SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Commission hereby gives notice 

that, pursuant to Section 189a of the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended 

(the Act), it will convene an evidentiary 

session to receive testimony and 

exhibits in the uncontested portion of 

this proceeding regarding FPL’s June 30, 

2009, application for COLs under part 

52 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR), to construct and 

operate two additional units (Units 6 

and 7) at the Turkey Point site in 

Miami-Dade County, Florida (http://

www.nrc.gov/reactors/new-reactors/col/ 

turkey-point.html). The Commission 

had previously scheduled this hearing 

for February 9, 2017, and later, for 

October 5, 2017.1 This mandatory 

hearing will concern safety and 

environmental matters relating to the 

requested COLs, as more fully described 

below. Participants in the hearing are 

not to address any contested issues in 

their written filings or oral 

presentations. 

II. Evidentiary Uncontested Hearing 

The Commission will conduct this 

hearing beginning at 9:00 a.m. Eastern 

Standard Time on December 12, 2017, at 

the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission, One White Flint North, 

11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, 

Maryland 20852. The hearing on these 

issues will continue on subsequent 

days, if necessary. 

III. Presiding Officer 

The Commission is the presiding 

officer for this proceeding. 

IV. Matters To Be Considered 

The matter at issue in this proceeding 

is whether the review of the application 

by the Commission’s staff has been 

adequate to support the findings found 

in 10 CFR 52.97 and 10 CFR 51.107. 

Those findings that must be made for 

each COL are as follows: 

Issues Pursuant to the Atomic Energy 

Act of 1954, as Amended 

The Commission will determine 

whether (1) the applicable standards 

and requirements of the Act and the

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 194 / Tuesday, October 10, 2017 / Notices 47045 

2The process for accessing and using the agency’s 

E-filing system is described in the June 18, 2010, 

notice of hearing that was issued by the 

Commission for this proceeding. See Florida Power 

and Light Company; Combined License Application 

for the Turkey Point Units 6 and 7; Notice of 

Hearing, Opportunity To Petition for Leave To 

Intervene and Associated Order Imposing 

Procedures for Access to Sensitive Unclassified 

Non-Safeguards Information and Safeguards 

Information for Contention Preparation (75 FR 

34,777). Participants who are unable to use the 

electronic information exchange (EIE), or who will 

have difficulty complying with EIE requirements in 

the time frame provided for submission of written 

statements, may provide their statements by 

electronic mail to hearingdocket@nrc.gov. 

Commission’s regulations have been 

met; (2) any required notifications to 

other agencies or bodies have been duly 

made; (3) there is reasonable assurance 

that the facility will be constructed and 

will operate in conformity with the 

license, the provisions of the Act, and 

the Commission’s regulations; (4) the 

applicant is technically and financially 

qualified to engage in the activities 

authorized; and (5) issuance of the 

license will not be inimical to the 

common defense and security or the 

health and safety of the public. 

Issues Pursuant to the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 

1969, as Amended 

The Commission will (1) determine 

whether the requirements of Sections 

102(2)(A), (C), and (E) of NEPA and the 

applicable regulations in 10 CFR part 51 

have been met; (2) independently 

consider the final balance among 

conflicting factors contained in the 

record of the proceeding with a view to 

determining the appropriate action to be 

taken; (3) determine, after weighing the 

environmental, economic, technical, 

and other benefits against 

environmental and other costs, and 

considering reasonable alternatives, 

whether the combined licenses should 

be issued, denied, or appropriately 

conditioned to protect environmental 

values; and (4) determine whether the 

NEPA review conducted by the NRC 

staff has been adequate. 

V. Schedule for Submittal of Pre-filed 

Documents 

No later than November 7, 2017, 

unless the Commission directs 

otherwise, the NRC staff and the 

applicant shall submit a list of its 

anticipated witnesses for the hearing. 

No later than November 7, 2017, 

unless the Commission directs 

otherwise, the applicant shall submit its 

pre-filed written testimony. The NRC 

staff submitted its testimony on 

December 2, 2016. 

The Commission issued written 

questions on September 1, 2017. 

Responses to these questions are due on 

November 7, 2017, unless the 

Commission directs otherwise. 

VI. Interested Government Participants 

No later than November 6, 2017, any 

interested State, local government body, 

or affected, Federally recognized Indian 

Tribe may file with the Commission a 

statement of any issues or questions to 

which the State, local government body, 

or Indian Tribe wishes the Commission 

to give particular attention as part of the 

uncontested hearing process. Such 

statement may be accompanied by any 

supporting documentation that the 

State, local government body, or Indian 

Tribe sees fit to provide. Any statements 

and supporting documentation (if any) 

received by the Commission using the 

agency’s E-filing system 2 by the 

deadline indicated above will be made 

part of the record of the proceeding. The 

Commission will use such statements 

and documents as appropriate to inform 

its pre-hearing questions to the NRC 

staff and applicant, its inquiries at the 

oral hearing and its decision following 

the hearing. The Commission may also 

request, prior to November 8, 2017, that 

one or more particular States, local 

government bodies, or Indian Tribes 

send one representative each to the 

evidentiary hearing to answer 

Commission questions and/or make a 

statement for the purpose of assisting 

the Commission’s exploration of one or 

more of the issues raised by the State, 

local government body, or Indian Tribe 

in the pre-hearing filings described 

above. The decision whether to request 

the presence of a representative of a 

State, local government body, or Indian 

Tribe at the evidentiary hearing to make 

a statement and/or answer Commission 

questions is solely at the Commission’s 

discretion. The Commission’s request 

will specify the issue or issues that the 

representative should be prepared to 

address. 

States, local governments, or Indian 

Tribes should be aware that this 

evidentiary hearing is separate and 

distinct from the NRC’s contested 

hearing process. Issues within the scope 

of contentions that have been admitted 

or contested issues pending before the 

Atomic Safety and Licensing Board or 

the Commission in a contested 

proceeding for a COL application are 

outside the scope of the uncontested 

proceeding for that COL application. In 

addition, although States, local 

governments, or Indian Tribes 

participating as described above may 

take any position they wish, or no 

position at all, with respect to issues 

regarding the COL application or the 

NRC staff’s associated environmental 

review that do fall within the scope of 

the uncontested proceeding (i.e., issues 

that are not within the scope of 

admitted contentions or pending 

contested issues), they should be aware 

that many of the procedures and rights 

applicable to the NRC’s contested 

hearing process due to the inherently 

adversarial nature of such proceedings 

are not available with respect to this 

uncontested hearing. Participation in 

the NRC’s contested hearing process is 

governed by 10 CFR 2.309 (for persons 

or entities, including States, local 

governments, or Indian Tribes, seeking 

to file contentions of their own) and 10 

CFR 2.315(c) (for interested States, local 

governments, and Indian Tribes seeking 

to participate with respect to 

contentions filed by others). 

Participation in this uncontested 

hearing does not affect the right of a 

State, local government, or Indian Tribe 

to participate in the separate contested 

hearing process. 

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 3rd day 

of October, 2017. 

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Secretary of the Commission.
