Progress Energy Serial: RNP-RAI11-0010 FEB 0 82011 Mr. Luis A. Reyes Regional Administrator, Region II United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission - Region II Marquis One Tower 245 Peachtree Center Ave., NE Suite 1200 Atlanta, GA 30303-1257 H. B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NO. 2 INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION DOCKET NO. 72-3/LICENSE NO. SNM-2502 INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION DOCKET NO. 72-60 INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION ANNUAL RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT RELEASE REPORT

Dear Mr. Reyes:

In accordance with 10 CFR 72.44(d)(3), Carolina Power and Light Company, also known as Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc., is providing the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for the period January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010 for the H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant (HBRSEP), Unit No. 2, Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations (ISFSIs).

The HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, site contains two ISFSI facilities. One facility operates under a site-specific license, which was originally issued in 1986 and was renewed in 2005. For that facility, this report is also submitted in accordance with License No. SNM-2502, Appendix C, Technical Specifications for Environmental Protection, Section 1.4.1. The second facility operates under a general license and began operation in 2005.

Both facilities employ the Transnuclear, Inc., NUHOMS design. The design for both facilities includes seal welded storage canisters, such that there is no potential for gaseous or liquid radioactive effluents. Surveillances performed during the year confirm that the storage canisters are performing as designed. Hence, there were no gaseous or liquid radioactive effluents during 2010 for either facility.
