The RMT section of the new 2017 EAS Handbook is vague for LP-1's regarding the section on RMTs on Page 10. Under the "Sending the RMT" section, my LP-1 station here generates its own RMTs, with the exception of a quarterly nuclear power plant test that originates from the SR, which I relay automatically, but this is the only RMT from them that I relay. Their other RMTs during the year are just logged. I suppose this would qualify my first response in this section as "This facility sometimes originates RMTs" even though we originate RMTs most of the time.
Under the "Receiving the RMT" section, since I only relay those quarterly nuclear plant tests automatically and log the rest, my answer doesn't fit neatly into either of the form's answers. I'm inclined to choose the 2nd option, and despite there being no operator intervention required, writing in the three lines of text field "Nothing. This facility is LP-1 for this market, and therefore only auto-relays quarterly nuclear plant test RMTs. Other RMTs are log-only."
Anyway, I'm just wondering how other LP-1's are handling this. Thanks a lot.
