Exelon Nuclear www.exeloncorp.com Nuclear 200 Exelon Way Suite 345 Kennett Square, PA 19348 April 8, 2002 Mr. Sean Furjanic CCN 16000 Pennsylvania Department Of Environmental Protection Water Quality Management 909 Elmerton Avenue Harrisburg, PA 17110-8200
Subject:
Temporary Discharge to the Discharge Canal Dear Mr. Furjanic; Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, NPDES Permit PA0009733, is requesting permission for a temporary discharge of a dewatering process effluent to the Discharge Canal. Peach Bottom is planning on dredging the Intake Canals between the trash racks at the outer screens and the inner screens. Unit 2 will be done during August to November 2002 and Unit 3 during August to November 2003.
The dredging will be accomplished by hydraulic dredging with a cutter head. The material will be dewatered using a cyclone grit chamber and four belt filter presses.
The coagulant proposed for use in the dewatering process is Magnafloc LT225S, which is NSF 61 approved. The MSDS is attached.
Peach Bottom would like to discharge the effluent of the dewatering process to the Discharge Canal. The flow from the filter presses will be approximately 1,000 gallons per minute for approximately 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> per day for approximately 70 days for each unit.
The flow in the Discharge Canal will be approximately 1,500,000 gpm.
The dewatered material will be deposited in either the D and E Cooling Tower Basins, an upland area at the North Substation, or the permitted Dredging/Rehandling Basin.
These are listed in order of preference.
Attached is a copy of the Erosion and Sedimentation Plan approved by the York County Conservation District. The PADEP Water Obstruction & Encroachment Permit DEP File Number E36-693 & APS#326514 is valid until September 26, 2010. The US Army 0o 0(
Corps of Engineers Permit CENAB-OP-RPA( EXELON NUCLEAR/PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION) 00-01851-2 is valid until November 21, 2011.
The sampling and analysis regime proposed is a daily 12-hour composite during the dredging operation analyzed for Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and a daily grab sample analyzed for pH. The results will be reported as an attachment to the monthly DMR's for the months the dredging occurs.
If you have any question on the project, please feel free to contact me at 610-765-5904, Mr. Bryan Holcomb at 717-456-3182, or Mr. Daniel Jordan at 717-456-4551. Thank you for your cooperation on this matter.

Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Call a physician.
[SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point:
Not Applicable Autoignition:
Not Evaluated Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: None Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Dust in sufficient concentration may result in an explosive mixture in air.
Fire Fighting Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical or foam.
Fire Fighting Equipment: No special procedures. However, wetted product presents a slip hazard. Pedestrian and vehicular traffic must proceed with caution where wet product may exist.
Fire and Explosion Hazards: Dust in sufficient concentration can result in an explosive mixture in air. Handle to minimize dusting, and eliminate open flame and other sources of ignition.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Oxides of carbon and nitrogen.
Combustibility: May burn in fire.
Dust Explosivity: Dust in suficient concentration may result in an explosive mixture in air.
