Millstone Power Station NPDES Permit Renewal Additional Information and Comments on the Draft Permit

Dear Mr. Charles Nezianya:

In conjunction with its pending NPDES permit renewal application, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut (DNC) hereby provides additional information and comments to the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (the "Department" or "DEP") on the most recent draft National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES")

renewal permit provided by the Department on July 24, 2003 (the "Draft" Reference 1).

This letter is a follow-up to certain of the letters listed above (References 2 and 3) and our meeting with the Department on March 18, 2003. General (or more global) comments are addressed first and then specific comments are provided in the order of the draft NPDES Permit by Section. Prior requests for modifications to the permit draft that have yet to be addressed by the Department are also included. It should be noted that proposed recommended changes to temperature and "delta T" limits for DSNs 001-1, 001-B and 001-C were included in a separate letter to the Department dated July 22, 2003 (Reference 4) and are incorporated in this letter by reference.

For ease of reference, DNC has attached a "Requested Changes Matrix" that summarizes the requests in this letter. An index of attachments is also included.

GENERAL COMMENT

S A. Revised Process Descriptions and Line Diagrams Where DNC is requesting changes or additions to wastewater descriptions or monitoring location descriptions, or has described other process wastewater changes or additions in this letter, DNC has included the revised process descriptions and revised line diagrams (Figures 3B and 13B) in Appendix 6. We are collectively identifying these revised process descriptions and line diagrams as Addendum No. 5 to the Millstone NPDES permit application.

B. DSN 006-1 (Table HH) Ethanolamine and Hydrazine Monitoring DNC requests that ethanolamine (ETA) and hydrazine monitoring be changed from weekly to monthly at DSN 006. As summarized below, the average and maximum concentrations for the period of monitoring from the fourth quarter 2000 through the third quarter 2003 show that these constituents are rarely detected. Therefore, DNC believes it is reasonable to request the change in frequency from weekly to monthly. These parameters are currently monitored monthly under EA0100176. DNC believes that it is also reasonable to remove hydrazine limits from this discharge (monitor only). This finding is based on a comparison of the monitoring data to levels that were calculated as being protective of water quality with respect to aquatic toxicity (566 ug/l average monthly limit and 1135 ug/l maximum daily limit; see Reference 2, page 5 and Table 4).

C. Section 10-Alternative Pathways General:

Revisions to Section 10 (Kj were discussed with the Department on March 18, 2003.

Consistent with those discussions, clarifications to Section 10 (K) were proposed as part of DNC's letter dated May 20,2003 (Reference 3). DNC proposed modifying Section 1O(K) to provide for the following:

  • clarify that the report is for "administrative purposes only", and that compliance with the Department's regulations for permit reporting is based upon information required by Sections 8 and 9 of the permit, and D17510 2
  • allow for an annual request for determination by DNC to the Department for eliminating the requirement for the "annual report" specified in Section 10(K).

As a follow-up to our prior discussions, DNC also proposes the following revisions to Section 1O(K):

"On or before January 31 of each year the permittee shall submit for the review o to the Commissioner e an administrative report summarizing all discharges which have been redirected to an alternative pathway, as authorized under Section 4(I), within the previous twelve month period. The report shall list the date, volume, and location of the redirected discharges. The report shall also explain the reason indicate which one of the factors listed in Section 4, Paragraph (HI), or which other reason, precipitated the redirection of fef redikeeing any discharge to an alternative location. In addition, the report shall summarize any violations of the effluent limitations specified within this permit for these discharges. The permittee may include in this annual report a request to discontinue the future submission of this report."

With respect to alternate pathways, DNC has updated the attached summary Table 1 of alternate pathways. Discharge specific changes are summarized in Section II of this letter.

Addition of alternatives for discharge of containment under-drain sumys:

The process descriptions for DSNs OO1C, OO1C-4, OO1C-5 and 006, found in Appendix 6, have been modified to reflect the possible future addition of Unit 3 containment building under-drain sumps pending engineering review of alternatives for discharge of these waters. This discharge would primarily consist of groundwater. While the draft permit dated July 24, 2003 incorporated these waters in DSN OOIC-4, the alternative pathways listed above are also available. The discharge of such waters via an alternate pathway will occur according to the protocols identified in Paragraph 4(H) of the draft permit in that the effluent limitations of the receiving discharge will be complied with.

D. Section 10 - Compliance Schedules In DNC's letter dated January 22, 2003 (Reference 2, page 10 and 11), the status of all submissions already made under Section 10 was summarized. At that time, DNC listed all completed reports and studies, and requested, for those provisions that have been satisfied, that the specific compliance conditions be deleted. In DNC's letter dated May 20, 2003 (Reference 3), additional clarification was provided with respect to the Nitrogen Loading and Reduction Study; DNC believes it has been fully responsive to these draft permit conditions and requests that the Department provide a status determination for paragraphs E, F, G, H and I of Section 10, so that if supplemental information is necessary, DNC can respond to the Department in a timely fashion. For each condition the Department determines has been satisfied, DNC respectfully requests that the draft permit conditions be removed.

D17510 3

)

By way of summary, DNC has made considerable progress toward hydrazine minimization and implementation of environmentally beneficial projects. This includes preparation of various studies as well as facility modifications. As indicated in Reference 2, Molybdenum chemistry substitution for hydrazine has proceeded in certain closed cooling water systems. To date, LCS 1200 (a molybdenum based corrosion inhibitor) has been substituted in the Unit 2 emergency diesel cooling waterjacket and the Turbine Building Closed Cooling Water Systems (TBCCW).

Similar changes have occurred in the Unit 3 TBCCW. In addition, modification of steam generator system operating procedures was implemented at Unit 3 during its last refueling outage to reduce the quantity of hydrazine in wet layup discharges. Rather than discharging steam generator wet layup waters containing hydrazine directly to the environment, the layup water was allowed to remain in the generators during restart and dissipate during the heat up process.

The addition of hydrazine treatment systems for DSNs OO1B-6 and OO1C-6 (condensate polishing facilities) with Department approval has also substantially reduced the discharge of hydrazine to the environment. A reduction of hydrazine discharged in excess of 50% has been achieved from these treatment process modifications alone (Reference 2).

Similarly, Millstone has undertaken an initiative to significantly reduce its use and consumption of domestic water. Projects underway include recycling the Unit 2 steam generator blowdown, DSN OO1B-1, which will save approximately 52 million gallons annually when implemented. Eliminating the use of domestic water within the hypochlorite injection system at Unit 3 is expected to save 10 million gallons annually.

Research projects are also underway to evaluate the use of filter media such as charcoal to reduce the concentrations of Freon found within the closed cooling water systems and to explore opportunities to further reduce the use and discharge of ETA in the secondary plant (steam generator) system.

E. Temperature Limits on Internal Discharges As outlined in our May 20, 2003 letter (Reference 3), DNC requested the deletion of temperature limitations from internal unit discharges. Specifically, DNC requested the deletion of temperature limits on DSNs OO1B-8, OO1B-9, OO1C-6, OO1C-8 and OOlC-9.

In the most recent permit draft, the limits and monitoring were deleted for DSNs OO1B-8

-and OOlB-9, but not for OOlC-6, OOIC-8 and OOlC-9. DNC respectfully requests that the Department delete the internal temperature limits and monitoring for discharges OO1C-6, OO1C-8 and OOlC-9. Reference 2 provided heat balance calculations showing that the resultant effect on the Unit discharges (001-B and 001-C) was essentially undetectable and as a result internal limitations are not necessary.

D17510 4

DNC also requests that the proposed hourly temperature monitoring for unit service water DSNs OO1B-5 and OOIC-S be changed from hourly back to weekly. DNC believes that the proposed hourly frequency of monitoring is unwarranted since temperature is already continuously monitored at the unit discharges (DSNs 001-B and 001-C), which include service water inputs. In addition, DNC requests that the temperature limits for these discharges (001B-5 and OOIC-5) be deleted. As shown on Table 1 in Reference 3, the maximum temperature values reported for the period 2000 to 2001 did not show any exceedances of the temperature limits for these discharges. Also, there were no exceedances for the same period for DSNs 001-B and 001-C. Because temperature is continuously monitored at the unit discharges (001-B and 001-C), DNC believes it is reasonable to request deletion of the internal temperature limits at DSNs OO1B-5 and OOIC-5 (Tables M and Y, respectively).

F. Analytical Methods Based on a DNC request (Reference 3), the Department included in Section 6(A) 8 of the draft permit certain analytical methods that are not defined in 40 CFR 136. DNC's review of this section indicated that Chlorine, Free Available was listed twice.

Accordingly, DNC suggests the following change to the last line of that section reflecting the analysis of Total Residual Chlorine as well as Free Available Chlorine: "and Chlorine, Free Available, Chlorine, Free Available Total Residual, SM 4500-CL G.

In addition, DNC questions whether it is possible to achieve the range within which check standards must be performed i.e., 10% of the free available or total residual chlorine minimum level of 30 ugh. Further guidance on this matter is requested from the Department.

G. Nitrogen Monitoring DNC requests that the Department review the proposed nitrogen species monitoring for DSNs OO1B-1, OO1B-6, OOlC-1 and OOlC-6. The CTDEP Long Island Sound nitrogen management program and the directive in Section 10(I) of the draft permit are focused towards point source nitrogen discharges of 20 lbs per day or greater. Because ethanolamine and hydrazine contribute over 95% of the nitrogen in these major nitrogen contributing pathways, and considering that these constituents are already monitored in these discharges, DNC requests reductions in monitoring for nitrogen species constituents, as detailed below.

Table G (DSN OOIB-1):

Similar to annual monitoring for hydrazine, DNC requests that the weekly sampling and analyses for nitrogen species (TKN, ammonia, nitrite/nitrate) be changed to an annual grab sample. DNC believes that the requirement for weekly sampling and analyses for these parameters is unnecessary as its contribution is less than 3 lbs. per day of nitrogen (see Reference 5).

D17510 5

Table N (DSN OOIB-6):

DNC requests that proposed weekly monitoring for nitrogen be changed to quarterly monitoring. Most of the nitrogen loading (>95%) results from ETA and hydrazine (see Reference 5, page 4), which are already being monitored at least weekly.

