.E N E R C O N Collector Well Groundwater Withdrawals, REV. 0 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit I PAGE NO. 6 of 25 1.0 PURPOSE The Plant Service Water system (PSW) for Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS) is supplied by radial (Ranney) collector wells installed along the bank of the Mississippi River. There are four (4) existing radial wells -PSW-1, PSW-3, PSW-4, and PSW-5.These radial wells are located in the floodplain that parallels the Mississippi River and are designed to derive water from the Mississippi River via induced infiltration.

The wells withdraw groundwater from Mississippi River alluvial deposits east of the river.Additional cooling tower make-up water is anticipated to be needed (-3,200 gpm) due to the increase in heat load generated as a result of Extended Power Uprate (EPU), along with the associated increase in water loss through evaporation, blowdown and drift. A new radial well is being installed to ensure that plant service water availability is maintained during EPU conditions since GGNS' existing radial wells degrade over time and thus cannot perform at their design capacity.

Radial well PSW-6 is scheduled to be installed north of the barge slip and operational in March 2012. Figure 1 shows the approximate locations of the existing radial wells and PSW-6.The purpose of the following analysis was to provide an evaluation of the radius of influence effects on the Mississippi River Alluvial Aquifer due to pumping from all five radial wells -PSW-1, PSW-3, PSW-4 and PSW-5, including anticipated pumping from PSW-6, scheduled for installation in 2012. This includes the following: " Determination of the aquifer drawdown effects due to pumping of the five (5)radial wells at rates sufficient to supply PSW needs at EPU conditions; assuming all five (5) radial wells are pumping at maximum Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) permitted capacity.* Water withdrawal impacts related to operation of the PSW system on potential offsite groundwater users.This calculation is based on historic information and site conditions related to aquifer characteristics developed for GGNS by other vendors. For example, aquifer geology data mentioned in this calculation is based on data supplied by studies completed during the licensing of GGNS Unit 1, and supplemented by recent site characterization studies developed for the Combined Operating License (COL) Application developed for Unit 3.This data is accepted without additional verification.

Aquifer characteristics parameters such as hydraulic conductivity (K), Transmissivity (T), aquifer thickness (m), line recharge, and other are taken from previous GGNS calculations which were completed by other vendors. The aquifer parameter values are representative of tests performed at specific point locations representative of conditions at the time of the tests. These values are accepted without additional verification.

The verification of these parameters is limited to confirmation that the values used are accurately drawn from the referenced documents.

Utilization of these aquifer characteristics in this calculation is based on best professional judgment as being appropriate for the current calculation.

Assumptions cited in Section 4.0 and reflected as input values in the calculations in Section 6.0 contain no open assumptions that require future confirmation.

SUMMARY

OF RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Drawdown at any specific point of a well field will be the cumulative drawdown at that location from each well pumping within the area. The individual drawdowns from each PSW well at the five (5) property line observation points (P1 and P3 through P6) are summarized and totaled in Table 3 (nominal pumping rate Qave) and Table 4 (maximum pumping rate Qmax) to give an estimated cumulative drawdown amount at the specified observation point: Table I Groundwater Drawdown at the Property Line Observation Points (ft.)at Nominal Pumping Rates Qave PSW Well P1 P3 P4 P5 P6 PSW-1 3.75 2.52 1.68 0.11 0.09 PSW-3 0.74 0.81 0.78 0.17 0.13 PSW-4 0.40 0.44 0.45 0.31 0.25 PSW-5 0.26 0.28 0.29 0.39 0.32 PSW-6 0.17 0.18 0.19 0.74 0.90 Total 5.32 4.23 3.39 :1.72: 1.69 Table 2 Groundwater Drawdown at the Property Line Observation Points (ft.)at Maximum Pumping Rates Qmax = 10,000 gpm PSW Well P1 P3 P4 P5 P6 PSW-1 8.71 5.85 3.92 0.26 0.22 PSW-3 1.80 1.97 1.91 0.40 0.32 PSW-4 0.76 0.82 0.86 0.58 0.48 PSW-5 0.50 0.53 0.55 0.75 0.62 PSW-6 0.32 0.34 0.36 1.40 1.69 Total 12.09: 9.51 7.60 3.39 3.33 The greatest groundwater drawdown is estimated to be at the southern property boundary, approximately 12.09 feet with all five (5) wells pumping at the 10,000 gpm, in the vicinity of observation point P1. Assuming an average aquifer thickness of 81.20 feet (Table 2, PSW-1), this results in a net reduction of the available aquifer thickness on the southern property line at P1 of 14.89% [(12.09 ft./81.20 ft.)

