NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 50-250 and 50-251]
Florida Power and Light Company; Turkey Point Unit Nos. 3 and 4;
Notice of Partial Denial of Amendment to Facility Operating License and
Opportunity for Hearing
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has denied a portion
of an amendment request by the Florida Power and Light Company (FPL or
the licensee) for an amendment to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-
31 and DPR-41, issued to the licensee for operation of the Turkey Point
Plant, Units 3 and 4, located in Dade County, Florida. Notice of
Consideration of Issuance of this amendment was published in the
Federal Register on March 30, 1994 (59 FR 14889).
The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the
Technical Specification (TS) to delete the frequencies from the audits
performed under the cognizance of the Company Nuclear Review Board
(CNRB) and remove the audit of the emergency and security plans and
implementing procedures from TS. The audits would be performed at the
frequency specified in the FPL Topical Quality Assurance Report (TQAR).
Some audits would be performed less frequently (biennial rather than
annual in most cases).
The NRC staff has concluded that the portion of the licensee's
request regarding audits of the Fire Protection Program cannot be
granted for the reasons stated in letter dated October 26, 1994. The
licensee was notified of the Commission's denial of the proposed change
by letter dated October 26, 1994.
By December 2, 1994, the licensee may demand a hearing with respect
to the denial described above. Any person affected by this proceeding
may file a written petition for leave to intervene.
A request for hearing or petition for leave to intervene must be
filed with the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, DC, 20555, Attention: Docketing and Service
Branch, or may be delivered to the Commission's Public Document Room,
the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC 20555, by the
above date. A copy of any petitions should also be sent to the office
of the General Counsel, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington,
DC 20555, and to Harold F. Reis, Esquire, Newman and Holtzinger, P.C.,
1615 L Street, NW., Washington, DC 20036, attorney for the licensee.
For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the
application for amendments dated February 18, 1994, as supplemented by
letter dated August 5, 1994, and (2) the Commission's letter to the
licensee dated October 26, 1994. These documents are available for
public inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman
Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC 20555 and at the Florida
International University, University Park, Miami, Florida 33199. A copy
of Item (2) may be obtained upon request addressed to the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555, Attention: Document
Control Desk.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 26th day of October, 1994.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
