10-Mile Emergency
Planning Zone (EPZ)
[Zone
Map]
The NRC designates a 10 mile radius around the
FCNPS as the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). Most of the
EPZ is
within Washington County while other parts include Douglas County
and Iowa.
If an incident were to occur at FCNPS, it is
likely that only part of the EPZ would be affected. To help alert
the public and manage the response, the
EPZ is divided into
“Sub-Areas”. These sub areas are identifiable by geographic
boundaries.
All mailing addresses within the
EPZ are mailed an
emergency action folder annually. If you have any problem
determining which sub-area you live in contact Region 5/6 EM at
402-727-2785 |
