Dear Mr. Dumas:
.Thank you for taking the time to visit with me and my staff last week. As we
. discussed, I have the responsibility to prepare the Federal Emergency Manage-ment Agency's Review and Evaluation of the Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities. Our discussions were to determine the status of the American Red
[
Cross (ARC)-in preparedness and response for a radiological emergency at the Seabrook commercial nuclear power plant. Following is a brief summary of,the
' issues we.discusued:
The ARC has notified the New Hampshire Yankee organization, letter i-dated September 10, 1987, that the ARC will respond to a radiological emergency at the Seabrook nuclear power plant.
The ARC has indicated that they will not participate in the preparedness (planning) process of New Hampshire Yankee for the Massachusetts Communities. Therefore, the ARC should be considered a nonparticipating organization by FEMA in our review and evaluation process.
In an emergency at the Seabrook nuclear power plant, the ARC would provide staff equipment, supplies, and food service for the Congregate Care Centers identified by New Hampshire Yankee. ARC's response would Anclude a Shelter Manager, personnel to provide nursing service, food service, individualized assistance and counseling services, etc. The ARC would provide equipment (blankets, cots, chairs, brooms, drinking cups, etc.), shelter supplies (cleaning items such as soap, towels, toilet paper),
office supplies (paper, cards, disaster forms, telephone), health and medical supplies, and equipment and food supplies for disaster feeding.