Table T (DSN OOJ C-1):

Similar to annual monitoring for hydrazine, DNC requests that weekly sampling and analyses for nitrogen species (TNK, ammonia, nitrite/nitrate) be changed to an annual grab sample. DNC believes that the requirement for weekly sampling and analyses for these parameters is unnecessary in the context of the small contribution, less than 8 lbs.

per day of nitrogen (see Reference 5).

Table Z (DSN 001 C-6):

DNC believes that weekly nitrogen monitoring should be changed to quarterly for the same reasons as presented for OOlB-6.

H. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) Monitoring DNC submits the following requests for changes to proposed TSS monitoring for certain discharges as detailed below. This request is justified based upon the overall data of compliance with permit limits for these discharges (see Application Addendum No. 4, dated January 3, 2003 Attachment E). For convenience, DNC has summarized this data on the attached Table 2.

Specifically, DNC requests that:

The mass limit for TSS for DSN OOIB-I (Table G) be deleted consistent with DSN OOIC-I (Table T), and the TSS monitoring be changed from weekly to annual monitoring; TSS monitoring for DSN 00 IC-I (Table T) be changed from weekly to annual monitoring; TSS monitoring for DSN OOIC-3 (Table W) be changed from weekly to annual monitoring; TSS monitoring for DSN OOIC4 (Table X) be changed from weekly to annual monitoring; TSS monitoring for DSN OO1C-6 (Table Z) be changed from weekly to annual consistent with DSN OO1B-6 (Table N);

TSS monitoring for DSN 006 (Table HH) be changed from weekly to monthly consistent with the oil & grease monitoring that is required monthly; D17510 6

TSS monitoring for DSN 001C-6(b) (Table BB) be changed from monthly to annual based on the nature of this discharge (Unit 3 auxiliary boiler blowdown) and to be consistent with the frequency of monitoring required for other similar low volume waste streams; and, TSS limits for DSNs 001B-1(a) & 001C-1(a) (Tables H and U, respectively) be made consistent with the 40 CFR 423.12 requirements for low volume waste streams of 100 mg/I maximum daily limit and 30 mg/I average monthly limit (during sludge lancing only).

I. Flow limitations The following responds to the Department's request for: 1) information relative to maximum daily flow at Units 2 and 3 and baseline flow utilized by DNC to calculate percent flow reduction during the winter flounder larval season, and 2) incorporation of a footnote in the permit to clarify flow requirements during the winter flounder larval season relative to the permit provisions suggested in Reference 4.

1) Flows The maximum daily flow limits in the draft permit dated July 24, 2003 for the Unit discharges into the Millstone quarry (DSNs 00111 and 001C) are based on information provided in the permit application Attachment A to Reference 2, updated from previous correspondence dated January 28, 1998 (see Table 4, Reference 5, attached). The maximum daily flows reflect the sum of condenser and service water pump design flows and all the upstream discharges. For Unit 2, the maximum daily flow in the draft permit is correctly shown as 844,550,000 gpd. For Unit 3, the draft permit correctly shows a maximum.daily flow of 1,410,600,000 gpd. In calculating these flows, it was assumed that all of the condenser cooling water pumps are operating as are all of the service water pumps. Unit 2 has four condenser cooling water pumps and three service water pumps.

Unit 3 has six condenser cooling water pumps and four service water pumps.

To determine the percent flow reduction during the winter flounder season under the DNC recommended Option 2 (Reference 4), the operating design cooling water flows for Units 2 and 3 were used. For background on flows used in the studies of alternative cooling water intakes, the Department is referred to page I-96 of the report entitled "An Evaluation of Alternative Cooling Water Intakes (the "Feasibility Study") submitted August 31, 2001 (Reference 6) and a subsequent letter dated October 3, 2002 (page 3, Revised Table 7.11-1 attached; Reference 7).

While the design values per cooling water pump are the same in the permit Application as in the Feasibility Study submittals, the referenced tables related to the Feasibility Study show that when operating, Unit 2 utilizes all 4 condenser cooling water pumps but only two of the three service water pumps. This provides a design operating cooling water flow of 572,800 gpm.

D17510 7

Unit 3 utilizes all six of the condenser cooling water pumps and two of the four service water pumps. This provides an operating design flow of 948,000 gpm.

The sum of the operating design cooling water flows for Units 2 and 3 (1,520,800 gpm) was used in Reference 4 to estimate the percent flow reduction and for purposes of establishing a permit provision for flow reduction i.e., the 30% three year rolling average (Paragraph A, page 7; Reference 4). Flow reduced, in gpm, for each of the annual scenarios within Option 2 evaluated were compared to 1,520,800 gpm to calculate percent reduction in cooling water flow.

By contrast, the proposed permit provision listed in paragraph C, page 7, Reference 4 is intended to provide the Department with an annual estimate of the reduction in larval winter flounder entrainment as a percentage compared to the number of larvae that would be entrained should Unit 2 and 3 have operated with the above design flows (1,520,800 gpm). In addition, DNC proposes to calculate the reduction in entrainment compared to the historic baseline assuming all three units at Millstone were operating a full operating design flow. DNC believes that the comparative entrainment baseline going forward should be the previously permitted operating flows from all three units (1,964,800 gpm).

The total reduction in entrainment will result from the operational changes in Option 2 for Units 2 and 3 as well as the shutdown of Unit 1.

2) Proposed additional permit language As requested, therefore, the following footnotes are suggested for incorporation in DSNs 001B and OIC.

Table F (DSN COJB) Footnote:

4For purposes of calculating the percent flow reduction achieved during the winter flounder larval season, April 4-May 14, the operating design flow is 572,800 gpm for Unit 2 and 1,520,800 gpm for Units 2 and 3. See Section 10 for the specific permit conditions related to flow reduction.

Table S (DSN 001C) Footnote:

4For purposes of calculating the percent flow reduction achieved during the winter flounder larval season, April 4-May 14, the operating design flow is 948,000 gpm for Unit 3 and 1,520,800 gpm for Units 2 and 3. See Section 10 for the specific permit conditions related to flow reduction.

J. Freon Process descriptions have been modified to reflect the possible presence of Freon in closed cooling waters and its subsequent occurrence in various discharge paths as a result X

of maintenance activities, system leakage or other operational situations such as the lifting of relief valves. The discharges include DSNs 001B-2-10, DSN 006 and DSNs 001C-2-9.

D17510 8

II. OTHER COMMENTS A. Section 3 DNC requests that the typographical error in Paragraph (E), second to last line, be changed. The word "an" should be changed to "and" in the sentence that reads as follows: "...fish and wildlife in an and on the receiving waters."

In Paragraph (F), DNC believes that the words "best available technology" should be replaced with "best technology available", consistent with 40 CFR 423.13.

B. Section 5 Table A (DSN 001-1):

DNC requests that Table A, remark 10, second sentence, be clarified to read as follows:

"The background sample for turbidity to determine compliance with the effluent limitation shall be a grab sample from the vicinity of the Millstone Harbor or the Environmental Laboratory Boat Dock." DNC believes that both locations are representative of background.

DNC requests that a new footnote or remark be added to Table A (DSN 001-1) as follows: 'Permittee shall maintain all free available chlorine and total residual

)s chlorine analytical data onsite and shall report on the DMR the lowest and highest values for each month." This is consistent with the chlorine recording and reporting requirements for DSNs 001B-5 and 001C-5.

Tables C and D (DSNs 00IA-1 and CO1A-2):

A revised Attachment 0 process description for DSN 001A-1 is included for DEP review in Appendix 6 to include "incidental system leakage from underwater cutting equipment using diethylene glycol as the hydraulic fluid in the cutting equipment, estimated at

<lppm".

DNC requests that the second to last line of the wastewater description in Table C (DSN 001A-1) be modified as follows: "...sluice water from the top and bottom of the beds associated with...".

DNC also requests that the monitoring location description for 001A-1 be clarified as follows: "Immediately following treatment; Sample tape tap off the effluent of the final in-line instrumentation."

In addition, DNC requests that the monitoring location description for OO1A-2 (Table D) be changed to be the same as the description for 001A-1 shown above, as this wastewater would be discharged through the same treatment system and pathway.

Also, with respect to DSNs 001A-1 and 001A-2, DNC requests that based on the Department's review of the process descriptions and Attachment 0 analytical results which were previously provided in Addendum No. 4 to the application, and the revised D17510 9

process descriptions attached to this letter, the monitoring requirements in Table D be consistent with Table C. These discharges are essentially the same. Specifically, monitoring for DSN 00lA-1 currently includes flow, pH, specific conductivity and total suspended solids (TSS) (Table C). DNC requests that the "empty" rows in Table C be deleted and that the monitoring for DSN OOIA-2 (Table D) be modified by deleting both the limits and monitoring for oil & grease, molybdenum, and zinc, thereby making these tables consistent.

Further, DNC requests that the monitoring for specific conductivity be deleted from the monitoring requirements at these Unit 1 discharges as this parameter is not relevant to the revised process description based on decommissioning wastewaters.

DNC believes that remarks 1 and 2 in Table D (DSN 001 A-2) should be deleted, as they are no longer applicable.

DNC also requests that the wastewater descriptions for both DSNs OOlA-l and OOIA-2 be modified to include the following: "In accordance with Section 4(H), stack sump water may be redirected to this alternative location." This source has been included as an input in the attached revised process descriptions (Appendix 6).

Table E (DSN OO1A-5):

DNC requests that Table E be deleted from the current draft permit. This discharge was associated with Unit 1 operation that, as a result of decommissioning, no longer exists.

Tables F (DSN OOJB) and S (DSN 001 C)

DNC requests that a new footnote or remark be added to Tables F and S (DSNs OIB and OO1C) as follows: "Permittee shall maintain all free available chlorine analytical

-data onsite and shall report on the DMR the lowest and highest values for each month." This is consistent with the chlorine recording and reporting requirements for DSNs 00lB-5 and OOlC-5.

Tables G (DSN OOIB-I) and T (DSN 001 C-i):

Table G (OOlB-1) lists hydrazine annual grab sampling under the "Instantaneous Monitoring" column; whereas, in Table T (OOIC-1), annual grab sampling occurs in both the "Flow/Time Based Monitoring"' and "Instantaneous Monitoring" columns. DNC requests that Table T be modified by removing "annual" and "grab" and replacing them with "NR" and "NA", respectively in the row for hydrazine under the column heading "Flow/Time Based Monitoring"'. This will make Tables T and G consistent.