  • 100=14.89%].

If an assumed aquifer thickness of 81.26 ft. exists similar to PSW-5 at Observation Point P5 (See Figure 3) on the GGNS northern property boundary, the reduction of available capacity is 3.39 feet, or 4% [(3.39 ft./81.26 ft.)

  • 100 = 4.17%)].Due to the recharge provided by the Mississippi River, groundwater withdrawals from the GGNS PSW well field would not be expected to have an impact on offsite groundwater.users west of the river.

The use of the maximum permitted flow rates is not intended to indicate that actual well yields of 10,000 gpm could be sustained.

The use of Qmax = 10,000 gpm is considered to provide additional conservatism in the estimate of drawdown effects at the GGNS property boundaries.

Therefore, 10,000 gpm is established as the assumed maximum flow rate from each radial well for this calculation.

This historic pump test data was used to estimate relevant aquifer properties

[Ranney 1975, Ranney 1983].Aquifer properties (transmissivity, hydraulic conductivity, line recharge, thickness) and observed drawdowns during pump tests are used below as input for the determination of groundwater drawdown at the closest property boundary.

Based on information from Entergy, there have been no new pump tests performed in the area radial wells of the GGNS site since 1983. However, the aquifer properties reported from those pump tests remain valid estimates of aquifer conditions since the subsurface geology has not changed since that time, and hydraulic conditions of the site have not been altered. That is, the hydraulic settings (river location, river flows, and areas of recharge) have not changed.Groundwater drawdown due to pumping in the unconfined Mississippi River Alluvial Aquifer at the location of the PSW radial wells (PSW-1, PSW-3, PSW-4, PSW-5, and the proposed PSW-6) adjacent to the Mississippi River is dependent on two hydrologic regimes within the aquifer surrounding the PSW wells. The groundwater aquifer on the western side of the well field is dominated by recharge from the Mississippi River.Although heavily influenced by the Mississippi River, the aquifer on the eastern side of the river also receives recharge from local precipitation, local flooding events, and discharge at the bluffs/floodplain interface from the Pleistocene age undifferentiated terrace deposits (locally identified as the Upland Complex) (Figure 2). These are described in the original Unit 1 licensing documents, as well as more recent evaluations

[Ranney 1975, Ranney 1983, GGNS 2008, GGNS 2009].The calculations below use radial well information developed from collector wells PSW-1, PSW-3, and PSW-5 pumping tests at conditions observed on October 9, 1983 at 12:30 hours [Bechtel 1986]. Mississippi River level was reported at 41.52 ft. msl and is assumed to be consistent throughout the duration of the pumping test for all three wells[Bechtel 1986].Table 3 provides inputs for the calculations below based on the reference cited: Table 3 Aquifer and PSW Well Parameters (Bechtel 1986]Parameter PSW-1 PSW-3 PSW-5 Q Total Flow rate (gpm) 4300 4100 5200 Hydraulic Conductivity K (gpd/ft.2) 2085 2350 2500 m Average Aquifer 81.20 75.41 81.26 Thickness (ft.)T Transmissivity (gpd/ft.)

Evaluation of Potential Impacts of CALC. NO. ENTGGG071-CALC-001 E E N E R C O N Collector Well Groundwater Withdrawals, REV. 0 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit I PAGE NO. 10 of 25 The flow rates from PSW-1, PSW-3, and PSW-5 are used in the calculations to reflect flow rates for comparison against the maximum assumed flow rates of 10,000 gpm per well.Hydraulic conductivity (K) for PSW-4 is listed as 1850 gpd/ft.2 with a nominal pumping rate of 5300 gpm, based on operations in 1988 [Hydro 1989]. As PSW-4 lies approximately midway between PSW-3 and PSW-5, Transmissivity (T) used for drawdown calculation is the average of the PSW-3 and PSW-5 (See values in Table 3), or (190,182 gpd/ft.).PSW-6 has not yet been installed at GGNS. Hydraulic conductivity (K) for PSW-6 is assumed to be the average of the PSW-1, PSW-3 and PSW-5 values (in Table 2) and calculated as 2312 gpd/ft.2.A nominal pumping rate of 5300 gpm is also assumed to be consistent with the PSW-4 estimation.

