August 30, 2018 Stephen B. Comley, Sr.
P.O. Box 646 Rowley, MA 01969
Dear Mr. Comley:
U.S. Department of Homeland Security FEMA Region I 99 High Street Boston, MA 02110 FEMA I am responding to your phone calls to the Federal Emergency Management Agency
("FEMA") Regional Office in which you expressed concerns about the local evacuation planning and lack of exercises, drills, and preparedness at the Seabrook Nuclear Power Station in Seabrook, NH.
The FEMA Radiological Emergency Preparedness ("REP") Program coordinates the national effort to provide state, local, and tribal governments with relevant and executable planning, training, and exercise guidance and policies necessary to ensure that adequate capabilities exist to prevent, protect against, mitigate the effects of, respond to, and recovery from incidents involving commercial nuclear power plants ("NPP"). Under this program, FEMA assists state, local, and tribal governments in the development and conduct of off-site radiological emergency preparedness activities within the emergency planning zones of Nuclear Regulatory Commission licensed commercial NPPs.
The federal regulations at 44 C.F.R. pt. 350 address FEMA's role in conducting assessments and issuing findings regarding offsite emergency plans/procedures for responding to radiological emergencies at commercial NPPs. In the communities surrounding commercial NPPs, 44 C.F.R. § 350.5 directs FEMA to review state and local radiological emergency plans and preparedness and will only approve these plans if they "adequately protect the public health and safety by providing reasonable assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken offsite in the event of a radiological emergency." FEMA will make this adequacy determination through various means, to include participating in, observing, and evaluating drills and exercises conducted by state and local governments surrounding a commercial NPP.
FEMA recently evaluated the plans and procedures of state and local governments surrounding the Seabrook Nuclear Power Station on April 4, 2018 during the Biennial Seabrook Emergency Exercise. Following the exercise, FEMA conducted a public meeting on April 6, 2018, to, among other things, acquaint members of the public with the content of the applicable plans, discuss FEMA's review of the relevant plans and the www.fema.gov
Stephen B. Comley, Sr. August 30, 2018 exercise, and receive suggestions from the public concerning improvements or changes that may be necessary. FEMA, after the public meeting, later issued its after action report/improvement plan on June 6, 2018, that concluded that state and local governments demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them. There were, furthermore, no Level 1 or 2 findings nor any planning issues identified during the exercise.
I hope this information has been helpful. If you have any specific comments or suggestions concerning the evacuation planning by local communities, you may wish to bring those concerns to the local governments in question. You may also wish to identify these concerns during public hearings that follow FEMA's evaluation of an exercise.
Sincerely, Douglas F. W lcott, Jr.
Acting Deputy Regional Administrator FEMA Region I
S. B. Comley 2
Seabrook Station, two NRC staff members from the NRC's Office of Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response (NSIR) that specialize in emergency preparedness were present for you to discuss your concerns.
On the issue of the NRC supporting past assertions by yourself and We The People, the Office of Inspector General (OIG) maintains copies of their reports dating back to 1995 on the NRC's public website. Any of the six reports you wish to obtain prior to 1995 will need to be obtained from the OIG. The contact information for the OIG can be located on www.nrc.gov.
As previously stated to you back in February 2014 (ML14043A360), the NRC continues to have a vendor inspection program, which is being conducted by NRC's Office of New Reactors. Prior efforts in this area were the responsibility of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. However, given significant changes in personnel, including retirements, in the NRC organization since you first raised your concerns with counterfeit and substandard parts, it would be unproductive for us to search for who previously managed that effort almost 30 years ago. Current NRC's ongoing actions in this area were discussed in a generic communication to a wide audience in NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2015-08 "Oversight Of Counterfeit, Fraudulent, And Suspect Items In The Nuclear Industry," dated June 24, 2015 (ML15008A191).
Thank you for submitting your issues in writing via postal or electronic mail. As I discussed in an April 12, 2017 (ML17104A068), these written communications help us ensure that the public record reflects your issues exactly as you communicate them to us in your written documents and helps prevent misunderstandings. We have carefully evaluated and responded to your input.
Resource limitations prevent us from responding to repetitive correspondence in detail; therefore, we plan to take no further action regarding the information you provided as referenced in the enclosure to this letter. If in the future you provide new information regarding Seabrook Station, or other NRC licensee activity, we will review the information and take appropriate action as it pertains to safety and security.
Finally, as requested, I am sharing your concerns and this reply with the Office of the NRC Chairwoman for whatever action they deem appropriate. I am also sharing this reply with the NRC Office of Inspector General for any action they deem appropriate as well.

QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS YOU RAISED IN FEBRUARY, MARCH, AND APRIL 2018 IN MULTIPLE EMAILS AND A CERTIFIED LETTER
[2018-SST-1346 and 1409]
Dear Mr. Comley:
I am responding to your calls to Mr. Richard Barkley of my staff on February 7 and March 27, and your subsequent emails to him on February 22, March 1 and 28, April 6, and May 8, 2018, and your certified letter dated March 16, 2018, all of which included a large number of attachments and a video in one case. On May 2, 2018, you also provided a number of NRC staff present at the Public Annual Assessment Meeting for Seabrook Station (ML18109A015) with packets of documents that you summarized for me in a telephone conversation on May 3, 2018. Your emails, letter and information packet were entered into ADAMS as shown in the enclosed table and my reply will also be added into ADAMS as a public record.
In response to your request for copies of the notes taken at a September 2, 2016, meeting with Deputy Massachusetts State Police Commander Francis Hughes between you, the Commander, and John Giarrusso of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, we suggest that you direct your request to one of these parties or make a public records request to the State of Massachusetts via www.Mass.gov. The NRC was not present at that meeting and thus does not have notes of what was discussed.
Regarding your assertions involving other government entities in Massachusetts (i.e., the Governor, the Attorney General and the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) and Massachusetts Public Safety Departments) to whom you brought your emergency planning concerns to since September 2016, it is not within our purview to investigate the alleged actions (or alleged lack of action) by state government entities.
While your past concerns are known to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
Region I due to their past communications with you and by our providing carbon copies of some of the NRC's response letters to them and MEMA, Mr. Barkley provided you, by an email dated March 28, 2018, with FEMA's formal notification of a public meeting scheduled for April 6, 2018, following the Biennial Seabrook Emergency Exercise held on April 4, 2018. As we have informed you in previous correspondence and communications, FEMA has jurisdiction of offsite emergency preparedness involving commercial nuclear power plants and they are ultimately the authority that must validate your assertions with the adequacy of emergency preparedness at Seabrook Station. Therefore we thought that it would be best for you to share your concerns directly with FEMA Region I representatives before or following this meeting. It is our understanding you chose not to attend this meeting. On May 2, 2018, at the Public Annual Assessment Meeting for
