Dear Mr. Taylor:
In accordance with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
Rule, Title 44 CFR, Part 350, the State of Ohio originally submitted the Ohio Plan for Response to Radiation Emergencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities, site-specific to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, to the Regional Director of FEMA Region V for review and approval on February 25, 1981.
During the review of the site-specific offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness, the FEMA Region V Regional Assistance Committee (RAC) identified several planning issues which required correction prior to a recommendation of formal plan approval under Title 44 CFR, Part 350.
Additionally, on August 15, 1986, Governor Celeste withdrew his March 24, 1986, implementation directive for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station offaite radiological emergency response plans.
Subsequent to Governor Celeste's withdrawal of his implementation directive, however, the Ohio Disaster Services Agency has boon actively participating in of f site radiological emergericy response planning and exercising and has addressed and corrected the offsite radiological emergency planning and preparedness problems at the Davis-Besso Nuclear Power Station that had been identified by the RAC.
u May 24, 1989, Governor Celeste, in accordance with the provisions of Section 350.7 of the FEMA Rule, transmi.tted the Ohio Plan for Response to Radiation Emergencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities, along with the plans for Ottawa and Lucas Counties, site-specific to the Davis-Besso Nuclear Power Station, to FEMA Region V for review and approval.
On August 30, 1989, the FEMA Regional Director forwarded to me his evaluation of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness along with a recommendation for approval, in accordance with Section 350.11 of the FEMA Rule.
Included in this evaluation was a review of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station offsite radiological emergency preparedness exercise conducted March 31, 1987, in accordance with Section 350.9 of the FEMA Rele, and a report of the Public Meeting conducted on April 30, 1987, in accordance with Section 350.10 of the FEMA Rule.
Based on an overall evaluation, I find and determine that the State and local radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the Davis-Besso Nuclear Power Station are 9104260165 910315 PDR ADOCK 05000346 F

- W adequate to protect the health and safety of the public living in I
the vicinity of the site. -The offsite radiological-emergency response plans and preparedness are assessed as adequate in that there is reasonable assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken ofisite in the event of a radiological

-previously approved by FEMA on September 14, 1987, in accordance-i with the criteria of NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1,.Rev.
1, Appendix 3, and FEMA REP-10, the " Guide for the Evaluation of Alert and Notification-Systems for Nuclear Power Plants."