For DSN 001 B-1, DNC requests that the monitoring location description be modified as follows: "Turbine Building sample tap for eaeh either steam generator, ef Auxiliary Building primary sample room valves, or recirculation pump down skid sample valve." (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

DNC also requests that footnote 3 in both Tables G and T be clarified to read as follows:

"Minimum Level Test refers to Section 6, Paragraph A(7)."

D17510 10

Table H (DSN OOJB-J(a)).

I DNC requests that the wastewater description be modified to include "sludge lancing".

Also, it appears that the notes in the column for "Sample//Reporting Frequency" are incorrect. "(see remark 6)" should be replaced with "(see remark 5)" and "(see remark 7)" should be replaced with "(see remark 6)". Also, it appears that remark 7 is not currently numbered as such and DNC requests that the number be inserted.

Tables Hand U(DSNs OOJB-l(a) & 001 C-i(a)):

DNC requests that the Department delete remark 1 in both Tables H and U. This remark precludes having two steam generators discharging wet layup at any one time. Because each generator is typically discharged over a 5 to 10 hour1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br /> period, the resulting concentrations of hydrazine in DSNs 0013B and 001C would be below any toxicity threshold. Please note that the total daily flow limits would remain.

DNC also requests that remark 6 in Table H (001B-l(a)) and remark 4 in Table U (001C-l(a)) be made consistent. Specifically, DNC suggests that remark 6 in Table H be changed to read the same as remark 4 in Table U. This includes sampling for copper, iron, lead, nickel, oil & grease, total suspended solids and zinc during steam generator sludge lancing.

To be consistent with this footnote, DNC requests that copper and iron be added to Table H as follows:

PARAMETER LIMITS & MONITORING Maximum Sample//Reporting Sample Type Instantaneous Limit Frequency' or Maximum Daily Flow Copper, Total

--- mg/l NR (see remark 6)

Grab Iron, Total

--- mg/l NR (see remark 6)

Grab and that copper, iron and lead be added to Table U as follows:

PARAMETER LIMITS & MONITORING Maximum Sample//Reporting Sample Type Instantaneous Limit Frequency' or Maximum Daily Flow Copper, Total

-- mg/l NR (see remark 4)

Grab Iron, Total mg/I NR (see remark 4)

Grab Lead, Total mg/I NR (see remark 4)

Grab In Table U, DNC also believes that remark 7 should be renumbered as remark 5. Similar to Table H, DNC also requests that "see remarks" in Table U be replaced with "see remark 3" for methoxypropylamine, and be replaced with "see remark 4" for Nickel, Total, Oil and Grease, Total, Total Suspended Solids and Zinc, Total.

D17510 11

Table I (DSN OOJB-2):

In Appendix 6, "Revised Process Descriptions", DNC has modified the process description for DSN OO1B-2 for completeness to include the following bullets:

Unit 3 Aux. Boiler system leakage and drains from maintenance activities Steam generator blowdown Roof drains Plant makeup water (pure water)

DNC does not believe these additions warrant any further changes to the permit as these items do not change the nature of the discharge or the potential chemicals present in the discharge. They are only added for purposes of completeness. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

DNC also requests that the last line of the wastewater description for DSN OO1B-2 be modified as follows: "Any wastewater redirected to this location from DSNs OOIA-1, 001A-2, stack sump water, 001B-2(a), 001B-2(b), OO1B-1, OO1B-l(a), OO1B-3, 001B-5, OOIB-9, OO1B-1 1, OOIB-10 or 006 condenser pit sumps must be done in accordance with Section 4(H)." These inputs have been included in the attached revised process description (Appendix 6).

Tables J. K and AA (DSNs OOJB-2(a). OOJB-2(b) and OOI C-6(a)):

As previously requested in Reference 1, it is requested that in lieu of the current language, the statement "See Section 10, Paragraph (D)" be inserted in these tables (Tables J & K, & AA) after:

  • Maximum Frequency of Discharge;
  • Expected Frequency; and
  • In the row for "Flow" (instead of specifying a number)

This is consistent with the row for "Maximum Flow per Batch" in these tables. Further, the activities will be defined (including wastewater flow) in a report to be submitted to the Department pursuant to Section 10, Paragraph (D).

Table L (DSN OO1B-3):

Consistent with the process descriptions and line diagrams in DNC's Application as amended in January 2003 (Reference 2), DSN OO1B-1 should be added to the wastewater description as a potential discharge that can be redirected to DSN OO1B-3. DNC is also requesting that DSN OO1B-I 1 be added to the wastewater description as a potential discharge that can be redirected to DSN OO1B-3. This would occur if wastewater from DSN OO1B-1 1 were radiologically contaminated. In addition, DNC is requesting that DSNs OOIA-1, OO1A-2 and stack sump water be added as potential discharges that can be redirected to DSN OO1B-3. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

The wastewater description would read as follows:

D17510 12

"Unit No. 2 Coolant Waste Monitor Tank Discharge: Wastewater from the auxiliary building, reactor building and reactor coolant sumps, aerated waste monitoring tanks, aerated waste collected in the coolant waste monitoring tank, and other radiological controlled areas during plant startup, operation, shutdown, incidental system leakage and maintenance. Unit 1 radiologically contaminated wastewaters. In accordance with 4(H),

steam generator blowdown (DSN 00113-1), sludge lancing and wet lay-up may be

.redirected from DSN 1B-1(a), the aerated waste drain tank (and all its inputs) from DSNs OO1A-1, 001A-2, stack sump water, 00113-2, 0013-9,006 (condenser pit sumps) 00113-2(a), OO1B-2(b), OO1B-11 and Unit 2 Turbine building sump may be redirected to this alternative location".

DNC requests that Remark 4 regarding arsenic monitoring, be deleted as arsenic has been deleted from the table as a constituent to be monitored. Consequently, the remarks should be renumbered and the references to remarks in the table be updated accordingly.

In Appendix 6, DNC has also modified the process description for DSN 00113-3 for completeness to include the following bullets:

Unit 3 Aux. Boiler system leakage and drains from maintenance activities Steam generator blowdown Groundwater in-leakage and roof drains Domestic water DNC does not believe these additions warrant any further changes to the permit as these items do not change the nature of the discharge or the potential chemicals present in the discharge. They are only added for completeness. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

Table M (DSN OOJB-5):

DNC requests that the monitoring location description for DSN 00113-5 be modified to read as follows: "Turbine building closed cooling heat exchangers sampling valve, reactor building closed cooling heat exchangers service water discharge piping manifold sampling valve, Of emergency diesel service water line sampling valve, or auxiliary building service water sample valves." (See process description in Appendix 6).

Tables M (DSN 0O1B-5) and Y (DSN 001 C-5):

DNC requests that the footnotes and remarks for these two tables be made consistent as follows.

DNC requests that Table Y, footnote 1 be changed to read the same as Table M, footnote 1.

DNC requests that remark I in Table M (001)3-5) and footnote 4 in Table Y (00 IC-5) that discuss chlorine monitoring to be conducted during periods of chlorination of the service water system be deleted. Because the service water systems are continuously chlorinated, DNC believes that this remark is confusing and unnecessary.

DNC requests that in Table M (DSN 001)3-5), remark 2 be renumbered as footnote 4 and the row for Chlorine, Free Available be modified to delete the reference to remark 2 and footnote 4 added as a superscript.

D17510 13

DNC requests that in Table Y (DSN OO1C-5), footnote 5 be renumbered as footnote 4.

As previously requested in Reference 1 for DSN OO1C-5, DNC requests that a new footnote 5 be added to both of these tables (OO1B-5 and OO1C-5) for clarification as follows: "Grab samples for Free Available Chlorine monitoring are composed of a flow proportioned average of the operating service water trains." As such, footnote 5 would be added in the row for Chlorine, Free Available as a superscript.

In addition, DNC also requests that the following language in the monitoring location description for DSN OOIC-5 (Table Y) be deleted: "Operating heat exchangers are sampled and results averaged for the total discharge."

Tables N and Z (DSNs 001B-6 and OOJC-6):

Because of the similar nature of the activities that produce these discharges, DNC submits the following requests to make the monitoring required for these discharges consistent.

DNC requests that pH limits for OO1C-6 (Table Z) be deleted, consistent with Table N for DSN OO1B-6.

DNC requests that the row for "Flow, Total" for DSN OO1B-6 be deleted and that remark 1 be changed to be the same as remark 1 for DSN OO1C-6. This will make the flow monitoring and recording requirements consistent between the two discharges.

DNC requests that zinc monitoring be deleted from DSN OO1C-6 since monitoring data provided to the Department (see Reference 1, Table 7) demonstrates that there is no reasonable potential for zinc to exceed water quality criteria in DSN 001-1 as a result of trace levels of zinc in DSN OOIC-6.

Finally with respect to the wastewater descriptions, DNC requests the following additions and changes to DSN OO1B-6 and OO1C-6 based on updated process descriptions (Appendix 6):

DSN OOIB-6 "Condensate Polisher Regeneration wastewater neutralization tank discharge:

Condensate polishing facility operation and maintenance wastewaterf including system area floor drains, vents, incidental leakage, and maintenance activity wastewater, resin regeneration and drain wastewater, condensate system polisher wastewater, fire water, waste evaporator feed tank water, service water (seawater), Unit 3 auxiliary boiler system steam and drainage from condensate recovery tank, domestic water, hot water heating system drainage, plant equipment domestic water wash water, feed water and condensate system drainage (secondary system), air conditioner and air compressor condensate drains, condenser pit sumps, condenser pit sumps GAC filter backwash, steam generator drainage from wet lay-up during startup, shutdown, plant operation, incidental system leakage, and maintenance. This discharge is essentially a batch discharge; however, some of the minor inputs are continuous. Continuous inputs include domestic water inputs from pump and fan seal water and sample sink D17510 14

)

drains. These inputs constitute minimum flow (less than 1 % per hour of tank volume, i.e., less than 250 gallons. In accordance with Section 4 (H), DSNOOlB-1(a) and condenser pit sumps may be redirected to this alternative location during plant operation and maintenance activities".

