RE: Monticello - Additional RAI question for proposed EPU amendment, environmental issues (TAC MD9990)

Gabe, Ken:

Reference my e-mail dated 12/16/08 (ADAMS Accession No. ML083530302).

In the conference call today, we agreed to delete Question 1 in the referenced e-mail. In addition, the NRC staff verbally conveyed an additional question as follows:

Wright County, MN, where MNGP is located, is a maintenance area for carbon monoxide (CO). The construction activities associated with the EPU project and significant number of additional workers needed to complete the project, might affect the air quality in the Wright County and nearby counties. The assessment of the employees' vehicles exhaust levels needs to be performed, comparing estimated exhaust emission levels with the threshold emission levels for conformity analysis set forth in 40 CFR 51.853(b)(2) and, for regionally significant levels set forth in 40 CFR 51.853(f). Emission factors from the current version of AP-42 should be used.

As agreed in the conference call, please respond to the 2 remaining questions in my 12/16/08 e-mail, and the above question, by 1/31/09. Thank you.
