SUBJECT:
Status of Off-site Preparedness for Nine Mile Point Nuclear Power Station (NMDNS)
This is in response to the NRC/ FEMA Memorandum of Understanding as documented in the third NRC/ FEMA Joint Monthly Feport to Congress on Emergency Preparedness.
This joint report states that FEMA shall report on the status of off-site preparedness for the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Power Station by October 15, 1981.
The Region reports that in general, during the most recent exercise (9/30/81),
the State and local Energency Operction Center (EOC) facilities and equipment, as well as the emergency management activities, exceeded minimum standards.
Ilowever, local activities to gather radiological informad on (monitoring), as well as to implement notification and protective actions, were generally weak or not demonstrated.
As a result of these deficiencies, Region II currently finds that it is questionable as to whether or not the public in the area near the NMPNS could be protected if an actual emergency occurred.
(It is important to note that the State in this exercise did not fully actieate to the " State Emergency" level because the scenario did not escalate to t1at status.) The Regional staff expects the State of New York to present a schedule for resolution of the deficiencies by October 20, 1981.
Attached is a draft of the Dost Exercise Assessment that was presented to the State of New York.
If you have further questions, please contact Kenneth Green, Project Of ficer for m'PNS, at 287-3839.
