REGULATORY CONFERENCE and PRE-DECISIONAL ENFORCEMENT CONFERENCE WITH FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT FACILITY: TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR PLANT DOCKETS: 05000250, 05000251 DATE & TIME: Tuesday, February 21, 2012 - 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. (EST)

LOCATION: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission - Region II 245 Peachtree Center Avenue NE, Suite 1200 Atlanta, GA 30303 PURPOSE: The purpose of this joint Regulatory Conference and Pre-Decisional Enforcement Conference is to discuss two Apparent Violations associated with maintenance of the Technical Support Center. The first Apparent Violation has preliminarily been determined to be a White finding with low to moderate safety significance that may require additional NRC inspections. This Apparent Violation is also being considered for escalated enforcement action in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The second Apparent Violation is related to the failure to report a major loss of emergency assessment, offsite response, and offsite communication capability to the NRC when the Technical Support Center was not functional from December 4, 2010, to July 13, 2011. This Apparent Violation is being evaluated using the NRCs traditional enforcement process because it impacted NRCs ability to perform its regulatory function and is being considered for escalated enforcement action in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy.

The NRC's Policy Statement, "Enhancing Public Participation in NRC Meetings," effective May 28, 2002, applies to this meeting. The policy statement may be found on the NRC Web site, www.nrc.gov and contains information regarding conduct of NRC meetings.
