Mr. J. E. Gagliardo, Chief j
Reactor Projects Branch uJ U.S. NRC Region IV 611 Ryan Plaza Drive, Suite 1000 Arlington, TX 76011
Subject:
Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS) Alert and Notification System (ANS)
Interim Compensatory Measures.
Reference:
Letter to J. M. Pilant from J. E. Gagliardo dated April 17,1986, (Received May 5,1986), Same Subject.
Dear Mr. Gagliardo:
Pursuant to the referenced letter, Nebraska Public Power District is submitting the requested information concerning alerting and notification of the transient population on the Missouri River.
Nebraska Public Power District feels that assessment of our particular Alert and Notification System (ANS) is not practical at this time without first evaluating the results of FEMA's review of the ANS Design Report (submitted May,1985) and the results of the ANS test conducted October 17, 1985.
Ilowever, in an effort to eliminate any concerns, and until FEMA's report can be evaluated to determine the overall impact on our current ANS methodology, Nebraska Public Power District will seek to place the following alerting procedures into effect.
Alert Procedure l
In the event of an emergency at CNS, security cameras are available to scan the river for a distaace of approximately 0-2 miles up or downstream.
These I
cameras have the capability to monitor the river on a 24-hour basis.
This type of observation is currently called for in procedure at the alert classification.
If individuals are sighted, security personnel, or other emergency workers can be dispatched to alert these individuals within about 15 minutes.
The Atchison County Missouri Sheriff will alert and notify the transient population on the Missouri River from 0-5 miles. This will be accomplished by mobile alerting at public access areas on the river in the State of Missouri.
Following the sounding of the siren, a short verbal message of instruction will be transmitted over the public address system.
A letter of agreement currently exists between. Nebraska Public Power District and the Atchison County Sheriff to cover these actions.
The combination of current fixed siren coverage (Brownville, NE, and Nemaha, NE vicinities), use of CNS security surveillance equipment, and the l
response by the Atchison County Sheriff would cover practically all of the 0-5 mile zone along the river.

Mr. J. E. G gli:rdo June 2,1986 Prge 2 Cox Aviation of Tarkio, MO, will alert and notify the transient population on the Missouri River in Sectors A and R from 5-10 miles.
Primary and backup pilots have been arranged to meet this contingency.
A letter of agreement between Cox Aviation and the Missouri Emergency Management Agency has been negotiated and signed concerning this issue.
NPPD is currently negotiating a letter of agreement between the United States Air Force and Falls City Civil Air Patrol that would provide alert and notification to persons on the Missouri River in Sectors G and 11 from 5-10 miles.
Projected date of completion for this area of concern is expected to be August 1,1986.
During our meeting with the States and FEMA on May 21, 1986, it was agreed that notification signs are needed.
These signs are to be placed at all public access points and at the 10-mile EPZ boundaries on the Missouri River.
A schedule for completion of this project is listed below.
Estimated Date Sign Installation of Completion PubHe Access Areas September 1,1986 EPZ Boundary January 1,1987 Should you have any questions or comments concerning this matter, please contact me.
Sincerely, k
