SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For continued operation of nuclear power

and State and local governments' radiological emergency response plans.
In support of the Federal requirement for emergency response plans, 44
CFR 350, Review and Approval of State and Local Radiological Emergency
Plans and Preparedness, describes its procedures for review and
approval of State and local governments' radiological emergency
response plans. Pursuant to 44 CFR 350.7, Application by State for
Review and Approval, the State of Oregon submitted its Radiological
Emergency Plan for the State of Oregon and Affected Counties to the
Federal Emergency Management Agency, Region X Office, for review and
approval under 44 CFR part 350.
Included are radiological emergency response plans for local
governments that are wholly or partially within the plume exposure
pathway emergency planning zones of the WNP-2 Nuclear Power Plant. The
Manual covers:
(1) Oregon's WNP-2 Emergency Response Plan, dated December 1993,
(2) Oregon's Hanford Emergency Response Plan, and
(3) Guidelines the State of Oregon, Morrow County, and Umatilla
County will use to implement the plans in a WNP-2 and Hanford
emergency. Oregon is not requesting FEMA review of the Oregon Hanford
Plan section.
Copies of the Manual are available for review and copying at the
FEMA Region X Office, or they will be made available upon request in
accordance with the fee schedule for FEMA Freedom of Information Act
requests, as set out in subpart C of 44 CFR part 5. There are 510 pages
in this document; reproduction fees are $0.10 per page, payable with
the request for a copy.
44 CFR 350.10 also calls for a public meeting prior to approval of
the plans. This meeting will be held in accordance with 44 CFR 350.10
in Hermiston, Oregon, in advance of FEMA approval.
Dated: April 14, 1994.
Lloyd F. Hara,
Regional Director.
