SUBJECT:
OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION OFFSITE FOCUSED AREA DEMONSTATION EXERCISE RESCHEDULED
Dear Mr. Pardee:
On November 3, 2009, the NRC sent you a letter regarding a planning deficiency identified during evaluation of the October 6, 2009, emergency preparedness exercise at the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station. The deficiency resulted from a number of the municipalities not receiving notice of the Protective Action Decision, which recommended evacuation of a number of Emergency Response Planning Areas (ERP As) and sheltering-in-place for the rest of the ERPAs in the Emergency Planning Zone {EPZ}, for over an hour.
On November 12, 2009, we were informed that the proposed date for the focused area demonstration exercise would be changed. The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the focused demonstration of this aspect of the exercise originally scheduled for December 8, 2009.
has been rescheduled for January 28,2010.
The NRC encourages Exelon 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 NRC-FEMA Memorandum of Understanding, the NRC and the FEMA Region II Office will assess the progress made toward resolution of the issue, and will decide at that time if additional measures are necessary.
If this issue is not adequately resolved by February 4, 2010, FEMA 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).
