1 This volume contains a technical discussion and evacuation times assessment for Limerick Nuclear Power Plant. The evalu-ation of four scenaries and the discussion of evacuation of l

l

4  ?;

t special problem areas are included. The scenarios evaluated are those expected when evacuation takes place at night (the optimum time from the standpoint of evacuation time), during i a normal workday, during bad weather (the worst case condition),

and, where applicable, the evacuation with summertime resident and transient population.

Evacuation Time Assessment versus Evaccation Plan The assessment employs available demographic data and- trans-4 portation facility information to predict the public response time to an evacuation warning on the assumption that such a warn-ing is made within 15 minutes of an en-site nuciear incident warranting such emergency action.

The assessment must provide for estimates of public response j time to these warnings , assembly of family and other groups ,

preparation for departure, travel time en the network including consideration of capacity limitations en the network possibly forming cueues which add to delays , and clearance of the 10-mile radius around the site . It must consider the evacuation of special prcblem areas and groups. These would. include schools, nurseries ,

nursing and retirement homt s, hospitals, penal facilities , beaches and recreational areas, and other activities which may provide periodic or seasonal concentrations of people. Population groups without access to their own transportation or unable to provide

]

the special transportation facilities required for evacuation must be included in the evacuation time assessment.  ;

i Evacuation time assessment methodology combines selected techniques of traffic management anc planning, land use planning and cperational analysis. Because some conditions prevailing

during an evacuation are not well documented, modifications to l

some established principles may be required to meet evacuation requirements . Assumptiens may be required in lieu of well formu-lated relationships because of the highly specialized problems being addressed. These assumptions must be founded on best pro-fessional judgement and/or extrapolation from existing knowledge.

The assumptiens must be specifically identified. The bases upon j which the assumptions are founded shculd be appropriately dis- I cussed. l Evacuation time assessments contain basic methodolcgy commen to evacuatien plan development. Ecwever, the assessment is not

, an evacuatior plan. The major distinction between the assessment and a plan is the extent to which the elements have been coordi-nated with all pc ticipant agencies and jurisdictions. For example, the assessment may assume that a specific traffic management element is established to cptimize traffic operations at a specific location alcng an evacuation network. The feasi-bility of such an eierent in the assessment would be based upon established technical principles. Ecwever, the element would not be coordinated with specific law enforcement agencies to establish what agency would exercise the element control and managerent ner identify the type and number of personnel to be required. The study tim allcuted makes such coordination im-possible. ne assessment must identify what is required for the evacuatien time to be realized, and assume that such an element would be implemented.

General Assumptions In the assessment of evacuation times, certain general assumptions were mandatory. More impcrtant of these are summa-rized as folicws:

1. Emergency evacuatien of the general public from the EPZ will be perfor:ned largely frem the hcme by the family as a united 3

% *. l l

i i

group. This assumption is prefaced by the folicwing quote:III

". . . people will not _ evacuate an area, regardless of the danger, if their family group is separated, unless they knew that members of their f amily are safe , accounted for, and that arrangerants have been made for them to evacuate." It was felt that this psychological pressure is so prevalent and streng that the above assumption appears to be justified. In addition , to assure that segments of the family are safe and accounted for would have required the establishment of shel ter locations and the develep-ment of a shelter support plan. In view of the next assumption and due to the short time period of the study, this was not done.

2. Public use of shelters in previous mass evacuation exper-ience related to natural disasters appears to be a very small percentage of total evacuees. Examples cited in literature include : (2) "In a California flood, only 9,260 out of 50,000 persens evac.1,ated registered in the 38 Red Cross shelters; during Hurricane Carla, 75 percent of the evacuees went to other than public shelters; and during Hurricane Betsy, only 20 percent requested assistance. Generally, shelter centers are used only if nothing else is available er if cne cannot financially care for himself." In this evacuation tire assessment study, it was assumed that the predominant traffic, af ter leaving the '0-mile EP , went diverse routes rather than to a shelter destination.

Therefore, the evacuaticn time assessment ended at the EPZ bcundary. An analysis of route capacities and service levels of highway facilities beycnd that beundary was made to assure that delays or problems were unlikely to occur.