Transmissivity (T) used for drawdown calculation is the average of the PSW-1, PSW-3 and PSW-5 values in Table 3 (183,222 gpd/ft.).4.3 MISSISSIPPI RIVER RECHARGE EFFECTS Plant service water is supplied from radial collector wells located in the floodplain that parallels the Mississippi River (Figure 4). The collector wells are designed to derive water from the Mississippi River via induced infiltration.

Multiple assessments and yield calculations have been performed for radial wells installed at GGNS. The distance to the "line source of recharge" has been assumed to be approximately 850 ft. to the west of the wells [Bechtel 1986]. The "line source of recharge" is a theoretical line where the infiltration rate from the recharge source (Mississippi River) is balanced with the groundwater withdrawal rate; therefore producing a line of zero drawdown in the underlying aquifer. The line recharge distance is measured from the pumping well. The Bechtel 1986 calculations derive line recharge distances specific to PSW-1, PSW-3, and PSW-5 at the cited flows (Q) and river stage.Bechtel did not calculate a line recharge distance for PSW-4 or PSW-6. ENERCON uses an assumed line recharge distance of 850 feet in this current calculation package, as a reasonable distance.

Use of this line recharge distance is consistent with other calculations performed by Bechtel [Bechtel 1986]. The Mississippi River is approximately 3300 feet wide at the location of GGNS. Pumping from the GGNS PSW wells on the eastern side of the Mississippi will not affect groundwater users on the western side of the Mississippi River.Previous aquifer testing at the locations of PSW-1, PSW-3, and PSW-5 (Figure 5)showed a sharp groundwater gradient from the Mississippi River bank to the pumping well, and a more gradual, but limited, cone of depression on the landward side of the well [Ranney 1983].

Evaluation of Potential Impacts of CALC. NO. ENTGGG071-CALC-001 AE N E R CO N Collector Well Groundwater Withdrawals, REV. 0 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit I PAGE NO. 11 of 25 4.4 MISSISSIPPI RIVER ALLUVIAL AQUIFER EFFECTS East of the Mississippi River, the radial wells will draw groundwater not only from induced infiltration from the Mississippi River, but also from the alluvial aquifer itself.Groundwater pumping tests were conducted between 1975 and 1983 for aquifer parameter and yield determinations; however, none of the tests were conducted at pumping rates of 10,000 gpm [Bechtel 1986].4.5 DRAWDOWN OBSERVATION POINT DISTANCES Distances from each radial well (PSW-1, PSW-3, PSW-4, PSW-5, and PSW-6) were developed by ENERCON to a point approximately corresponding to the nearest property boundary.

These distances were developed approximations using measurement capabilities of publically available aerial photography software (Google Earth). These distances are not surveyed distances, and therefore any drawdowns derived from the calculations below are representative of the estimated effects at the specified distance from the cited well. Figure 3 provides locations of observation points on the GGNS property boundary and well locations.

Using Equation 2, the distances in Table 4 were used to calculate the drawdown at the GGNS property boundary for a location nearest to each of the collector wells. Observation points P1, P3, and P4 are located on the southern property boundary.

Observation points P5 and P6 are located on the northern property boundary (Figure 3).Table 4 Distance (r) between PSW Wells and Nearest Property Boundaries (ft.)I IObservation Point PSW Well P1 P3 P4 P5 P6 PSW-1 1050 1450 1920 8650 9450 PSW-3 3000 2850 2900 6700 7550 PSW-4 4650 4450 4350 5350 5900 PSW-5 5600 5400 5300 4500 5000 PSW-6 7400 7150 7000 3400 3050 4.6 RIVER STAGE The calculations below use radial well information developed from collector wells PSW-1, PSW-3, and PSW-5 pumping tests at conditions observed on October 9, 1983 at 12:30 hours [Bechtel 1986]. Mississippi River level was reported at 41.52 ft. msl and is assumed to be constant.

Actually, the river level at 41.52 ft. msl is a relatively low stage of the river, and adds additional conservatism to the consideration groundwater drawdown.

Maximum well drawdown in each PSW is fixed, based on the established pump intake elevation.

The GGNS minimum water levels for each well are established above the actual pump intake. The river level affects the available saturated thickness of the aquifer, and in effect the available well yield is reduced when the river level Evaluation of Potential Impacts of CALC. NO. ENTGGG071-CALC-001 E N E R C O N Collector Well Groundwater Withdrawals, REV. 0 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit 1 PAGE NO. 12 of 25 declines because of a corresponding reduction of the aquifer saturated thickness.

