| Title | Loss of Emergency Sirens Due to Loss of Electric Power |
| Event Description | At approximately 1030 EDT on April 27, 2011, [Sequoyah Nuclear Plant] received notification from TVAs Operations Duty Specialist that >30% of offsite sirens are not functional resulting in a 'major loss' of offsite [automatic] public notification [capabilities]. The loss of offsite sirens is due to loss of electrical power caused by severe thunderstorms and high winds in the area. Thirty five sirens are not functioning (32 sirens are considered 30%). Efforts are in place to restore offsite sirens to service.
At 1044 EDT on April 27, 2011, power was restored to 2 offsite sirens leaving 33 offsite sirens not functional. At 1050 EDT on April 27, 2011, TVA's Operations Duty Specialist made a notification to Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) and Hamilton County Emergency Response. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
