State of Michigan Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan

Resumo

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is announcing the receipt of an application from the State of Michigan for the review and approval of the State's radiological emergency plan. For continued operation of nuclear power plants, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission requires approved licensee and State and local governments' radiological emergency response plans. Since FEMA has a responsibility for reviewing the State and local government off-site radiological emergency response plans, the State of Michigan has submitted its radiological emergency response plan to the FEMA Region 5 office. The State's application also included the radiological emergency response plans for Allegan, Berrien and Van Buren counties. These plans support Holtec International's Palisades Nuclear Generating Station located in Van Buren County, Michigan.
