UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION II 245 PEACHTREE CENTER AVENUE NE, SUITE 1200 ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303-1257 February 5, 2014 Mr. Mano Nazar Executive Vice President 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 week of March 24 - 28, 2014, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at the St. Lucie site (NRC Inspection Procedures (IPs) 71124.01 and 71124.08). In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this activity. The NRC requests that these documents be provided to the inspectors no later than March 7, 2014.

We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff, and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Don Cecchet of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection, or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Wade Loo, at 404-997-4727, or the Plant Support Branch 1 Chief, Brian Bonser, at 404-997-4653.

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 3150-0044, 3150-0014, 3150-0011, and 3150-0008. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement, unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

M. Nazar 2

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (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 Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Brian Bonser, Chief Plant Support Branch 1 Division of Reactor Safety Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 License Nos. DPR-67 and NPF-16

Wade Loo Senior Health Physicist US NRC Region II 404-997-4727 Wade.Loo@nrc.gov Note: The current version of these documents is expected unless specified otherwise.

Electronic media is preferred if readily available. [Note that the inspectors cannot accept data provided on USB or flash drives due to NRC IT security policies.] Please organize the information as it is arranged below to the extent possible. Experience has shown that a poorly organized CD leads to a less efficient inspection and places additional burden on licensee staff.

Pay particular attention to the date ranges for the items requested as they change from item to item. If there are questions regarding the documents requested, please do not hesitate to contact the lead inspector.

Miscellaneous

1. List of primary contacts for each inspection area w/phone numbers.

2. Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Chapters 11, Effluents/Radwaste; and Chapter 12 Radiation Protection.

3. Corrective action program procedure

4. Outage schedule of major activities (Gantt chart if available).
