SUBJECT:

NINE MILE POINT UNITS 1 AND 2 LICENSE RENEWAL REVIEW

Dear Ms. Roy:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff is reviewing an application to renew the operating licenses for Nine Mile Point, Units 1 and 2 (NMP), which is located on the southeastern shore of Lake Ontario in the Town of Scriba, Oswego County, New York. NMP is owned by Constellation Energy Group, Inc. (Constellation). The application for renewal was submitted by Constellation on May 27, 2004, pursuant to NRC requirements at Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 54 (10 CFR Part 54). The NRC has established that, as part of the staffs review of any nuclear power plant license renewal action, a site-specific Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) to its Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants (GEIS), NUREG-1437, will be prepared under the provisions of 10 CFR Part 51, the NRC rules that implement the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA).

Oswego County is most impacted by the NMP license renewal because the majority of its employees reside in Oswego County. During the week of September 20, 2004, Mr. Warren Rued, an NRC contractor from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, would like to visit your office and obtain the following information on the public water systems in order to analyze the environmental impacts of license renewal of NMP:

1. The number of public water systems serving Oswego County.
2. The number of residences using private wells.
3. The number of users for each public water system.
4. Design capacity of each public water system (maximum volume which can be used per day).
5. Current usage of each public water system.
6. Breakdown of water systems by type (community systems, private residential systems, and industrial systems, if present).
7. Amount of water purchased or obtained from outside sources (e.g., Onondaga County Water Authority, Metropolitan Water Board).

N. Roy 8. Amount of water available for future growth (qualitative statement indicating whether there are sufficient water reserves to provide water to the anticipated population in the future, and for how many years, using the current growth rates and current projections for Oswego county).

On September 21, 2004, the NRC will conduct two public NEPA scoping meetings at the Town of Scriba Conference Room, 42 Creamery Road, Oswego, New York. You and your staff are invited to attend. The anticipated publication date for the draft SEIS is April 2005. If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Ms. Leslie C. Fields, Environmental Project Manager, at 301-415-1186 or via email at LCF@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
