SUBJECT:

REPORTS 50-237/97014(DRS); 50-249/97014(DRS)

Dear Mr. Perry:

On August 22,1997, the NRC completed an inspection of your emergency preparedness

biennial exercise at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station. The purpose of the inspection was to

evaluate tne performance of the emergency response organization and review previous

emergency preparedness open items. The enclosed report presents the results of that

inspection.

Areas examined within your emergency preparedness exercise performance are identified in

i

the report. Within those areas, the inspection consisted of a selective examination of

}

procedures and representative records, observation of performance, and interviews with staff.

!

The objective of the insrsection effort was to determine whether activities authorized by the

license were conducted safely and in accordance with NRC requirements. Based on the results

.

of this inspection, no violations of NRC requirements 3 .re identified.

Control Room Simulator crew performance was professional and demonstrated effective

response to the emergency conditions. Communications by the crew were crisp and efficient.

The Technical Support Center performance was marked by strong command and control by the

Station Director. The Operations Support Center staff performance exhibited some minor

problems with facility briefings and the plant public address system. The Corporate Emergency

Operations Facility personnel demonstrated good know; edge of their emergency duties and

provided a smooth transfer of command and control to the facility,

in summaty, the emergency response activities observed during this inspection were effectively

implemented. Simulated events were accurately diagnosed, proper mitigation actions were

performed, and offsite agencies were notified in a timely manner. Interfacility transfers of

command and control of event response were orderly and timely.
