Dear Mr. Martin:

Enclosed are the organizational goals and objectives for REX '86, the on-site ANC exercise by AP&L and off-site exercise by State and local government.

April 2, 1986 has been selected as the exercise date. As additional information pertinent to meeting our exercise commitment is produced, it will be forwarded to you.

To discuss the exercise itself and ensure that we are complying with the required exercise objectives, we are formally requesting a meeting with both FEMA and NRC representatives. In the past, such meetings between Arkansas and Federal officials have occurred approximately 60 days prior to the exercise date. In order to adhere to this schedule, I would suggest that the REX '86 meeting be held sometime during the last two weeks of January.

Please contact me as soon as possible so a meeting place /date/ time that is con-venient for all parties can be established.

Sincerely.

- ggt