3. Experience gained in a large range of evacuations indi-cates that private vehicles (3) "

. . . were the predominant mode for evacuation (more than 99 percent) . Population density ranged frem approximately 15 persens per square mile to 20,000 persens per square mile. " It was assumed that this was applicable to this time assessment study. It was further assumed that persens without private vehicle . transportation would be provided, at their telephone request, adequate transportation in high occu-pancy vehicles (HOV's). The additional vehicle volumes on the network would therefore be small, could be affected during the general public evacuation time, and would not affect the computed evacuation times of the general population.

4. It has been cbserved that not all persens will evacuate the EP Z . "In many cases , even when presented with a grave threat, pecple  ;:sfuse to evacuate . "I4) This source continues , "Results of this ctudy indicate that approximately six pert.ent of the total pcpulation refused to evacuate. Other reports indicate this figure can run as high as 50 percent. There is no reascn to believe that because the disaster agent is radiation rather than some other agent . . . will provide sufficient motivatien to leave. Rather the cpposite viewpcint should be t aken--pe cp le will hesitate to leave."I3) It is believed that a majority of this hesitance is based on fear of ' exposing their prcperty to 1coting and vandalism. Notwithstanding this evidence , this time assessment study assumed that all persens evacuate.
5. It has been assumed that the traffic network within the EPZ has been isolated so that no through traffic is permitted to enter it within 15 minutes af ter the evacuation warning has been issued.

6. Traffic management by appropriate law enforcement efficers will be performed at selected intersection where evacuation traffic flow is given priority.
7. All persons in the EPZ have been provided, in advance,-

sufficient information regarding the assigned evacuation route frem their place of residence (referred to as the " centroid" in the report) .

8. It was ' assumed that the public response to an evacuation order can be defined as a ccabination of up to four categories of statistically distributed responses: receive warninc leave work, travel home, and evacuate home. It was assumed that these responses are time-distributed following a normal distribution curve. The details and applications of this assumption are more fully discussed later in this report.

Additional assumptions were made which are summarized at the back of the report under this heading.

Description of Site Location - The site of the Limerick nuclear generating station is in Limerick Township of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, on the northeast bank of the Schuylkill River approximately four miles downriver frem Pottstown, 35 river miles upriver from  ;

, i Philadelphia, and 49 river miles above the confluence of the i Schuylkill with the Delaware River. l The site is situated in the rolling countryside of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The area included within a 10-mile radius l 4 of the station includes parts of three Pennsylvania counties - l Montgomery, Chester, and Berks.

6

In 19 8 5,- ic is estimated that there will be 171,876 people residing within 10-miles.of the site. Montgomery County will have 102,510 people (60 percent) , Chester County 49,701 people (29 percent) , and Berks County 19,665 peop.e (11 percent) .

Licensee - The licensee for Limerick is the Philadelphia Electric Ccmpany. The General Electric Company is responsible for the nuclear steam supply system (NS3S) and is designing and supplying the reactors, the reactor fuel, and the associated turbine- generater system with the Chicago Bridge and Iron Company supplying the reactor vessels. All other systems of the station are being designed, procured, and constructed by the Bechtel Corporation which is the architect / engineer / constructor for the project.

Type of ' Plant - The 7arick Generating Station will produce electrical power using two turbine-generator units, each driven by steam produced by its cwn boiling water nuclear reactor (BWR).

Each unit will have a rated thermal power level from its associated l 4 NSSS of 3293 MWT. The net station output frem each of the genera-tors will be 1055 MWE. The date of initial criticality for unit one is scheduled for January, 1985 with the date for commercial operation being scheduled for April, 1985. The scheduled dates fer initial criticality and commercial cperation for unit two are January, 1987 and April 1987, respectively.

I Emergency Planninc Area The area within a 10-mile radius surrounding a nuclear plant is reccmmended for the delineation of the emergency planning l

ene (EPZ). The area within the.10-mile radius around the Limerick generating plant enecmpasses all or part of 34 tcwnships and 9 boroughs in three counties.

The EPZ is defined as the area enclosed by a circle of 10-mile radius. Fcr purposes of confirmation of evacuation of the EPZ, boundaries were delineated to just outside the perimeter of the 10-mile circle to coincide with readily identifiable land-marks such as rivers, political jurisdictional boundaries, road-ways, and other easily identified topographical features. Although the roadway network developed for evacuation purposes stops at the 10-mile circle, the peripheral boundaries will assist the agencies implementing the evacuatien plans and the people affectea by evacuation to identify the cuter boundaries of the planning area. Figure 1 presents a map of the Emergency Planning Area arcund Limerick and shows the 10-mile radius circle which de,icts c the EPZ for the plant.

