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 Licenses
and Opportunity For Hearing
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has denied
a portion of a request by Florida Power and Light Co. (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, Unit
Nos. 3 and 4, located in Dade County, Florida. Notice of Consideration
of Issuance of these amendments was published in the Federal Register
on June 2, 1999.
The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the
Technical Specifications (TS) to correct the TS Index, remove
inconsistencies, and make administrative changes. The NRC staff has
concluded that a portion of the licensee's request, related to the
proposed deletion of dates for approved security plans, cannot be
granted. The basis of the denial is detailed in the safety evaluation
related to Amendment Nos. 203 and 197 dated December 20, 1999.
By January 26, 2000, the licensee may demand a hearing with respect
to the partial denial described above. Any person whose interest may be
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 20555-0001, Attention: Rulemakings and
Adjudications Staff, or may be delivered to the Commission's Public
Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC,
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
20555-0001, and to Mr. Mitchell Ross, General Counsel, Florida Power
and Light Company, P.O. Box 14000, Juno Beach, Florida, 33408-0420,
attorney for the licensee.
For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the
application for amendment dated April 26, 1999, (2) Amendment Nos. 203
and 197 to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-31 and DPR-41, and (3)
the Commission's related safety evaluation.
These documents are available for public inspection at the
Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street,
NW., Washington, DC. Publically available records will be accessible
electronically from the ADAMS Public Library component on the NRC Web
site, http://www.nrc.gov (the Electronic Reading Room).
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 20th day of December 1999.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
