Dear Sir:
On February 24, 2016, the NRC issued an Order to Duke Energy Florida, LLC (DEF) for Implementation of Additional Measures and Fingerprinting for Unescorted Access at the Crystal River Nuclear Generating Plant Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (Reference 1). of this document contained a requirement for DEF to respond within twenty days and clearly distinguish which method CR-3 intends to use to comply with the additional security measures (ASMs) described in Attachment 1, Additional Security Measures for Physical Protection of Dry ISFSIs and Attachment 2, Access Authorization and Fingerprinting for Unescorted Access Authorization and Fingerprinting at the CR-3 ISFSI.
On March 9, 2016, DEF responded stating that DEF is collocating the ISFSI within the Crystal River Unit 3 (CR-3) plant Protected Area, inside the existing 10 CFR 73.55 security perimeter.
Crystal River will comply with Section D of Attachment 1, Additional Security Measures for Physical Protection of Dry ISFSIs. Crystal River will achieve compliance with this section by January 31, 2017. In addition, the access authorization and fingerprinting process will remain the same as the program used for the operating plant. As such, Criteria 2 will be followed as an alternative means to satisfy the provisions of Sections B through G of Attachment 2, Access Authorization and Fingerprinting for Unescorted Access Authorization and Fingerprinting at the CR-3 ISFSI (Reference 2).
Due to circumstances, DEF is revising the date for the above stated action to be compliant with, Additional Security Measures for Physical Protection of Dry ISFSIs, from January 31, 2017 to February 22, 2017. DEF will still meet the requirements of the order to be fully compliant no later than 365 days from the date of the Order or 90 days before the first day that spent fuel is initially placed in the ISFSI, whichever occurs first.
No additional regulatory commitments are made in this submittal.