DSN OOJ C-6:

Unit 3 condensate polishing facility discharge: Unit 3 condensate polishing facility operation and maintenance wastewater including system area floor drains, vents, incidental leakage, maintenance activity wastewater, resin regeneration and drain wastewater, condensate polisher system wastewater, fire water, waste evaporator feed tank water, service water (seawater), steam generator wet layup drainage, hot water heating system drainage, secondary system drainage and air conditioner and air compressor condensate drains during plant start up, plant operation, shut down, incidental system leakage, 3ABD-TK-2 overflow and flow from 3ABD-TK-I or 3ABD-TK-2 and during maintenance activities. This discharge is essentially a batch discharge; however, some of the minor inputs are continuous. Continuous inputs include domestic water inputs from pump and fan seal water and sample sink drains. DSNs OO1B-6, OOlC-l(a), OOlC-6(b) may be redirected to this alternative location in accordance with Section 4(11).

Table 0 (DSN OOIB-8):

DNC again requests that the "Expected Frequency" be deleted from this table. As stated

)

in our letter dated January 22, 2003 (Reference 1), becaus6 volume limitations are specified and the activities are associated with start-up or shut down operations, DNC believes an "expected frequency" provision is unnecessary.

DNC also requests that the monitoring location description for DSN OO1B-8 be deleted and replaced with the following, which better describes the sample location: "Sample valves on the discharge piping of the condensers or sample valves on the discharge piping of the condensate pumps." (See revised process description in Attachment 1).

DNC also modified the process description to change the potential freon concentration from 50 ppb to 200 ppb.

Table P (DSN OOJB-9):

DNC requests that DSN OOlB-1 1 be added to the wastewater description as a potential discharge that can be redirected to DSN OO1B-9 (Table 1). In addition, DNC requests the following wording changes to further clarify the process waters described in the attached process descriptions:

"Unit No. 2 Closed Cooling Water System Drainage: Turbine building, reactor building closed cooling water drainage, chilled water system drainage, hydrolazing wastewaters, domestic water, demineralized water, service water and incidental system leakage during startup, plant operation and maintenance. In accordance with Section 4(H),

! RBGCCW that is normally directed to DSNs OOEB 5 and O1MB 8 may be redirected to this alternative location via the RBCCW sump during maintenanee activities, if radiologically D17510 15

I contaminated and requiring treatment at this location. 'In accordance with Section 4(H), DSNs 0010-5, 001B-8 and 001B-11 may be redirected to this alternate location.

DNC requests that monitoring for dichlorodifluoromethane be deleted from Table P because this freon is not used in Unit 2 closed cooling water systems. Similarly, it is requested that remark 2 be modified to delete the words "and dichlorodifluoromethane".

DNC also requests that the monitoring location description for DSN OOIB-9 be modified as follows for clarification purposes: "Sample valves for reactor or turbine building sample sink, ef turbine building closed cooling water heat exchangers in-auxiliary building primary sample room or local sample valves; chilled water heat exchanger local sample valves, reactor building closed cooling water heat exchangers sample valves, chilled water heat exchanger sample valves, or chill water pump discharge sample valves." (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

Table 0 (DSN OOJB-JO):

As previously requested in Reference 1, DNC requests that Table Q be modified as follows: under the "Sampling/Reporting Frequency" column for "Flow, Maximum", edit to read "Daily (see remark 1 )" and for "Flow, Total", edit to read "Weekly (see remark 1".

DNC also requests that the wastewater description for DSN OOIB-10 be modified to include "Unit 2 feed and condensate drains", as they are a significant input to this discharge during outages.

DNC has also modified the process description for DSN OOlB-10 for completeness to include the following bullet:

Waterbox drains, incidental system leakage and maintenance activities DNC does not believe these additions warrant any further changes to the permit as these items do not change the nature of the discharge or the potential chemicals present in the discharge. They are only added for completeness. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

Tables 0 and R (DSNs OOIB-1O and OOJB-1 1):

It appears that the notes in the column "Sample//Reporting Frequency" for methoxypropylamine and molybdenum are incorrect. They state "(see remark 3)" and

"(see remark 4)" respectively, this should be corrected to "(see remark 2)" and "(see remark 3).

Table R (DSN OOJB-1):

DSN OO1C-9 should be deleted and replaced with DSN OO1B-9 as a potential discharge that can be redirected to DSN 001B-1 1. This was requested by DNC (Reference 1) and we believe it was a typographical error that OOlC-9 was added in lieu of OOIB-9. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

D17510 16

DNC has modified the process description for DSN OOlB-I 1 for completeness to include the following bullets:

Unit 3 Aux. Boiler system leakage and drains from maintenance activities Plant makeup water (pure water)

Roof drains DNC does not believe these additions warrant any further changes to the permit as these items do not change the nature of the discharge or the potential chemicals present in the discharge. They are only added for completeness. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

Table S (DSN OOC):

Quarterly monitoring for ethanolamine was not removed from the draft permit for DSN 001C (Table S) as previously requested and discussed with the Department. For the reasons presented in Reference 1 (page 8, paragraph D), and as further discussed in Reference 2, DNC requests that ethanolamine monitoring be deleted so that monitoring requirements for DSNs O01B and OOIC are consistent.

Table U (DSN OOJ C-I (a):

DNC requests that the monitoring location description for DSN OOIC-1(a) be modified as.

follows: "Sampling valve on the wet lay up recirculation pump skid discharge piping and drain valve for each steam generator recirculation header in the Unit 3 containment building, or the main steam valve building discharge header." This will allow flexibility when the recirculation pump skid is not available or accessible. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

Table V(DSNOOIC-2):

DNC requests that specific conductivity be deleted from monitoring at DSN OO1C-2.

Specific conductivity is not relevant for this discharge in that it has no environmental significance relative to this low volume waste stream discharge to seawater. DNC also requests that lithium monitoring be deleted because lithium has not been detected in this discharge over the period of record as presented in Attachment E of the Application Addendum No. 4.

Table X (DSN OOJ C4):

DNC requests that the wastewater description be modified to include "condenser cleaning wastewater, hydrolazing, and incidental system leakage."

Table BB (DSN OOIC-6(b)):

DNC requests that oil & grease monitoring for DSN OOIC-6(b) be changed from monthly to annual based on the nature of this discharge (Unit 3 auxiliary boiler blowdown). DNC also slightly modified the wording in the attached modified process description.

D17510 17

Table CC (DSN OOJC-8):

DNC modified the process description to change the potential freon concentration from 50 ppb to 200 ppb.

Tables EE and FF (DSNs 003 and 003a):

The wastewater descriptions for the screen wash water are identical except for the discharge path. DSN 003a is the fish and invertebrate return trough. DSN 003 is the existing screen wash trash basket with its own adjacent discharge. As a result, DNC is suggesting that wastewater description for DSN 003a be modified to read as follows:

"Unit 2 fish and invertebrate return trough discharge including wastewaters incorporated in DSN 003" (Appendix 6).

In addition, DNC is asking that the DSN 003 Wastewater Description be modified as follows:

"Unit No. 2 Screen Washwater Discharges, including non-chlorinated seawater taken from the intake used to wash down the traveling screens in all intake bays and domestic water from wash downs and hydrolazing activities, domestic water used as bearing lube water for screenwash pumps, system leakage and maintenance activities during startup, operation and shutdown, screen wash strainer backwash, intake desilting wastewaters, service water pump header discharge and strainer backwash, and fire water used in an emergency to clean the traveling screens. These discharges are normally directed to the Unit 2 fish return (DSN 003a) through the fish and invertebrate return trough".

Tables HH and HH-T (DSN 006-1):

DNC requests that the wastewater descriptions in both these tables be modified to include the following: "Unit 2 and Unit 3 emergency diesel generator room floor drains through oil/water separators; transformer area yard drains through oil/water separators; and generator stator cooling drains." These items were included in the process description for DSN 006 in the Application, Addendum No. 4, and DNC feels they are significant enough to warrant inclusion in the text of the wastewater description. (See revised process description in Appendix 6).

Table HH-T (DSN 006-1):

Consistent with Section 6(A)(3), DNC requests that the Minimum Level for Chlorine, Total Residual be changed to 30 ug/l.

Table H.-

DSN 011 presently consists of stormwater drainage from parking areas and a stonrwater impoundment area, and of fire suppression system discharges. This DSN is currently listed in the station's existing NPDES permit and is included in Table II of the draft NPDES permift. As a result of the construction of Millstone's Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), the drainage area associated with this discharge will be reconfigured and the activities occurring within the drainage area will change as a result.

Therefore, this discharge will be eligible for coverage under the CTDEP's General Permit for the Discharge of Stormwater Associated with Industrial Activity. DNC therefore D17510 18

requests that DSN 011 be deleted from Table II in the NPDES permit. Upon issuance of the NPDES permit, DNC will modify their current registration to include DSN 011 under the Industrial Stormwater General Permit (similar to DSNs 005, 007, 009, 012, 015 and 016).

Table KK (Monitoring Site No. 001):

DNC requests that remark 3 in Table KK be coordinated with remark 10 in Table A for consistency. Specifically, DNC requests that remark 3 in Table KK be changed to read as follows: "Turbidity and Total Suspended Solids monitoring is only required on days when desilting operations wastewater from either Unit 2 or Unit 3 is discharged to the Quarry. The background sample for turbidity to determine compliance with effluent limitations shall be a grab sample from the vicinity of the Millstone Harbor or the Environmental Laboratory Boat Dock."

Table MM:

DNC requests that the word "grab" be changed to "composite" in the second line in the row for "physical-chemical measurements of composite effluent sample and control. This is consistent with the sampling requirements of daily composite samples.

C. Section 7 Paragraph (6):

- A DNC requests that "total dissolved nitrogen" be deleted from this section, making this list of testing analytes consistent with the lists in Tables MM and NN.

D. Miscellaneous Sacrificial Anodes used at the Intake Structures DNC has modified and attached the process descriptions for DSNs 003, 003-A, 004, 006, 001-B and 001-C to describe the use of cathodic protection systems at the station. These systems are in place at the Unit 2 and Unit 3 intake structures. In addition, there are other impressed current cathodic protection systems in place in other areas at the station, such as the condenser waterboxes, and galvanic protection at some oil/water separators.

At both intake structures, impressed current anodes and electrodes are located in the water at the outermost part of the intake bays to minimize corrosion to the trash racks and intake pumps. At Unit 2, there are 24 anodes made of silver, antimony and lead and 8 electrodes made of zinc. At Unit 3, there are 12 electrodes made of silver-silver/chloride, 72 high silicon cast iron anodes and 32 platinum clad niobium anodes.

