'Daar-Mr.-Taylor:
Thec purpose-of this - letter is to. advise you - of the status 'of offsite radiological _ emergency preparedness'at the'Pilgria Nuclear Powe r-. Pla nt. -
As you_know, FEMA has' actively participated in the NRC-established Pilgrim Offsite Emergency Preparedness Task Force.
which focused primarily_on emergency preparedness issues raised at a public m'esting held in Plymouth, Massachusetts on September 6,
1990. The issues identified in the public meeting also encompassed the 6 issues-raised in the Self-Initiated Review.(SIR) produced by
- FEMA ~ in-1987-which found that --of f site - radiological. emergency -
planning-- and L preparedness were inadequate-to protect-the public health and safety in the-event of an-accident at-Pilgrim.-
As stated and documented.in the attached recommendation from our l
' Regional ~ Director. of FEMA Region I to me dated June 17, 1991, Esubstantial---improvements have occurred, which bring the issues l
-identified-in the SIR, either to resolution or-to a. stage which allows FEMA zto-now. conclude that the previous negative finding concerning the protection of the' public health and safety no longer L-applies -
i.
Therefore,- based on our review of the aforementioned-documentation, g
FEMA-finds that adequate protective measures can be taken-offsite
.to: protect-the-health and.safetylor the public in-the event of a j1 radiological. emergency. at this site.
FEMA will continue its review l
of updated plans and procedures _ obtained as a: result of these recent efforts and will keep your office advised of significant L
a s p e c t s 1. o f planning for the - = upcoming. exercise-in _ December at-l
- Pilgrim,; including the 5 areas _that warrant' attention prior to the exercise:-as-identified'inLSection 1.7-Summary of Findings of the Task Force report.
