(Beaver County, PA) Beaver County and its municipal emergency services partners took part Tuesday in a biennial FEMA-evaluated exercise at the Beaver Valley Power Station. 

Officials said the mandatory drill is designed to test preparedness and coordination among agencies that would respond to a radiological emergency at the nuclear facility. 

The exercise is part of a regular federal review process to ensure emergency response teams remain prepared for potential incidents.