The anodes and electrodes are inspected periodically and are replaced if the anode/electrode is less than one-half the original size. Therefore, DNC does not believe there is a need to modify any wastewater descriptions or monitoring in the draft permit; however, DNC seeks to add this activity description to the above-referenced process descriptions for the purposes -of completeness.

D17510 19

Fire Water Flush and Flow Test DNC performs a flush and flow test of the station's main fire protection system periodically to ensure operability. Recently, DNC obtained a Temporary Authorization for this activity. The Temporary Authorization Application submitted to the Department (Reference 8) provided a detailed description of this activity. Going forward, DNC would like to have this activity covered in the NPDES permit so that a Temporary Authorization is not required for this activity after the NPDES permit is issued. As such, we have provided below a brief description of this activity, including where in the permit DNC is requesting this activity be authorized. Additional details and best management practices (BMPs) were included in Reference 9.

DNC requests the flexibility to conduct this activity once per year. This activity is performed in two phases: (1) the flushing of sediment; and (2) the testing of flow from five (5) major loops within the station's fire protection system underground main, and a sixth test where all the loops are open, thus restoring the system to normal alignment.

Millstone has two 250,000-gallon fire water storage tanks that are filled automatically via a connection to the City of New London water system. Each phase of this activity is described in more detail below.

Flush Phase of Fire Water System Test:

This phase consists of the flushing of fire water from the system at a high flow rate to remove sediment and corrosion byproducts from the 5 major piping loops and sixth test configuration (all loops open). A large holding tank (approximately 20,000 gallons) is used to initially collect the water and allow settling and collection of sediment.

Subsequently, this water is pumped, at a much lower flow rate, through a series of filter socks onto a grassed area east of the Unit 3 Intake Structure. The majority of this water runs off from the grassed area then reaches the last catch basin prior to discharge to Niantic Bay for DSN 006, although some water could enter other catch basins in the vicinity that all discharge to Niantic Bay. The last catch basin for DSN 006 is located immediately adjacent to the Unit 3 Intake Structure and is downstream of the NPDES dry weather flow sampling and flow monitoring location for this discharge. The catch basins are protected with hay bales during this activity.

Flow Phase of Fire Water System Test:

The flow phase of this testing utilizes a bank of four nozzles connected to a fire hydrant located between the Units 1 and 2 Intake Structures. The flow is measured to assure it meets the NRC Safety Technical Specifications. Flow is directed over the perimeter security fence onto an area of rock outcrop and directly into Niantic Bay between the Units 1 and 2 Intake Structures. This flow test is conducted for each of the 5 major piping loops as well as the sixth test configuration (all loops open). The combined total flow from the flush and flow phases of the test is estimated to be less that 2,800 gpm.

The total flow is expected to be less than 250,000 g/day. Measurements of pH taken from samples collected at the start of previous flow tests indicate that pH is typically less than 9.5 pH units.

D17510 20

Potential Constituents in Discharge:

The fire water storage tanks are stabilized, meaning new city water additions are minimized, for the week prior to conducting this activity. During the testing, tank volume turnover will result in more city water makeup being added to the system.

Constituents that could be present in the water discharging from this activity include domestic water constituents (chlorine and zinc). In addition, Bulab 6002, which may be used for biofouling control in the fire water system in the future, may be present in this water.

Requested NPDES Permit Changes:

DNC requests coverage of this activity in the NPDES permit. DNC has modified the process description for DSN 006 to include the flush phase of this test, and for DSN FW to include the flow phase of this test. (See revised process descriptions in Appendix 6).

With respect to the NPDES permit, DNC requests that the wastewater description for DSN 006 (Tables HH and HH-T) be modified such that the words "fire suppression system discharges" be replaced with "fire suppression system discharges, includingflush phase of fire water system test".

DNC also requests that the wastewater description in Table FW be modified such that the words "Fire suppression system discharges" be replaced with "Fire suppression system discharges, includingflow phase of fire water system test". Also in Table FW, DNC requests that the discharge serial numbers listing be modified to include the following:

"fire water system flow test to Niantic Bay".

3) Letter from S.E. Scace toD. Cherico datedNovember 21, 1997 (D11716).

Dear Mr. Cherico:

Thank you for meeting with Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (NNECo) representatives on Wednesday January 21, 1998 to discuss various matters related to NNECo's National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit application dated June 13, 1997.

As discussed with you at that time, we have prepared this letter to respond to questions you raised in References I and 2, and to update and clarify discharge flow information previously submitted in Reference 3.

In response to Reference 1 above, we have prepared a summary of how various waste streams at the Millstone Nuclear Power Facility are generated, collected, and treated. This information is presented in Tables 1 and 2 attached. Table I presents those point source discharges from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) development document for the Steam Electric Power Generating industry that you referenced which are either not applicable to nuclear generating units or are not present at Millstone Units 1, 2, or 3. Table 2 presents those discharge categories which are present at Millstone.

0S3422-9 REV. 12.93

I In response to Reference 2 above, we have also prepared Table 3 which presents our estimated five day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) concentrations for any discharges for which we are requesting authorization to discharge LCS 1000, Conquor 3585 or carbohydrazide at the time of permit renewal. Consistent with discussions at our meeting with you, we have estimated both expected and worst case BOD5 concentrations where appropriate.

Where literature references have not been found, chemical oxygen demand (COD) values have been calculated based on the referenced chemical formula, and a typical BOD5 to COD ratio of 0.5 has been assumed. The flows used for the various potential discharge points for LCS 1000 and Conquor 3585 are consistent with the flows previously described in our response to your initial information Request No. 22 of October 4, 1997. The potential future use of Conquor 3585 in Unit 3 auxiliary boiler and LCS 1200 in Unit 3 closed cooling water systems has also been addressed. The BOD5 contribution of Conquor 3585 in Unit 3 discharges (006 and 001C-6(b)) for this use would be the same as that calculated for the other use points (<1 mg/L BOD5). LCS 1200 has similar chemical composition to LCS 1000, except that the tolyltriazole concentration is only 0.5 percent by weight. The estimated BOD5 in an undiluted wastewater stream would then be 30 mg/L.

Potential discharge points of LCS 1200 for Unit 3 would be Discharge Serial Numbers (DSN) 001C-2, 001C-3, 001C-4, or 001C-9. Some reduction of BOD5 would be realized through the treatment (demineralizers) employed for DSN 001C-2.

Pursuant to our previous discussions, we have also reviewed and refined the Unit Maximum Daily Flows previously submitted as an attachment to Reference 3. These revised flows are presented in Table 4.

We anticipate, as discussed with you, that we will be submitting Addendum No. I to NNECo's NPDES permit application dated June 13, 1997 on or before January 30, 1998.

Should you have any questions, please call Mr. Paul Jacobson, Manager Environmental Services - Nuclear at (860) 447-1791 extension 2335. We are available to meet and discuss our responses with you at your convenience.

Very truly yours, NQRTMA SCLEAOMPANY F. C. Rothen Vice President -N ear Work Services cc:

Description:==

This discharge will consist of approximately 500,000 gallons of Unit I decommissioning wastewaters from the Unit 1 Reactor Pressure Vessel Cavity Pool drain down and associated sources described above. Pressure washers utilizing demineralized water will be used to wash down the interior walls of the Reactor Pressure Vessel Cavity Pool. The Pool itself will be used as the "treatment tank" to process and recirculate the water within the Pool until it meets applicable discharge limits. A skid-mounted modular filtration processing system consisting of two independent parallel trains will be used to treat the water to remove radioactivity prior to discharge. The processing skid will be located on the refueling floor adjacent to the Reactor Pressure Vessel Cavity Pool. The treatment trains each consist of one 75 gpm processing pump and two 45 ft3 vessels containing granular activated carbon and mixed bed demineralizer resins, respectively. Downstream of the demineralizer vessels' discharge, the trains join and flow through in-line conductivity and pH meters.

Downstream from this instrumentation, a diverter valve allows for discharge back to the reactor pressure vessel cavity for additional processing and recirculation. The discharge is either continuously radiologically monitored or manually sampled in duplicate prior to discharge. Once processed, this water will be discharged via the previous DSN 001A-5 pathway (adjacent to the Unit 1 discharge tunnel) to the Quarry for co-mingling with DSNs 001B and 001C prior to discharge through DSN 001-1.

Description:==

Unit No. 2 Discharge including DSNs OOIB-l through OOIB-12: Unit 2 condenser non-contact cooling water, intake pump seal and lubricating water, miscellaneous cooling water system leakage and drainage, hydrolazing, drainage of plant systems and components during start-up, shutdown, plant operation, intake desilting discharge, intake bay maintenance and dewatering activities, service water strainer backwash, incidental system leakage, and maintenance. The Unit 2 intake desilting wastewater is discharged to the circulating water tunnel either through the condenser pumps through the condenser or through other pipes to the seal well.

Four motor driven wet pit pumps rated at 137,200 gpm each pumps the water from the intake structure through the main (titanium) condenser and discharge into the quarry. Service water (at a rate of approximately 11 to 16 gpm) is used as bearing lube/seal water for the circulating water pumps. This system is equipped with a cathodic protection system. Certain components of the circulating and service water systems are epoxy coated. Contributing processes include screening and chlorination of Long Island Sound water (Niantic Bay).

The water is passed through an initial trash rack and four traveling screens located inside the intake structure.

The screens are designed to prevent debris larger than 3/8 inch from passing into circulating water pump, condenser and service water pumps. A sodium hypochlorite feed system capable of chlorinating circulating water on a shock treatment basis is provided.

The shock chlorination process consists of pumping hypochlorite into the intake bay between the intake structure trash racks and traveling screens via a diffusion pipe system. This process lasts for a maximum of two hours per day when it occurs. The circulating water chlorination system is capable of injecting sodium hypochlorite solution The traveling screen wash pump in the affected bay is secured (off) during shock chlorination to prevent chlorinated seawater from being discharged through DSN 003. Periodically, the hypochlorite injection system is flushed with domestic water to remove crystallized sodium hypochlorite.

The screen wash pumps use seawater for screen washing. In an emergency, fire water or domestic water may be used as screen wash water.

