B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NO. 2 DOCKET NO. 50-261 / RENEWED LICENSE NO. DPR-23 BIENNIAL DECOMMISSIONING FUNDING STATUS REPORT Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.75(f)(1), Carolina Power & Light Company, now doing business as Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc., and Florida Power Corporation, now doing business as Progress Energy Florida, Inc., submit this biennial status report for funding the decommissioning of each reactor listed above.The specific information required by 10 CFR 50.75(f)(1) is listed on Attachments 1 through 5.Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.75(e)(1)(ii), Carolina Power & Light Company has authorization from the rate-setting authority of North Carolina to use a real rate of return greater than 2% for the North Carolina portion of the qualified decommissioning trust fund. In particular, the Public Staff of the North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC) reviewed the 2009 Decommissioning Cost and Funding Report filed on July 14, 2010, which indicated a projected net-of-tax rate of return of 6.00% for the qualified decommissioning trust fund and a projected cost escalation rate of 3% (resulting in a real rate of return of 3%). The Public Staff subsequently filed a report to the NCUC on March 17, 2011, in which they stated, "The projected rates of return appear to be reasonable and appropriate for the 2009 Cost Studies." The NCUC issued an order on February 5, 2004, directing Carolina Power & Light Company to transition funds held in its internal reserve to the external nuclear decommissioning trust. This transition began in 2008, and as directed, the minimum annual transfer is 10% of the internal fund balance as of December 31, 2007. These transfers are shown on Attachments 1 -4.As of December 31, 2010, the total assets in the Carolina Power & Light Company qualified decommissioning trust funds were approximately allocated as 57%, 31%, and 12% in Domestic Equity, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission RA- 11-004 Page 2 Fixed Income, and International Equity, respectively.

As of December 31, 2010, the total assets in the Carolina Power & Light Company non-qualified decommissioning trust funds were approximately allocated as 100% in Municipal Bonds.As of December 31, 2010, the total assets in the Florida Power Corporation qualified decommissioning trust funds were approximately allocated as 54%, 31%, and 14% in Domestic Equity, Fixed Income, and International Equity, respectively.

As of December 31, 2010, the total assets in the Florida Power Corporation non-qualified decommissioning trust funds were approximately allocated as 100.0% in Municipal Bonds.This document contains no new regulatory commitment.

As a convenience to the NRC, the biennial status report from the North Carolina Eastern Municipal Power Agency (NCEMPA) is enclosed for funding the decommissioning of the reactors, which are identified in Attachments 2, 3, and 4. However, neither co-owner assumes any responsibility for the information contained in the other's report.Also enclosed, as a convenience to the NRC, is the status report from each co-owner for funding the decommissioning of the reactor identified in Attachment

5. However, none of the co-owners assumes any responsibility for the information contained in any other co-owner's report.Please contact me at (919) 546-5357 if you need additional information concerning this report.Sincerely, Donna Alexander Interim Manager -Nuclear Regulatory Affairs DBM United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission RA- 11-004 Page 3 Attachments:
