Cook Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 EHC HYDRAULIC FLUID SPILL NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER DISCHARGE AUTHORIZATION NOTIFICATION Indiana Michigan Power Company is the holder of National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit MI0005827 and Groundwater Discharge Authorization (GDA) permit M00988 for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant (CNP). Appendix B, Part II, Section 3.2 of the Environmental Technical Specifications to Facility Operating Licenses DPR-58 and DPR-74 requires violations of the NPDES Permit to be reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) by submittal of copies of the reports required by the NPDES Permit.

In a letter dated November 20, 2003, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) was notified that approximately /2-liter of Fyrquelo EHC Fire Resistant Hydraulic Fluid was released to the turbine room sump and then to the on-site absorption pond through discharge Outfall OOD. A sustained high wind condition from November 11-13, 2003, caused the vapor extraction circuit to malfunction, forcing an abnormal amount of EHC fluid from the drain line into an overflow pan. The pan was designed to collect minor leakage from the extraction circuit and was overwhelmed when the system malfunctioned.

Approximately 5 gallons leaked to the floor inside of the turbine building. A very small amount of the fluid (approximately /2-liter) reached a floor drain, where it was released through discharge Outfall OOD. An immediate notification to the Pollution Emergency Alert System was made on November 13, 2003, at 2330 hours0.027 days <br />0.647 hours <br />0.00385 weeks <br />8.86565e-4 months <br /> after verification of product loss to the floor drain.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission AEP:NRC:2401-09 Page 2 Written notification was provided to the MDEQ per Part II, Section C.7 of the NPDES Permit and Part II, Section A.7 of the GDA permit. In accordance with the Environmental Technical Specifications, a copy of the report to the MDEQ is being provided to the NRC as an attachment to this letter.

This letter contains no new commitments.

Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this notification, please contact John P. Carlson, Environmental Manager, at (269) 465-5901, extension .1153.

Toxicological Ingestion-Practically non-toxic; the acuteoral LD5O (rat) forasimilar .

material is'> 5000 mg/kg. The acute-oral.LDSO (rat) for trixylenyl phosphate and triphenyl phosphate is > 5000.mg/kg and,> 4640 mg/kg,.

respectively. Ingestion may cause nerve.damage and cholinesterase inhibition.

Ingestion- CHRONIC .

Although data are not available'for this'material, repeated.

ingestion may cause cholinesterase.inhibition and nerve damage.

Daily ingestion by'rats ofl100, 400,' or 1600 ppm of a similar urodct-in the diet:for.three months produced Increases in the, Yiver and adrenal gland weights in females and increases in the liver'weights of males at the highest dose level.. However, no histopathological changes were.noted.

CARC1NOGE2NICITY/MUTAGENIC1TY -: .-..

The carcinogenic/mutagenic properties of'this material have not

.been determined Neither this material nor its components have been'classified-as a carcinogen or suspect carcinogen by IARC NTP, OSHA, or ACGIH. A similar product was not mutagenic in the Ames test.- It did not induce an increase in chromosomal aberration or sister chromatid exchanges in mouse lymphoma cells and did not induce morphological-.transtormations in BALB/3T3'cells. Triphenyl phosphate, a product.component, was not mutagenic'-in the Ames test.

REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS Daily administration of a similar product at 100 400 or 1000 mg/kg to rats on days 6 through 20 of gestation'demonstratea maternal toxicitv (increased liver weights-and reduced food consumption at the high-dose)and feto-toxicity (reduction in fetal body.

weight at the high-dose) but no indications of teratogenicity:'.

were observed. Triphen4 phosphate a product component, was not teratogenic in -rats at dietary levels oT up to 10 mg/kg administered through mating.and gestation.

NEUROTOXICITY Neurotoxicity data are not available for this-product. An oral dose of 1.14 g/kg of trixylenyl phosphate.did not produce significant inhibition of.brain neurotoxic esterase. Therefore, acute delayed neurotoxicity would not be expected at this dose level. Acute oral administration-of a hiqh dose of a similar material, 11.4.q/kg, to,.

hens produced 85% inhibition of plasma cholinesterase and 94-inhibition of brain neurotoxic.esterase. Hens observed for.three weeks following administration of this high dose showed motor incoordination starting on the tenth.day and increasing.in severity with time.-

Oral administration of 420 or 2000 mg/kg/day of triphenyl phosphate for 5days.to hens did not cause significant inhibi ion of neuro-toxic esterase-or clinical signs of neurotoxicity.. Hens dosed twice orally 3weeks apart wi h-11.7 g/kg of a similar product did' not show signs of delayed-neurotoxcity. In aseparate study, . -.

a similar product inhibited plasma cholinesterase but.not neuro-