Discharge Information Response to Part A, Question 7-Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. 5 DSN GO1B - UNIT 2 CIRCULATING WATER (continued).

If necessary to prevent icing of the water in and around the intake structure, a portion of the circulating water (approximately 100,000 gpm from downstream of the condensers) is redirected into the intake bay through a pipe located at the intake structure. This procedure occurs very rarely.

Normal operating procedures include, as needed to maintain efficiency, the elevation of intake water temperature in each intake bay by a thermal backwash process for biofouling control. An ambient temperature backwash with intake water may be also be conducted to maintain efficiency. These condenser backflushes are performed to remove debris from the condenser tubes, waterbox tubesheets, and the inlets of the circulating water system. They last for short periods (5 to.10 minutes) and are normally performed during storm events (or shortly after) or following a thermal backwash, to remove debris from these areas. The backflush is accomplished by recirculating water within ode-half of a condenser by closing the condenser discharge valve, causing a flow reversal.

Service water strainer backwash is directed to an operating intake bay such that it is taken in by either an operating circulating water or service water pump.

Other maintenance activities at the intake structure include:

  • General cleaning (washing down walls, floors, etc.). Domestic water and mild soaps are used for general cleaning. These wash waters are directed into the intake bay through floor drains.

General cleaning of the area adjacent to the intake structure. Domestic water is used to wash down the area and is discharged to the intake structure.

This discharge is continuous and may include:

  • This discharge represents steam generator blowdown water sampled directly from the steam generators prior to concentration in the blowdown tank. Because of the loss of discharge volume in the blowdown tank caused by evaporation, the discharge is approximately 30 percent more concentrated than what is sampled. However, the corresponding mass discharge calculated based on flow and concentration at the sample location is accurate. The increase in concentration is balanced by this reduction in volume.
  • This system also can receive effluent from steam generator wet lay-up drainage during maintenance activities (unit shutdown/startup), 00 lB-1 (a).
  • Chill water samples (during Unit operations from secondary sample sink) which may contain hydrazine and Freon (R22, chlorodifluoromethane or other future refrigerants not listed in 22a-430-3, Appendix B &

The discharge from the blowdown quench tank would consist only of the secondary sample sink drains (see Figure 9B) during normal operation. The discharge from the blowdown quench tank would by-pass the heat exchanger when only sample sink drains are entering the quench tank.

==

Description:==

Steam generator wet lay up drainage for maintenance, plant start up and shut down, hot standby and shutdown, chemical control and sludge lancing.

Wet lay-up is performed on the secondary side steam generator to minimize corrosion of a steam generator internals. Wet lay-up is a condition where the steam generators are filled with water and may, or may not, contain elevated levels of hydrazine and ammonium hydroxide depending on the need to scavenge oxygen and control pH. Sometimes ethanolamine is added to wet lay-up to control pH. This chemical feed and drain is performed to maintain water chemistry control within the steam generators. Drainage to the blowdown tank is directed to the circulating water tunnel. System drains are performed when the unit is shutdown, during system maintenance or prior to start-up.

Also, during periods of start-up, hot standby, and hot shutdown, plant configuration prevents placement of the condensate polishers into the water feeding the steam generators. To maintain adequate corrosion protection, an elevated concentration of hydrazine is maintained in the steam generators (approximately 10 ppm). During the start-up, hot standby, and hot shutdown periods, a maximum of 250 gpm of blowdown is discharged. The blowdown typically contains about 10 ppm of hydrazine and about 3 ppm of ethanolamine. The start-up, hot standby, and hot shutdown periods may last for extended periods.

Alternate paths for this discharge include:

Steam generator wet lay-up can be directed to DSN 001B-1 during maintenance.

In the event of steam generator lay-up water becoming radiologically contaminated, steam generator lay-up may be directed to the containment sump and from there to either the aerated waste treatment system and discharged through DSN 00113-2 or to the clean liquid radioactive waste system and discharged through DSN 001B-3.

Discharge Information Response to Part A, Question 7 - Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. S DSN 00113 UNIT 2 COOLANT WASTE MONITORING TANK (Continued).

The Clean Liquid Radioactive Waste processing system is designed for the processing of Reactor Coolant system (RCS) waste concurrent with the letdown flow from the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS). Reactor coolant is diverted to this system from the CVCS when changes in the RCS inventory or boron concentration are necessitated by Unit startups, shutdowns, and refueling. The equipment area drains and associated systems are treated using a filter to reduce insoluble particulates.

)

The liquid waste is then processed through one of two primary demineralizers. Demineralizer effluent flows to one of two coolant waste receiver tanks. The two receiver tanks provide storage for liquid wastes. The contents of the coolant waste receiver tanks are processed through an optional three-stage filter train during periods of high waste activity. One filter contains activated charcoal media for improved cobalt removal. The second filter contains a coarse media cartridge and the third filter contains a fine media cartridge. Each filter has a bypass to allow removal from the process when not required based on waste chemistry. The effluent of the three-stage filter train will be able to be aligned to a pair of proposed test demineralizer vessels. These demineralizers are able to be aligned for the purpose of testing improved resin media prior to installing larger primary or secondary demineralizer vessels. The wastewater will then enter a pair of secondary demineralizer vessels. One secondary demineralizer contains a mix bed and the other is loaded with ion specific resin based on water chemistry.

These demineralizers can be operated independently or in series as a method of optimizing the processing cycle. The effluent from the secondary demineralizers can either be returned to the receiver tanks to further polish the wastewater or directed to the coolant waste monitor tanks. Prior to discharging to the circulating water tunnel, the effluent is sampled and processed through a coolant waste final filter. Radiation monitoring is performed prior to discharge. If sampling indicates further processing is required to meet Millstone Administrative discharge goals, the effluent can either be directed back to the receiver tanks or monitor tanks.

Alternate paths for this discharge include:

The coolant waste monitor tank can also be pumped to the Aerated Waste Drain Tank and discharged through DSN 001IB-2. Also, some inputs may be redirected to the Unit 1 Evaporator System storage tank that can be an input to DSN 001A-1 or 001A-2.

The service water system provides cooling water to the Reactor Building Closed Cooling (RBCCW); Turbine Building Closed Cooling (TBCCW); and diesel engine cooling water, chilled water system heat exchangers, vital switch gear room cooling coils, circulating water pump bearing water, and supplies dilution flow to the sodium hypochlorite system. Two service water pumps (rated at 12,000 gpm each) are located within the intake structure and take suction from and discharge to Long Island Sound (Niantic Bay). A third service water pump is available as a backup. Sodium hypochlorite solution is continuously injected to the service water pump suction. Periodically, the hypochlorite injection system is flushed with domestic water to remove crystallized sodium hypochlorite. The service water pumps continuously use chlorinated service water for seal/bearing lubrication. Fire water can be used instead of service water for the emergency diesel generator heat exchanger during an emergency. Chlorination is shut off during backwash of service water strainers.

Alternate paths for this discharge:

Service water from the TBCCW heat exchanger draining can be directed to DSN OOIB-10 during maintenance activities.

Service water from the RBCCW sump can be directed to DSN 001B-2 (if radiologically contaminated) or 0011B-1 I (if not radiologically contaminated) during maintenance activities. Service water from the TBCCW heat exchanger normally directed to DSN OOIB-5 can be redirected to DSN OO1B-9.

Description:==

Unit 2 condensate polishing facility operation including system area floor drains, vents, incidental leakage, and maintenance activity wastewater, resin regeneration and drain wastewater, condensate system polisher wastewater, fire water, waste evaporator feed tank water, service water (seawater), Unit 3 auxiliary boiler system steam and drainage from condensate recovery tank, domestic water, hot water heating system drainage, plant equipment domestic water washwater, feed water and condensate system drainage (secondary system) and blowdown, air conditioner and air compressor condensate drains, condenser pit sumps, condenser pit sumps GAC filter backwash, steam generator drainage from wet lay-up during startup, shutdown, plant operation, and incidental system leakage, and maintenance. This discharge is essentially a "batch" discharge; however, some of the minor inputs are continuous. Continuous inputs include domestic water inputs from pump and fan seal water and sample sink drains. These inputs constitute minimal flow (less than 1%/per hour of tank volume, i.e., less than 250 gallons).

) : Discharge Information Response to Part A, Question 7 - Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. S DSN 001B UNIT 2 CONDENSATE POLISHER (TK 10&11) (continued).

During normal power operations, full condensate system flow is directed through the condensate demineralizers. The condensate demineralizers removes impurities from condenser tube leakage, primary to secondary leakage, and the corrosion of condensatelfeedwater system piping and components.

The Condensate Polishing Facility (CPF) waste neutralization sumps (TI O & 11) are lined with a chemically-resistant ceramic brick liner and have a capacity of 25,000 gallons each. The sumps are primarily used to receive waste water associated with resin cleaning and the regeneration process. The CPF consists of seven service vessels and eight resin charges. During plant operations six of the vessels are in service. The seventh service vessel and resin charge are in standby; the eighth resin charge is being cleaned and regenerated. Each charge consists of approximately 80 cubic feet of cation resin and 120 cubic feet of anion resin. Flow through each service vessel is a nominal 3,000 gallons per minute. The influent water contains residual ethanolamine, ammonia and hydrazine.

The polishers are operated until the resin effluent shows an increase in amine concentration and specific conductivity. The exhausted charge is then transferred to the regeneration room where it is cleaned and the resins are regenerated using sulfuric acid (cation) and sodium hydroxide (anion).

Regeneration waste waters (including transfer, cleaning, regeneration, rinse and soak) are neutralized prior to discharge to Long Island Sound. Hydrazine treatment is practiced utilizing air sparging and/or hydrogen peroxide addition in Tanks 10 and 11.

Alternate paths for this discharge include:

This discharge can also be directed to Unit 3 via the CPF liquid radwaste system and discharged through DSN OOIC-6. DSN OOIB-1(a) can also be directed to this discharge as an alternate pathway.

DSNs 001B-5, 001B-8 and 00IB-I I can be redirected to this discharge as an alternate pathway.

Reactor Building Closed Cooling (RBCCW)

(See Figure 3B)

The RBCCW system consists of two independent headers, each including one motor driven RBCCW pump, one RBCCW heat exchanger, with a shared RBCCW surge tank. A third RBCCW pump and heat exchanger is provided as a spare for the system. The RBCCW is cooled in the RBCCW heat exchangers by service water (seawater). Demineralized water is used for makeup water and comes from the primary water storage tank.

