RE: Pilgrim question... Dredging
- Briana, This morning my boss, Jay Scheffer, told me he had a phone discussion with Mark Murray-Brown (Julie Crocker's boss) yesterday afternoon and answered these 2 questions. For your intbrmation, Pilgrim has no plans at this time to perform dredging of the intake canal as the possible need for it is dependent on the rate of sedimentation and is influenced by several variables (including weather/storms).
Mr. Scheffer and Mr. Murray-Brown are expecting to remain in regular contact.

RE: Pilgrim clarification question...
- Bdana, We completed dredging the intake canal (a.k.a. channel, embayment) at the end of last year (2011).
Let me check and get back to you regarding any future dredging plans we might have.

FW: PIlgdm clarification question...
- Joe, I got (yet another!) question from Julie Crocker at NMFS. The first part of her question is easy-the NRC does not require dredging in the Pilgrim operating license. For the second part, the NRC's SEIS states that Entergy 1b
has no plans to dredge the intake canal (Section 4.8., page 4-75, paragraph 2), but I wanted to check with you to make sure that this is still an accurate statement before sending Julie a response.
Thanks!

Pilgrim clarification question...
Hi Briana -
I am working on addressing edits to our consultation letter -- the issue of dredging has come up. Could you please clarify whether maintenance dredging of the intake canal or any other location is required as part of the license and whether NRC considers dredging as part of the action under consideration?
