SUBJECT:
NRC PARTICIPATION IN THE CATAWBA APRIL 17, 2012 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS EXERCISE
Dear Mr. Morris:
The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission routinely participates in licensees= emergency preparedness exercises to ensure that the NRC=s Incident Response capabilities are effectively maintained, and to provide licensees an opportunity to exercise the interface with the NRC that may occur during the response to an incident at their sites. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our intent to participate in your Catawba Emergency Preparedness Exercise that is scheduled to occur on April 17, 2012, which was previously discussed with Tina Kuhr of the Duke Energy Emergency Preparedness staff, and Tom Arlow of your staff. The extent of participation will only involve regional response staff.
The Regional response will involve activating our Region II Incident Response Center and sending an NRC Site Team, including our resident inspectors, to your facilities. Additionally, if requested by the states of North Carolina and South Carolina, we will have an NRC participant at the state Emergency Operations Center. If our scope of participation changes, we will contact your emergency preparedness staff to discuss the changes. We will also be coordinating with your staff to schedule pre-exercise outreach discussions and meetings to address any questions or concerns related to our participation.