Makeup water is supplied to the RBCCW surge tank. Hydrazine can be injected into the RBCCW system to increase the corrosion inhibitor concentration during normal operations.

External leaks and drains are collected by the drains system and processed through the radwaste processing system. Relief valves are discharged to auxiliary building sumps.

Turbine Building Closed Cooling Water (TBCCW)

(See Figure 4B)

The TBCCW system provides cooling water to the auxiliary equipment located in the Turbine Building. The TBCCW system removes heat from the turbine components and sample coolers. The system transfers the heat to the service water system in the TBCCW heat exchangers (3). During normal operation two pumps and two heat exchangers are operating. The third heat exchanger and pump would operate upon failure of an operating pump or heat exchanger or during times of high service water temperatures. The system has a surge tank and a hydrazine feed tank where chemical additions are made to maintain water chemistry. The components cooled by the TBCCW system are shown on Figure 4B. TBCCW is drained during maintenance to the condenser pit sumps through the turbine building floor drains and pumped to the seal well via the 16-inch standpipe. The TBCCW can also be drained directly to the 16-inch standpipe (DSN OOIB-10).

Description:==

Unit 3 discharge, including DSNs OOIC-l through DSN 001C-9: Non-contact cooling water discharge from Unit 3 circulating water pumps/condenser system, intake pump operation discharges (seal, lube and strainer backwash water) returned to intake bays, and miscellaneous cooling water system leakage and drainage of plant systems and components during plant start up, shutdown, plant operation, intake desilting discharge, intake bay maintenance and dewatering activities, incidental system leakage and maintenance.

Six-153,000 gpm motor driven wet pit pumps are located in the Unit No. 3 intake house. These pumps circulate the water through the intake structure, into the main condensers, and discharge into the quarry. This system is equipped with a cathodic protection system and certain components of the circulating and service water systems are epoxy coated. The circulating water is drawn through traveling screens and chlorinated on the suction side of the circulating water pumps. The screens are designed to prevent debris larger than 3/8 inch from passing into the circulating water, condenser and service water pumps. The sodium hypochlorite system is located in the intake structure and functions to chlorinate the circulating water on a shock treatment basis.

The sodium hypochlorite solution is injected between the intake structure trash racks and traveling screens via a diffusion pipe system. The screenwash pumps are secured (off) when shock treating the intake bays to prevent chlorination of discharge DSN 004. Periodically, the hypochlorite injection system is flushed with domestic water to remove crystallized sodium hypochlorite.

Lubricating water (including pump leakoff water) provides lubrication and sealing of the circulating pump shafts. The water supply is salt water from Niantic Bay that flows from the service water pumps and, therefore, contains residual chlorine. When a circulating pump is taken off line, the lubrication water flow can continue for a short time, discharging into the pump's intake bay.

If necessary to prevent icing of the water in and around the intake structure, a portion of the circulating water (approximately 100,000 gpm from downstream of the condensers) is redirected into the intake bay through a pipe located at the intake structure. This procedure occurs very rarely.

>generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. S DSN OO1C - UNIT 3 DISCHARGE (continued).

Normal operating procedures include, as needed to maintain efficiency, the elevation of intake water temperature in each intake bay by a thermal backwash process for biofouling control. An ambient temperature back flush with intake water may be also be conducted to maintain efficiency. These condenser backflushes are performed to remove debris from the condenser tubes, waterbox tubesheets, and the inlets of the circulating water system. They last for short periods (5 to 10 minutes) and are normally performed during storm events (or shortly after) or following a thermal backwash, to remove debris from these areas. The backflush is accomplished by recirculating water within one-half of a condenser by closing the condenser discharge valve, causing a flow reversal.

  • Supply cooling water to the service water system during maintenance and emergency operations.

==

Description:==

Unit No. 3 Steam generator blowdown and wastewater collected in the steam generator blowdown tank prior to discharge to DSN 00 IC.

Recycled condensate from the condensate polishing facility (CPF) and make-up water (from the Ionics system) are treated in the feedwater system with hydrazine, ethanolamine and possibly ammonium hydroxide to maintain secondary plant chemistry. The steam generators operate with continuous blowdown. In closed cycle blowdown, steam generator blowdown water flows back to the condenser hotwell and then to the CPF where the water is purified. Over time, organic acids (a byproduct of ethanolamine) build up in the steam generators because they are not efficiently removed in the CPF. Periodically, the steam generators are placed

)

in open cycle blowdown and discharged via the steam generator blowdown tank and DSN 001C-I. This discharge also includes steam generator blowdown during startup, hot standby, operation and shutdown. Also, this discharge includes steam generator draining, refilling and draining again during shutdown and refueling to speed cooling. DSN OOIC-I(a) can be redirected to this discharge as an alternative pathway.

When the plant is shut down, the steam generators may be filled with clean water for cooling, and inspected, repaired and/or cleaned (sludge lanced) with high pressure water. To support these operations, the steam generators may be drained via the blowdown discharge path.

In the future, Unit 3 may investigate the use of alternate steam generator treatment methods. These methods will include boric acid, ammonium chloride and alternate amines (listed below).

Alternate Flowpaths for this Discharge:

The steam generators can also be drained to the containment sump and pumped to the high level waste drain tanks (DSN OO1C-2) or low level waste drain tanks (DSN 001C-3).

The steam generator blowdown tank can also be directed to DSN OO1C-8 during startup, shutdown and maintenance.

This discharge includes:

Steam generator drainage for maintenance Steam generator drainage for chemical control Steam generator sludge lancing drainage System leakage, drains, building drains, relief valve flows, maintenance activities including hydrolazing water washes, sludge lancing, sump discharges, and incidental system leakage during startup, shutdown, operation, and maintenance.

==

Description:==

Unit 3 steam generator wet lay up drainage for maintenance, plant start up and shut down, hot standby and shutdown, chemical control and sludge lancing. As an alternate pathway, the Unit 3 steam generator wet lay up drainage may be directed to the Unit 3 condensate demineralizer waste neutralization sumps or the high or low level waste drain tanks in the Unit 3 liquid radioactive waste systems.

During periods of reactor shutdown, the steam generators may be maintained in a wet lay up condition. Wet lay up is a condition where steam generators are completely filled with water and may or may not contain elevated levels of hydrazine and ammonium hydroxide to scavenge oxygen and control pH. Ethanolamine may also rarely be used as a pH additive. The steam generators are continuously recirculated to mix the treatment chemicals.

Additionally, steam generators may be filled with clean water for cooling and subsequently drained.

The steam generators are drained with the steam generator drain pump periodically from a wet lay up condition for maintenance (discussed under DSN 001C-1) or for chemistry control. During power operations, impurities "hideout" in crevices within the steam generators.

As temperature is reduced, these impurities return and must be removed. This return period may last several weeks, so the steam generators may be drained and refilled many times to control the concentration of these impurities.

Alternate Flowpaths for this Discharge:

DSN 001C-6 (TKIO and 11)

Description:==

Unit No. 3 Radiation Waste Test Tank Discharme.

Waste test tanks (A and B) and boron test tanks (A and B) including waste water from areas within the reactor building and other radiological controlled areas (RCAs) and various sumps located within the Unit 3 turbine building during plant start up shut down operation, incidental system leakage and maintenance. Discharges from DSN 001C-1, OOIC-l(a), 001C-3, 001C-9 and the Unit 3 turbine building sump may be directed to this discharge as an alternate pathway.

The radioactive waste system at Unit 3 consists of high level waste (more'radioactively contaminated) and low level waste (DSN 001C-3). The high level waste system receives waste water from areas within the RCA with the exception of the turbine building sump. These waste waters originate mainly due to plant leakage, sampling and system drainage. Many systems are contained in the RCA, so potentially, any waste water from these systems may flow to the high or low level waste system. The high level waste drain tanks A & B receive waste water from several sumps. These sumps receive waste mainly from floor and equipment drains.

The high level waste drain tanks collect water from the high level waste system and the boron recovery system. Normally, the high level waste drain tank is transferred via a filter and demineralizer to the waste test tanks. The waste test tanks are recirculated and sampled prior to discharge. The waste test tanks may be discharged directly, recirculated through a filter and demineralizer or transferred back to the high level waste drain tank for further processing. It is also possible to transfer water between the high level waste drain tank and the low level waste tank for processing.

7) : Discharge Inforination Response to Part A, Question 7 - Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. 5 DSN 001 C UNIT 3 RADIOACTIVE WASTE TEST TANK DISCHARGE (continued).

The boron recovery system receives waste water from the reactor coolant system. This water is processed by evaporation to remove boric acid. The resulting distillate flows to the boron test tanks (BT1') where it is recirculated and sampled prior to discharge. The BTTs may also be further processed by demineralization and

  • filtration.

Alternate Paths:

Boron recovery tanks discharge to the high level waste drain tanks High level waste drain tank to low level waste drain tank (DSN OOIC-3)

BTT discharge to the primary grade storage tank or are directed back to the high level waste drain tanks for additional processing.

Also, some inputs may be redirected to the Unit I Evaporator System storage tank that can be an input to DSN 001A-1 orOOlA-2.

Additional Information Due to biological activity in the waste sumps within the high and low level waste system, filters within the system routinely become clogged prematurely.

Biocides, BULAB 8007 and BULAB 6013 (Buckman Laboratories) in combination with hydrogen peroxide have been proposed for use at Unit 3. This will reduce the frequency with which these filters are replaced thus reducing the volume of radioactive waste generated and improving system performance.

Description:==

Unit 3 service water from auxiliary heat exchangers during start up, shut down, operation, incidental system leakage and maintenance, continuous discharge of non-contact cooling water containing residual chlorine, including pump lubrication water, pump seal water, hydrolazing waste water, incidental leakage from heat exchanger tube leaks and cooling water supplied from the Unit 3 circulating water system during service water pump maintenance.

The Unit 3 service water system provides cooling water to various heat exchangers throughout the plant..The system is divided (procedurally) into two sections (trains). Each train is supplied by two service water pumps at a maximum flow rate of 15,000 gallons per minute for each pump. The service water pumps (four total) are wet pit pumps located in the bays of the intake structure. Sodium hypochlorite solution from the sodium hypochlorite system is injected downstream of the service water strainers.

