Dear Mr. Martin:

This letter is to request a review of the attached Letter of Agreement to determine if it continues to represent the current policy on the role of the NRC during a radiological emergency. A written response is requested for documentation purposes.

This request is the result of a review of Letters of Agreement contained in the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS) Radiological Dnergency Response Plan (RERP) which is currently being conducted. This review is to ensure that the RERP continues to contain current written agreements with federal, state and local agencies and other support organizations having an emergency response role within the Dnergency Planning Zone.

If you have any questions concerning this request, please contact me or Mr.

O. L. Maynard of my staff.

Very truly yours,

Mr. Glenn L. Koester Vice President - Operations

• Kansas Gas and Electric Company P.O. Box 208 Wichita, Kansas 67201

Dear Mr. Koester:

2 1s letter is in reply to your letter of November 7, 1979, where you requested that Region IV state as to what NRC personnel and resources would be available during a radiation emergency at Wolf Creek. The NRC role during an emergency has been under review since the DfI incident and changes in policy may occur, however, our present policy can be stated as follows:

"Be role of the NRC during a radiation emergency is that of conducting investigative activities associated with the incident, verifying that emergency plans and procedures have been implemented, and assuring that the public health and safety are protected. The NRC will assist in coordination of Federal response resources and provide to state and local agencies advisory assistance assosciated with investigating and assessing hazards to the public." .

If you have questions with regard to this policy, please contact us.

Sincerely r1 . Seyfrit ;_.
