U.S. Department of Homeland Security Region VI 800 N. Loop 288 Denton, TX 76209-3698 FEMA April 30. 2018 Mr. Kriss Kennedy Regional Administrator, U.S. NRC, Region IV 1600 E. Lamar Blvd.

Arlington, TX 76011-4511

Dear Mr. Kennedy:

Enclosed is a copy of the radiological emergency preparedness final report for the South Texas Project Medical Services Drill evaluated on March 8, 2018, by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security/Federal Emergency Management Agency Region 6. FEMA staff evaluated the plwne exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) around the South Texas Project (STP) located near Wadsworth, Matagorda County, Texas. There were no Level 1 Findings (Deficiencies), One Level 2 finding (Area Requiring Corrective Action) that was corrected on the spot, and no Plan Issues identified during this Drill.

Based on the results of the exercise, the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the STP and the affected local jurisdictions are deemed adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. Therefore, 44 CPR Part 350 approval of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Texas site-specific to STP will remain in effect.

A hard copy of this report was mailed to the NRC Headquarters Docwnent Control Desk and a copy has been transmitted electronically to RIV FEMADistribution(a),nrc.gov as specified in the FEMA REP Program Manual dated January 2016. Should you have questions, please contact me at (940) 898-5199, or Brad DeKorte, STP Site Specialist, at (940) 383-7304.

Sincerel,Y,
