inside the.EPZ to intersect with Maryland Rt. 4).
While BG&E may argue that if the scientific data are sufficient to convince the NRC to reduce the EPZ from 10 miles to 2 miles, then White Sands residents just outside the new 2 mile EPZ should not concern themselves.
However, given the variable of wind and weather and the imprecise nature of trying to predict the adjacent impacts of an unknown event, we residents of White Sands would prefer not to rely upon arbitrary, uniform EPZ circles.
Accordingly, we would support the BG&E request only if the Commission requires BG&E to notify those " landlocked" residents of White Sands situated outside the two-mile EPZ as if we were inside the uniform circle. In this manner, we could make our own decision about whether to not worry #
and stay put -- or to evacuate until all doubt has passed.

E. Emercency Plannino Consideration Derived ft~1.
TheReacterSaketvStudy OfASH la001 The Reactor Safety Study (RSS) attempts to provide a detailed quanti,tative assessment of the probability and consequences of.
" Class 9" accidents. The study conc'uded that the public risk from nuclear reactor accidents was dominated by accidents in which there was substantial damage to the reactor core and 1 that the p'robabilities of such accidents were very small.*
Since emergency planners are encouraged to develop response' plan; '
which will be flexible enough to respond to most accident ,
situations, some understanding of " Class 9" accidents and the relationships between them and emergency pl'anning is needed.
The Reactor Safety Study developed the mathematical techniques and data base to provide an understanding of these relationships.
To obtain an appreciation for the distances to which or areas within which emergency planning might be required, a perspective on the relative probabilities of certain critical doses as a function of distance frem the power plant for these accidents
- Probability of a " core-melt" accident was estimated to be approxi-mately 1 in 20,000 ($ x 10-5) car reactor year. There is a large uncertaintv on tnis numcer.
e
1.. .
, , I-37 is needed. 'A set of such curves has been prepared for cli of the RS5 accident release categories (figure I-11). These
, curye's include both Pressurized and Goiling Water Reactor ( A4R
& SWR) accidents. Ooses are given for the critical values for which emergency planners should be concerned. One and five rem whole body doses correspon1 to the lower range of the PAGs; 50 rem whole body corresponds to the dosage at which early illnesses start to occur; and 200 rem whole body is the dose at which significant early injuries start to occur. As can be seen from figure I-11, core melt accidents can be severe, but the orobab'ility of large doses drops off substanti-ally at about 10 miles from the reactor. Similar conclusions can be reached by evaluating the otrer critical organs of lung and thyroid shown in figures I-12 and I-13, respectively.
For the lung, the doses of 5, 25, 3C0 and 3000 rem were plotted
.as a function of distance and probability of occurence. For the thyroid, the reference doses of 5, 25, 300 rem, which correspond to the Icwer and upper PAG 1evels, and the guide-line exposure used for siting purposes are presented.
Given a core melt accident, there is about a 707. chance of exceeding the PAG doses at 2 miles, a 40% chance at 5 miles.
and a 305 chance at 10 miles frem a power plant. That is, t
the probability of exceeding PAG doses at 10 miles is 1.5 x 10-5 e

Based'in part upon the above informatian the Task Forco judged
~
that a 10 mile plume EPI would be aonropriate to deal with core m.elt accidents.
Potential ingestion doses to the thyroid (through the cow / milk
, pathway) from ccre melt accidents are afven in ' figure I-14 The distance for which emergency plann.r.g is needed is not easily ,
determined from the information given in the figure. It is 3
evident that deses can potentially be cuite high out to ,
considerable distances.
The current PAG for milk ingestion is 30 rem thyroid to an individual and 10 rem thyroid to a suitable sample of the population (usually calculated on the basis of an infant's thyroid). Given a core melt accident, there is a near 100% chance of exceeding the 10 rem thyroid PAG frem milk ingestion at I mile. about an 80% chance at 10 miles and a 40%
chance at 25 miles frcm a power plant. A planning basis for milk ingestion on the order of 25 miles would therefore approximately correspond to the 10 mile plume exposure distance
- There is a large uncertt inty on this number.

SELECTION OF METHODOLOGY FOR CCNPP-V SEQUENCE ANALYSIS o NRC Methodology Does Not Include Revaporization After Vessel'Heltthrough In-vessel o Use MAAP to calculate:
Release o MAAP Reasonably - Event Timing Approximates NRC - RCS Thermal Hydraulics
.In-vessel Methodology & - Mass & Energy Release Includes Revaporization i
o NRC Methodology predicts o- Use NUREG-0956 data for i higher release from ex-vessel release adjusted Ex-vessel for auxiliary building retention Release core / concrete interaction observed in CCNPP analysis.
than MAAP. .
. I o Neither NRC Methodology o Use Stone & Webster THREED-ST nor MAAP includes free code for Thermal Hydraulics in convective flow in Aux. Bldg. Aux. Bldg. - Incl. Free Convectic; Retention & effects of H2 burns.
In Aux. Bldg.
o NRC-NAUA and MAAP i aerosol models differ o Use NAUA for Aerosol Behavior in Aux. Bldg. with modification to treat spray removal.
