Dear Mr. Keppler:
In keeping with the established submission schedule for review of the Emergency Preparedness Exercise Scope & Objectives, Toledo Edison Company is providing the attached Scope (Attachment 1) and Objectives (Attachment
- 2) for a planned July 31, 1984 small-scale exercise at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1.
Pursuant to Toledo Edison's exemption request dated April 11, 1984, (Serial No. 1037), the State and local authorities will not participate in this exercise.
In order to maintain the required exercise schedule, Toledo Edison Company requests that any comments on the scope and objectives be made to the Toledo Edison Company no later than May 31, 1984. This will help to ensure that the final scenario will thoroughly address each objective in a realistic manner.
Comments on the scope and objectives should be forwarded to:
Ms. Judith Hirsch Emergency Planning Supervisor Toledo Edison Company 300 Madison Avenue, Stop 3060 Toledo, Ohio 43652 (419)259-2377 Very truly yours, ff

Dackst No. 50-346 License No. NPF-3 Serial No. 1-426 May_11, 1984 SCOPE The 1984 Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Annual Exercise will be a small-scale exercise and thus, limited in scope.
It will simulate an incident at the Davis-Besse Station that escalates from an Unusual Event to a General Emergency classification.
Planned responses include emergency classification, assessment actions, notifications / emergency communications, simulated corrective actions, and the determination and initiation of necessary protective actions.
The incident will then de-escalate from an emergency status and the re-covery phase will be initiated, to a limited degree, before the exercise is terminated.
The scenario will be written so as to meet the Emergency Plan requirements for (1) an exercise starting between 6:00 P. M. and Midnight, (2) the annual medical drill, (3) a semi-annual augmentation drill,- (4) the annual Post Accident Sampling System Health Physics drill, (5) a semi-annual Health Physics drill for Radiation Monitoring Team members,'and (6) the annual
. Radiation Monitoring Team communications test.
No involvement by State and local authorities will occur, however, partial response will be provided from local volunteer emergency medical team and fire team squads and an area hospital.
