St. Lucie Nuclear Plant Florida Power and Light Company Radiation Safety Baseline Inspection Initial Information Request Inspection Report: 2020-001 During the week of February 24 - 28, 2020, the NRC will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at St. Lucie Nuclear Plant (NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.01 and 71124.08).

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we are requesting in advance documents needed for this activity. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, thereby minimizing the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection. The NRC requests that these documents be provided to the inspectors no later than February 17, 2020.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Jonathan Rivera at 404-997-4646, or the Engineering Branch 3 Chief, Binoy Desai at 404-997-4519.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, a copy of this document will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room, or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS); accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT This document does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control numbers 3150-0008, 3150-0011, 3150-0014, 3150-0044, and 3150-0135.

Electronic media is preferred if readily available. [Note that the inspectors cannot accept data provided on USB or flash drives due to NRC IT security policies.] Please organize the information as it is arranged below to the extent possible. During the inspection, the inspectors may request additional documents. If there are questions regarding the documents requested, or if the documents cannot be provided by the due date, please do not hesitate to contact the lead inspector.

Documentation for these inspection procedures, are requested from the last inspection dates indicated below for each inspection area, unless otherwise specified. We would prefer as much of the information as possible in electronic form. An index of electronic contents is also helpful. For those items requesting a list of documents/areas, the inspector will select documents/areas from the list for on-site review.

Miscellaneous Organizational chart of site management.

Listing of primary site contact(s) for each inspection area including name(s) and telephone numbers.

Corrective Action Program procedures.

Schedule of major maintenance/work activities during the week of the inspection (Gantt chart if available).