The following description of the amergency planning area starts at the junction of the Montgomery and Chester county lines in the Schuylkill River and goes counter-clockwise around the perimeter of the EPZ. The Emergency Planning area boundary in Montgemery County generally follows the Schuylkill River, LR 46065, LR 46064, SR 363, US 422, T 386, T 340, T 397, Shippack Creek, T 364, SR 113, T 367, T '31, SR 63, SR 29, LR-46013, T 477, T 380, New Hanover Co. , Line, and LR 46012 to the Berks county line.

In addition to the-34 tcwnships that the EPZ affects, there are part of two additional townships in the Montgomery County emergency planning area that is not within the EPZ. 'These are Towamencin and Worester Townships, d

In Berks County the boundary generally follows LR 06033, T 841, LR 06026, LR 06098, T 652, Celebreckdale County Line, SR 73, T 626, LR 06034, SR 562, SR 662, LR 06108, T 464, T 443, I

! General Regional Characteristics j

The Limerick site is in the Triassic lowland sections of f the Piedmont Physiegraphic Province, which is part of the l

(

Appalachian Highiands. Although Montgcmery County is the third rest populcus in the state, there is a fairly high level of agricultural activity, principally dairying. In 1971, Chester and Berks were ranked in the top ten counties of Pennsylvania in the prcduction of corn, cats, hay, potatoes, apples, peaches, poultry and milk.

There are several manufacturing plans located within the 10-mile circle along the Schuylkill River. Boyertown, Trappe, and Collegeville, also have small =anufacturing facilities.

There are several employers within the EPZ which employ over 1,000 people. West Cemagny in Phcenixville employs 3,200 people.

Mrs. Smith Pie Ccmpany in Pottstown, employs 2,400 and Teleflex Inc., in Royersford has over 1,400 employees.

Pocularion Distribution - Within the 10-mile radius of the j Limerick plant there are 34 townships and 9 boroughs. The nearest j populations center within the 10-mile circle is Pottstevn in Montgcmery County with a 1985 projected pcpulation of 27,720, 9

l

  • . o.

t six smaller ecmmunities within the 10-mile circle with 1985 pro-jected pcpulatiens of 2,0)0 to 15,000 include Phoenixville, l Trappe, Collegeville, Spring City, Soyertown, and Roversford.

The largest populated township is Upper Providence in Montgomery County which will have close to 10,000 people in 1985. Other tewnships with a 1985 projected population of over 5,000 include Douglass, Limerick, Lcwcr Pottsgrove, Lcwer Providence and Shippack in Montgcmery County, North Coventry Township in Chester County and Amity Township in Berks' County.

Mac - Plan 3ine Zones - As mentioned previously, Figure 1 presents a =ap of the planning area arcund the Limerick Nuclear

+

Plant with the station being at the center of the map. The EPZ 1, is shown as a circle with a 10-mile radius and the E=ergency

Planning Area bcundary is depicted around the perimeter of the i circle. The map shows the Schuylkill River running in a NW-SE direction through the EPZ with county, tcwnship, and borough bcundaries identified as such.

Major Transportation Facilities - There are several highways within relatively short distance frem the site. US 422 is 1-1/2 miles north and runs in a NW-SE directicn. PA 100 is 4 miles west through Pottstown and runs N-S.

PA 724 is 1-1/4 mile west 1

accross the Schuylkill river and runs in a NW-SE direction. An extension of the Schuylkill Expressway (NW-SE) is presently q under construction and is being routed within 4 miles of the eastern boundary of the site.

1 4

other highways within the 10-mile radius include PA 23 which is 4 miles south acrcss the river and runs W-E. PA 73 is 6-1/2 miles north and runs NW-SE. PA 29 is 7-1/2 miles east and runs N-S while PA 663 is 3 miles west and runs NE fren Pottstown.

f i

The are is also served by Conrail Railroad which has track within one mile of the site along the Schuylkill River. The Pottstown airport is a general aviation airport located about 5-1/4 miles north-west of the station, but at present it accomme-

, dates no scheduled commercial'or commuter flights.

Support Organizations l In cases of an emergency at the facility, close coordination between federal, state, and local agencies is imperative to provide

the responsibility necessary to ensure implementation of an i evacuation plan. Philadelphia Electric Company will have cate-a 2

gories of incidents defined including criteria. for determining when protective measures should be considered and for notification of off-site support groups. Agreement, liaison, and communications 3 will be established with appropriate agencies that have responsi-bilicies for coping with emergencies.  !

