RESPONSE TO INTERR0GATORIES DATED JUNE 29.-1984 PROPOUNDED BY WELLS EDDLEMAN CONCERNING EDDLEMEN 215 AND 224 The following responses are presented on behalf of the NRC staff for which I serve as a subcontractor through the Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratories. Battelle is responsible under contract to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for reviewing evacuation time estimates.

GENERAL INTERR0GATORIES My name is Thomas Urbanik, II. I am an Associate Research Engineer associated with the Texas Transportation Institute of the Texas A&M University System, College Station Texas. I serve as a subcontractor through the Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratories. Battello is responsible under contract to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for reviewing evacuation time estimates for nuclear facilities. A statement of my professional qualifications is attached.

I have reviewed the October 1983 Evacuation Time Estimate Study entitled

" Evacuation Time Estimates for the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone, Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant", prepared by HMM Associates of Raleigh, North Carolina. A copy of my review is attached. The documents 1

. . l assisting in my review include NUREG-0654, the Highway Capacity Manual, and l 1

the . Interim ' Materials on Highway Capacity. The last two cited documents are available from the Transportation Research Board, National Academy of Sciences Washington, D.C.

SPECIFIC INTERR0GATORIES In regards to Interrogatory 224-1, I have conducted no independent analysis of meterological data and I do not have any data outside that presented in the October 1983 Evacuation Time Estimate Study.

In regards to Interrogatory 224-2, sensitivity analyses, none were performed at Shearon Harris beyond those contained in the October 1983 Evacuation Time Estimate Study.

In regards to Interrogatory 215-1, 215-2 and 215-3, no data or analyses of transient populations or their characteristics were done beyond those emminating from the October 1983 Evacuation Time Estimate Study; and none are planned.

In regards to Interrogatory 215-4 and 215-5, no such studies have been made.

In regards to Interrogatory 215-6, the Highway Statistics Division,

, Federal Highway Administration U.S. Department of Transportation has pub-lished findings from the 1977 National Personal Transportation Study which contains data concerning vehicle occupancy (see for example Report 6. Vehicle Occupancy). However, no special analyses beyond those contained in the October 1983 Evacuation Time Estimate Study were made.

In regard to Interrogatories 215-7 to 215-9, I know of no analyses beyond those previously stated.
