No it doesn't Semaphore.

Other ETOPS alternates exist. Such as Bangor, Bermuda, Shannon, Boston, Gander, Lajes, St Johns, etc. If you look at a North Atlantic Plotting chart with 1200nm range rings from each field you will see a considerable amount of overlap. I don't believe that ETOPS has ever been suspended due to no suitable alternates existing.
