"This notification is for San Onofre Units 1, 2, and 3 and is being made in accordance with 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(vi) for an event related to the public health and safety for which a news release is planned or notification to other government agencies has been or will be made. Southern California Edison (SCE) is providing this information to the NRC due to possible questions the NRC may receive from the public."
"On September 29, 1999, at 1019 PDT, SCE initiated a test of the offsite sirens. All local residents, businesses, and schools were notified of the test beforehand. At about 1025 PDT, SCE was notified that a local cable [television] station had broadcast an actual emergency evacuation message to local residents. That erroneous message has been corrected, and all local media outlets have been notified not to pick up the incorrect report."
"[... ] At the time of this occurrence, Unit 1 remained permanently defueled, and Units 2 and 3 were operating at about full power."
The licensee stated that the cause of the erroneous message is currently under investigation. The licensee also stated that the site received a couple of calls from members of the public and that 911 received over 100 calls as well.
The licensee notified the NRC resident inspectors, the emergency preparedness staff at NRC Region 4, and the NRC NRR project manager for San Onofre Units 2 and 3 (L. Raghaven). NRC Region 4 plans to notify the State of California and the applicable Federal Emergency Management Agency's regional office (FEMA Region 9).
