St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. 50-335 and 50-389 L-99-183 Attachment ST LUCIE PLANT SEA TURTLE MORTALITY 30-DAY WRITTEN REPORT EVENT DES CIPIION At approximately 0820 hours on July 17, 1999, a dead Loggerhead Turtle (Caretta caretta) weighing 67 pounds was recovered from the St. Lucie Plant intake canal. The turtle, which was in poor physical condition, was found against the 8-inch barrier net located at the A1A Bridge.
