SUBJECT:
Submission of the Exercise Report for the Evaluation of'the-Implementation of State and Local Radiological Dnergency Response Plans for the Callaway Euclear Power Plant.
In cocpliance with hk CFR Part '350 and your memo of August 5,1983 I
hereby submit three copies of the Exercise Report, dated July 22, 1985, for the evaluation of the implementation of State and Local Radiological Emergency Response plans for the Callavay Nuclear Power Plant exercise, June 5,1985, for your review and approval.
A Table of Contents is provided to assist in your review.
Further documentation and related materials are retained and may be requested from TD% Region VII, which is the office of record for this exercise evaluation.
'We wish to emphasize that although the off-site authorities failed to demonstrate the initial alert and notification within fifteen minutes, we have determined in this one instance, not to cite a Class' A deficiency.
We focused on the fact that the plant issued two separate messages to I
Callaway County announcing the Site Area Bnergency.
These messages contained information which was in conflict with the scenario and with each other. In addition, the first message vaa inconsistent within itself and the second came from a source outside of the communication chain.
A twelve minute delay ensued in the attempt to verify and correct the l
two messages.
We have noted the chronology of events (p. 19) vnich contributed to the delay.
We attribute this deficiency to the plant's Technical Support Center (TSC), (p. 32) rather than to Callavay County i
and as such wish this be brought to the attention of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission as a further observation of the on-site /off-site coordination and cr==mmication.
Therefore, with no Class A deficiencies noted, the exercise demonstrated that the off-site preparedness continues to be adequate to provide rer.sonable assurance that appropriate measures can be takene to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of the site in the event of a radiological emergency.