Support agencies expected to. coordinate activities in the Limerick area are:

1. Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA)
2. Montgomery County Office of Emergency Preparedness l 3. Chester County Office of Emergency Preparedness Service r 4. Berks County Office of Emergency Preparedness Service
5. Nuclear Regulation Commission (NRC)
6. Bureau of Radiation Protection

$ 7. National Guard

8. Pennsylvania State Police
9. Local Municipalities, such as, police, fire, and others necessary to implement an evacuation plan.

Summary of Emergency Planning to Cate Licensee Evacuation Pla3 - As a result of a request by NRC that Philadelphia Electric do an evacuation time study, the utility contracted with NUS Corporation to perform the study. The study being done by NUS is presently in draft form and has not yet been submitted to NRC.

Other Evacuation Plans - The Pennsylvania Emergency Manage-ment Agency in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportatien, will develop an evacuation road network and .

an estimate of evacuation time, for the Limerick area.

These esti=ates will be done in conjunction with the actual evacuation plans being developed at the county levels. As is the case with other nuclear plants in Pennsylvania, evacuation tire scenarios for populations within a 2, 5, 10 and 20 mile radius of the station will be developed. Since the first unit at Limerick does not come en line until 1985, Pennsylvania's priority for developing evacuation times for Limerick is lower than for other Pennsylvania nuclear plants such as TMI.

l AREA CHARACTERISTICS The area characterintics were obtained by field inspection, frem information contained in the Limerick Generating Station Environmental Statement supplied by the Licensee, and from information obtained frem the various Planning Ccmmissions of Mcntgcmery, Chester, and Berk ccunties.

Topeeraphy * (6) i

. As mentioned earlier, the Limerick site lies in the upper part of the region known as the Piedmont Providence. In the area around the plant, four distinct habitats are forest, i

successional areas (urban and rural), cultivated areas and wetlands.

Commerical weedlands in the Montgomery County area of Pennsylvania occupy about 13 percent of the total county area.

A large pertion of the cultivated areas in southeastern Pennsylvania prcduces grain, hay, fruit, and vegetables. The wetlands of the area include the Schuylkill River, smaller

streams, small artificial ponds, marshes, and swamps. The station is on the northeast side of the river at a mean 1

elevation of 210 feet above sea level (MSL). Throughout the t

immediate site area the land slopes upward from the river frem an elevatien of roughly 100 to 280 feet (MSL),

warm, humid summers and moderately cold winters. The average temperature of the three-county area is approximately 55 UF.

i Temperatures below 0 F and above 100 F are rare; average daily maximum termperatures range from 87 F in July to 40 F in January,  !

) and average daily minimum tempe'ratures range frem 23 F in January and February to 65 ? in July and August. The average annual precipitation is 45 inches and is rather uniformly -distributed i

throughout the year, with only small differences between the I

wettest and driest =enths. Table 1 gives an average of the data j from 1931 to 1960 frem the West Chester, Coatesville, and

Phoenixville weather stations. These weather conditions are due in large measure to the protection given by the Allegheny Mountains to the west. .

Precipitation - In the pericd of December through the early part of March, part of the precipitation falls in the form of snow produced from storms that are more extensive and frequent than those occurring during the warm seasons. Occasionally, moisture-laden storms moving along che Atlantic Seaboard produce heavy 4 snow, creating near-blizcard conditions. The average annual I snowfall is 29.5

  • III inches, while the record maximum annual snow-

, fall received at Reading, according to available records, was i

58.3* (7) inches, in the winter of 1960-61. The record minimum annual snowfall occurred during the winter of 1972-73, totalling less than 6 *III inches.

Winds - Winds in the Limerick area are predcminantly from the NW. The wind rose in Figure 2 shows the percentage of time I

that the wind comes from each section at the Limerick weather station. Table 2 gives the percentage frequency of wind speeds at l

Peach Bottem, a similar site whose data can be used with substantial confidence.

