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 November 9, 1994 (59 FR 55869).
    The purpose of the licensee's amendment request was to revise the 
Technical Specification (TS) to revise the definition of core 
alterations, allow the personnel airlocks to be open during core 
alterations and revise a footnote pertaining to opening of certain 
valves.
    The NRC staff has concluded that the portion of the licensee's 
request regarding the footnote allowing certain valves to be open 
during core alterations cannot be granted for the reasons stated in 
letter dated May 11, 1995. The licensee was notified of the 
Commission's denial of the proposed change by letter dated May 11, 
1995.
    By June 19, 1995, 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
