What is the emergency plan for Vermont Yankee?
In the very unlikely event of an incident at Vermont Yankee, the plant staff will implement a federally mandated emergency response plan. That includes immediate notification of the public within a 10-mile radius of the plant through designated local radio stations that are part of the emergency alert system. State and local emergency management agencies would advise residents on what actions, if any, they should take in terms of sheltering or evacuation.
