Laura Dudes, Regional Administrator - RII US Nuclear Regulatory Commission One Marquis Tower 245 Peachtree Center.Avenue, Suite 1200 Atlanta, Georgia 30303
Dear Ms. Dudes:
MAR O 9 2020 Department of Homeland Security Region IV 3003 Chamblee-Tucker Road Atlanta, Georgia 30341 FEMA Enclosed is a copy of the final exercise report for the June 26, 2019, full participation plume phase exercise of the offsite radiological emergency response plans site-specific to the Browns Ferry Nuclear Power Plant.
The report addresses the evaluation of the plans and preparedness for the State of Alabama; Lauderdale, Lawrence, Limestone, and Morgan Counties within the 10-mile emergency planning zone and Madison County, a host county.
This successful exercise demonstrated the State of Alabama and affected counties' commitment to public health and safety. Federal evaluators did not identify any level 1 or level 2 findings during the exercise.
FEMA Region N Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program staff prepared the report.
Based on the results of this exercise and FEMA's review of the State's annual letter of certification for 2018, the off site radiological.emergency response plans for the State of Alabama and affected local jurisdictions site-specific to the Browns Ferry Nuclear Power Plant can be implemented. They are adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken off site to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency at the site. Therefore, the Title 44 CFR, Part 350 approval of the State of Alabama's offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness site-specific to the Browns Ferry Nuclear Power Plant granted on July 6, 1990 will remain in effect.
Should you have any questions, please contact Randall L. Hecht at 770/220-3147.
Sincerely, Gracia B. Szczech
