i to respond to en emergency and to augment this initial response i

on a continuous basis described in your response to Question 22 above meet planning standard 10 C.F.R. , Section 50.47(b)(1)?

\ a A. Yes. The basic planning of the jurisdictions, coupled with the State and local mutual ai,d agreements, and Federal support through the FEMA' Organization provide the necessary response capability. l 4

.. 8/24/81 Q.24 With respect to Contention 2.G, have you examined radiological emergency response training that has been provided to offsite response personnel who may be called on to assist in an emergency?

A. Yes. Training has been reviewed under NUREG 0654/ FEMA REP-1, Rev. 1, standard 0 and.said standard applied to response plans.

e Training provided to response personnel has been limited. Addi-tional training has been identified as being needed. Local juris-

- dictipns have teams identified who have had training given by the State such as the RDO, RDIW, and RM courses and associated courses, provided by county offices. Medical radiological courses were presented by the utility. Additional training is felt necessary.

to improve proficiency and expand on the specific techniques of power plant field monitoring and ingestion pathway sampling, as well as the provision of basic radiation concepts training to all parti-cipants. Training plans and procedures are being developed at this time as a result of the exercise evaluation findings.

Q.25 Does the radiological emergency response training of offsite personnel which you have described in your response to Question 24 above meet planning standard 10 C.F.R., Section 50.47(b)(15)?

A. To some degree. Reference informal plan review and exercise evaluation findings documcuts cited in Question 10 above. Addi-

A. Generally speaking, yes. Some equipment is presently not on hanu

(

which would enhance the response capability of the local jurisdic-tions. SOP's cre being developed to address procedures for response.

Q.28 With respect to Contention 2.I, have youcxamined the physical design, communications equipment and operating procedure for interim Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)?

A. The facilities of the interim EOF were examined relative to NUREG 0654/ FEMA REP-1, Rev. 1. The permanent offsite EOF has not been established at this time. An interim facility at the San C1cmente City EOF is currently being used for the EOF. The design, equipment and procedures are being reviewed and updated as a rekult of an exercise; as of May 13. They reflected a shortfall

, from perceived requirements.
