DRAFT Requests for Additional Information Prairie Island License Renewal - Ecology

1. Please provide any correspondence with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, or other state or federal agency concerning effects of the 2010 maintenance dredging project in the Mississippi River on mussel species or other state- or federally-protected species.
2. Please provide any biological reports or assessments that were prepared as part of the Work in Public Waters permitting process to determine the effects on the aquatic environment from maintenance dredging since submittal of the Environmental Report.
3. Page 4-14 of the draft SEIS states that a draft of Xcel Energys Avian Protection Plan (APP) for Minnesota was submitted to FWS in late 2008. Please provide an update on the status of this APP. If the APP has been finalized, please provide a copy.
4. In your letter dated January 27, 2010, providing comments on the draft SEIS, Comment 214 states, It is important to note that the accuracy of the 1984 data for impingement of all fish species is in question due to sampling methodology. In a phone conversation on July 21, 2010, NRC staff asked NSPM to identify the nature of the problem with the sampling methodology. NSPM said that the comment was questioning NRCs calculations of the number of impinged fish in the draft SEIS based on the referenced data. Since this explanation differs from the comment submitted in writing, please clarify Comment 214.
