Dear Mr. Nelson:
Thank you for sending the white paper titled "Range of Protective Actions for Nuclear Power Incidents", that was attached to your letter dated May 19, 2004. We appreciate the industrys effort to clarify the range of early phase protective actions that may be used for nuclear power.
After reviewing the white paper, we note that it includes some discussion of sheltering as an alternative to evacuation, for special populations, and in the event there are impediments to evacuation.
We disagree with the paper recommendation that sheltering "may" or "should" be incorporated in the licensees range of protective actions. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10) requires that sheltering be considered in a licensees range of protective action recommendations (PARs). The staff has found that many emergency plans specifically state that the licensee will provide only evacuation as a PAR. Therefore, the staff is drafting a Regulatory Information Summary (RIS) to clarify the regulatory requirements in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10) to correct this misinterpretation.
