DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY/FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY STATE OF ILLINOIS AND GRUNDY COUNTY EXERCISE DEFICIENCY FINDINGS TRANSMITTAL LETTER TO DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 2 AND 3

Dear Mr. Pardee:

We have received the enclosed Department of Homeland Security/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region V letter, dated April 7, 2009, for the March 25, 2009 plume exposure pathway exercise at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station (ADAMS Accession No. ML091060677).

Two Deficiency findings were identified by FEMA Region V staff. The State received a Deficiency finding under Protective Action Decision Making (Criterion 2.b.2) and Grundy County received a Deficiency finding under Emergency Notification and Public Information (Criterion 5.b.1). These issues were presented to the exercise participants, including State and Grundy County staff during the post-exercise Participant's Meeting on March 27, 2009.

We fully recognize that any corrective actions to be implemented may involve parties and political institutions which are not under your direct control. Nonetheless, we expect that assistance, if appropriate, will be extended.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely,
