FOR: |
The Commissioners |
FROM: |
William D. Travers
Executive Director for Operations |
SUBJECT: |
TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 3 AND 4, RENEWAL OF FULL-POWER
OPERATING LICENSES |
PURPOSE:
To inform the Commission of the results of the NRC staff's review of
the license renewal application for the Turkey Point Nuclear Plant, Units
3 and 4 (Turkey Point Units 3 and 4), submitted by Florida Power and Light
Company (hereafter referred to as FPL or the applicant), and request that
the Commission authorize the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation (NRR) to make the appropriate findings and renew the operating
licenses for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 for an additional 20 years.
BACKGROUND:
By letter dated September 8, 2000 (Reference 1), FPL submitted its application
to renew the operating licenses for Turkey Point, Units 3 and 4, in accordance
with Parts 51 and
54 of Title 10
of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). In its submittal, the
applicant requested renewal of operating licenses DPR-31 for Unit 3 and
DPR-41 for Unit 4, which were initially issued under Section 104b of the
Atomic Energy Act, for a period of 20 years beyond the current license
expiration dates of midnight July 19, 2012, for Unit 3, and midnight April
10, 2013, for Unit 4.
DISCUSSION:
The staff performed its safety review of the Turkey Point Units 3 and
4 license renewal application in accordance with 10
CFR Part 54, using guidance in NRR Office Letter 805, "License Renewal
Application Review Process," and the draft "Standard Review Plan for the
Review of License Renewal Applications for Nuclear Power Plants," dated
June 2000.
NUREG-1759,
"Safety Evaluation Report Related to the License Renewal of the Turkey
Point Nuclear Plant, Units 3 and 4" (Reference 2), and Supplement
1 (Reference 3) describe the results of the staff's review of the
applicant's scoping and screening, aging management programs, and time-limited
aging analyses, in accordance with the requirements of 10
CFR Part 54.
The Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 license renewal application included a
supplement to the final safety analysis report (FSAR), as required by
10
CFR 54.21(d). The applicant subsequently transmitted a revised FSAR
supplement by a letter dated November 1, 2001. The revision superseded
the version in the application. The revised FSAR supplement contains a
summary description of the applicant's programs and activities for managing
the effects of aging and the applicant's evaluation of the time-limited
aging analyses for the period of extended operation. The staff reviewed
the revised FSAR supplement and found that it meets the requirements of
10
CFR 54.21(d). The attached proposed renewed licenses require that
the applicant include the FSAR supplement in the updated FSAR (UFSAR),
which is scheduled for release in October 2002. Until the UFSAR update
is completed, a condition in the proposed renewed licenses requires that
any changes to the FSAR supplement be made in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59.
This assures the NRC that these programs, maintenance activities, and
inspection procedures will be adequately controlled.
The FSAR supplement also identifies future actions. Throughout NUREG-1759
and Supplement
1, the staff describes various schedules for future actions. These
schedules reflect the staff's determination that the future actions are
not required for operation during the existing license term; however,
they are required to be completed before entering the period of extended
operation to effectively manage aging. The proposed renewed licenses include
license conditions for the completion of these future actions. The applicant
can change the schedules for these actions without prior NRC approval
as long as the actions are completed in accordance with the license condition.
On the basis of its safety evaluation, as described in NUREG-1759
and Supplement
1, the staff reached the following conclusions, in accordance with
10
CFR 54.29:
(1) Actions have been identified and have been or will be taken with
respect to managing the effects of aging during the period of extended
operation on the functionality of structures and components that have
been identified to require an aging management review under 10
CFR 54.21(a)(1).
(2) Actions have been identified and have been or will be taken with
respect to time-limited aging analyses that have been identified to require
review under 10
CFR 54.21(c).
Accordingly, the staff finds that there is reasonable assurance that
the activities authorized by the renewed licenses will continue to be
conducted in accordance with the current licensing bases for Turkey Point,
Units 3 and 4.
To support the review of the applicant's license renewal application,
Region II conducted two inspections. The inspections were conducted in
accordance with Inspection
Manual Chapter 2516 ,
"Policy and Guidance for the License Renewal Inspection Programs," and
Inspection
Procedure 71002 ,
"License Renewal Inspection." As described in the memorandum from Bruce
S. Mallett, Acting Regional Administrator, NRC Region II, dated February
1, 2002 (Reference 4), the results of these two inspections verified that
the applicant implemented the scoping and screening methodology and established
aging management programs in conformance with the descriptions in the
application for license renewal, and that there is reasonable assurance
that the applicant's aging management programs provide an adequate basis
for renewing the licenses for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 for an additional
20 years.
