ANNUAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT Subsection 5.4.1 of the Environmental Protection Plan (EPP), as contained in Appendix B of the Operating License for the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit 2, requires that an Annual Environmental Operating Report be submitted to the Commission prior to May 1 of each year.
The following addresses the requirements found in Subsection 5.4.1 of the EPP for the submittal of the Annual Environmental Operating Report:
- 1.
Provide summaries and analyses of the results of the environmental protection activities required by Subsection 4.2 (if any) of the EPP for the report period, including a comparison with related preoperational studies, operational controls (as appropriate),
and previous non-radiological environmental monitoring reports, and an assessment of
-the -observed impacts of the plant operation -on the environment.- -If harmful effects or evidence of trends toward irreversible damage to the environment are observed, a detailed analysis of the data and a proposed course of mitigating action shall be provided.
Subsection 4.2 of the EPP denotes three areas of environmental monitoring:
Subsection 4.2.1 (Aquatic Monitoring) has no specific monitoring requirements although it is noted that the Commission will rely on the decisions made by the State of New York under the authority of the Clean Water Act for any requirements. Aquatic monitoring is specified in the station's State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (SPDES Permit) which is a site permit applicable to Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit 1 and Unit 2. The SPDES Permit requires a limited Aquatic Monitoring Program (referred to in the permit as a Biological Monitoring Program) which, at the present time, is only applicable to Unit 1. Therefore, no Aquatic Monitoring Program is presently required for Unit 2.
Subsection 4.2.2 (Terrestrial Monitoring) does not contain any monitoring
_equirements.-
H Subsection 4.2.3 (Noise Monitoring) does not contain any monitoring requirements.
- 2.
Provide a list of EPP noncompliances and corrective actions.
