Nelson Grace, Regional Administrator United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission 101 Marietta Street, NW Atlanta, GA 30303 BRUNSWICK STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NOS.1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-325 & 50-324/ LICENSE NOS. DPR-71 & DPR-62 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS EXERCISE
Dear Dr. Grace:
This letter transmits the scope and objectives of the forthcoming Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Unit Nos. I and 2 (BSEP) Annual Emergency Preparedness Exercise. The exercise is currently scheduled to commence on December 10,1986. The information included in this submittal supersedes that submitted on May 23,1986 (NLS-86-183). A complete exercise scenario with controller information and simulation data will be j
submitted no later than 45 days prior to the start of the exercise.
The exercise will consist of a simulated accident at BSEP, which could escalate to a General Emergency. Carolina Power & Light Company emergency response actions will include: emergency classification; notification of of f-site organizations and plant personnel; actions to correct the emergency conditions; and initiation of accident assessment and protective actions as necessary to cope with the accident. The exercise will simulate an emergency that results in off-site radiological release.
The objectives of this exercise are delineated in the accompanying attachment.
Questions regarding this subject should be referred to Mr. R. G. Black, Jr. at (919) 836-6194.
Yours very truly, 8610150196 860926~'
