Subject:
ENERGEf1CY PREPAREDfiESS EXERCISES As you are aware, the revised emergency planning rule published August 19, 1980, requires that emergency preparedness be upgraded and maintained at and around nuclear power plants. Part of the maintenance process is a requirement for periodic exercises, some of which must have offsite partic-ipation.
In addition, a fullscale exercise must also be conducted before any new license can be granted. The NRC will provide observers for the onsite aspects of these exercises and will review the proposed scenarios.
Although we originally believed that two weeks prior to an exercise would be sufficient for review of the scenario for 1) adequacy in terms of scope (testing of major areas of respor.se), and 2) in terms of adequacy of response for major portions of offsite plans; we now recognize that amount of time is not adequate to ensure proper review and coordination with all the partici-pants control organizations. Therefore, we request the following be implemented.
Period in Advance of Exercise Information to be Submitted 75 days Description of scope of exercise and objectives to be fulfilled 45 days Detailed description of exercise scenario and anticipated licensee actions 20 days Complete controller / prompter packages which contain the information to be supplied to the observers for the exercise along with that supplied to 8201260306 820114 is unfolded.
