No: 24-022 March 29, 2024 CONTACT: Scott Burnell, 301-415-8200 NRC Issues Final Environmental Impact Statement for Turkey Point Subsequent License Renewal The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued a final site-specific Environmental Impact Statement - known as an EIS - for the subsequent renewal of the licenses for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 in Florida.

The final EIS is based, in part, on a revised environmental report received from Florida Power and Light. The final site-specific EIS evaluates all the environmental impacts of continued operation of Turkey Point, Units 3 and 4 during the subsequent license renewal term.

The NRCs Atomic Safety Licensing Board is conducting a proceeding regarding the environmental review. Following that proceeding, the agency will make a final decision on extending the Turkey Point licenses into the subsequent license renewal term. Information about the Turkey Point subsequent license renewal review is available on the NRC website.
