SUMMARY
OF RESULTS: The purpose of this calculation is to assess the effect of the combined-effect flood on Deer Creek and Lake Ontario at the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna). This calculation supports the flood hazard re-evaluation of Ginna. Combined effect flooding was evaluated as per guidance in Appendix H of NUREG/CR-7046. Combined effect flooding discussed in this calculation are the result of adding wave runup to the maximum stillwater elevation of the bounding riverine flood and the Probable Maximum Storm Surge on Lake Ontario, as discussed in Appendix H of NUREG/CR-7046. The results of the evaluation of the combined-effect flood at Ginna are as follows:
- 1. The bounding combined-effect flooding mechanism at Ginna is the combination of the PMF on the Deer Creek with the 25-year surge (with wind-wave activity) on Lake Ontario and the maximum controlled water level on the Lake. Under this scenario, waves overtop the stone revetment and discharge canal, increasing the PMF water surface elevations at the northern end of the site by 0.1 ft.
- 2. The Probable Maximum Water Elevation at Ginna including wave effects is calculated to be 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Reactor Containment Building, 272.6 ft, NGVD29 at the Auxiliary Building, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Turbine Building, 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Control Building, 271.3 ft, NGVD29 at the All-Volatile Building, 272.8 ft, NGVD29 at the Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building, 273.5 ft, NGVD29 at the proposed Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building Annex, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Screen House, and 258.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Diesel Generator Building.

FHR-COMBINED Page 19 of 231 A ARE VA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this calculation is to assess the combined-effect flood mechanisms for the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna). Ginna is located in Ontario, Wayne County, NY along the southern shore of Lake Ontario. Ginna is protected from flooding from Lake Ontario by a stone revetment. A concrete-lined discharge canal conveys flow from the site to Lake Ontario through the stone revetment. The confluence of two streams, Deer Creek (which generally flows west to east) and Mill Creek (which generally flows south to north) is located near the southwestern portion of the site. The streams flow along the southern portion of the site into Lake Ontario. For the purposes of this calculation, the portion of the stream from the confluence point of Mill Creek and Deer Creek to the discharge point into Lake Ontario will be referred to as Deer Creek. A locus map of the site is included as Figure 1. This calculation is to support the flood hazard re-evaluation for Ginna. This calculation uses AREVA Document No. 32-9190273-000 "Probable Maximum Flood Flow in streams near R.E. Ginna" (Reference 1), AREVA Document No. 32-9190274-000 "Probable Maximum Flood Elevations at R.E. Ginna" (Reference 2), AREVA Document No. 32-9190276-000 "Probable Maximum Winds and Associated Meteorological Parameters at R.E. Ginna" (Reference 29), AREVA Document No. 32-9190277-000 "Probable Maximum Storm Surge at R.E. Ginna" (Reference 27) and AREVA Document No. 32-9190279-000 "Wind Generated Waves for R.E. Ginna" (Reference 28) as inputs. This calculation was prepared by GZA GeoEnvironmental, Inc, under subcontract to AREVA, Inc. Datum: All elevations in this calculation refer to NGVD29 vertical datum unless otherwise noted. Elevations in the Updated Safety Report (UFSAR) reference Mean Sea Level (MSL), which for areas distant from tidal fluctuations (i.e., Ginna) are considered to be the same as the NGVD29 vertical datum. To convert elevations from NAVD88 to NGVD29, add 0.69 feet to the NAVD88 elevations (Reference 3, see Appendix A). 2.0 ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY The calculation methodology is described below. Unless noted otherwise, the methodology used in the calculation is consistent with the following standards and guidance documents:

