Dear Mr. Sylvia:

Subject:

F241<AGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION 50-220/92-27; 50-410/92-31

Enclosed is the report of the November 03-05, 1992 inspection, led by Mr. J. Lusher, of

Nine MilePoint Nuclear Station Emergency Preparedness

(EP) and of the partial-

participation, annual EP exercise.

Our inspection findings were based on inspector

observations,

discussions with your staff, and document review. At the end of the

inspection, the preliminary NRC findings were discussed with members of your staff.

Overall, exercise performance demonstrated

the ability to protect public health and safety.

No exercise strengths were identified.

Lack of timely issuance of a Protective Action

Recommendation

upon declaration of a General Emergency was an exercise weakness.

Areas for improvement included:

inadvertent, early staffing of Emergency Response

Facilities,

the scenario precluding certain emergency actions of control room operators,

a

lack of coordination between the Technical Data Coordinator and Radiological Manager to

determine release pathways and fuel damage assessment,

and damage control team briefing

and dispatch.

No reply to this letter is required.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Qnginal Signed By;

James
