U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attn: Document Control Desk Washington, D. C. 20555-0001 Re: Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Docket Nos. 50-250 and 50-251 Wastewater Permit Number FLO0 1562 Request for Major Revision and Permit Renewal Notification In accordance with Section 3.2.3 of the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Environmental Protection Plan (Appendix B of Facility Operating Licenses DPR-31 and DPR-41), enclosed is a copy of the request to renew and revise Wastewater Permit Number FL0001 562.
The renewal application encompasses the current operating units - fossil Units 1, 2 and 5, nuclear Units 3 and 4, and the proposed nuclear Units 6 and 7. There are no major permit changes requested for the existing fossil and nuclear Units 1-5. The renewal application constitutes a major permit modification due to the proposed construction of the new nuclear Units 6 and 7 inside the permitted Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility.
Any impact to the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility (cooling canal system) from construction of the new nuclear units is temporary in nature and will be addressed via the acquisition of separate permits (e.g. dewatering). Once operational, Units 6 and 7 will not discharge wastewater into the cooling canal system. All wastewater from the new units will be disposed of via Underground Injection Control Wells, which will be authorized under that permit program. Storm water that falls on the Units 6 and 7 site will continue to be released to the cooling canal system as it currently occurs.
Should there be any questions, please contact us.

Form 2CG ATTACHMENT III.A.
FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY TURKEY POINT POWER PLANT GENERAL PLANT DESCRIPTION Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) Turkey Point Plant is located adjacent to Biscayne Bay at 9760 S.W. 344th Street, Florida City, Florida 33035. The Turkey Point plant property covers approximately 11,000 acres (Form 1-XI Attachment).
The existing facility consists of five electrical generating units: Two oil/natural gas-fired units (Units I and 2), two nuclear units (Units 3 and 4) and one natural gas-fired combined cycle unit (Unit 5). The two 400-MW (nominal) oil/natural gas-fired electric generation units have been in service since 1967 (Unit 1) and 1968 (Unit 2). These units currently burn residual fuel oil and/or natural gas with a maximum equivalent sulfur content of one (1) percent. The two 700-MW (nominal) nuclear units have been in service since 1972 (Unit 3) and 1973 (Unit 4).
Construction, design, and operational aspects are essentially the same for both nuclear units.
Units 1 through 4 obtain their once-through condenser cooling water from, and release to, a closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility. Process water for Units 1 and 2 is obtained from the Upper Floridan Aquifer and/or from MDWASD. Units 3 and 4 obtain process water from MDWASD.
Unit 5 is a natural gas-fired combined cycle power plant with a generating capacity of 1150-MW (nominal). Turkey Point Unit 5 began operation in 2007. Unit 5 uses cooling towers and obtains cooling water from Upper Floridan Aquifer wells. Process water is obtained from Upper Floridan wells and/or from MDWASD. Unit 5 wastewater is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility.
The Turkey Point plant property includes 5,900-acres closed-loop cooling canal system that serves Units 1 through 4 for cooling and Units 1 through 5 as an industrial wastewater facility.
There are no point source discharges to waters of the United States, or to surface waters of the State from the plant site.
Wastewater generated by the existing Turkey Point Plant (Units I through 5) consists of non-contact once through condenser cooling water (OTCW), auxiliary equipment cooling water (AECW), cooling tower blowdown, low-volume waste (LVW) and stormwater. LVW consists of chemical treatment system wastewater, boiler blowdown, heat recovery steam generator blowdown, reverse osmosis concentrate, condensate polishing system backwash water and other process wastestreams. Stormwater includes stormwater associated with industrial activity and stormwater not associated with industrial activity. LVW, equipment area stormwater and non-equipment area stormwater/drainage is released either directly to the onsite closed-loop I
cooling canal system or indirectly to the same system after treatment via oil/water separator, solids settling basin and/or neutralization basin. The closed-loop cooling canal system does not discharge to surface waters of the state.
Two new nuclear units (Units 6 & 7), with in-service dates of 2018 and 2020, are proposed for the FPL Turkey Point Plant. Units 6 & 7 will contribute approximately 2,200 MW (net) of new generation to FPL's system. The Units 6 & 7 Site will be south of the existing Unit 4, within the closed-loop cooling canal system/industrial wastewater facility, on approximately 300 acres.
Water for these units will be obtained from a reclaimed water supply, a saline water supply, and a potable water supply. The circulating water system will use mechanical draft cooling towers.
Reclaimed water from MDWASD will be used as makeup water to the circulating water system.
