Response
Section A.9.2 of the VEGP Emergency Plan has been changed to provide this information.
The Radiation Emergency Coordinator is normally located in Atlanta and is on call 24-hours a day. When notified of an emergency at VEGP, he will base any recommendation to the Governor, or GEMA Director, upon the initial information provided by the plant when notifying GEMA.
He will give advice and direction to local authorities and may then proceed to the plant vicinity with the DNR emergency personnel and equipment.
In route he will maintain contact with local authorities via radio from either a DNR ground vehicle or helicopter.
Once in the vicinity he will direct continued response to the radiological offsite situation.
More specific duties of the Radiation Emergency Coordinator are described in the Georgia Radiological Emergency Plan, Base Plan, Sections VI.A.5 through VI.A.7, and VI.D, Subsections 1, 2, 3, and 6.
