I.
Scope;
' To assure that. the health and safety of 'the general public is protected e
in s the event of an: accident. at the Hatch ' Nuclear Plant (HNP) it is; necessary, for the Georgia Power Company- (GPC) to ' conduct an annual
- emergency preparedness exercise.
The 1987 exercise at HNP involves
. mobilization of GPC. personnel and resources to respond to a simulated accidenti The exercise will he evaluated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) so : that the emergency response capabilities of the utility may be assessed.
Due to' the compressed timeline, some portions of the GPC emergency organization may be repositioned.
Onsite facilities will be activated-in accordance.. with-simulated conditions and appropriate emergency-
-response procedures.
Exercise
" players". will. not have any prior knowledge of 'the simulated accident, operational sequence, radiological plume release.or weather conditions.
A radiological medical emergency will be integrated into the operational and radiological scenario in order to evaluate the ability of the GPC plant staff to effectively respond to a contaminated / injured individual.
L The medical emergency will also test the ability of the designated hospital and emergency medical service to treat a contaminated / injured -
patient.
r State-and local governments will participate fully.
Therefore, the
. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will be evaluating the exercise.
In addition, a semi-annual health physics drill, radiological monitoring drill,- communication
- drill, and a
fire response drill will be incorporated into the exercise scenario and conducted concurrently with the exercise.
The overall intent of the exercise is to demonstrate that GPC staff assigned responsibilities in an emergency situation are adequately trained to perform in accordance with Emergency Preparedness Plans and Procedures.