When reclaimed water is not available in sufficient quantity, saltwater from radial collector wells will be used as makeup for the circulating water system.
Potable water will be used as makeup water for the service water system. The potable water supply will also provide water to the potable water system, fire protection system, demineralized water treatment system and other miscellaneous uses. Cooling tower blowdown and other site wastewater streams will be collected in a common blowdown sump and injected through deep injection wells. The deep injection wells will meet the requirements established by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) (Rule 62.528, F.A.C.), and the underground injection control program permit. The only operational discharge from the Units 6 & 7 Site to the closed-loop cooling canal system will be stormwater.
Stormwater from the Units 6 & 7 Site and the associated nuclear administration building, training building and parking area, which is adjacent to the industrial wastewater facility, will continue to be released to the industrial wastewater facility.
A separate stormwater management system will be designed and constructed for the FPL reclaimed water treatment facility and the radial collector well area. All other wastewater generated by the operation of Units 6 & 7 will be released through the deep injection wells.

- 1. Unit 3 & 4 Make-up Water Treatment System (Nuclear)
Municipal water is passed through a vendor-supplied water treatment system consisting of activated carbon filters for the removal of organic and inorganic suspended solids. The filtered water then passes through a reverse osmosis unit to remove total dissolved solids and silica. This is followed by a forced draft aerator for the removal of carbon dioxide. Subsequently, hydrazine is added to the influent for the deoxygenating purposes. This is then passed through an activated carbon media to catalyze the reaction, and then further treated by ion exchange bed to remove any carbon impurities or hydrazine overfeed. The effluent is further purified via a mobile flow demineralizer that removes cations and anions. The final purification involves the passing of the mixture through a cation/anion polishing mixed bed. The treated water is typically directed into storage tanks for use in the nuclear units.
I
All regenenerations of the resin beds are performed off-site at the vendors' service center.
The carbon filters are backwashed with municipal water to remove trapped suspended solids previously filtered from the process water. The backwash water is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals.
It is necessary to inject sulfuric acid to the influent of the reverse osmosis unit to reduce the pH to between 6.0 standard units (s.u.) and 8.5 s.u. This maintains the solubility of the calcium carbonate that is used in the reverse osmosis unit. The reject water from this process will have a pH of between 6.0 s.u. and 8.5 s.u. and is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals.
Alternate Make-up Water Treatment System Municipal water is passed through a coagulator and a fine sand filter to remove suspended solids and then passed through activated carbon filters for additional removal of organic and inorganic suspended solids. The softened, filtered water is further purified by passing through a cation resin bed where cations such as sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), and calcium (Ca) are removed, and then through an anion resin bed where anions such as sulfate (SO 4) and Chlorides (Cl) are removed.
Finally, it passes through a polishing mixed bed containing both cation and anion resins.
After a period of use, the anion and cation resins become exhausted and must be returned to their original adsorptive capacity (regenerated). Cation resins are regenerated with 5% H2S0 4 (sulfuric acid) where the H+ replaces the cations exchanged by the resins during the demineralization process. The anion resin bed is regenerated with 5% NaOH (sodium hydroxide), where OH' replaces anions exchanged by the resin during regeneration.
The sand and carbon filters are backwashed with municipal water to remove trapped suspended solids previously filtered from the process water.
Corrosive anion and cation regenerant waste (pH < 2.0 s.u. or _>12.5 s.u.) is sent to a totally enclosed treatment facility where the pH is adjusted to a range of between >2.0 s.u. to <12.5 s.u. This wastewater is routed to the neutralization basin where, if necessary, the pH is adjusted to > 6.0 s.u. to _<8.5 s.u. and then discharged to the closed-loop cooling canal system. Alternatively, the wastewater can be discharged to the closed-loop cooling canal system after the pH has been adjusted to > 6.0 s.u. to <
8.5 s.u.
- 2. Boiler Make-up Water Treatment System (Fossil & Unit 5 CC)
Boiler make-up for Units 1 & 2 is supplied by the Unit 5 Process Water Treatment System. The primary supply source is from Floridan aquifer wells, with backup from the municipal water supply.
2
- 3. Combustion By-Products (Fossil)
All combustion by-products waste streams from Units 1 and 2 are sent to B2 and B3 Solids Settling Basins for treatment. B2 Basin dimensions are 170 ft x 50 ft x 7.8 ft and it is a lined basin. B3 Basin dimensions are 170ft x 50 ft x 7.8 ft and the basin is lined. Soda ash and citric acid are the chemicals used in the treatment of the solids settling basins. The supernatant is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canal system or alternatively routed to the neutralization basin prior to discharge through Internal Outfall 002.
