Mr. Mano Nazar

Executive Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer

SUBJECT: TURKEY POINT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - NOTIFICATION OF TRIENNIAL FIRE

PROTECTION BASELINE INSPECTION (NRC INSPECTION REPORT

NOS. 05000250/2013007 AND 05000251/2013007)

Dear Mr. Nazar:

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

staff will conduct a triennial fire protection baseline inspection at Turkey Point, Units 1 and 2, in

June 2013. The inspection team will be led by Mr. Gerald Wiseman, a Senior Reactor

Inspector from the NRC Region II Office. The team will be composed of personnel from the

NRC Region II Office. The inspection will be conducted in accordance with IP 71111.05T, the

NRC's baseline fire protection inspection procedure, dated January 31, 2013.

On March 18, 2013, during a telephone conversation between Ms. Olga Hanek, Turkey Point,

Licensing Engineer, and Mr. Wiseman, our respective staffs confirmed arrangements for a

three-day information gathering onsite visit and a two-week onsite inspection. The schedule for

the inspection is as follows:

• Information Gathering Visit: May 21-23, 2013

• Week 1 of onsite inspection: June 10-14, 2013

• Week 2 of onsite inspection: June 24-28, 2013

The purposes of the information gathering visit are to obtain information and documentation

needed to support the inspection, to become familiar with the Turkey Point Nuclear Plant fire

protection program, fire protection features, post-fire safe shutdown capabilities, plant layout,

mitigating strategies to address Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.54(hh)

(2); and, as necessary, obtain plant specific site access training and badging for unescorted site

access.

An initial list of the documents the team will review during the conduct of the inspection are

listed in Enclosures 1 and 2. The team leader will contact you with any additional specific

document requests prior to the information gathering visit.

M. Nazar 2

During the information gathering visit, the team will also discuss the following inspection support

administrative details: office space size and location; specific documents requested to be made

available to the team in their office spaces; arrangements for reactor site access (including

radiation protection training, security, safety and fitness for duty requirements); and the

availability of knowledgeable plant staff and licensing organization personnel to serve as points

of contact during the inspection.

We request that during the on-site inspection weeks you ensure that copies of analyses,

evaluations or documentation regarding the implementation and maintenance of the station fire

protection program, including post-fire safe shutdown capability, be readily accessible to the

team for their review. Of specific interest for the fire protection portion of the inspection are

those documents which establish that your fire protection program satisfies NRC regulatory

requirements and conforms to applicable NRC and industry fire protection guidance (i.e., fire

protection compliance assessment documents). For the 10 CFR 50.54(hh) (2) portion of the

inspection, those documents implementing your mitigating strategies and demonstrating the

management of your commitments for the strategies are of specific interest. Also, personnel

should be available at the site during the inspection that is knowledgeable regarding those plant

systems required to achieve and maintain safe shutdown conditions from inside and outside the

control room, including the electrical aspects of the relevant post-fire safe shutdown analyses,

reactor plant fire protection systems and features, and the station fire protection program and its

implementation.

This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection

requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, under control number

3150 0011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a

request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document

displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC Rules and Practices, a copy of this letter and its

enclosures will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document

Room or from the Publically Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system

(ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-

rm/adams.hmtl (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Your cooperation and support during this inspection will be appreciated. If you have questions

concerning this inspection, or the inspection team's information or logistical needs, please

M. Nazar 3

contact Mr. Gerald Wiseman, the team leader, in the Region II Office at (404) 997-4542 or me at

Triennial Fire Protection Inspection Supporting Documentation

The documents and information requested below should generally be made available to the

inspection team during the on-site information gathering visit for the team's use both on-site and

off-site during the inspection. Electronic format is the preferred media, except where specifically

noted, if readily available (The preferred file format is searchable .pdf files). If electronic media

is made available via an internet based remote document management system, then the remote

document access must allow inspectors to download, save, and print the documents in the

NRC's regional office. Electronic media on compact disc or paper records (hard copy) are

acceptable. At the end of the inspection, the documents in the team's possession will not be

retained.

Approximately three weeks before the on-site information gathering visit, the following

documents should be made available to the team leader for review in the regional office:

• Post-fire Safe Shutdown or Alternative Shutdown Analysis (request A.1)

• Fire Hazards Analysis (request A.2)

• Individual Plant Examination for External Events (Fire Chapter ONLY) (request A.3)

Based on review of the above three documents, the team leader will identify a preliminary list of

fire areas being considered for inspection prior to the on-site information gathering visit. During

the information gathering visit, or shortly thereafter, the fire areas selected for inspection will be

determined.

This document request is based on typical documents that a generic plant might have. As such,

this generic document request is not meant to imply that any specific plant is required to have all

of the listed documents. It is recognized that some documents listed below may not be

available for your plant. In addition, the document titles listed below are based on typical

industry document names; your plant specific document titles may vary.
