UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Dianne Strand GM Regulatory Affairs Florida Power & Light Co.
15430 Endeavor Drive (NT3/JW)
Jupiter West, FL 33478
SUBJECT:
TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT NUMBERS 3 AND 4 -
NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF THE DRAFT SITE-SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR SUBSEQUENT LICENSE RENEWAL (EPID NO. L-2021-SLE-0002)
Dear Dianne Strand:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has prepared draft environmental impact statement (EIS) NUREG-1437, Supplement 5a, Second Renewal, Site-Specific Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants Regarding Subsequent License Renewal for Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 3 and 4, Draft Report for Comment.
The draft EIS supplements NUREG-1437, Supplement 5, Second Renewal, Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants Regarding Subsequent License Renewal for Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 3 and 4, Final Report (FSEIS),
issued in October 2019. The draft EIS includes the NRC staffs site-specific evaluation of the environmental impacts of subsequent license renewal (SLR) for Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 3 and 4 (Turkey Point) for each of the environmental issues that were dispositioned as Category 1 issues (generic to all or a distinct subset of nuclear power plants) in the FSEIS consistent with table B-1 in appendix B to subpart A of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 51 and NUREG-1437, Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, Revision 1, Final Report. The draft EIS also considers whether there is significant new information that would change the NRC staffs conclusions concerning Category 2 issues (specific to individual nuclear power plants) in the FSEIS. The NRC staff prepared the draft EIS in accordance with Commission Legal Issuance (CLI)-22-02 and CLI-22-03, both dated February 24, 2022. Together, the draft EIS and the FSEIS evaluate, on a site-specific basis, all of the environmental impacts of continued operation during the SLR term for Turkey Point Unit 3 from July 19, 2032, to July 19, 2052, and for Turkey Point Unit 4 from April 10, 2033, to April 10, 2053.
The NRC staff has also prepared a Federal Register (FR) Notice of Availability to advise the public that the draft EIS is publicly available from the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. The ADAMS accession number for the draft EIS is ML23242A216. In addition, the draft EIS will be available to the public near the site at the following location: Naranja Branch Library, 14850 SW 280 Street, Homestead, Florida 33032.
As discussed in the draft EIS, the NRC staffs preliminary recommendation is that the adverse environmental impacts of SLR for Turkey Point (i.e., the continued operation of Turkey Point for a period of 20 years beyond current expiration dates) are not so great that preserving the option September 5, 2023
D. Strand of SLR for energy-planning decision-makers would be unreasonable. The NRC staff based its recommendation on the following: 1) Florida Power & Light Companys environmental report, as supplemented; 2) the NRC staffs consultations with Federal, State, Tribal, and local government agencies; 3) the NRC staffs independent environmental review, which is documented in the draft EIS and the FSEIS; and 4) the NRC staffs consideration of public comments.
The NRC will hold two public meetings, one in-person near Turkey Point and one through online webinar and teleconference call, on the draft EIS, including a presentation on the preliminary recommendation in the draft EIS and a transcribed public comment session. The in-person meeting will be held September 19, 2023, at 7:00 p.m. eastern time (ET) at the Hampton Inn &
Suites, 2855 NE 9th St, Homestead, FL 33033. The virtual meeting will be held September 27, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. ET. Details on both meetings can be found on the NRCs Public Meeting Schedule at: https://www.nrc.gov/pmns/mtg.
A separate Notice of Availability of the draft EIS will be placed in the FR through the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The 45-day public comment period end date is calculated from the date on which the EPA notice is published in the FR.
Should you have any questions concerning the NRC staffs environmental review of the Turkey Point SLR, please contact the Project Manager, Lance J. Rakovan, by email at Lance.Rakovan@nrc.gov.
