Dear :
We have received the attached Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) letter dated April 23, 1981, and the attached letter from CEMA to the New York State Disaster Preparedness Commission dated April 6, 1981, which lists numerous deficiencies in the New York State and local emergency response plans for the area around your reactor site. Although we have not completed our review and assessment of the overall state of emergency preparedness we are of the view that many of these deficiencies identified by FEMA must be removed in order for us to conclude that appropriate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency at your facility. We have concluded that assurance of both onsite and offsite preparedness is needed to protect the health and safety of the public. This is to notify you that should the deficiencies not be corrected within 120 days of the date of this letter, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission will determine whether your reactor shall be shut down until such deficiencies are remedied or whether other enforcement action is appropriate.
We are concerned that the availability and allocation of resources necessary to address the FEMA deficiencies are not clearly defined. We also fully recognize that the deficiencies to be corrected may involve actions by other parties and political institutions which are not under your direct control.
Nonetheless, we would expect this subject to be addressed by you as well as others.
We understand that New York State believes that State legislation is required to fully resolve the offsite planning problems and that resolution of the legislative issues involved can be achieved within the period allowed for correcting the deficiencies.
You are requested to submit a written statement to this office within 30 days of the date of this letter, describing plans for correcting each of the ll deficiencies identified in the April 6,1981 letter. This request affects fewer than ten (10) licensees and therefore, is not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (PL 96-511).
If any unusual problems develop we are available to work with you and the State and local authorities along with FEMA to resolve the problem. Additional notifications of this type may be issued as our emergency preparedness review continues through observations of the annual joint exercise, and onsite inspections of your emergency preparedness.
Sincerely, Boyce H. Grier Director
