There is a need for stronger Federal assistance to States for radiation emergency response planning. This report discusses the status of State radiation emergency response plans and the improvements needed in the Federal interagency effort to get State and local governments to improve their plans. Since 1973 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has led a Federal interagency effort in assisting States to develop radiation emergency plans for incidents at nuclear facilities and accidents involving transportation of radioactive materials. In an evaluation of State radiation emergency plans, NRC found that most of the States had the following problems: poorly developed relationship to general State emergency plans; vague concept of operations; fragmented organization; inadequate provisions for accident assessment, protective response, and medical support; not integrated with plans of contiguous States; and unclear relationship between State and local plans. GAO reviewed four State plans that disclosed several areas requiring more attention: inadequate training of State and local officials involved in radiation emergency activities; inadequate testing of plans by the States, although State officials acknowledged the need for comprehensive testing; and weak coordination between State and local assist agencies in defining authority and responsibility.

In response to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) policies and practices for coordinating emergency planning for nuclear weapon accidents with states and localities. GAO found that: (1) although the Air Force coordinates its emergency planning for all types of disasters, the Army and Navy generally exclude state and local governments from coordinated planning efforts for national security reasons; (2) some state and local emergency preparedness officials desire more communication with Army and Navy installations in emergency planning; (3) a national nuclear weapon accident exercise showed a need for more coordination because of the complexities involved in responding to such accidents and the hazards of radioactive contamination; (4) the services and civilian authorities coordinate emergency planning for other disasters; and (5) the Army and Navy could achieve emergency planning with states and localities for accidents involving nuclear weapons without violating DOD security policies.
