Turkey Point Annual Assessment Meeting Reactor Oversight Program - CY 2007 Nuclear Regulatory Commission - Region II Homestead, Florida April 11, 2008

Purpose of Todays Meeting A public forum for discussion of the licensees performance NRC will address the licensee performance as identified in the annual assessment letter Licensee 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 z Introduction z Review of Reactor Oversight Process z National Summary of Plant Performance z Discussion of Plant Performance Results z Licensee Response and Remarks z NRC Closing Remarks z Break z NRC available to address public questions

Region II Organization Victor McCree Acting Regional Administrator Charles Casto Acting Deputy Regional Administrator Joseph Shea Kriss Kennedy Director of Reactor Projects Director of Reactor Safety Harold Christensen Davis Ayres Deputy Director Acting Deputy Director Marvin Sykes Regional Specialists Branch Chief Turkey Point Resident Inspectors Project Engineers Scott Stewart - SRI Son Ninh Martha Barillas - RI Jeffrey Hammon

NRC Strategic Goals z Safety: Ensure adequate protection of public health and safety and the environment z Security: Ensure adequate protection in the secure use and management of radioactive materials

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

Significance Threshold Performance Indicators Green: Only Baseline Inspection White: May increase NRC oversight Yellow: Requires more NRC oversight Red: Requires more NRC oversight Inspection Findings Green: Very Low safety issue White: Low to moderate safety issue Yellow: Substantial safety issue Red: High safety issue

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

Turkey Point Assessment Results (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2007) z Overall, Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 operated in a manner that preserved health and safety and fully met all cornerstone objectives.

Plant performance for Turkey Point Unit 3 was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC Action Matrix for the last two quarters of CY 2007 and within the Regulatory Response column for the first two quarters of CY 2007. No safety significant Findings or Performance Indicators were identified in 2007.

z A Supplemental Inspection for Unit 3 was conducted using Inspection Procedure (IP) 95001, Inspection for One or Two White Inputs in a Strategic Performance Area, to evaluate actions from a loss of decay heat removal event that occurred in 2006. No additional findings of significance were identified and the White finding was resolved.

Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue in Problem Identification and Resolution (PI&R)

Identified in mid-cycle 2006 assessment.

Focused inspection in December 2007 noted some improvements. Some important corrective actions had not been fully implemented.

Green findings with cross-cutting aspect in PI&R demonstrate underlying weakness that requires continued management involvement.

Cross-cutting issue remains open. An independent assessment of your corrective actions is requested.

Turkey Point Annual Assessment Summary January 1 - December 31, 2007 z FPL operated Turkey Points Units 3 & 4 in a manner that preserved public health and safety.

z All cornerstone objectives were met. Substantive cross-cutting issue in Problem Identification and Resolution will remain open and licensee action is requested.

z NRC plans baseline inspections at TP for the remainder of the assessment period. An additional problem identification and resolution inspection was conducted in March 2008 and no findings were identified. A baseline PI&R inspection will be conducted in June 2008.
