FPL submitted the application pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations part 54, Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants, for SLR.

The NRC staff determined that the application was complete and acceptable for docketing as communicated by letter dated September 24, 2021 (ADAMS Accession No. ML21246A091),

and noticed in the Federal Register on August 16, 2021 (86 FR 45768).

The NRC staff has reviewed the St. Lucie Subsequent License Renewal Application (SLRA) and has developed the enclosed Safety Evaluation Related to the SLR of St. Lucie Plant, Units 1 and 2, hereinafter referred to as the Safety Evaluation (SE). The SE reflects the status of the NRC staffs safety review of the SLRA, as supplemented, through July 13, 2023. Revision 0 was originally issued on July 21, 2023 (ML23200A146). In the original issuance, sections 3.0.3.3 and 3.0.3.4 were inadvertently removed. This revision restores this information and makes other formatting and editorial changes.

The next milestone for this project is the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards Full Committee meeting.September 1, 2023 If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact the subsequent license renewal project manager, Mr. Vaughn Thomas, by e-mail at Vaughn.Thomas@nrc.gov or Mr. Brian Harris, by e-mail at Brian.Harrs2@nrc.gov.
