UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON. D. C. 20565 FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT COMPANY DOCKET NO. 50-251 TURKEY POINT PLANT, UNIT NO.
4 AMENDMENT. TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE Amendment No.
54 License No.
DPR-41 1.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has found that:
A.
The application for amendment by Florida Power and Light Company (the licensee) dated December 18,
- 1980, complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act) and the Coomission's rules and regulations set forth in 10 CFR Chapter I; B.
The -facility will operate in conformity with the applicati'on, the provisions of the Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission; C.
There is reasonable assurance
{i) that the activities authorized by this amendment can be conducted without endangering the health and safety of the public, and (ii) that such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission'.s regulations; D.
The issuance of this amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public; and E.
The issuance of this amendment. is in accordance viith 10 CFR Par<
51 of the Commission's regulations and all applicable requirements have been satisfied.
2.
Accordingly, paragraph 3.8 and 3.D. 1 of Faci'lity Operating License No.
DPR-41 are hereby amended and a new paragraph 3.D.7 is added to read as. follows:
(8)
Technical S ecifications e
ec n ca pec cation contained in Appendices A and B, as revised through Amendment No. 54, are hereby incorporated in the license.
The licensee shall operate the facility in accordance with the Technical Specifications.
(D)
Steam Generator 0 erati.on After operation ih Cycle 7 or six equivalent full power months from January 13, 1981, Turkey Point Unit 4 shall be brought to the cold shutdown condition and the steam generators shall be
inspected unless:
(1) an inspection of the steam generators is performed within this period as a result of the requirements in 2,
3 and 4 below, or (2) an acceptable analysis of the suscepti-bility for stress corrosion cracking of tubing is submitted to explicitly justify continued operation of Unit No.
4 beyond the authorized period of operation.
Any analysis justifying continued operation must be submittdd at least 45 days prior to the expiration date of the authorized period of operation.
For the purpose of this requirement, equivalent operation is defined as operation with the reactor coolant at a temperature greater than 350'.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval shall be obtained before resuming power operation following this inspection.
(7)
The licensee shall provide for staff review information concern-ing the tube wastage predicted to occur during the latter half of the operating period which begins January 13, 1981 and extends for six equivalent months of operation.
This information is to be supplied by February 28, 1981.

The licensee shall operate the facili.ty in accordance with the Technical Specifications.
C; This license is subject to the following conditions for the protection of the environment:
I (1)
The applicant shall pursue evaluations of alternatives to the proposed cooling channel system during construction, interim operation, and evaluation of the channel system.
These evaluations shall include at least the following:
(a)
Study of avatlabtlity af groundwater or other alternative sources of. surface water to use in the cooling system.'b)
Study of applicability of mechanical cooling devices, including powered spray modules and cooling towers.
(c)
Study of marine environmental, impacts of once-through cooling alternatives (described in Section X of the AEC Final Environmental Statement on Turkey Point Units 3 and 4, July 1972).
(2)
The applicant shall take appropriate corrective action on any adverse effects determined as a result of monitoring and study programs.
To the fullest extent practicable, the applicant shall utilize results.
of study programs in improving and modifying the operation of the facility and its cooling system so as to achieve a minimal adverse environmental impact.
D.
Steam Generator 0 eration (1)
After operation in Cycle 7 of six equivalent full power months from Janaury 13, 1981, Turkey Point Unit '4 shall be brought to the cold shutdown condition and the steam generators shall be inspected unless:
(1) an inspection of the steam generators is performed within this period as a result of the requirements in 2, 3 and 4 below, or (2) an acceptable analysis of the susceptibility for stress corrosion cracking of tubing is submitted to explicitly justify continued operation of Unit No.
4 beyond the authorized period of operation.
Any analysis justifying continued operation must be submitted at least 45 days prior to the expiration date of the authorized period of operation.
For the purpose of this requirement, equivalent operation is defined as operation with the reactor coolant at a temperature greater than 350'F.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval shall be obtained before resuming power operation following this inspection.

(41.
Reactor coolant to secondary leakage through the steam generator tubes shall be ljmited to 0.3 gpm per steam generator.
Nth a steam generator tube leakage greater than this limit, the reactor shall be brought to the cold shutdown condition within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
A full steam generator inspection shall be performed and NRC approval shall be obtained before resuming power operation following this inspection.
The concentration of radioiodine in the reactor coolant shall be limited to 1.0 microcurie/gram during normal operation and to.30 microcuries/gram during power transients.
Reactor operation sf~11 be terminated and NRC approval shall be obtained prior to resuming operation if primary to secondary leakage attributable to the denting phenomena is detected in
.2 or more tubes during any 20 day period.
(5)
,The Metal'mpact Monitoring System (MIMS} shal1 be contained in operation with the capability of detecting losse objects.
If the MIMS is out of service in other than cold shutdown or refueling mode of operation, this fact shall he reported to the NRC.
