Title	Offsite Notification Following Communication Error During Emergency Plan Drill
Event Description	On December 9, 2003, at 1900 hours0.022 days <br />0.528 hours <br />0.00314 weeks <br />7.2295e-4 months <br />, an unannounced emergency planning staff augmentation drill was initiated via a staff augmentation vendor. An incorrect message was inadvertently sent out. The message described a chemical spill and advised people to take shelter. The message did not indicate that there was an emergency at Palisades. It named a chemical plant in another town. An attempt to send the correct message was made, and the same erroneous message was sent. The erroneous message was only sent to plant personnel, however, several responders who received the message called local agencies to find out more about the emergency described in the message. (Note there was NO actual emergency at Palisades or at a chemical plant.) Various agencies then called the plant to request information. Courtesy calls were made later to state and local agencies that might be affected to explain the error in the message. Information was also FAXed to the agencies so they could make further courtesy calls. The error was also discussed with local media, although no press release had been issued. There was no impact on plant operations. This report is not being made within the required time period. The original review for reportability was made before the outside agencies were notified, and the error was believed to be an internal communication error. The Senior Resident Inspector was notified of the communication error. Plant staff had not planned on discussing it with outside agencies. However, once subsequent discussions were initiated, it was not immediately recognized that the NRC should be notified. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
