As stated in PSC's response to the 1986 SALP Report, PSC was to provide the NRC with a plan for implementation of necessary emergency preparadness modifications.
However, since NRC, Region IV provided the services of Mr. Gene Bates to PSC, the plan was formulated and discussed with him directly.
PSC wishes to again thank the NRC for making lir. Bates available as a resource during the ERF design review stage.
This letter an update on the status of emergency response facility (ERF)provides upgrades. The upgrades were initiated as part of the improvement project in the area of interface methods during emergency response.
The "co-location" concept presented by the NRC was incorporated into the forward Command Post (Emergency Operations Facility) and the Technical Support Center, as much as practical.
The following summarizes PSC enhancements to these two emergency response facilities.
