Consumers Energy A CMS Energy Company Environmental & Lab Services Fax 517 788 2329 1945 West Parnall Road www. consumersenergy com Jackson, Ml 49201-8643 April 3, 2003 Michigan Department of Environmental Quality Kalamazoo District Office Water Division Supervisor Attn: Mr. Greg Danneffel 7953 Adobe Rd Kalamazoo, MI 49009-5026 CONSUMERS ENERGY COMPANY, PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT NPDES PERMIT NO. M10001457 PERMIT APPLICATION RENEWAL The NPDES Permit for the Consumers Energy Company's Palisades Nuclear Plant expires October 1, 2003. The enclosed State of Michigan NPDES Permit Application Forms (Rev. 01/03) are hereby submitted to support reissuance of the NPDES Permit No. MN0001457 issued on September 24,1999.
The Palisades Nuclear Plant is owned and operated by Consumers Energy Company. However, it is managed by staff hired by the Nuclear Management Company (NMC). The person signing the enclosed application is the site director of the Palisades Plant who is employed by NMC. The site director is responsible for the overall operations of the plant and, therefore, meets the signatory requirements in Rule 323.2214 and 40 CFR 122.22(a) (1) (ii).
The enclosed application includes a revised flow diagram reflecting current operations. Wastewater discharges from this facility have been well characterized through the duration of the current and previous NPDES permits. Outfall 001A (mixing basin discharge) consists principally of noncontact cooling water, cooling tower blow down from internal outfalls OA-OOC, and combined miscellaneous low volume waste. Internal Outfalls 001D and 001F consists principally of radwaste water and turbine sump water.
Monitoring at internal Outfalls OOA-OOC was previously eliminated from the current NPDES permit during permit renewal since flows are calculated prior to combining with mixing basin flows where they are monitored and measured at Outfall 001A.
Waivers are requested for parameters where there is no source association or an undetectable loading to the effluent as a result of plant operations through previous NPDES permits characterization. The Company request waivers from certain data reporting requirements in the application according to 40 CFR 122.53 (d)(7)(i)(B), subpart D for:
- 1) Outfall O0IA, a waiver is requested from reporting data for parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c)
TOC, (d) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), and (e) Total Suspended Solids.
Palisades NPDES Perinit Application Cover Letter 4303
- 2) Outfall 00 ID, a waiver is requested from reporting for parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c)
TOC, (d) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), (e) pH, (f) Temperature summer, and (g) Temperature winter.
- 3)
Outfall 001F, a waiver is requested from reporting data for parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c) TOC, (d) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), (e) Total Suspended Solids, (f) pH, (g) Temperature summer, and (h) Temperature winter.
STORM WATER Compliance with all storm water monitoring requirements is maintained as specified in the current permit.
A copy of the Plant Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan is retained and available at the site for review and/or inspection upon request.
WATER TEATMJENT ADDITIVES Enclosed as Attachment 1 is a current list of water treatment additives currently authorized and used at the Plant. The additives listed were approved by the Department through previous NPDES renewals or by separate approval. The Company requests continued approval of the attached additives.
A new additive, Nalco/Calgon EVAC was requested for use in 2001 to control zebra mussels in plant cooling water systems, however, it was never used at the plant. Instead, the plant will continue to use and apply Betz Clamtrol CT-2 (otherwise known as Spectrus CT 1300) and Betz Clamtrol CT-4 for zebra mussel control under the specified current permit terms and conditions (see page 4 of 23). The Plant does not intend to pursue approval to use EVAC at this time, therefore a MSDS is not included.
SUGGESTED RENEWED PERMIT CHANGES Enclosed as Attachment 2 are marked-up pages of the current permit showing proposed permit language changes to be made to the permit prior to renewal. Below are compliance updates of the two demonstrations required in the current permit. The cooling water intake demonstration has been completed therefore propose it be deleted from the permit prior to renewal.
Cooling Water Intake Demonstration The cooling water intake system demonstration was completed where reports were filed accordingly.
Assessment of the cooling water flow increase at the plant demonstrated that the potential fish impingement and entrainment losses resulting from plant operation were very minimal, and that the intake system still minimizes adverse environmental impact in accordance with Section 316(b) or Public Law 92-500. New cooling water intake rules for existing facilities may be in effect, or come into effect during the upcoming NPDES permit renewal process. The proposed rules are essentially requiring impingement and entrainment standards that would be proportional with that of cooling tower technology. Since the Palisades Plant already has cooling tower technology and a demonstrated minimal adverse environmental impact, we anticipate the plant offshore intake and cooling tower system to continue to reflect best Palisades NPDES Permit Application Cover Letter 4303
technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impact under the new intake rules as well.
Demonstration reports were filed accordingly and are available upon request.
Thermal Plume Study Seasonal thermal plume surveys were performed at the Palisades Plant to determine the aerial extent of the thermal plume at 3 degree F with the plant operating at the increased cooling water flow rate. Draft survey results are being reviewed by MDEQ, Water Division Assessment Section and MDNR, Fisheries Division.
A draft final report of the thermal plume study will be prepared by April 30, 2003. Another survey will be performed by MIDEQ Water Division this spring for observation or plume measurement methodology on Lake Michigan. For security purposes, due to potential terrorists threats at nuclear facilities, the discharge area in Lake Michigan is a security exclusion area. Prior arrangements with plant security and the US Coast Guard will be required to allow the thermal plume survey. The MDEQ Water Division staff is to work with Company staff to ensure accommodation.
We would appreciate the opportunity to review the plant's Pre-Public Notice draft NPDES permit prior to placing it on Public Notice. If you have any questions or need additional information please do not hesitate to contact me at (517) 788-1469 or by e:mail at jacrawfo@cmsenergy.com.
