NRC CY2005 Annual Assessment Meeting CRYSTAL RIVER Crystal River, Florida April 11, 2006

Purpose of Todays Meeting

• A public forum for discussion of Crystal River performance

• NRC will address Crystal River performance issues identified in the annual assessment letter

• Crystal River management will be given the opportunity to respond to the information in the letter and inform the NRC of new or existing programs to maintain or improve their performance

Agenda

• Introduction

• Review of Reactor Oversight Process

• National Summary of Plant Performance

• Discussion of Crystal River Plant Performance Results

• Crystal River Management Response and Remarks

• NRC Closing Remarks

• Break

• NRC Available to Address Public Questions

Region II Organization William Travers Regional Administrator Loren Plisco Deputy Regional Administrator Charles Casto Victor McCree Director Division of Reactor Projects Director Division of Reactor Safety Joseph Shea Harold Christensen Deputy Director Deputy Director Joel Munday Regional Specialists Branch Chief Crystal River Project Engineers Resident Inspectors Son Ninh Tom Morrissey Roger Reyes

NRC Performance Goals PRIMARY GOALS Ensure protection of the public health and safety and the environment Ensure the secure use and management of radioactive materials OTHER GOALS

• Ensure openness in NRC regulatory process

• Ensure that NRC actions are effective, efficient, realistic, and timely

• Ensure excellence in NRC management to carry out the NRCs strategic objective

Reactor Oversight Process Strategic Performance Areas Safety Cornerstones Baseline Inspection Performance Indicator Results Results Significance Significance Threshold Threshold Action Matrix Regulatory Response

Examples of Baseline Inspections z Equipment Alignment ~80 hrs/yr z Triennial Fire Protection ~200 hrs every 3 yrs z Operator Response ~125 hrs/yr z Emergency Preparedness ~80 hrs/yr z Rad Release Controls ~110 hrs every 2 yrs z Worker Radiation Protection ~90 hrs/yr z Corrective Action Program ~250 hrs every 2 yrs z Corrective Action Case Reviews ~60 hrs/yr

Performance Thresholds Safety Significance Green: Very low safety issue White: Low-to-moderate safety issue Yellow: Substantial safety issue Red: High safety issue NRC Inspection Efforts Green: Only Baseline Inspections White: May increase NRC oversight Yellow: Increased NRC oversight Red: Increased NRC oversight and other NRC actions

Action Matrix Concept Licensee Regulatory Degraded Multiple/Rep. Unacceptable Response Response Cornerstone Degraded Performance Cornerstone Increasing Safety Significance Increasing NRC Inspection Efforts Increasing NRC/Licensee Management Involvement Increasing Regulatory Actions

Crystal River CY2005 Assessment Results

• Crystal River performance was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRCs Action Matrix for the first two quarters but transitioned to the Regulatory Response column in the third quarter.

• All Unit 3 inspection findings were classified as very low safety significance (Green) except for one white inspection finding in the Mitigating System Cornerstone (Fire Protection) originating in the third quarter.

• All performance indicators were Green

Crystal River White Finding One White inspection finding in the Mitigating System Cornerstone (Fire Protection) originating in the third quarter

• Unprotected Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Cables and Related Unfeasible Local Manual Operator Action

Crystal River Assessment Summary

• Progress Energy operated Crystal River in a manner that preserved public health and safety

• All cornerstone objectives were met

• NRC plans baseline inspections at Crystal River for the remainder of CY 2006

Crystal River CY2006 Scheduled Inspection Activities

• Resident inspector daily inspections

• Supplemental Inspection (95001 for Fire Protection White Finding in 3rd Qtr 2005)

• Licensed operator requalification program inspection

• Emergency preparedness inspection

• Problem identification and resolution inspection
