Subject:
Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3 1998 Emergency Preparedness Exercise Objectives
Dear Sir / Madam:
This letter provides the objectives for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS), Units 2 and 3,1998 Emergency Preparedness Exercise. The exercise is scheduled to be conducted on November 17,1998. This exercise is a biennial full participation exercise which involves participation from offsite emergency response agencies. This information is being submitted 90 days prior to the scheduled exercise date in accordance with an NRC letter to PECO Energy Company dated August 9,1989, regarding the submittal of " Emergency Exercise Objectives and Scenario Guidelines."
The Emergency Preparedness Exercise objective information attached to this letter is of a confidential nature and is not for public disclosure. The August 9,1989 letter identifies which individuals should receive copies of the exercise objective information. However, based on discussions with NRC Region I representatives conceming the submittal of exercise objective and scenario information, the objectives for the PBAPS 1998 Emergency Preparedness Exercise will only be distributed to those individuals involved in evaluating this exercise.
Mr. Richard Z. Kinard, Manager, Emergency Preparedness has been designated as your interface for this emergency exercise. Please forward all future correspondence conceming this exercise to him at the address identified below.
PECO Nuclear Emergency Preparedness Section 175 North Caln Road Coatesville, PA 19320 If you have questions, please contact Mr. Kinard directly at (610) 380-2627.
