The

NRC Systematic

Assessment

of Licensee

Performance

(SALP) Board has completed

its periodic evaluation

of your Turkey Point

and St.

Lucie facilities.

These

facilities were evaluated for the period July 1,

1984 through October 31,

1984.

The results

of the evaluation

are

documented, in the enclosed.

SALP Board Reports

(Enclosures

1 and 2).

These reports will be. discussed

with you at your offices

in Miami, Florida

on February

15,

1985.

The performance

of your Turkey Point

and St.

Lucie facilities was

evaluated

in

the functional

areas

of plant operations,

radiological

controls,

maintenance,

surveillance,

fire protection,

emergency

preparedness,

security

and

safeguards,

refueling, quality programs

and administrative

controls affecting quality,

and

licensing activities.

The

overall

Florida

Power

and

Light

Company

performance

was

satisfactory.

Although

performance

at St.

Lucie continued

to

be excellent,

performance

at

Turkey Point declined.

As noted

by the

SALP Board,

management

attention

and involvement at your Turkey

Point facility require

improvement.

A major strength

was identified in the

area

of licensing activities.

Several

serious

performance

problems

were identified,

however.

These

included

weaknesses

in

the

areas

of

plant

operations,

radiological

controls,

maintenance,

and

quality

programs

and

admi ni strative

controls affecting quality.

The Board also identified problems

related

to poor

maintenance

practices

in

several

functional

areas.

Your major

commitment

of

resources

to the Turkey Point Performance

Enhancement

Program

and the

Program

for Improved

Performance

is recognized.

Because

these

programs

were initiated

late

in

the

SALP

assessment

period,

continued

high

levels

of

management

attention

should

be devoted

to ensuring

the

successful

implementation

of these

important initiatives.

The. level of performance of your St.

Lucie facility was evaluated

as high by the

SALP

Board.

It is

a credit

and reflection

upon

site

management

that

major

strengths

were

identified

in

the

areas

of plant

operations,

radiological

controls,

maintenance,

surveillance,

emergency

preparedness,

security

and

safeg'uards,

refueling,

and quality programs

and administrative controls affecting

quali ty.
