U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION'S ASSESSMENT OF 2012 DECOMMISSIONING FUNDING STATUS REPORT FOR CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT (TAC NO. ME8290)


==Dear Mr. Franke:==
==Dear Mr. Franke:==
By letter dated March 26,2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received Florida Power Corporation's (the licensee) decommissioning funding status (DFS) report (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML121 OOA159) for Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant (CR-3). On November 29, 2011, the NRC received your preliminary decommissioning cost estimate pursuant to Title 10 of the Code ofFederal Regulations (10 CFR), Section 50.75(f)(3) and your spent fuel management plan pursuant to 10 CFR Section 50.54(bb) (ADAMS Accession No. ML 113390139). The 2012 DFS report provided the information required under 10 CFR 50. 75(f)(1), with one exception. The reported amount of decommissioning funds estimated to be required should include, along with the amount specified by the formulas in 10 CFR 50.75(c), the amount of your preliminary decommissioning cost estimate submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 50. 75(f)(3), but which was omitted in your submittal. Therefore, the NRC reviewed your DFS report using the preliminary decommissioning cost estimate amount of approximately $753 million. The NRC staff considered this as the certification amount that must be covered by your financial assurance method. Based on the reported decommissioning trust balance, together with earnings credits specified under NRC regulations, the NRC determined that the amount of decommissioning financial assurance you provided was equal to or greater than the minimum required amount based on the preliminary decommissioning cost estimate. This letter confirms the correspondence, described above, regarding DFS reports for operating power reactors as required under 10 CFR 50. 75(f)(1). As of the date of this letter, considering the available information, the NRC has determined that all licensees of CR-3 have satisfied the decommissioning funding assurance requirements of 10 CFR 50.75 for CR-3 on December 31, 2011. The DFS report analysis is enclosed. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please feel free to contact me at (301)

UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 May 22,2012 Mr. Jon A. Franke, Vice President Crystal River Nuclear Plant (NA2C)

ATIN: Supervisor, Licensing & Regulatory Programs 15760 W. Power Line Street Crystal River, Florida 34428-6708

SUBJECT:

U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION'S ASSESSMENT OF 2012 DECOMMISSIONING FUNDING STATUS REPORT FOR CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT (TAC NO. ME8290)

Dear Mr. Franke:

By letter dated March 26,2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received Florida Power Corporation's (the licensee) decommissioning funding status (DFS) report (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML121 OOA159) for Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant (CR-3). On November 29, 2011, the NRC received your preliminary decommissioning cost estimate pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Section 50.75(f)(3) and your spent fuel management plan pursuant to 10 CFR Section 50.54(bb) (ADAMS Accession No. ML113390139).

The 2012 DFS report provided the information required under 10 CFR 50. 75(f)(1), with one exception. The reported amount of decommissioning funds estimated to be required should include, along with the amount specified by the formulas in 10 CFR 50.75(c), the amount of your preliminary decommissioning cost estimate submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 50. 75(f)(3), but which was omitted in your submittal. Therefore, the NRC reviewed your DFS report using the preliminary decommissioning cost estimate amount of approximately $753 million. The NRC staff considered this as the certification amount that must be covered by your financial assurance method.

Based on the reported decommissioning trust balance, together with earnings credits specified under NRC regulations, the NRC determined that the amount of decommissioning financial assurance you provided was equal to or greater than the minimum required amount based on the preliminary decommissioning cost estimate.

This letter confirms the correspondence, described above, regarding DFS reports for operating power reactors as required under 10 CFR 50. 75(f)(1). As of the date of this letter, considering the available information, the NRC has determined that all licensees of CR-3 have satisfied the decommissioning funding assurance requirements of 10 CFR 50.75 for CR-3 on December 31, 2011. The DFS report analysis is enclosed.

J. Franke - 2 If you have any questions regarding this letter, please feel free to contact me at (301) 415-1447.

Sincerely, Farideh E. Saba, Senior Project Manager Plant licensing Branch 11-2 Division of Operating Reactor licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-302