A carbon re-injection system provides a means for collecting carbon and unburned by-products of combustion in the flue gases. This carbon residue is recycled back into the boiler fire to maximize the use of combustion material. The resulting fly ash and slag contain various non-combustible compounds that are sluiced to one of the two solids settling basins. Combustion residue is also accumulated during various maintenance functions. Supernatant from the solids settling basins is treated with citric acid or soda ash, if needed, to adjust pH to proper limits prior to discharging to the closed-loop cooling canals. Ash is sent to a filter press and disposed of in accordance with state and federal regulations.
Economizer Hopper Wash (Fossil)
The economizer section of the boiler collects combustion by-products during plant operations, resulting in slag formation. Periodically, the interior surface of the economizer hopper is washed. This washing typically is performed daily or as needed. The wash water is discharged to one of two on-site settling basins. The supernatant from these basins is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals. Prior to discharge, the waste stream undergoes pH adjustments.
Ali Preheater Wash (Fossil)
Air preheaters operate in an atmosphere near the dewpoint of boiler exit gas. Since there is some deposition of sulfuric compounds on the preheater surface, wash water is typically acidic. Air preheaters are washed with water on an as needed basis and usually followed by rinsing with water. The air preheater waste effluent is routed to, and treated in, one of two solids settling basins.
Stack Wash (Fossil)
Each stack is washed approximately every five years to remove combustion products, which adhere to the interior stack surfaces. The stack wash is discharged to one of two solids settling basins. Supernatant from these basins is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals.
3
Dust Collector and Dust Collection Hopper Wash (Fossil)
Particulate materials collected by the dust collectors falls into dust collector hoppers and are injected into the boiler for re-burning, or is sluiced to one of the solids settling basins. At present, the collectors and hoppers are routinely washed. However, if clogging occurs, the appropriate section may be taken apart and the loose ash removed. The ash is caught within a curbed area and is sluiced to one of two solids settling basins. Supernatant from these basins is discharged to closed-loop cooling canals.
Boiler Fireside Wash (Fossil)
Boiler fireside washing is typically performed once per year per unit or as needed.
The high-pressure wash water is utilized to clean combustion products deposited on boiler tubes during operation. This system is designed to pump the boiler fireside waste water to one of two solids settling basins. Supernatant from these basins is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals.
- 4. Boiler & HRSG Blowdown (Fossil & Unit 5 CC)
High purity water generated by the plants' water treatment system for Units 1,2 and 5 is used for makeup to the boiler/HRSG water/steam cycle. During the continual vaporization of water occurring in the boiler, dissolved solids build up in the boiler water and must be controlled by the boiler blowdown.
Two forms of sodium phosphate are added to the boiler water for control of calcium and magnesium scaling. Ammonium hydroxide is added for feedwater pH control.
Hydrazine is added for dissolved oxygen removal. Undesirable boiler water contaminants such as CF and silica can be introduced from condenser tube leaks resulting in contamination of the boiler water. When dissolved solids reach unacceptable levels they must be reduced by boiler blowdown. Boiler blowdown is taken firom the bottom of the steam drum, which contains such contaminants as silica, sodium phosphate dissolved solids, calcium or magnesium phosphate sludge, and metals such as copper and iron. Some of the boiler blowdown flashes into steam and discharges into the atmosphere. The remaining liquid portion of the boiler blowdown is routed to the closed-loop cooling canals.
- 5. On-Line Chemical Analyzer Waste (All Units)
A very low volume of sample water is diverted from various locations within the steam cycle to online chemical analyzers to test water chemistry. A very small quantity of chemical effluent from these analyzers is discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals along with the blowdown.
- 6. Steani Generator Blowdown (Nuclear)
High purity water generated by the plants' make-up water treatment system is routed via storage tanks to the condensers for makeup to the water/steam cycle. Advanced 4
amines such as ammonium hydroxide, ethanolamine (ETA) and dimethylamine (DMA) or equivalent are added for pH and corrosion control and hydrazine or equivalent for dissolved oxygen removal. Strict operating specifications require that suspended and dissolved solids be removed from steam generator water by continuous steam generator blowdown. This blowdown is routed to the closed-loop cooling canals.
