FLORIDA POWER & LIGHTCOMPANY APR t 8 1085 L-85-158 Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Attention:
Mr. James R. Miller, Chief Operating Reactors Branch No. 3 Division of Licensing U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C. 20555
Dear Mr. Miller:
Re:
St. Lucie Unit No. 2 Docket No. 50-389 Environmental Protection P lan In accordance with Section 4.2.2 of the St. Lucie Unit 2 Environmental Protection Plan (Appendix B to Facility Operating Licensing NPF-I6), a study to evaluate and/or mitigate turtle entrapment at the intake structure was conducted.
On April I I, l984, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) hosted an Interagency Task Force Meeting to brief federal and state agencies on the results of the study.
In attendance at this meeting were representatives from National Marine Fisheries
- Service, NRC, Florida Department of Natural Resources, FPL and FPL's consultants.
A draft report of the study was provided to each attendee, and distributed to U.S. Environmental Protection
- Agency, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Florida Audubon Society, for review and comment.
Comments were received from National Marine Fisheries Service and Florida Audubon Society.
Attached is the final report which is submitted pursuant to Section 4.2.2 of the St. Lucie Unit 2 Environmental Protection Plan.
Based on the finding that an 80%
reduction of turtle entrapment cannot be projected using sound and/or light devices, it was recommended during the April I I, l984, meeting that FPL be allowed to remove entrapped turtles using netting techniques.
The National Marine Fisheries
- Service, the lead federal agency having jurisdiction over sea turtles while in the water, concurred with this recommendation.
Therefore, FPL will continue removal of entrapped turtles using netting techniques.
Very truly yours, J. W. Will',Jr.
