Subject:

Update on your 2.206 Petition re. Turkey Point Hi Mr. Saporito, The NRC's Petition Review Board (PRB) met to discuss your 2.206 petition and recommends to accept a portion of your petition for further review under the 2.206 process. Specifically, the PRB recommends to accept the portion of the petition related to the root cause of the increased cooling canal temperatures for further review under the 2.206 process. Because the NRC staff evaluated and reached resolution on the remaining portions of the petition, the PRB recommends not accepting the remaining portions of the petition for further review in the 2.206 process. For the reasons discussed in the NRC's safety evaluation for the amendments issued to Turkey Point on August 8, 2014, the PRB recommends not granting your request to maintain Turkey Point in a cold shutdown mode of operation.

As documented in Section 40A3.2 of NRC's Integrated Inspection Report No. 05000250(251)/2014004, dated October 23, 2014 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14296A129), the NRC staff opened an Unresolved Item that documents the staff's plans to inspect the licensee's root cause of the cooling canal conditions and associated corrective actions. The staff intends to complete its inspection activities by March 31, 2015, and issue its associated inspection report within 45 days of that date. After completion of the NRC's inspection activities and issuance of the associated report, the staff will determine the resolution of your 2.206 petition.

NRC's Management Directive 8.11 provides you the opportunity to comment on the PRB's recommendations via a meeting or teleconference. Please let me know if you wish to do so.
