Another emergency drill is being planned at Point Beach Nuclear Plant.
Manitowoc County Emergency Services says the drill will be conducted July 10th through the 12th, which will be Monday through Wednesday of next week.
Numerous first responders and other agencies from the state of Wisconsin and the county will be participating.
During the drill, there will be a simulated evacuee Reception Center at the Manitowoc County Highway Shop, a simulated staging area at Two Creeks Fire Department, and a simulated incident command post at Point Beach Nuclear Plant.
Holy Family Memorial will also be participating.
County Emergency Services Director Kayla Beckerdite said, “It’s highly unlikely we will ever have to implement these procedures in our Emergency Operations Plan for a nuclear plant incident. However, participating in these drills makes us better prepared as a community to respond to a wide variety of disaster scenarios.”