Surface Nater - In the Schuylkill River, there are high ficws in late winter and early spring when the snows are melting, but the highest ficws are caused by rains from hurricanes which ccca-sionally make their way inland. In June 1972, heavy rains caused by tropical storm Agnes caused record fleeds on the Susquehanna and Schuylkill Rivers in Pennsylvania. The peak ficw rate pro-duced by the storm has been estimated as approximately 110,000 4 cfs at Pcttstown, about 4 miles above t.r.c Limerick site. Pre-liminary estimates are that the water level in the vicinity of the plant reached elevations between 129.5 and 130 feet above mean sea level, which are well belcw the station elevation (about i

210 feet above =si) . The highest flew previously recorded was 53,900 cfs at Pottstown in 1902. The average annual flood flow is 21,000 cfs and the 100-year ficed ficw is computed to be 99,000 cfs. The prchably maximum ficed flow is estimated to be 356,000 cfs. Failure of any maximum floed flow is estimated to be 356,000 cfs. Failure of any upstream dams would not add materially to the level of the probably maximum ficed which is calculated to be 158 feet above mean sea level.

Demograchy Demographic data was collected within the EPZ by townships and boroughs to identify pcpulations and other pertinent factors which affect evacuation. Townships and boroughs were used as -

planning :enes; hcwever, in many instances , the planning zones were subdivided to avoid overloading of roadway networks. When this occurred, the subzones were divided by some early identi-fiable basis to permit the assign.nent of perscns residing in these areas to a logical and definite evacuation route.

The EPZ for Limerick includes townships and boroughs in  ;

i three counties. Each of the 34 townships within the EPS was )

given a letter designation for identification purposes. Where a township was subdivided, the letter designation was suffixed

with a number. The nine boroughs were assigned alpha-numeric 17 r-- u g- > w.- , -wy -

y-- y - -

i I

designations using the letter of the nearest township or town-ships, in cases where a large borough was subidivided.

Table 3 lists all the political subdivisions within the EPZ, namely counties, townships and boroughs and gives the projected 1985 population of each. Populatien projections for 1985 in Berks County were extrapolated from census numbers for 1970 and 1977. In Montgcmery and Chester counties, the 1985 projections

'were interpolated from the 1977 and 1990 census numbers.

Table 4 lists all the schools in the three county area along with their locations and associated enrollment. Likewise hospitals and nursing homes in the EPZ are listed by county in Table 5 and Table 6, respectively, along with their location and associated populations. Table 7 lists all other potential population gathering points by county and location. This list includes such facilities as prisons, parks, campgrounds, and recreation areas. Fiugers 3, 4, 5, and 6 present quadrant maps that depict the location of schcols, hospitals, nursing homes as listed in the above tables. Key numbers in tables refer to the acccmpanying location en the maps.

CONCEPT OF EVACUATICU The concept of evacuation in this assessment of the Limerick evacuation times assumes that everyone in the 10-mile radius will be evacuated outside of that 10-mile radius. There is no assess-

> ment of the time to evacuate within the two- or the five-mile radius. It is assumed that all people that live within the 10-mile radius will be evacuated along a specified route known to them. The evacuation time will include the time frcm notification until the last vehicle crosses the 10-mile radius.

Notification of Evacuation There are two distinct events which are necessary to initiate the evacuation. One event is the direct notification of public agencies, schools, major employees and other locations of large population concentrations. The second event is the dissemination of the evacuation warning to the -

general population. Btoh of these events must include instructicas regarding the sectors to be evacuated. The first event is assumed to be acccmplished by telephone from the Emergency operating Center to the affected group. Ideally the second event would be implemented by a public warning i i

system, which would combine an accustical warning system I by sirens or horns, supplemented by instructions over selected radio and T.V. Broadcast stations. In the particular site, no advanced system of this type is in place. Therefore, the predominant mode of this notification is by use of vehicles and helicopters with mounted loudspeakers. A specified message frem these vehicles would indicate that an evacuation has been rscommended and to turn on their radios for 29 w

.e 4

additional information. Radio stations must be provided with complete, accurate and current information. They should have prior zone descriptions and repeat recommended routing information. They shculd have phone numbers people can call should these people require special evacuation assistance or additional information.

Public Resoonse Time There can be up to four activities preceding the evacuation from the home which car be stahistically distributed in time:

(1) Receive warning; (2) Leave work;~ (3) Travel home; and, (4) Evacuate home. Each of the response times may have  :

different distributions, depending upon the particular

! scenario being assessed.

Receict of Notification - Receipt of notification is assumed to approach a normal distribution in time; therefore, the accumulated probability approaches an "S" curve. This distribution can be approximated by three straight lines.

