Mr. Frank J. Congel Director, Division of Radiation Protection and Emergency Preparedness Office.of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C. 20555 4

Dear Mr. Congel:

Enclosed is a copy of the report for the Minnesota off-hours )

and unannounced drill conducted October 19, 1988, for the Monticello and Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plants. The State.of Minnesota and the Counties of Sherburne and Wright participated in this drill, site-specific to the Monticello l offsit2 area. The State of Minnesota also participated with the Counties of Dakota and Goodhue/ City of Red Wing for the 'l Prairie Island offsite area. The report was prepared by the-Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region V staff and transmitted to FEMA: Headquarters December 8, 1988. A required report revision November 14, 1989, was received at FEMA Headquarters November 20, 1989.

There-were no deficiencies observed during the drill.

However, one Area' Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) regarding a staffing activation inadequacy was identified at the Sherburae County. Emergency Operations Center. The 1

appropriate objective regarding the ARCA cited at the 1 0ctober 19, 1988, drill was demonstrated and the ARCA l corrected at the Monticello Nuclear Power Plant exercise l

, conducted July 26, 1989.

Based on our review of the final exercise report and the corrective actions, FEMA considers that offsite radiological j emergency preparedness is adequate to provide' reasonable I assurance that appropriate offsite measures can be taken to i protect the health'and safety of the public living in the j vicinity of the Monticello and Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plants in the event of a radiological emergency occurring at i either of those sites. Therefore, the approval of the Minnesota offsite plans for the Monticello and Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plants granted under 44 CFR 350 in May 1985~, and in September 1985, respectively, continues to be I in effect. )
