MEMORANDUM FOR: Docket File, LACBWR 50-409
THRU: William Snell, Chief, Emergency Preparedness Section
FROM: James E. Foster, Senior Emergency Preparedness Analyst
SUBJECT: MEETING AT DAIRYLAND POWER COOPEPATIVE ON MARCH 4, 1987
On March 4,1987, Wayne Shafer, William Snell and I ret with representatives of
DairylaM Pcwer Cooperative at their headquarters in Lacrosse, Wisconsin, to
discuss corrective ections for the problems observed in their last en.ergency
preparedness exercise. A list of the attendees is enclosed. Prior to the
meeting, we visited the plant site, talked to the Resident Inspector, toured
the plant, and held informal discussions with the licensee Emergency
Preparedness Coordinator and Plant Manager.
Licensee personnel provided a listing of items developed from a review of the
most recent emergency exercise report (50-409/86011(DRSS)). This listing
(enclosed) included not only those problems characterized as Open Items, but
any item where irprovement was needed. Corrective actions for these items were
discussed.
Licensee personnel were aware that a number of the problems were viewed not
from the standpoint of their relative significance, but from the standpoint
that they represented problems which had gone lere uncorrected. They were also
2
aware that two areas, that of comunication, and training in the area of Health
,
Physics, were the primary areas of concern.
4
Corrective actions in the area of comunications included the ac'dition of an ;
'
"open line" which will provide three-way communications between the states of '
Wisconsin and Minnesota, and the Emergency Operations Facility. ;
Corrective actions in the area of Health Physics included a new Health Physics
training program, reportedly in place.
