October 29, 2007 EN 07-061 OFFICE OF ENFORCEMENT NOTIFICATION OF SIGNIFICANT ENFORCEMENT ACTION Licensee: Florida Power & Light EA-07-138 Turkey Point Nuclear Plant EA-07-256 Docket Nos. 50-250 and 50-251

Subject:

LETTERS TRANSMITTING APPARENT VIOLATIONS (PUBLICLY AVAILABLE)

This is to inform the Commission that a publicly available letter will be sent to Florida Power and Light (FPL) on Tuesday, October 30, 2007, advising FPL that the NRC has become aware of apparent violations of regulatory requirements at its Turkey Point Nuclear Plant, as a result of an investigation conducted by the NRC Office of Investigation. Specifically, the letter will provide FPL with information that the investigation substantiated that security officers were willfully inattentive to duty, or served as lookouts such that other security officers could be inattentive while on duty. These actions caused FPL to be apparent violation of 10 CFR 73.55(f)(1) because these inattentive officers were not capable of maintaining continuous communication with an individual in each continuously manned alarm station as required. A companion letter will be sent to the Wackenhut Corporation as well.

It should be noted that neither the licensee or the Wackenhut Corporation have been specifically informed of this action.

The schedule for the issuance of the letters is:

Mailing of the letters October, 30, 2007 Telephone Notification to the Licensee and Wackenhut October, 30, 2007 Contacts: Michael Burrell OE, 415-2740; Nick Hilton OE, 415-3055 1