During certain emergency situations such as equipment failure, sodium hypochlorite may be added into the suction of the running service water pumps. The free available chlorine concentration of the service water system is measured at the discharge of the reactor plant closed cooling water system (RPCCW). Two of the 3 RPCCW heat exchangers are normally in operation. Operating heat exchanger discharges (two normally) are sampled and the results are averaged.

Periodically, the hypochlorite injection system is flushed with domestic water to remove crystallized sodium hypochlorite.

As shown on Figure 4C, the discharge of each service water pump is equipped with a strainer to prevent small debris not removed in the traveling screens from entering the service water system. Periodically, the strainers must be backwashed due to clogging. They may also be backwashed at a set (timed) frequency.

The discharge of the strainer backwash is via two 3" pipes from the intake structure to Niantic Bay. Each service water train is equipped with a backwash discharge. The discharges are-located on the north and south faces of the intake structure (DSNs 004a and 004b).

Discharge Information Response to Part A, Question 7 - Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. 5 DSN 001C UNIT 3 SERVICE WATER. AUXILIARY HEAT EXCHANGER (Continued).

The service water system is a safety related system, so at least one service water train must be in operation at all times. During certain maintenance activities, the service water system may be supplied by a circulating water pump. Portions of the system may be taken out of service periodically and drained for maintenance.

Additionally, the heat exchangers cooled by the service water system must be periodically cleaned (hydrolazed) to remove biogrowth and debris. The source of water used for hydrolazing may be domestic water or demineralized water.

Small amounts of closed cooling water may be discharged via DSN 00IC-5 for short periods as a result of heat exchanger tube leaks.

Description:==

Unit 3 condensate polishing facility discharge: Unit 3 condensate polishing facility operation including system area floor drains, vents, incidental leakage, maintenance activity wastewater, resin regeneration and drain wastewater, condensate polisher system wastewater, fire water, waste evaporator feed tank water, service water (seawater), steam generator wet lay up drainage (DSN OOIC-1(a) alternate path), ABD TK-1 or ABD TK-2 discharge during maintenance activities (DSN 001C-6(b) alternate path), hot water heating system drainage, service water system leakage, secondary system drainage and air conditioner and air compressor condensate drains during plant start up, plant operation, shut down, incidental system leakage and maintenance. Unit 2 CPF wastewaters (including auxiliary boiler blowdown) normally directed to DSN 001B-6 may be directed to this discharge as an alternate pathway. This discharge is essentially a batch discharge; however, some of the minor inputs are continuous. Continuous inputs include domestic water inputs from pump and fan seal water and sample sink drains. These inputs constitute minimum flow (less than 1% per N

hour of tank volume, i.e., less than 250 gallons).

l z : Discharge Information Response to Part A, Question 7 - Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. 5 DSN 001C UNIT 3 CONDENSATE POLISHER REGENERATION WASTEWATER NEUTRALIZATION TANK DISCHARGE (continued).

During normal at-power operations, the entire condensate flow is directed to the condensate polishing facility (CPF). The CPF removes impurities from the condenser tube leakage, primary to secondary leakage, and the corrosion of system piping and components. The CPF consists of eight demineralization beds. During plant operations seven of the beds are in service while the eighth bed is being rinsed and regenerated. Each bed consists of 200 cubic feet of resin.

The influent water contains ethanolamine, ammonia, hydrazine and corrosion products. The beds are operated until the resin effluent shows an increase in specific conductivity.

The exhausted resin is then transferred to the regeneration room where it is rinsed and regenerated, using sulfuric acid (cation) and sodium hydroxide (anion).

Regeneration waste waters (including transfer, cleaning, regeneration, rinse and soak) are neutralized in TKI0 and TK1I sumps with sulfuric acid and/or caustic prior to discharge. Unit 3 received authorization from CTDEP in late 2000 to provide treatment for hydrazine reduction similar to that treatment provided in Unit 2 for DSN 001B-6. In order to provide for operational flexibility, transfer, backwash and rinse water would normally be transferred to TK-10 while regeneration waste waters would be transferred to TK-11 prior to discharge.

Alternate Discharge Paths:

Description:==

Intermittent discharge of the Unit 3 auxiliary boiler blowdown including continuous discharge of auxiliary boiler components during auxiliary boiler operation, hot water heating system drainage, intermittent discharge of the auxiliary boiler enclosure oil and water separator and drainage of secondary system wastewater during plant start up, shutdown, plant operation, incidental system leakage and maintenance.

During normal plant operations, auxiliary steam is supplied to various plant loads (i.e. hot water heating system) by the main steam system. When Unit 3 is shut down, these loads are supplied by the auxiliary boilers. Hydrazine is added using a continuous injection system to the auxiliary boilers to scavenge oxygen and control pH. As boiler chemistry dictates, the auxiliary boilers may be placed in blowdown to remove impurities.

There is also a continuous in-line hydrazine analyzer.

Analyzer flows are directed to this discharge.

The auxiliary boiler blowdown' sump (TK-2) receives wastewater from the auxiliary boiler blowdown tank (ABD TK-I). The auxiliary boiler blowdown tank receives flow from the auxiliary boiler blowdown, auxiliary boiler system components, auxiliary steam condensate, and the auxiliary boiler enclosure oil and water separator. The flow of waste water to TK-2 is continuous during plant operation. Unit 3 is proposing that TK-1 and/or TK-2 be lined up to drain to the CPF sump (TK-10, DSN 001C-6) when necessary for system maintenance.

This Discharge Includes:

Feedwater heater lay-up drains performed during maintenance Condensate and feedwater system leakage and drainage.

Extraction steam High temperature feedwater heater shell drainage.

==

Description:==

Unit 3 wastewater discharged directly from the condensate pump discharge including secondary system wastewater drainage for maintenance, secondary system drainage to control secondary plant water inventory (condensate surge tank level) and steam generator blowdown tank when on open cycle blowdown (normally directed to DSN OOIC-1) during plant start up and shut down, secondary system wet lay up wastewater and hotwell wet lay up drainage during start up, shut down, operation, incidental system leakage and maintenance (normally directed to OO1C-1(a)).

During Unit 3 outages, the condenser hotwells (3) are full of water immediately following plant shutdown. As maintenance activities require, the hotwells are sampled and discharged from a wet lay up condition.

Additionally, many secondary systems are drained back to the hotwells (by normal plant lineup) to allow for maintenance on these systems.

The condenser hotwells may be discharged via DSN OO1C-8. The discharge side of the condensate pump is the normal sample location. An alternate sample location is the secondary sample sink where this discharge can be directed from a pump in the hotwell. A point is reached when the condenser pump loses suction (cavitates). At this point, a skid-mounted pump located on the west side of the hotwell takes a suction off the hotwell and the remainder of the hotwell is discharged via DSN OOIC-9.

In the event of an automatic plant shutdown, a plant startup, or an emergency situation, the hotwell may be discharged on a continuous basis versus a batch. This discharge is used to control secondary system inventory (condensate surge tank level) only during these plant operations.

Alternate Discharge Paths:

Hotwell discharge via DSN OOIC-9.

Description:==

Unit No. 3 Screen Washwater Discharges, including the debris conveyor and backside refuse trough located on the southeast corner side of the unit intake structure, and the Unit 3 fish return trough on the northwest corner of the Unit 3 intake structure, domestic water from washdowns and hydrolazing activities, service water pump strainer backwashes, incidental system leakage, and fire suppression system discharges. Strainer screens are located on the intake and the backwash of these strainers is directed to this discharge.

The inlet of the Unit 3 intake structure is equipped with traveling screens to prevent debris from being drawn into the service and circulating water systems. Wash water, which is supplied by one of two screenwash pumps, is directed through a strainer and then sprayed through nozzles onto the screens to remove debris including fish, crustaceans and algae. The screens and spray are designed in such a way that the debris and fish are separated. The debris is discharged into a trough on the southeast side of the intake structure. The fish are discharged through a trough on the northwest side of the intake structure. The screenwash strainer(s) blowdown is directed back to its respective source bay.

As shown on Figure 4C, the discharge of each service water pump is equipped with a strainer to prevent small debris not removed in the traveling screens from entering the service water system. Periodically, the strainers must be backwashed due to clogging. They may also be backwashed at a set (timed) frequency. The discharge of the strainer backwash is via two 3" pipes from the intake structure to Niantic Bay. Each service water train is equipped with a backwash discharge. The discharges are located on the northwest and southeast faces of the intake structure.

Discharge Information Response to Part A, Question 7 - Description of specific process or activity generating discharge Millstone Power Station Application Addendum No. 5 DSN 004 - UNIT NO. 3 SCREEN WASHWATER DISCHARGE (continued)

During normal maintenance of the intake, washdown and power washing activities occur in the area adjacent to the intake structure. This wash water drains through DSN 004. In addition, the intake bays are occasionally desilted. The debris which collects in the intake bay (mussels, dirt, etc.) is pumped out to a strainer basket in an above ground container located next to the intake structure. The water which passes through the strainer basket is discharged through DSN 004. The material collected in the basket is taken off-site.

There are five (5) pathways for this discharge including:

  • 004a (east side of intake structure)
  • 004b (west side of intake structure)

Naturally filtered seawater is normally drawn from the seawater well except during times when freshwater intrusion from rain events occurs. During these times, seawater that is withdrawn from the two 3-inch lines, is mixed with the well seawater or used exclusively. The seawater that is withdrawn is circulated through the various tanks containing aquatic organisms in the lab and used in the laboratory's bioassay program. No chemicals are added to the water in the lab. The drains from all of the laboratory seawater holding tanks are connected to a single return line that discharges back to the seawater well. The well seawater, which is located in the beach, is naturally filtered through the sand. The dock intake, which has two 3-inch lines is equipped with an engineered filtration system with a fiberglass/polyester vessel filled with a quartz multi-mixture media that filters the seawater down to 2 microns. This filtration system is designed to automatically backwash every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. These backwashes, containing seaweed and particles from the dock intake system, are discharged into the quarry via one of two existing 2-inch discharge lines. Periodically, the backwash is chlorinated to combat biofouling of the filter media. Excess seawater that is withdrawn from the two 3-inch lines and not used in the lab tanks passes through the laboratory and discharges into the quarry via the same 2-inch discharge lines.
