RAI# AQ-11 Section 2.2.5, Page 2*15 of the Environmental Report (ER) discusses fish kill events in the Braidwood cooling pond.
- a. The ER states that five fish kills occurred between 2001 and 2007. NRC staff is aware of the fish kill events that occurred on July 22, 2001 (ML012390121),
August 27,2001 (ML012680140), and June 28,2005 (ML052160140). Provide the dates of the remaining two events as well as copies of the non-routine event reports associated with each event.

Discussion: The staff clarified that it is seeking information not already in ADAMS. Exelon indicated the question is clear.
RAI#AQ-12 Section 2.2.5, Page 2-16 of the ER states that "HDR [HDR Engineering] assessed water quality and fish populations in the cooling pond in late summer 2009 and 2010 to develop a better understanding of the factors contributing to fish kills and design a water quality or fish monitoring program that could be used to predict (and conceivably mitigate) fish kills in the pond."
- a.
Provide copies of the 2009 and 2010 HDR studies mentioned in the ER.
- b. Has Exelon designed a water quality or fish monitoring program for the cooling pond, as mentioned in the ER? If so, provide a brief description of the program and any associated monitoring reports for available data years.
- c.
Has Exelon implemented any mitigation to reduce the number of fish kills in the cooling pond? If so, describe such mitigation Discussion: Exelon indicated the question is clear.
RAI# AQ-13 Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of the ER discuss the effects resulting from entrainment and impingement of Kankakee River aquatic biota at the makeup water intake or associated river screen house.
In its analysis of entrainment and impingement, the NRC will consider the effects of entrainment and impingement that occurs at both the river screen house and the lake screen house.
ENCLOSURE 2 To support this analysis, please provide any studies that assess entrainment or impingement at the cooling pond's lake screen house.
Discussion: Exelon indicated the question is clear.
RAI#AQ-14 Section 4.4 of the ER considers the effects of heat shock on aquatic biota in the Kankakee River. In its analysis, the NRC will consider the effects of heat shock on aquatic biota in both the Kankakee River and the cooling pond. To support this analysis, please provide any thermal studies that have been conducted on the cooling pond.
Discussion: Exelon indicated the question is clear.
RAI#AQ-15 Submit the following Environmental Report references for docketing:
- a. (Exelon Nuclear 2011 c) Exelon Nuclear. 2011. Braidwood Station-Braidwood Lake Additional Biological Sampling Program, 2010.
