PURPOSES
~
t This document provides guidance for the conduct of the 1984 Nu-clear Regulatory Commission (NRC) observed radiological emergen-cy exercise at the James A.
FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP).
It shall be used by JAFNPP and by all participating Federal, State and local agencies.
t The scope of this exercise, with some exceptions, will endeavor to demonstrate by actual performance a number of primary emer-gency preparedness functions.
At no time will the exercise be permitted to interfere with the safe operation of JAFNPP, and the plant management may, at their discretion, suspend the ex-ercise for any period of time necessary to ensure this goal.
This exercise will include the appropriate notification to the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station (NMPNS).
Active participation j
by the NMPNS organizations is not expected.
This exercise will include the appropriate notifications to Oswego County and New York State.
Participation by these organ-izations is expected.
