Lake Anna Cooling Lagoon concerns with the North Anna ESP
Dear Ms. Irons (VDEQ) and Mr. Cushing (NRC),
Attached please find three documents (1) Lake Anna Cooling Lagoon concerns with the North Anna ESP (Msword), (2) The North Anna Power Station proposed (Adobe), and (3) A Lake Anna Map w-cooling lagoon streams (Adobe). that we are submitting to identify our initial concerns and supporting documentation with the North Anna Early Site Permit (ESP) (Revision 6). We will forward additional concerns with the ESP after we have had sufficient time to review the material.
Please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions.
Sincerely, Harry Ruth for the Friends of Lake Anna C/O 230 Heather Drive, Bumpass, Va. 23024 Phone 540-872-3632 CC:

The Station The North Anna Power Station now under construction by Vir-ginia Electric and Power Com-pany in Louisa County will sit at the edge of a reservoir which will extend into Spotsylvania and Orange Counties.
Work is now in progress on two nuclear units scheduled for completion in 1974 and 1975.
Plans hove also been announced for the construction of two addi-tional units, for service in 1977 and 1978.
The cooling lagoons and res-ervoir will be able to accommo-date up to four million kilowatts of generating capability. The net capability of the four units is 3,744,000 kilowatts. Total cost of the power station and reservoir is projected in excess of one bil-lion dollars.
The initial loading of nuclear fuel for the first two units is ex-pected to cost $49 million.
A peak construction force on the project will be more than 2,000 with a present payroll of
$400 thousand a week. It will take 75 to 100 employees to operate the station, with a pay-roll projected at about $750,000 annually.
The reactors for the first two units are being supplied by West-inghouse Electric Corporation. The third and fourth reactors will be supplied by Babcock and Wil-cox. Stone and Webster Engineer-ing Corporation is the architect-engineer-constructor for the first two units.
The Lake Early in 1972, construction crews will put the finishing touches on a dam across the North Anna River in Louisa Coun-ty. Slowly, over a period of many months, the water level will be-gin to rise higher and higher until a
13,000 acre lake is formed.
The new, man-made lake is being created primarily to pro-vide cooling water for the four-unit nuclear power station now under construction there. But the lake holds great potential for far more than just that.
When Vepco's 17-mile long lake with more than 200 miles of shoreline is complete, experts believe the lake can be de-veloped into a major recreational attraction.
The Virginia Division of Parks is considering plans for the de-velopment of a 2,000-plus-acre state park on the north shore of the lake in about 1976. Current plans call for both day-use and overnight facilities, including a beach for swimming, a
boat launching area and a marina.
Vepco is cooperating with the Virginia Commission on Outdoor Recreation in the preparation of a detailed development plan for recreational use of the lake, Theodore J. Wirth and Associates, a nationally recognized recrea-tional consultant, has been re-tained to study the region and recommend a plan for develop-ment.
A preliminary report by the firm indicates the potential use of the lake could be in excess of two million visitors annually by the year 2000. The area, accord-ing to Wirth, is capable of sup-porting not only a state park but two regional parks and a half-dozen public access areas. More than 1,500 boats could be ac-commodated on the main body of the lake, the firm said.
Some of the boats could be handled by the recommended public boat ramps on the lake, according to the report, and the remainder by private develop-ment of the lakeshore property.
The Fishing The reservoir at North Anna has the potential to be one of the finest fishing spots on the East Coast.
A number of species are ex-pected to carry-over from the existing river and stream system into the lake, including pumpkin-seed sunfish, spotted bass, giz-zard shad and several types of catfish.
In addition the lake can be stocked with popular gamefish:
Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Crappie, Bream, Brown Trout, White Bass, Coontail Perch, Coho Salmon and Striped Bass.
Sportsmen can anticipate rea-sonable catches within two years after the reservoir has filled. As the fish become established, and effective stocking-management programs are worked out, the fishing should become excellent.
Building Today For Tomorrow's Generation Vepco Beaches capable of accommo-dating 4,000 swimmers are sug-gested, along with picknicking facilities for more than 5,000 and about 2,500 campsites.
