SACE Hearing Request Attachment 3 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMIS SION BEFORE TIIE SECRETARY

)

In the Matter of )

Florida Power and Light Company ) Docket Nos. 50-250. 50-251-SLR Turkev Point Units 3 and4 )

I DECLARATION OF RICHARD REYNOLDS Under penalty of perjury, Richard Reynolds declares as follows:

1. My name is Richard Reynolds. I am a member of Southern Alliance for Clean Energy.

2.Ilive at 644I Marlin Drive, Coral Gables, Florida, 33158. My home lies within 16 miles of the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 nuclear power plant, for which Florida Power and Light Company

("FPL") has applied to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") for "subsequent renewal" of its operating license. I also own five other pieces of real estate property lying within 50 miles of Turkey Point Units 3 and 4. The NRC previously renewed the operating license for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 for an additional twenty-year term beyond its initial forty-year term, and the Unit 3 and 4licenses are now due to expire in2032 and2033, respectively. If the NRC grants FPL's subsequent license renewal ("SLR") application, the licenses would expire in2052 and2053, respectively. .j

3. Based on historical experience with nuclear power plants, I believe that these facilities are inherently dangerous. Continued operation of Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 for an additional twenty years beyond2032 and2033 could cause a severe accident in the reactor or spent fuel pools, thereby causing death, illness, dislocation and economic damage to me and my family. It could also cause devastating environmental damage.
4. I believe that FPL's SLR application for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 is inadequate to ensure protection of my health and safety or the environment. Therefore, I have authorized Southem Alliance for Clean Energy to represent my interests in this proceeding.
