U.S. Department of Homeland Security Washington, DC 20472 www.fema.gov November 17, 2022 Kathryn Brock, Director Division of Preparedness and Response Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C. 20555
Dear Ms. Brock:
This letter is to inform you that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has completed its Preliminary Capabilities Assessment (PCA) of the State of Florida and the local risk and host countys offsite response organizations continued capability to adequately respond to an incident at the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant in the aftermath of Hurricane Nicole.
On November 11, 2022, a comprehensive investigation and collection of field data was performed by FEMA Region 4, based on the review of all of this information, FEMA concludes that all community lifelines remain stable and offsite radiological emergency preparedness is adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency at St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant. The State of Florida and affected counties surrounding the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant maintain the ability to implement their emergency radiological plans as written. A formal Disaster Initiated Review is not recommended.
Please contact me at (202) 436-4847, if you have any questions or require any further assistance on this matter.
Sincerely, David Gudinas Director, Technological Hazards Division