During overhauls and/or refueling outages the steam generators, feedwater systems, and/or condensers may be placed in a static mode where the internal metal surfaces of these components must be protected from corrosion. The typical method used is to fill the system with a hydrazine/carbohydrazine/arnerzine ammonia/demineralized water solution. This solution has a pH range of 9.0 s.u. to 10.5 s.u. and usually contains less that 300 ppm hydrazine. Approximately 1,000,000 gallons of this solution may be discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals following each overhaul or refuieling outage. Testing in the discharge canal for hydrazine concentrations, following the discharges, has shown hydrazine values to be less than 10 ppb.
- 7. Chemical Volume Control System (Nuclear)
This waste stream originates from various maintenance and operational activities, which take place within the Reactor Auxiliary Building. Discharges from the Chemical Volume Control System are intermittent, and are strictly regulated by the Atomic Energy Act and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
- 8. Main Condenser Cooling Water System (Fossil and Nuclear)
Condenser cooling water for Units I through 4 is withdrawn from the closed-loop cooling canal system through two intake canals on the east side of the units. The waste heat from the steam condensation is transferred to the cooling water in the condensers which discharge back to the closed-loop cooling canal system on the west side of the units. With all 12 circulating water pumps operating the cooling water flow is rated at 1,800,000 gpm.
- 9. Auxiliary Equipment Cooling Water System (Fossil and Nuclear)
An additional 120,000 gpmn of water firom the closed-loop cooling canal system is used to cool, via heat exchangers, the closed component cooling water system for Units I through 4. Actual equipment cooling is accomplished by aqueous molybdate-nitrite-tolytriazole (TTA) solution that is re-circulated through the various pieces of equipment to be cooled and then through the aforementioned heat exchangers.
Sodium hydroxide and nitric acid may be added for pH control.
5
- 10. Condensate Polishers (Nuclear)
The condensate polishers are utilized during the operation of Units 3 and 4.
Backwash water friom this system is discharged to a holding tank, then to a filtration/resin collection system prior to being discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals. Flow from this system is intermittent. This effluent may contain small amounts of powdered resin.
- 11. Intake Screen Wash (Fossil and Nuclear)
Periodically, it is necessary to clean the traveling screens associated with the intake cooling water pumps to prevent debris from reaching the condensers. Cooling canal water is pumped through spray nozzles to clean the screens and then the wash stream is returned to. the canal system via a debris screen at the intake area or to the discharge canal.
- 12. Sanitary Sewer (Fossil and Nuclear)
Sanitary waste from showers, water closets, toilets, etc. is routed to county approved on-site septic systems for the fossil and land management facilities.
The nuclear units' domestic wastewater is routed to an on-site county and state approved, contact stabilization sewage treatment plant. Effluent from this treatment plant is discharged to an on-site, approved, underground injection well. Wastewater residuals generated by this plant are transported to an approved offsite facility.
When Units 6 & 7 sanitary waste treatment system and deep injection wells are operational, sanitary waste fiom Units 3 & 4 will be routed to the new system and the Units 3 & 4 sanitary system will no longer be used.
- 13. Stormwater (Fossil, Nuclear and Unit 5 CC)
Non-Equipment Area Stormwater runoff for Units 1 through 4 collects in drainage channels and floor drains, then typically through a series of stormwater catch basins before being released to the closed-loop cooling canals. Non-Equipment Area Stormwater for Unit 5 is routed to a stormwater detention basin and released to local drainage.
Equipment and Containment Area Stormwater floor drains typically receive small amounts of particulate material, lubricating and fuel oils. The Equipment and Containment Area Stormwater drains, which can receive oil, are routed to oil/water separators then to the Solids Settling Basins prior to being discharged to the closed-loop cooling canal system.
6
- 14. Interceptor Ditch (All Units)
The Interceptor Ditch restricts inland movement of closed cooling canal water by maintaining a seaward groundwater gradient during times when a natural seaward gradient does not exist. Normally, during the wet season (June - November) and the early part of the dry season, a natural seaward gradient does exist, During the rest of the year, however, it may be necessary to artificially generate a seaward gradient by pumping water out of the Interceptor Ditch to the cooling canal.
- 15. Wastewater Treatment System (Unit 5 Combined Cycle)
The Unit 5 wastewater treatment system effluent includes cooling water and process water treatment system effluent, HRSG blowdown, quench water from the cooling towers, equipment area stornwater and plant drains. Equipment area stormwater is routed to an oil/water separator and then to the wastewater solids settling
/neutralization basin (sump). The other waste streams are collected in the sump before discharge to the closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility.
