SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW FOR WOLF CREEK GENERATING STATION LICENSE RENEWAL (TAC NO. MD3182)
Dear Mr. Garrett:
On September 27, 2006, Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Company submitted an application for license renewal of the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS), Unit 1. As part of the environmental review for license renewal, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff conducted an environmental site audit at the WCGS during the week of March 16, 2007. In advance of the audit, NRC staff submitted (by letter dated February 21, 2007) a list of information that would facilitate the staffs review during the environmental site audit. We appreciate the efforts of your staff to make the requested information available during the audit.
During the staffs review of the information, and based on discussions with your staff, we have identified areas where additional information is needed to complete our review. Enclosed is a compilation of three lists of documents that are being requested. The first list includes references that are identified in the Environmental Report. The second list (Master List) includes references that provide responses to questions that were asked during the site audit.
The numbering system for Environmental Report references and the Master List were provided by your staff and remain unchanged.
The third list is composed of additional information that was identified during the site audit. The numbering system for this list was created by NRC staff and was discussed with your staff during the audit. Please note that items A1, A2, A3, A4, A8, A9, A10, A11, A12, A13, A14, A15 and A16 from this third list were obtained by NRC staff during the audit, left behind, and may be returned to us separate from the official response to these requests for additional information (RAIs).
T. Garrett We request that you provide your response to these RAIs no later than 30 days after the issuance of this letter in order to support the license renewal environmental review schedule.
If you have any questions, please contact me by telephone at (301) 415-3874 or by e-mail at cjj@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/

USACE, 1/96 - 12/06, Monthly Lake Report, John Redmond Lake, from http://www.swt-wc.usace.army.mil/JOHNcharts.html Clarification of the relationship between the WCNOC contract with the Kansas Water Resources Board, versus the Certificate of Appropriation discussed in ER Section 4.1. It appears that the contract has controls based on 54 available supply within the reservoir, while certificate has controls based on the flow rate in the river. Please verify if this is correct. Also identify if a different agency implements the controls in either case, or if this is a single agency.
Text provided @ site audit. Data source identification required.
Historical information on how the water withdrawal controls have been implemented in the past. If there have never been any incidents where low water levels in the reservoir or low flow in the river have resulted in water withdrawal restrictions, then state this. If there have been incidents where the rights of any user (WCGS or any other user) have 55 been restricted, provide information on the cause of the incident, length of duration, restrictions placed on which users, and any other relevant information.

Reviewers request copies the Environmental Operating Reports for 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, and 2006 (if 2006 is available). Report for 2004 is provided in ER References #62.
Groundwater levels were predicted to rise 45.8 feet within 100 feet of the site 50 years after the filling of Coffey County Lake. The height of the groundwater table was predicted to rise 0.4 feet, 2 miles from the site after the lake 57 was filled. Please provide the elevation of the water table before the lake was filled and the current water table elevation. Data provided in #58 The groundwater flow direction was noted to be generally SW from WCGS to the Neosho River. Are there any localized groundwater flow directions to Wolf Creek (below Coffey County Lake)?

Regarding water use conflicts at Wolf Creek, although the ER Section 4.1 indicates no surface water use conflicts, our Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS) for license renewal says (Section 4.4.2.1, p. 4-52): Two nuclear power plants, the Braidwood Station and Wolf Creek Generating Station, have already experienced water-use conflicts. Furthermore, the GEIS on p. 4-53 (left column, first full para) uses Wolf Creek Generating Station as an example of potential water use conflicts. Water use conflicts at Wolf Creek are also cited in section 4.4.3, p. 4-57, 59 left column. Although there seems to be a discrepancy, perhaps all water use conflicts have been solved. If so, Wolf Creek should provide this information.

Please update the information presented in Section 7.2 of the ER to show both Generating Capacity and Generation by 70 fuel type for the years 2000 through 2006 inclusive. Text provided @ site audit. No reference. Provide source of response.
WCNOC has limited its analysis of coal fired alternatives to pulverized coal systems (ER Section 7.2.1). However, the WCGS operating license does not expire until 2025 which is 18 years off. At this point in time integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) systems are well under development and is likely that these and other advanced coal utilization systems will be operational by the time the WCGS license expires. Please provide updated information including a brief assessment of the state of advanced coal utilization technologies, whether such 70 technologies could be employed at the WCGS site and the potential benefits of the new technologies. In particular, the possible environmental advantages of advanced coal systems should be mentioned including reduced air emission in comparison to pulverized coals burners. The purpose of addressing advanced coal technologies would not be to consider those technologies as formal "alternatives" to license renewal but rather to generally update the information presented in the alternatives analysis. Text provided @ site audit. No reference. Provide source of response.
Most license renewal EISs contain an analysis of a combination of alternatives to replace the output of a generating 70 station should the operating license not be renewed. Please provide an analysis of at least one combination alternative that WCNOC considers feasible. Text provided @ site audit. No reference. Provide source of response.
