Title | Loss of Tone Alert Radio System |
Event Description | On Monday, March 5, 2012, at 1305 EST, Oswego County Warning Point notified Nine Mile Point [NMP] and NYS [New York State] Warning Point, via the RECS Line, of a loss of the Tone Alert System for greater than one hour as of 1236 EST from the National Weather Service. Site Emergency Procedures define a loss of Tone Alert System for greater than one hour as a significant loss of Emergency Communications (EPlP-EPP-30).
This impacts the ability to readily notify a portion of the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) Population for the NMP and JAF [James A. FitzPatrick] Nuclear Power Plants. This failure meets NRC 8-hour reporting criteria 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii). The County Alert Sirens, which also function as part of the Public Prompt Notification System, remained operable. The loss of the Tone Alert System constitutes a significant loss of emergency off-site communications capability. Compensatory measures were verified to be available should the Prompt Notification System be needed. This consists of utilizing the hyper-reach system, which is a reverse 911 feature available from the county 911 center. Local law enforcement personnel are also available for 'Route Alerting' of the affected areas of the EPZ. As of 1327 EST on March 5, 2012, Nine Mile Point was notified by the Oswego County Warning Point that the Tone Alert System has been returned to service. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
