)b Gentlemen:

By letter dated April 24, 1981, I transmitted to you a copy of a lette: from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) dated April 23, 1981 and its attached letter from FEMA to the New York State Disaster Preparedness Commission dated April 6, 1981. The attachments to the April 6, 1981 letter listed numerous deficiencies in the New York State and local emergency response plans for the area around your reactor site.

The enclosed letter from FEMA d.ted August 19, 1981, refers to the deficiencies in the aforemention':d April 6, 1981 letter.

FEMA concludes that "the present state of planning is generally adequate to carry out the responsibilities of the State and local government in the case of an accident at these sites". We therefore conclude that this issue has been resolved satisfactorily.

Sincerely, Original Signed By:

SUBJECT:

Status of Off-Site Planning in N York State In previous correspondence you requested that, this office furnish a statement on the status of planning in New York State involving the Nine Mile Point, Fitzpatrick, Ginna and Indian Point sites which were subject to NRC enforcement actions.

I am pleased to report on these facilities as follows.

4..

Our letter of April 6, 1981, which listed deficiencies in the relationship between the State of New York and the site specific counties, has been partially answered by the enactment of new legislation by the State of New York.

Chapter. i 709 of the New York Code now eliminates the inconsistencies in direction and control.

New York has incorporated the provisions of Chapter 708 into the planc and will ensure that any remaining inconsistencies are corrected.

These provisions will be reflect ed in the site specific plans for the sites listed sbove.

FEMA Region II is working with the State on the resolution of the health physics items and we have assurance that these deficiencies will be addressed by the time exercises for these sites are completed.

E'itzpatrick will exercise September 15, 1981, Ginna November 5,1981, and Indian Point March 3,1982.

.; q Formal plans reviews by the Regional Assistance Committees are now underway with fitzpatrick/Nine Mile Point as the first priority.

FEMA Region II has now received the plans for Ginna and Indian Point.

s

, Based on this information, snd our general knowledge cf the State of planning for the four sites, FEMA believes that the present state of planning is generally I

adequate to carry out the responsibilities of the State and. local government in the case of an accident at these sites.

A judgement of the overall adequacy of preparedness cannot be provided until the results of the exeri.ises are evaluated.
