Abstract
The conceptual philosophy behind each of the Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) is presented. The roles, responsibilities, and authorities of personnel responding to emergencies from the ERFs and the intended use of the technical information made available by each of the emergency response facilities and systems are discussed. The Browns Ferry 3 partial scram incident and the Crystal River 3 instrumentation power supply failure are reviewed and the utilization of the ERFs during these incidents is discussed. These incidents were of relatively short duration and low complexity. The malfunctions from which they resulted, however, had the potential to cause much more serious events during which the full utilization of the ERFs could have provided a greatly enhanced emergency response capability.