The staff issued the safety evaluation report (SER) with open items on
August 17, 2001 (Reference 5). On September 25, 2001, the staff and the
applicant briefed the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS)
Subcommittee on Plant License Renewal on the SER and the ACRS full committee
on October 5, 2001. After the open items were resolved, the ACRS subcommittee
and the full committee were briefed again on March 13, and April 11, 2002,
respectively. On April 19, 2002, the ACRS issued its "Report on the Safety
Aspects of the License Renewal Application for the Turkey Point Nuclear
Plant Units 3 and 4." In its report (included in Section 5 of NUREG-1759,
Reference 2), the ACRS recommended that the Commission approve the application
for license renewal and concluded that the programs instituted to manage
aging-related degradation were appropriate and provided reasonable assurance
that Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 can be operated safely in accordance with
their licensing bases for the period of extended operation without undue
risk to the health and safety of the public.
The staff performed its environmental review of the Turkey Point Units
3 and 4 license renewal application in accordance with 10
CFR Part 51, using the guidelines described in the "Standard Review
Plan for Environmental Reviews for Nuclear Power Plants, Supplement 1:
Operating License Renewal," NUREG-1555, Supplement 1, dated March 2000.
On October 24, 2000, the staff published a Notice of Intent (65 FR 63636)
to prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) and conduct scoping,
initiating a 60-day scoping period. The EIS, prepared by the staff for
the plant-specific review, is a supplement to the Generic Environmental
Impact Statement (GEIS), NUREG-1437,
which was codified in 10
CFR Part 51 for license renewal. The EIS for Turkey Point Units 3
and 4 is Supplement 5 to the GEIS (SEIS). Two public meetings were held
in Homestead, Florida, on July 17, 2001. During these meetings, the staff
described the approach and results of the NRC's environmental review and
answered questions from members of the public to help them formulate their
comments. The comment period for the draft SEIS ended on September 6,
2001.
The staff evaluated the comments received on the draft SEIS and considered
the environmental impacts of the proposed action, the environmental impacts
of alternatives to the proposed action, and the alternatives available
for reducing or avoiding adverse impacts. The final version of the SEIS
for the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 license renewal application was issued
on January 11, 2002 (Reference 6). The dispositions of the comments from
members of the public are discussed in the SEIS. As discussed in Section
9.3 of the SEIS, the staff determined that, on the basis of (1) the analysis
and findings in the "Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License
Renewal of Nuclear Power Plants," NUREG-1437;
(2) the Environmental Report submitted by the applicant; (3) consultation
with other Federal, State, and local agencies; (4) the staff's own independent
review; and (5) the staff's consideration of public comments, the adverse
environmental impacts of license renewal for Turkey Point Units 3 and
4 are not so great that preserving the option of license renewal for energy
planning decisionmakers would be unreasonable.
In accordance with 10
CFR 54.19(b), license renewal applications must include "conforming
changes to the standard indemnity agreement, 10
CFR 140.92, Appendix B, to account for the expiration term of the
proposed renewed license." The staff intends to keep the same license
numbers for the renewed licenses. Therefore, there is no need to make
conforming changes to the indemnity agreement, and the requirements of
10
CFR 54.19(b) have been met.
As a result of the staff's review of the applicant's license renewal
application, the staff recommends that the Commission authorize the Director
of NRR to make the appropriate findings and then issue the attached renewed
operating licenses for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 for an additional 20
years of operation.
COORDINATION:
The Office of the General Counsel has reviewed this paper and has no
legal objections to its content. The Office of the Chief Financial Officer
also has reviewed this paper and because there are no resource implications,
OCFO concurrence is not required.
RECOMMENDATION:
On the basis of the above discussion, the NRC staff recommends that the
Commission:
-
Authorize the Director of NRR to renew the operating licenses for
Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 after making the appropriate findings on
safety and environmental matters.
-
Note that the staff will make any necessary conforming changes to
the renewed licenses as a result of any pending licensing actions
while the Commission is considering the staff's recommendations.
