Subject:
Emergency Preparedness Appraisal
To verify that licensees have attained an edequate state of onsite emergency
preparedness, the Office of Inspection and Enforcement is conducting special
appraisals of the emergency preparedness programs at each power reactor site.
These appraisals are being perfomed in lieu of certain routine inspections
normally conducted in the area of emergency preparedness. The objectives of the
appraisal at each facility are to evaluate the overall adequacy and effectiveness
of emergency preparedness and to identify areas of weakness that need to be
strengthened. We will use the findings from these appraisals as a basis not only
for requesting individual applicant and licensee action to correct deficiencies
and effect improvements, but also for effecting improvements in NRC requirements
and guidance.
During the period of January 5-8, 1982, the NRC conducted a special appraisal of
the emergency preparedness program at the Grand Gulf Nuclear Station. Areas
examined during this appraisal are described in the enclosed report (50-416/
82-03). Within these areas the appraisal team reviewed selected procedures and
representative records, inspected emergency facilities and equipment, and
interviewed personnel.
The findings of this emergency preparedness appraisal indicate that certain
deficiencies exist in your emergency preparedness program. These are addressed in
Appendix A, " Emergency Preparedness Deficiencies."
Further review of this emergency preparedness appraisal also indicates that there
are other areas that should be evaluated and considered for improvement in your
emergency preparedness program. These areas are discussed in Appendix B,
" Preparedness Improvement Items."
Several areas in your emergency preparedness program were not complete at the
time of this appraisal and, therefore, were not evaluated. These areas are
listed in Appendix C.
These will be examined upon complete implementation of the
areas invcived.
