In accordance with Reference 1, this letter, from Duke Energy Progress, Inc., formally known as Carolina Power & Light Company, and Duke Energy Florida, Inc., formally known as Florida Power Corporation, hereby provides the following information concerning the capability to perform offsite dose assessment during an event involving multiple release pathways (e.g.,
releases from reactor containments and spent fuel pools) at the Brunswick, Crystal River, Shearon Harris, and H. B. Robinson Nuclear Stations:
: 1. Summary of current capability to perform multi-unit/multi-source dose assessment.
In the event of a multi-source or multi-unit release accident, dose assessors at the Brunswick, Crystal River, Shearon Harris, and H. B. Robinson Nuclear Stations would take the following actions:

United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission RA-1 3-012 Page 2 Qualified dose assessors at each nuclear station perform individual dose assessment calculations using Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) dose assessment model RASCAL (Radiological Assessment and Consequence Analysis), Version 3.0.5. The program does not have the capability to perform simultaneous multiple release point calculations. During a multiple release point event, individual dose assessment results are manually summed to determine total offsite dose to the public.
: 2. Anticipated schedule to establish multi-unit/multi-source dose assessment capability on an interim and/or permanent basis if required.
Manual summation of dose assessment results provides an interim capability and will continue to be performed until implementation of a multi-unit/multi-source software code.
Brunswick, Shearon Harris, and H. B. Robinson will compile design data supporting modeling with a multi-source/multiple release pathway software code such as Raddose V or multi-source/multiple release point modeling capable version of Unified RASCAL Interface (URI), test the new program, develop relevant procedures, perform training, and complete implementation by December 31, 2014.
: 3. A description of the administrative process that will be used to track completion of key actions (e.g., commitment tracking or corrective action program and tracking identifiers).
Duke Energy will identify and track key actions through the corrective action program (CAP) as Action Request (AR) 610491.
On February 20, 2013, Duke Energy Florida, Inc. certified to the NRC the permanent removal of fuel from the Crystal River Unit 3 reactor vessel. Therefore, Duke Energy has no plans to establish multi-unit/multi-source dose assessment capability at the Crystal River nuclear station.
This letter contains one new voluntary regulatory commitment for Brunswick, Shearon Harris, and H.B. Robinson Nuclear Stations. That voluntary regulatory commitment is identified in . Any other actions discussed in this letter should be considered intended or planned enhancement actions.
