UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION DOCKET NO. 50-251 FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT COMPANY NOTICE OF GRANTING OF RELIEF FROM ASME SECTION XI INSERVICE INSPECTION TESTING RE(}UIREtlENTS The U.

S.

Nuc'lear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted interim relief from certain requirements of the ASME Code,Section XI, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components" to Florida Power and Light Company, pending the Commission's completion of its detailed analysis of FPL's application for permanent relief.

The relief relates to the inservice inspection (testing) program for the Turkey Point Generating Station Unit No. 4 (the facility) located in Dade County, Florida.

The ASME Code requirements are incorporated by reference into the Commission's rules and regulations in 10 CFR Part 50.

The relief is effective as of its date of issuance.

The relief consists of excepting certain valves and pumps from being exercized or tested due to their design and their physical location, arrangements, aligment and orientation in the system or pumps and valves whose access may be restricted due to high radiation areas.

The r equest for relief complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Commission's rules and regulations.

The Commission has made appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the letter granting relief.

Prior public notice,-of this action was not required since the granting of this relief from ASME Code requirements does not involve a significant hazards consi derati o'.

The Commission has determined that the granting of this relief will not result in any significant environmental impact and that pursuant to 10 CFR s51.5(d)(4) an environmental impact statement or negative declaration and environmental impact appraisal need not be prepared in connection with this action.

For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the request for relief dated February 25,
