SAPL RESPONSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPEAL BOARD ORDER OF AUGUST 30, 1989 INTRODUCTION By order dated August 30, 1989, the Appeal Board asked the Applicants to furnish certain data to support the claimed evacuee load on the four host community reception / decontamination centers, as discussed in the Partial Initial Decision, 28 NRC 667 at 699, et sea.

By a pleading dateo September 7, 1989, the Applicants furnished certain figures which they believe support the numerical findings of the Licensing Board.

The Massachusetts Attorney General's office is furnishing a full response to the Applicants' admission, in which SAPL joins.

In this response, SAPL 8909250041 890915 PDR ADOCK 05000443 G

'O 1

l l

l asserts that, with regard to the Applicants' claim that the beach population figure for Hampton Beach, which is assigned to the i

Manchester Reception / Decontamination Center, is misleading.

At page 3 of the Applicants' September 7 response, they 1

identify the number of evacuees at Hampton Beach, which may potentially require reception and decontamination services, as 23,609.

In the further section, entitled " Peak Population Explanation", at page 6, the Applicants state that this figure is a higher figure than that set forth in the NHRERP, by some 9,621, and was derived from aerial photos of parking spaces at Hampton Beach, and the application of an assumed vehicle occupancy factor of 2.4.

In referring to 23,609 as the evacuee load from Hampton Beach, the Applicants may be making serious underestimate.

Presumably, this is intended to represent the population only on that portion of Hampton Beach between Great Boar's Head and the Hampton Harbor Bridge. - (See attached map. )

This portion of Hampton Beach is described in the Partial Initial Decision as "Hampton Beach South" and said to have a summer weekend peak population of 23,841 (PID 8.43, 28 NRC at 761)1 Even assuming that this population figure is correct, for this limited portion 1/ SAPL is unable to account for the difference between the Applicants' use of 23,609, and the Licensing Board's reference to 23,841, if--as we assume--both are referring to that portion of Hampton Beach from Boar's Head to the Harbor Bridge.

of.the New Hampshire seacoast in Hampton, the fact is that no 1.

where.in the public information materials afforded to the permanent and' transient residents in the seacoast. area is there any suggestion that only those in this portion of the beaches within the Town of Hampton are to go to Manchester, with those north of Boar's Head to go to some other reception / decontamination center, apparently Dover..At Tr. 4940, the Applicants' witness Callendrello did state that a portion of the evacuees on beaches within the town of Hampton would be going to Dover, and not to Manchester, but this is not made clear either in the NHRERP (see attached excerpt from the Manchester Host Plan) or in the public information material made available (see attached evacuation information calendar).

If, indeed, the entire Hampton Beach area, including those on North Hampton Beach, but still within the Town of Hampton, should

.go to the Manchester Reception / Decontamination Center, it is evident that far more than either 23,609 or 23,841 would be involved.

The Licensing Board found a peak vehicle population in the beach area to be 35,000 to 36,000 vehicles, with an expected peak of 31,000 vehicles.

(PID 2.122, 28 NRC at 802)

Applying the Applicants' claimed occupancy rate of 2.4 persons per vehicle, it is evident that a very substantial population in the beach area, l

3

'if one-includes the beach area north of Great Boar's Head, would be involved.
