UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 July 13, 2018 Mr. Mano Nazar President, Nuclear Division and Chief Nuclear Officer Florida Power & Light Company Mail Stop EX/JB 700 Universe Blvd.

Juno Beach, FL 33408

SUBJECT:

TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT NOS. 3 AND 4 -

SUMMARY

OF REGULATORY AUDIT IN SUPPORT OF LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST TO REVISE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TO ADDRESS NON-CONSERVATIVE ACTIONS FOR CONTAINMENT AND CONTROL ROOM VENTILATION FUNCTIONS (EPID L-2017-LLA-0425)

Dear Mr. Nazar:

By application dated December 21, 2017 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML17355A184), Florida Power & Light Company (the licensee) submitted a license amendment request (LAR) for Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 3 and 4. The proposed amendments would revise the Technical Specifications (TSs) pertaining to the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System instrumentation to resolve non-conservative actions associated with the Containment ventilation isolation and the Control Room ventilation isolation functions. In addition, the amendments would revise the Control Room ventilation isolation function to no longer credit Containment radiation monitoring instrumentation, eliminate redundant radiation monitoring instrumentation requirements, eliminate select core alterations applicability requirements, relocate radiation monitoring and Reactor Coolant System leakage detection requirements within the TS to align with their respective functions, and relocate the Spent Fuel Pool area monitoring requirements to licensee-controlled documents.

By letter dated June 5, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18136A828), the NRC staff issued its plan to conduct an audit in support of its review of the subject LAR. From May 23 through June 7, 2018, Ms. Kristy Bucholtz from the NRC's Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation conducted the audit via an online reference portal provided by the licensee. The purpose of the audit was to review the licensee's information referred to in the draft request for additional information (RAI) ARCB-RAl-3 issued May 4, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18135A383).

The NRC staff reviewed the following documents as part of its audit:

  • NAl-1396-012, Revision 4, "Turkey Point EPU [Extended Power Uprate] Fuel Handling Accident Radiological AST [Alternative Source Term] Analysis with High Burnup Fuel,"

dated June 12, 2017.

  • NAl-1396-027, Revision 4, "Turkey Point EPU RCCA [Rod Cluster Control Assembly]

Ejection Radiological Analysis with Alternative Source Term," dated June 12, 2017.

M. Nazar Based on its review of the documents above, the NRC staff confirmed that the non-docketed information support statements made in the LAR; however, it determined that the information included in the documents is not necessary to reach a safety conclusion on the application. As such, the NRC staff did not identify a need for any additional information beyond that requested in the RAI dated May 16, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18136A724).

If you have any questions, please contact me at (301) 415-6459 or Michael.Wentzel@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/j0v* . .
