Results Of the four areas inspected, one item of noncompliance was identified in one area (paragraph 5).

"-Attended exit interview 2.

Exit Interview The inspection scope and findings were summarized on July 16, 1980 with those persons indicated in Paragraph 1 above.

The item of noncompliance identified herein was discussed.

3.

Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings No previous inspection findings were disclosed.

4.

Unresolved Items Unresolved items were not identified during this inspection.

5.

Dust Control Section 4.6.c of the Revised Final Environmental Statement (RFES) referenced in Section 2.F.(5) of the Construction Permits, requires that road dust will be minimized.

Further, Section 3.8 of the licensee's Environmental Report states:

"if road dust presents an unacceptable impact, efforts wi'll be made to minimize the effect,."

Upon the inspector's'nitial arrival at the plant site on July 16, 1980, and during the remainder of the inspection, viz.

July 15-16, 1980, the inspector observed the following:

(1) excessive road dust attending routine vehicular traffic on roads throughout the plant site; (2) infrequent watering of subject roads as required for effective

dust abatement and control; (3) visual and safety hazards to drivers of vehicles on such roads as a

consequence of excessive road dust.

The inspector informed licensee representatives of these findings, and discussed with them the above criteria and commitments requiring them to minimize road dust and to implement efforts to minimize its'dverse effects.

The inspector informed licensee representatives that their failure to control road dust and to minimize the effects thereof constituted an item of noncompliance (50-400/80-17-01, 50-401/80-15-01, 50-402/80-15-01 and 50-403/80-15-01).

The inspector emphasized that, the cited finding was a

repeat item of noncompliance (50-400/78-08, 50-401/78-08, 50-402/78-08 and 50-403/78-08)

and that efforts should be implemented to consistently control and minimize road dust attending routine onsite vehicular traffic.

Licensee representatives stated the above findings would be reviewed and responded to upon receipt of this inspection report.

6.

Erosion Control a

~

Section 4.6.e of the RFES, referenced in Section 2.F.(5) of the Con-struction Permits requires that erosion and soil runoff causing contamination of surface water will be minimized.

The inspection included a

tour and observation of drainage systems and erosion control practices within the plant site and at the main dam constuc-tion area.

Inspection of the plant site disclosed that virtually all surface erosion attending constuction activities settled in the main reservior area, and hence minimized the mass of constuction related sediment reaching the Cape Fear River.

b.

Inspection of the main dam construction site disclosed that erosion and runoff control measures committed to by the licensee were being implemented.

Such controls included:

sediment ponds; ditches; burlap fences; intercept; check dams; cofferdams; and grassing of -berms, where necessary.

Inspection also included a review and discussion of the licensee's constuction effects monitoring program to assess, more specifically, the effect of construction related runoff on Buckhorn and Whitoak Creeks, and the zone of the Cape Fear River influenced by the Buckhorn Creek outfall. These monitoring parameters included:

pH; total suspended solids; plankton and benthic communities; and the species diversity within such communities.

Inspection time precluded completion of the above assessment; however',

the licensee was informed that such an assessment would.be followed up during a

succeeding inspection (50-400/80-17-02, 50-401/80-25-02, 50-402/50-15-02 and 50-403/80-15-02).

7.

Inspection of construction waste management included a detailed review of the disposal and management of constructionwastes.

The following items were inspected:

(1) spoil storage and borrow areas; (2) onsite landfill; (3) onsite incinerator; (4) concrete batch plant liquid effluent; (5) waste motor oil and related sump; (6) merchantable metal waste.

Inspection disclosed that disposal and management of the above construction wastes were consistent with accepted industry practices.