One line, passing through the 50 percent, 16 percent and 84 percent distributions, represents two time increments. One straight line frem zero to 16 percent represents one time in-rement. The third straight line from 84 to 100 percent represents one time increment. It is assumed that the time increments are five minutes, so the total time for receipt of notification is 20 minutes.

This distribution means that 16 percent will have been notified within the first five minutes, 50 percent will have been notified in ten minutes, 84 percent will have been notified in 15 minutes, and 100 percent will have been notified in 20 minutes. (See Volume I for more detail.)

30 i

t

Departure Frem Place of Work - Departure from the place of work is assumed to approach a normal distribution curve in the same manner as receipt of notification. Distribution is approximated by three straight lines and four five-minute time increments. The distribution assumes that 16 percent will depart from their place of work in five minutes, 50 percent will depart in ten cinctes, 84 percent w;11 depart in 15 minutes, and 100 percent will depart in 20 minutes (see Volume I for more detail.)

Travel From Work to Heme - The time of travel to the home approaches normal distribution of time in the same manner as the two previous responses. Under normal conditions this distribution assumes that 16 percent will' travel to home in five minutes, 50 percent in 10 minutes, 84 percent in 15 minutes, and 100 percent will travel to hcme in 20 minutes. This distribution is expanded in certain scenarios, specifically that of the adverse weather scenario (see Volume I for more detail).

Departure From Ecme - Departure frem home also approaches a normal distribution in time and the accumulated probability approaches and "S" curve. The distribution is approximated by three straight lines in the same manner as the above three responses. The activity is distributed over eight five-minute periods for a total of 40 minutes. The distribution indicates that eight percent will depart from h'ome in the first five minutes,16 percent in ten minutes, 33 percent in 15 minutes, 50 percent in 20 minutes, 67 percent in 25 minutes, 84 percent in 30 minutes, 92 percent 12 35 minutes, and 100 percent will have departed home within 40 minutes' (see Volume I for further details.)

l Evacuation Link / Node Network The evacuation routes for each centroid has been manually established and coded for comcuter evaluation. Figures 7, 8, 9, and 10 indicate the coded network and the evacuation route fer each -centroid.

Table 8 contains the network descriptiens. The table contains two node numbers for each end of a given link, the distance between nodes in miles, the assumed speed for that link, j its total capacity in vehicles per hour in the direction of evac-

. uation, and the identiry of the roadway. For example, the first link in Table 9 is from Node 11 to Nede 201. The distance is 0.10 miles, the assigned speed is 35 miles per hour, the capacity is 1,500 vph, and the roadway seg=ent is en Egypt Road. The values assigned to each link represent the best judgement of these factors considering readway gecmetry, width, terrain and other factors.

Many of the evacuation zones are rather large and may have several centroids. These centroids associated with population centers and are located to provide for a logical evacuation of the zone.

The capacities established for each link are not the capacities that could be expected under normal circumstances.

The evacuation of a ten-mile area has all the vehicles headed in the same direction, with the possible exception of emergency vehicles coming into the area. Because of the directional flow and controlled routings, lane capacities are generally larger tlum could be expected under normal circumstances. Another important factor that contributes to smoother flow and greater capacities is that all drivers of vehicles on any roadway segment are of one accord and are headed for the same location.

Generally, they are probably the most seasoned, experienced of the drivers in a household. All drivers know that they must evacuate the area and cross the ten-mile zone.

Table 9 indicates the vehicles en each link. The nucher l of vehicles is determined by the population to be evacuated and is based upon the assumption that each vehicle will evacuate

'3.0 people. It has been observed in other actual evacuations that about 99 percent of the evacuees leave by private automobile.

, Therefore, this is a conservative assumption that all people are to be evacuated by automobilu. The number of vehicles on each link is a summation of all the vehicles from the different cen-troids that use any specific link of roadway.

Table 10 describes the evacuation route with a link-nede description by centroid. This table gives the numbers of each node through which each evacuation route passes.

Table 9 de-scribes each link in this evacuation route and Table'9 indicates the number of vehicles on each link. ,

Directional Flow - All network routings will operate as two-way facilities. In the case of two-lane roadway, the cutbound lane is for evacuation with the inbcund lane used for emergency vehicles. A three-lane facility assumes two evacuacion lanes and cne inbound lane. A fcur-lans f acility assumes two evacuation lanes and two emergency lanes.

