U.S. Department of Homeland Security FEMA Region 6 800 North Loop 288 Denton, TX 76209 FEMA August 22, 2018 Mr. Kriss Kennedy Regional Administrator, U.S. NRC, Region 6 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 Ingestion Pathway Exercise evaluated on June 12-13, 2018, by the Federal Emergency Management Agency Region 6. FEMA staff evaluated the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) and the Ingestion Pathway around the South Texas Project (STP) located near Wadsworth, Matagorda County, Texas. There were no Level 1 Findings (Deficiencies), no Level 2 findings (Area Requiring Corrective Action), and no Plan Issues identified during this exercise.
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. We determined that appropriate measures can be taken to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. Therefore, 44 CFR Part 350 approval of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for.the State of Texas specific to STP will remain in effect.
A hard copy of this report was mailed to the NRC Headquarters Document Control Desk and a copy has been transmitted electronically to RIV FEMADistribution@nrc.gov as specified in the FEMA REP Program Manual dated January 2016. Should you have questions, please contact Brad DeKorte, STP Site Specialist, at (940) 383-7304.
Sincerely,
~a-~