- 16. Cooling Tower Blowdown (Unit 5 Combined Cycle)
Blowdown from the Unit 5 cooling towers is released to the closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility. Unit 5 obtains cooling water from the Upper Floridan. Under rare conditions, if power is lost to the cooling towers, cooling water will be diverted from the cooling towers and used to cool emergency diesel generators using a once-through non-contact cooling system. The cooling water will then be discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility.
- 17. Stormwater (Units 6 & 7)
Stormwater is the only operational release from Turkey Point Units 6 & 7 to the closed-loop cooling canal system. All other wastewater from these units is discharged through the deep injection wells.
Non-equipment area stormwater runoff from the plant will collect in drainage channels and floor drains, and then will typically flow through stormwater catch basins before being released directly to the closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility.
Equipment and containment area stormwater floor drains typically receive small amounts of particulate material, lubricating and fuel oils. The Equipment and Containment Area Stornwater drains, which can receive soil/oil, are routed to oil/water separators then to solids settling basins prior to being released to the closed-loop cooling canals/industrial wastewater facility.
Non-equipment area storm water runoff from the Reclaimed Water Treatment Facility and the Radial Collector Well area will be released to off-site drainage. Equipment and containment area stornwater from the Reclaimed Water Treatment Facility will be routed back into the process flow.
7
- 18. Wastewater (Units 6 & 7)
All wastewater from Units 6 & 7, except for stormwater, will be routed to the deep injection wells that will be permitted through, and will meet the requirements of, the Underground Injection Control Program.

- 1. Boiler Waterside Chemical Cleaning (BCCM) - Fossil Boiler water tube internal surfaces are typically cleaned every 5-10 years. These cleanings are performed to remove inorganic scale and metal oxides that are deposited on the ID of the tube surfaces. The cleaning solvents of choice (in order of preference) are Tetraanmmonium Ethylenediaminetetraacetate (or Tetraammonium EDTA), Diamnionium EDTA, Diamnonium Citrate (byproduct is citric acid), or a similar type material. After completion of the boiler cleaning, the spent solution (known as boiler chemical cleaning material or BCCM) and subsequent rinses are collected into a series of temporary 20,000-gallon storage tanks (Frac Tanks). These tanks are connected to each other through a common manifold. A hazardous waste determination is then performed on a representative number of tanks as determined by the Waste Analysis Plan. BCCM that is determined to be non-hazardous is evaporated on site in an operational boiler in accordance with the applicable air permit stipulations. In some cases, non-hazardous waste may be disposed off-site in approved wastewater disposal facility. BCCM that is determined to be hazardous (very infrequent) will typically be disposed of off-site at a permitted waste facility.
- 2. Boiler Cold/Wet Lay-up During plant overhauls the boilers, feedwater systems and/or condensers may be placed in a static mode where the internal metal surfaces of these components need to be protected against surface corrosion. The typical method to protect this equipment is through the use of ammoniated demineralized water solution. Ammonium Hydroxide is added to ultra pure water to raise the pH to above 9.0 s.u. In some cases where dissolved oxygen may risk damaging the metal components, a small amount of hydrazine may also be used. This water remains in place until system start-up and operation. In some cases, the ammoniated water will be drained and sent to the closed-loop cooling canal system.

- 3. Equipment Area Routine Cleaning (All Units)
Equipment area floor drains typically receive small amounts of particulate material, lubricating and fuel oils, as well as wash water and stormnwater. Equipment area drains, which can receive oil, are routed to oil/water separators prior to being discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals.
- 4. Feedwater Heater Wash (Fossil)
After a unit overhaul, typically each of the five (5) low pressure feedwater heaters will be flushed with condensate water. The wastewater will go through the storm drains and be discharged to the closed-loop cooling canals. The condensate wastsewater will have low levels of silica, chloride, phosphate, calcium, and magnesium.
- 5. E quioment Closed Cooling Water Systems Maintenance (Fossil and Nuclear)
Molybdates, nitrites, and tolyltriazoles for corrosion control are used in Plant equipment closed cooling water systems, such as the Component Cooling Water System, the Turbine Plant Cooling Water System, air conditioning coolant systems, the cooling jackets of diesel driven pumps and compressors coolant systems. During routine maintenance of this equipment water is discharged to the close-loop cooling canals.
The nuclear plant's closed cooling water systems are infrequently treated with the biocide, gluteraldehyde or isothiazolin to prevent biological corrosion. However, the biocides are not discharged to the closed-loop cooling canal system.
