Draft Environmental Assessment: Crystal River Unit 3 License Termination Plan - Opportunity for Review and Comment Date: Monday, May 20, 2024 6:38:00 PM Attachments: image001.png Draft Crystal River LTP Environmental Assessment FLHealth.pdf

Dear Florida Department of Health,

I am writing to you on behalf of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regarding a licensing action for the Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Power Station (CR3).

Please find attached a draft Environmental Assessment (EA) and finding of no significant impact prepared by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory (NRC) staff for a license amendment request from Accelerated Decommissioning Partners, LLC (ADP) for NRC approval of the License Termination Plan (LTP) for the CR3, located in Citrus County, Florida.

The CR3 is a commercial nuclear power plant that is licensed by the NRC, but it stopped operations in 2009. In 2023, ADP submitted a license amendment request to the NRC to amend its license for CR3. ADPs request, if granted, would add a condition to its license reflecting the NRCs approval of its LTP and include a provision to allow ADP to make certain changes to the NRC-approved LTP without prior NRC approval.

ADP has proposed derived concentration guideline levels to meet the 10 CFR 20.1402 criteria. The NRC staff must determine whether additional planning, investigation, or other activities by ADP are necessary to support the NRCs decision on approving the LTP. Once decommissioning has been completed, the NRC licenses have been terminated except for the independent spent fuel storage installation, and the site has been released for unrestricted use, ADP can make the CR3 site available for another use.

The NRCs licensing action associated with this EA is time sensitive. If you have any comments regarding the information in the EA or the NRCs proposed licensing action, we request that you provide them as soon as possible, but no later than Friday, June 7. The NRC staff appreciates written confirmation if there are no comments.

As noted in the header for the draft EA, the document is pre-decisional and as such, should not be made available to the public.

The file has been encrypted and I will send you a separate email with the passcode.

If you have any questions, please contact me.

Sincerely,

Amy Minor Environmental Project Manager U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Phone: 817-200-1454
