Dear Mr. Reid:
!
Subject:
EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS (EP) INSPECTION NO. 50-271/93-07
Enclosed is the sport of the April 26-29,1993 inspection, led by Mr. J. Lusher, of the Vermont
Yankee Nucleat .'. ;er Corporation full-participation, ingestion path-way, annual EP exercise.
Our inspection finding ' were based on inspector observations, discussions with your staff, and
document review. At the end of the inspection, the preliminary NRC findings were discussed
with Mr. Pelletier and other members of your staff.
Overall, the on-site emergency response to this exercise scenario was good. No exercise
weaknesses or violations of regulatory requirements were identified. The scenario aggressively
challenged your staff's response in the Operations Support Center (OSC), where team briefings,
team dispatch, and procedure adherence were much improved over the previous exercise.
'
Emergency Response Organization (ERO) mobilization timeliness (95 minutes versus a 60
minute goal) and shift operator performance were identified as significant areas for potential
improvement.
l
No reply to this letter is required. Thank you for your cooperation.