Travel Speeds - Speeds were assigned to each link depending on the character of the roadway. Freeway speeds were assigned at 50 m.p.h. with rarp speeds at 20 m.p.h. For two lane road-ways, State Highways were assigned at 35 m.p.h. and 30 m.p.h.

for roadways of lesser quality. Scme downtown streets in Potts-town were astigned speeds of 25 m.p.h. Centroid connectors were considered as local streets and assigned a speed of 15 m.p.h.

Capacities - Capacities were assigned to the evacuation network to reflect emergency conditions with traffic ficwing in one directien, occasional emergency vehicles opposing the traffic ficw and problem areas controlled by special traffic features.

Under these conditions the follcwing capacities were assigned.

l.. Freeway 2,000 vehicles per. lane per hour; therefore, two evacuation lanes would be 4,000 per hour.

2. Two-lane-Facilities - A capacity of 1,500 vehicles per lane per hour was assigned _to State Highway = and other high type roadways and 1,000 vehicles per lane per hour for a roadway of lesser quality.
3. Interchanges and Ramps - 1,500 vehicles per hour.

Special Traffic Control Stratecies - In order to attain maximum capacity on the network, centrol critical intersection-movements.and provide direction for complex evacuation routings, special traffic control strategies are Emperative.

In some instances major population centers were split to avoid overloads to the network and produce abnormally long delays.

These locations will require special handling to ensure that motorists utilize their assigned routing for evacuation. A case in point is node 67 at the junction of High Street and Hanover Street in downtown-Pottstown. All west bound traffic on High Street will be required to turn left onto Hanover Street and

cross the bridge. All south bound traffic on Hanover Street will have to turn right onto High Street and proceed out of town on U.S. 422.

i Interchanges and ramps which affect the capacity that can be loaded to the main line will need special control strategies.

Special Transportation Recuirements - Transportation require-ments for special problem groups, such as non-car owning families, hospitals, schools, jails , etc. , were not included in the evacua-tien time assessment. The assumtpion was that all families would evacuate as a unit from home. This would preclude the requirement i for evacuating school students from school. to outside the risk -

area.

1 EVACUATION TIME ASSESSMENT Evacuation times have been considered for four different scenarios. The scenarios are:

1. Normal weekday - workers at work, children in school
2. Ideal conditions - nighttime, most everyone at home
3. Adverse weather conditions - storms, fog, or flood
4. Summertime recreational peak The assessment was performed by computer to a process described in some detail in Volume I.

Normal Weekday Table 11 lists the evacuation times by centroid for the four scenarios listed above. The maximum evacuation time is three i

hours and nine minutes for centroid Z-3 during the normal week-4 day. This centroid is in East Coventrf Township. These evacuation tiras include receipt of. warning, leaving work, travel home, departure from home, network travel and delay time.

Summertime There are no major recreation areas within the EP and the summertime pcpulation is the same as other seasons. There fore ,

the evacuatien times are the same as normal weekday.

Adverse Weatner If the weather were adverse to the extent traffic could not move on the roadway system, then the plant would probably have to be shut down. The probability of that happening is very re-mote. A more likely occurrence is icy, slick roads during a winter storm.

. ,r The second column of Table 11 assumes an ice storm, or ice and snow ccabination, where roadways are not impassable but are much slower to travel. Under these conditions, travel frem work to home would be distributed over 40 minutes instead of 20 min-utes. Network travel during evacuation would probably be reduced to one-half of normal speed.

With these conditions, the maximum evacuation time would be three hours and 10 minutes for centroid Z-3. Generally, the adverse weather times -are longer than the evacuation times for su=mer.

Nichttime This scenario provides the shcrtest evacuation times of all.

People are hcme from work and children are home from schcol.

With the f amily all at hcme, the mobilization time is less. There is a time distribution for receiving the warning and a time dis-tributien for preparing to leave. The time distributions for preparing to leave work and travel from work to home does not apply.

Under these conditions, the maximum evacuation time would be two hours and 54 minutes for centroid Z-3. The third column of Table 11 gives the evacuation time at night.

Sector Evacuation I

Evacuation Plans are usually set up on a sector or quandrant 1 basis. This assessment has not been concerned wish segmenting the 10-mile radius. The assessment locked at total evacuatica from the EPZ. Ecwever, this does not preclude evacuation by quadrants. Cuadrants can be examined frem the data in this report. Sector evacuation can be apprcximated by the selection of appropriate planning =cnes.
