RE: EPA Review and Comments on Final Generic Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (FGSEIS)
License Renewal of Nuclear Power Plants Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1 Plant-specific supplement 33 to NUREG-1437 CEQ No. 20080325
Dear Sir:
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 4, reviewed the Final Generic Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (FGSEIS), pursuant to Section 309 of the Clean Air Act and Section 102 (2)(C) of the National EnvironmeftaiPolicy Act (NEPA).
The purpbse of this letter'is' to providethe NUiclear Regulatory Com-mission (NRC) with EPA's comments regarding potential impacts of the renewal of the operating license (OL) for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1.
The proposed action of renewing the OL for a 20-year period would maximize the use of existing assets. The facility uses two intakes to withdraw water from the Harris Reservoir and the auxiliary reservoir for plant cooling, and discharges wastewater via outfalls to this reservoir and to a sewage treatment plant.
We appreciate your responses to our Draft GSEIS comments in Appendix A of the FGSEIS. Based on the FGSEIS, env.ironmental concerns about the project will need to be addressed as the project proceeds. Specifically, there is a continuing requirement for appropriate storage and ultimate disposition of radioactive wastes generated on-site, as well as continuing measures to limit bioentrainment and other impacts to aquatic species from surface water withdrawals and discharges, and compliance with the NPDES Permit. The NPDES permittee has operated and is currently operating in compliance with the NPDES permit requirements. The FGSEIS acknowledges that continuing radiological monitoring of all plant effluents and appropriate storage of spent fuel assemblies and radioactive wastes on-site are required flr this project, in order to prevent impacts.'
In the Waste Confidence Rule (10 CFR 51.23), the Commissio'ngenerically'determined that the spent fuel generated by any reactor ca.n be"safely stored onsite for-at least 30 years Internet Address (URL)
Recycled/Recyclable
- Printed with Vegetable Oil Based Inks on Recycled Paper (Minimum 30% Postconsumer)
beyond the licensed operating life of the reactor. Ultimately, long-term radioactive waste disposition will require transportation of wastes to a permitted repository site.
In conclusion, the FGSEIS is clearly written and provides useful information for assessment of the proposal to renew the OL for Unit 1. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Please send us a copy of the'Record of Decision for our project files. If we can be of further assistance, please contact Ramona McConney of my staff at (404) 562-9615.
Sincerely, Heinz J. Mueller, Chief NEPA Program Office
