The NRC is responsible for assuring public health and safety by the development of sound regulation and licensee compliance to these regulations.

The NRC's good performance program is not based on compliance with the regulations and includes elements of subjective judgement by NRC management.

The impact that this program can have on the financial standing and public image of licensees is inappropriate.

FPL believes that this program should be discontinued.

Our industry faces the challenge of improving economic performance while sustaining and further enhancing high standards of safety and reliability.

Economic influences from our public utility commissions, Wall Street, and deregulation provide incentives for excellent safety and performance standards.

FPL appreciates the opportunity to submit these comments.Very truly yours, W.H.Bohlke Vice President Nuclear Engineering and Licensing WHB/msd 94i017000b 94i003 l I PDR'PR 59FR453i3 PDR an FPL Group company 0 v-ca l g II ,)I I I I I L i Qs
