==Dear Mr. Franke:==
==Dear Mr. Franke:==


By letter dated December 16, 2008, Florida Power Corporation submitted an application, pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 54, to renew the operating license for Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant, for review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the staff). The staff is reviewing the information contained in the license renewal application and has identified, in the enclosure, areas where additional information is needed to complete the review. Further requests for additional information may be issued in the future. Items in the enclosure were discussed with Mr. Michael Heath, and a mutually agreeable date for the response is within 30 days from the date of this letter. If you have any questions, please contact me at 301-415-3733 or by e-mail at Robert.Kuntz@nrc.gov. Sincerely, /RA/

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR THE REVIEW OF THE CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION (TAC NO. ME0274)

Dear Mr. Franke:

By letter dated December 16, 2008, Florida Power Corporation submitted an application, pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 54, to renew the operating license for Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Generating Plant, for review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the staff). The staff is reviewing the information contained in the license renewal application and has identified, in the enclosure, areas where additional information is needed to complete the review. Further requests for additional information may be issued in the future.

Items in the enclosure were discussed with Mr. Michael Heath, and a mutually agreeable date for the response is within 30 days from the date of this letter. If you have any questions, please contact me at 301-415-3733 or by e-mail at Robert.Kuntz@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Drawing 302-001-LR Sheet 1, Symbols, does not define the symbol. U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff cannot determine the function of AHU-33 to identify if it should be in scope for license renewal. Provide clarification if AHU-33 is in scope for license renewal. If it is determined to be not in scope, please include the justification.

RAI 2.3.3.11-3: For the Control Complex Ventilation System the NRC staff cannot determine from the drawings or from the descriptions in the application or the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) if the pneumatic operated dampers shift to their safety position on the loss of air or on the application of air. If air accumulators are provided to assure the required air supply to the damper actuators, please discuss if they are in scope for license renewal for the function as a pressure boundary.

RAI 2.3.3.12-1: For the Emergency Diesel Generator Air Handling System the NRC staff cannot determine from the drawings or from the descriptions in the application or the FSAR if the pneumatic operated dampers shift to their safety position on the loss of air or on the application of air. If air accumulators are provided to assure the required air supply to the damper actuators, please discuss if they are in scope for license renewal for the function as a pressure boundary.

RAI 2.3.3.12-2: The Emergency Diesel Generator Air Handling System description indicates end baffles are installed to help assure the exhaust air from below the generator does not recirculate back to the cooling air inlets. These help minimize generator heat rejection to adjacent electrical equipment/components and enhance the capability of the ventilation system to maintain the room temperatures within acceptable limits. Please discuss, or indicate where in the application it is discussed, why the baffles are not in scope for license renewal.

RAI 2.3.3.14-1: FSAR Section 9.7.2 states that the switchgear room smoke detectors and temperature switches in the return duct close fire dampers. Drawing 302-754-LR Sheet 1, coordinates A8, shows the fire damper on the discharge of the switchgear room (AHFD-40) is in scope and that inlet fire damper (no equipment number shown) is not in scope. Provide a discussion, or indicate where in the application the discussion is located, justifying inlet fire damper (no equipment number shown) housing is not in scope for license renewal.
