Based'on'thefresults of the. training session and tabletop demonstration, the two deficiencies identified during the June 17, 1986 Prairie Island

~

of . Nuclear Generating Plant exercise of offsite plans and preparedness have

-been corrected. Due to the early resolution of the deficiencies observed in this exercise, FEMA finds that they should not adversely affect the FEMA ,

approval of the Minnesota and. Wisconsin Offsite Radiological Emergency Pre-

~paredness Plans site specific to the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant under 44 CFR 350. 'Ihe newly established alerting procedures will be demonstrated again at the next biennial exercisc. .
