Dear Mr. Martin:

Enclosed are the objectives for the Rancho Seco 1988 Annual Exercise.

This submittal is in conformance with the 75-day guidance provided in IE Information Notice No. 85-55. As part of the 1988 five-year objective matrix Rancho Seco will be conducting an unannounced Exercise. Due to the potential logistical problems this may create, the 75-day submittal is being provided to the regional regulatory agencies in advance of the required due date.

1988 is the year for biennial county participation in the Annual Exercise. County participation in 1988 will include activation of their Emergency Operations Facilities, Field Command Posts, and participation of their Emergency Operations Facility Representatives. Amador and San Joaquin Counties will demonstrate the adequacy of procedures for operation of their Emergency Reception Centers.

State involvement in this year's Annual Exercise will only involve State response to the Emergency Operations Facility. There will be no evaluated involvement af the State Operations Center.

Your timely review of the enclosed 1988 Annual Exercise Objectives will' greatly enhance the Rancho Seco Exercise Development Group in meeting the numerous objectives slated for the demonstration in 1988.
