SUBJECT:
OFFSITE PLANNING DEFICIENCY IDENTIFIED DURING THE AUGUST 16, 2006, EXERCISE
Dear Mr. Hinnenkamp:
Enclosed is a copy of a letter from the US Department of Homeland Security, Chemical and Nuclear Preparedness and Protection Division, Denton Field Office to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality dated August 28, 2006. This letter discusses a deficiency identified during evaluation of the August 16, 2006, emergency preparedness exercise at River Bend Station. The US Department of Homeland Security defines a deficiency as "an observed or identified inadequacy of organizational performance in an exercise that could cause a finding that offsite emergency preparedness is not adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken in the event of a radiological emergency to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of a nuclear power plant." Specifically, the deficiency was related to the broadcast of an emergency alert system message prior to sounding of the emergency alert sirens, which would result in a delay in the public receiving the alert message until that message was repeated.
The purpose of this letter is to communicate the US Department of Homeland Security's official notification of the deficiency in accordance with the NRC-Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Memorandum of Understanding (the radiological preparedness elements of FEMA having been transferred to the US Department of Homeland Security, Chemical and Nuclear Preparedness and Protection Division). No response to the NRC is required.
The NRC encourages River Bend Station to work with the appropriate offsite governmental agencies to ensure a timely resolution of this issue. The NRC will continue to monitor the status of this issue. In accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding, the NRC and the US Department of Homeland Security, Denton Area Field Office will assess the progress made toward resolution of this issue by approximately November 28, 2006, and will decide at that time if additional measures are necessary.
Entergy Operations, Inc. If this issue is not resolved by December 15, 2006, the US Department of Homeland Security may withdraw the finding of reasonable assurance according to the requirements of 44 CFR 350.13(a). At that time the NRC would take appropriate action according to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(s)(2) and 50.54(s)(3).
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,
/RA/
