SUBJECT:
TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION AND
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Nazar
On December 10-14, 2012, the NRC will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at your
Plant Turkey Point site (NRC Inspection Procedures IP71124.01, IP71124.08 and 71151).
Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive for both the NRC inspectors
and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your on-site resources and to ensure a
productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this activity. It is
important that all of these documents are up to date and complete, thereby minimizing the
number of additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the onsite portions of
the inspection. The inspector has requested that the subject informational material be provided
in CD format on or before November 29, 2012.
We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand
that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Ms. Stavroula Mihalake 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) 997-4658 or the Chief of Plant Support
Branch 1, Brian Bonser at (404) 997-4653.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules 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).
This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection
requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control numbers
