UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION II SAM NUNN ATLANTA FEDERAL CENTER 61 FORSYTH STREET, SW, SUITE 23T85 ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303-8931 April 1, 2009 Mr. Mano Nazar Executive Vice President, Nuclear and Chief Nuclear Officer Florida Power and Light Company P.O. Box 14000 Juno Beach, FL 33408-0420
SUBJECT:
ST. LUCIE PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Nazar:
During the periods of April 27 - May 1, 2009, and May 11 - 15, 2009, the NRC will conduct baseline radiation safety inspection activities at your Plant St. Lucie site. The inspection will focus on the Occupational Radiation Safety Inspection cornerstone using NRC Inspection Procedure (IP) 71121.01, and IP 71121.02. In addition, solid radioactive waste processing and transportation activities which are part of the Public Radiation Safety Inspection Cornerstone will be inspected using IP 71122.02. Finally, the inspection will review the status of Performance Indicator data for both the Occupational and the Public Radiation Safety cornerstones using the applicable sections of IP 71151.
Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive both for the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your on-site resources and to conduct a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up to date and complete, in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the onsite portions of the inspection. The lead inspector has requested that the subject informational material be made available to the NRC staff by April 20, 2009, to allow preparation for the upcoming inspection We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Mr. D. Checcett of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, George B. Kuzo at (404) 562-4658.
FP&L 2 In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC=s ARules of Practice,@ a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/ reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,
/RA/
