Vogtle Environmental Site Audit Follow Up CC: bobbie.hurley@earthtech.com; D. Ashley; Louise Lund; Rani Franovich Good morning, Dale and Tom.Per the Site Audit Exit Briefing, please find attached our post-audit information requests (in 3 documents).
As we discussed, I trust about a week's turn-around should be sufficient to gather this information on your end and send it over- but please keep me posted so I can advise NRC staff accordingly.
Should you have any questions regarding the attached requests, please let me know.Regards, JP Leous US NRC 301.415.2864 file://C:\temp\GW}

& Opened HYDROGEOLOGY REVIEW FOR VOGTLE AUDIT 1. The non-radioactive resins and sludge are disposed of offsite in a permitted industrial landfill, with an average volume of __ pounds per year. Mike Odum stated that six roll-off containers are sent for permitted industrial landfill last year. Please provide the estimate pounds of waste from the waste manifest of non-radiological resins and sludge disposal.2. The hazardous waste consists of listed waste streams, and in 2006, comprised a total of __ pounds of hazardous waste. Mike Odum stated in 2006, two 55 gallon drums (300 Ibs) of haz-waste was sent for disposal and in 2007, two 55 gallon drums of haz-waste was sent for disposal.
Please provide a summary of the types of waste and weight in pounds from the waste manifests.
- 3. The VEGP Waste Minimization Plan includes procedures for evaluating and reducing the generation of the following types of wastes. Mike Odum stated during the audit the general waste types include: Oily Rags and Resins; Light Bulbs (universal wastes);Batteries
& Capacitors (universal waste); Asbestos; and Used Oils. Please verify the list and provide a copy of the Waste Minimization Plan.4. Earth Tech currently has the pre-operational estimates of water withdrawal from the Savannah River based on the maximum withdrawal capacity of the pumps in the intake structure (89 cfs, with an average estimated consumptive use of 33.4 cfs per unit, or 66.8 cfs for the entire facility.
Tom Moore stated the monthly withdrawals are located in the information docket and Mike Odum referenced an average withdrawal of 64 mgd from Savannah River intake. He also mentioned that Don Goodwin has the run-time for pumps and submits them in monthly reports to state. Please provide monthly withdrawals for the pumps for the last 5 years.5. Tom Moore was gracious enough to explain the difference between the CWS and NSCW cooling systems numerous times to NRC and Earth Tech. In addition, Figure 3.3 of the Environmental Study, March 1974 presents a diagram. For purposes of clarity please revise the following descriptions:
The Cooling Water System (CWS) which includes the two 500 ft cooling tower receives water from the Savannah River and circulates the water through the turbine plant. Blow down water from the cooling towers is discharged back into the Savannah River. The (NSCW) system is design for Safety Reactor Cooling and as an Ultimate Heat Sink. The NSCW utilizes groundwater from four wells (MV-1 and MV-2 and backup wells TW-1 and TW-2) for operation.
The system has four 80 ft deep cooling sumps with fans that receive the NSCW water and discharge the blow down to the Savannah River.6. Please provide the 2006 VEGP Surface Water Quality Monitoring Program Report.7. Please provide the NPDES Discharge Monitoring Reports for the last 5 years.
- 8. Tom Moore stated that there is no minimum level established to curtail surface water withdrawal from the Savannah River in the case of a drought. Instead, a Drought Plan (which is part of the Surface Water Withdrawal Permit) and Drought Task Force has been established with the US Army Corps of Engineers to address river flow and withdrawals.
There are four Action Levels that are based on the release from Thurmond Dam. At a pool of 312 ft msl in Thurmond Dam, the minimum flow is 3800 cfs. With the current Georgia drought the measuring station in Waynesboro has not dropped below 4000 cfs. Please verify the above summary and add information on the four response levels, especially Level 3 and 4 when the flow is below 3800 cfs.9. Please provide a copy of the Surface Water Withdrawal Permit and the Groundwater Withdrawal Permit.10. Gary Gunter with Tetra Tech stated that information from the UFSAR was used to develop a spreadsheet model for groundwater drawdown for the new reactor licensing.
Both "confined nonleaky aquifer" and "confined leaky aquifer" drawdowns were modeled.Please provide the hydrogeologic data and calculation package on the groundwater that VEGP used in the ER for the Proposed Reactor Units 3 and 4. Earth Tech would like to be able to re-create the model's output.