The relationship between aquifer thickness and available yield is illustrated by Darcy's equilibrium well equation: Q = (K(H 2-h 2))/(1055 log R/r) (Driscoll 1986, pg. 213)Where: Q = well yield or pumping rate (gpm)K = Hydraulic conductivity of the formation (gpd/ft.2)H = static head measured from the bottom of the aquifer (ft.)h = depth of water in the well while pumping (ft.)R = radius of the cone of depression (ft.)r = radius of the well (ft.)As shown in Darcy's equation, if the radius (R) of the cone of depression is assumed to remain constant, the flow (Q) is reduced as the static head (H) decreases.

If the flow is held constant, the radius of the cone of depression is decreased, if the static head decreases.

The aquifer parameters (transmissivity, hydraulic conductivity) cited in Table 3 are based on the point in time where the river level was 41.52 ft. above mean sea level. All calculations below are based on assumption of a constant river stage and aquifer potentiometric surface elevation of 41.52 ft. above mean sea level.5.0 METHODOLOGY ENERCON reviewed readily available hydrogeological reference literature for methodologies to best estimate drawdown effects that would include the maximum number of site conditions, such as recharge from the Mississippi River, other local recharges, horizontal collector well design and operating conditions, and multiple well interferences.

Most hydrogeologic references discuss recharge conditions such as rivers, lakes, and local precipitation, but cite the need to use pump test data to predict drawdown at distance.

This is because site specific aquifer properties control observable drawdown.

Ultimately, ENERCON chose to use the equations previously used for estimating radial well yield as most applicable, because the equations consider the recharge from the river. Use of the same equations also provides for consistency of evaluation methodologies.

Equation 1 (Section 5.1) includes recharge from the river, as a line recharge boundary, although it does not include other recharge sources (e.g.,ýprecipitation events). Therefore, it must be noted that the calculations performed below are conservative, and will overestimate the probable drawdown.

ENTGGG071-CALC-001 FJ E N E R C O N Collector Well Groundwater Withdrawals, REV. 0 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit I PAGE NO. 13 of 25 5.1 EQUATIONS AND INPUT PARAMETERS The method used for this calculation is based on the equations utilized by Bechtel in 1983 to determine drawdown interference effects between adjacent PSW well pumping[Bechtel 1986]. Use of these equations is consistent with previous evaluations at the site; and the equations take the recharge of the Mississippi River into account in the evaluation.

The equation for drawdown is derived from the following equation (Equation 1) for calculation of aquifer transmissivity:

527.7Q log(' ?a2 +r2.T = r (Equation

1) [Bechtel 1986, sheet 2 of 35, Attachment 2]s Where: T = Transmissivity (gpd/ft.)Q = Pumping rate, gpm a = Distance from pumping well to the line source of recharge* (ft.)r = Distance from pumping well to a selected observation point (ft.)s = Groundwater drawdown at the selected observation point r (ft.)* The "line source of recharge" is a theoretical line where the infiltration rate from the recharge source (Mississippi River) is balanced with the groundwater withdrawal rate; therefore producing a line of zero drawdown in the underlying aquifer.Rearranging Equation 1 to solve for the groundwater drawdown (s) at an observation point (r) yields the following:

5 2 7.7 QIog(-4 a2+r)S =T r (Equation 2)6.0 CALCULATIONS The following is an assessment of the drawdown, both individually and cumulatively, at each of the five observation points specified in Table 1. The assessment will evaluate the observation point drawdown for a nominal flow rate (Qave), used in the Bechtel assessment

[Bechtel 1986]. A maximum flow rate of 10,000 gpm was established from the MDEQ permitted well capacities for all five (5) radial wells, as requested by Entergy.The use of the maximum permitted flow rates is not intended to indicate that actual well yields of 10,000 gpm could be sustained.

The use of Qmax = 10,000 gpm is considered to provide additional conservatism in the estimate of drawdown effects at the GGNS property boundaries.

S

..... .. .. .... ............

....Due to the recharge provided by the Mississippi River, groundwater withdrawals from the GGNS PSW well field would not be expected to have an impact on offsite groundwater.users west of the river..Calculation of the groundwater drawdown effects at the GGNS property boundaries, due...to pumping all five PSW wells at an assumed maximum. flow rate of 10,000 gpm each,.resulted in a calculated cumulative drawdown at the closest point on the southern: property boundary (observation point P1, Figure 1) of approximately

'12.09 feet, or.'14.89% of the available aquifer thickness, and 3.39 feet or 4%: of. available, aquifer', thickness at northern property boundary..;
