SUBJECT:

ST. LUCIE NUCLEAR PLANT - EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

Dear Mr. Nazar:

From February 12-16, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Emergency Preparedness exercise inspection at the St. Lucie Nuclear Plant. The inspection will evaluate activities in the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone using NRC Inspection Procedures (IPs) 71114.01, Exercise Evaluation; 71114.04, Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes; and the Emergency Preparedness sections of 71151, Performance Indicator Verification. Prior to the onsite inspection period, inspectors will review the proposed exercise scenario using IP 71114.08, Exercise Evaluation - Scenario Review.

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. To minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection.

We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff, and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Mike Snyder 772-467-7036 of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Steven Sanchez at 404-997-4418 (steven.sanchez@nrc.gov), or the Chief, Operations Branch II, Eugene Guthrie at 404-997-4662.

M. Nazar 2 This letter and its enclosure will be made available for public inspection and copying at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Eugene F. Guthrie, Chief Operations Branch 2 Division of Reactor Safety Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 License Nos. DPR-67 AND NPF-16

The current version of these documents is expected unless specified otherwise. The first seven italicized items under IP 71114.01 are requested as early as practical, but no later than 60 days prior to the exercise, to support the pre-exercise scenario review under IP 71114.08. However, this should not preclude submitting the scenario per 10 CFR 50.4. Electronic media is preferred, if readily available (the preferred file format is Word or searchable .pdf files on CDROM). [Note that the inspectors cannot accept data provided on USB or flash drives due to NRC IT security policies.] Please organize the information as it is arranged below (e.g., a folder labeled Miscellaneous). It is not the intent that large or burdensome data be scanned for this purpose (e.g., Performance Indicator documents). This data will be inspected using original documentation. Material can be provided prior to the inspection to the NRC Region II Office (ATTN: Steven Sanchez), 245 Peachtree Center Avenue, NE, Suite 1200, Atlanta, GA 30303-1257. If there are questions regarding the documents requested, please do not hesitate to contact the lead inspector.