FHR-COMBINED Page 20 of 231 A AREVA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant The Hierarchical Hazard Assessment (HHA) approach described in NUREG/CR-7046 (Reference 7) was used for the evaluation of the effects of the combined-effects flood on the Deer Creek at Ginna. The criteria for combined events are provided in NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H. These criteria are:
- 1. Floods Caused by Precipitation Events The criteria for floods caused by precipitation events were used as one input to the combined event result (NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H, Section H.1). The criteria include the following:
" Alternative 1 - A combination of mean monthly base flow, median soil moisture, antecedent or subsequent rain, the PMP, and waves induced by 2-year wind speed applied along the critical direction; " Alternative 2 - A combination of mean monthly base flow, probable maximum snowpack, a 100-year snow-season rainfall, and waves induced by 2-year wind speed applied along the critical direction; and " Alternative 3 - A combination of mean monthly base flow, a 100-year snowpack, snow-season PMP, and waves induced by 2-year wind speed applied along the critical direction.
- 2. Floods Caused by Seismic Dam Failures The criteria for floods caused by seismic dam failures (NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H, Section H.2) were also considered. The criteria include:
- Alternative 1 - A combination of a 25-year flood, a flood caused by dam failure resulting from a safe shutdown earthquake (SSE), and coincident with the peak of the 25-year flood, and waves induced by 2-year wind speed applied along the critical direction;
" Alternative 2 - A combination of the lesser of one-half of Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) or the 500-year flood, a flood caused by dam failure resulting from an operating basis earthquake (OBE), and coincident with the peak of one-half of PMF or the 500-year flood, and waves induced by 2-year wind speed applied along the critical direction.
The alternatives presented under floods caused by precipitation events and floods caused by seismic dam failures are bounded by failure of all the dams in the watershed coincident with the PMF. The riverine flooding combination used for this analysis is therefore failure of dams during the PMF, and waves induced by 2-year wind speed applied along the critical direction.
- 3. Floods along the Shores of Open and Semi-Enclosed Bodies of Water The criteria for floods along the shore of open or semi-enclosed bodies of water (NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H, Section H.3) do not apply to Ginna since the site is not on an open or semi-enclosed body of water.
- 4. Floods along the Shores of Enclosed Bodies of Water Ginna is located along the southern shore of Lake Ontario. Lake Ontario is an enclosed water body approximately 7,300 square miles in surface area. The criteria for floods along the shore of enclosed Page 10
FHR-COMBINED Page 21 of 231 A ARE VA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant bodies of water (streamside location) (NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H, Section H.4.2) was considered in this calculation. The criteria include:
- Alternative 1 - A combination of one-half of the PMF or the 500-year flood, surge and seiche from the worst regional hurricane or windstorm with wind-wave activity and the lesser of the 100-year or the maximum controlled water level in the enclosed body of water;
" Alternative 2 - A combination of the PMF in the stream, a 25-year surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the lesser of the 100-year or the maximum controlled water level in the enclosed body of water;
- Alternative 3 - A combination of a 25-year flood in the stream, probable maximum surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the lesser of the 100-year or the maximum controlled water level in the enclosed water body.
These alternatives were analyzed to determine the controlling combined-effect alternative at Ginna.
- 5. Floods Caused by Tsunamis Combined event floods associated with tsunamis are included as part of the analyses required by NUREG/CR-7046 (Appendix H, Section H.5). Evaluation of the potential for tsunamis at the Ginna site (AREVA Document No. 51-9190872-000 "Tsunami Hazard Assessment at R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Site" - Reference 26) concluded that tsunamis are not a significant flood-causing mechanism.
Therefore, no further analysis of tsunami-induced flooding combined with other mechanisms has been performed. The combined event evaluation for Ginna used the following steps:
- 1. Calculate the maximum stillwater elevation (including dam failures) on the Deer Creek at Ginna using models developed for calculations 32-9190273-000 "Probable Maximum Flood Flow in Streams near R.E. Ginna" (Reference 1) and 32-9190274-000 "Probable Maximum Flood Elevations in Streams near R.E. Ginna" (Reference 2).
- 2. Calculate the wind wave effects and wave runup on Deer Creek at Ginna using the CEDAS-ACES v4.3 Computer Program (Reference 9);
- 3. Calculate the Probable Maximum Water Elevation at Ginna resulting from the combined-effect flood caused by the Precipitation;
- 4. Calculate the Probable Maximum Water Elevation at Ginna resulting from combined-effect floods along the Shores of Enclosed Bodies of Water based on AREVA Calculations 32-9190277-000 "Probable Maximum Storm Surge for R.E. Ginna" (Reference 27) and 32-9190279-000 "Wind Generated Waves for R.E. Ginna (Reference 28).
- 5. Determine controlling Probable Maximum Water Elevation at Ginna based on the results from the above analysis.

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant 2.1 Calculate Maximum Stillwater Elevations on Deer Creek at Ginna Failure of upstream dams during the PMF was analyzed to establish the maximum stillwater elevation at Ginna resulting from riverine flooding mechanism. The methodology used in this analysis is described in Sections 2.1.1 to 2.1.3. 2.1.1 Identify Upstream Dams Upstream dams were identified using the New York State Inventory of Dams (NYSID), which is maintained by the Department of Environmental Conservation (Reference 10, see Appendix B). Dam characteristics (i.e. height, maximum storage, and dam type) were downloaded from the inventory. The dam locations were imported into ArcMap 10.0 and converted into a point shapefile. 2.1.2 Develop Dam Breach Hydrologic Simulations A HEC-HMS model of the contributory watersheds at Ginna was developed. The model's hydrologic parameters were consistent with those used in AREVA Document No. 32-9190273-000 "Probable Maximum Flood Flow in Streams near R.E. Ginna" (Reference 1). Note that nonlinear adjustments to unit hydrographs were incorporated in this HEC-HMS model. The identified dams were modeled as reservoir elements in HEC-HMS, and linked to the appropriate sub-basin element with reaches and junctions. Reservoir pool elevations prior to the breaching of the dams were conservatively assumed to be at the top of dam elevation. Dam breach parameters for the HEC-HMS model were selected based on published guidance (References 11, 12, and 13, see Appendix C). Parameters for dams are described below: a) Breach Method = Overtopping; b) Top Elevation (ft) = Dam Height (ft); c) Bottom Elevation (ft) = 0; d) Side Slope = 0.5 (Reference 12, see Appendix C); e) Average Breach Width = 3 x Dam Height (References 12 and 13, see Appendix C). Published references indicate typical dam breach widths are between one and five times the dam height (Reference 12) and often about 3 times the dam height for earthen dams (Reference 13); 1 f) Bottom Width (ft) = Average Breach Width - 2 x (Side Slope x / x Dam Height); g) Development Time (hr) = 0.17 hours (Based on material composition of Dam and Reference 12); h) Trigger Method = Specified Time; i) Trigger Time = Selected such that initiation of the dam breach coincides with the peak PMF from the watershed in which the dam is located; Page 12

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant j) Progression Method = Linear; k) Storage Method = Elevation-Area, based on surface area of reservoir and conical volume. River reaches were incorporated in the HEC-HMS model to account for attenuation. The Muskingum-Cunge method was selected and it uses a combination of the conservation of momentum and conservation of mass to simulate river routing. "Routing parametersare recalculatedevery time step based on channelproperties and flow depths. It representsattenuation of flood waves and can be used in reaches with a small slope." (Reference 14) Parameters for reaches are described below: a) Reach cross-section = estimated based on the topographic survey of the site (Reference 15); b) Length of reach = the total length of the reach in units of feet (Reference 16). Length was calculated using the "Calculate Geometry" function of ArcMap 10TM; C) Slope = based on the digital elevation model data within the watershed area (Reference 17, see Appendix D); and d) Manning's roughness coefficient (Reference 20, see Appendix D) = selected based on visual interpretation of the ground conditions using available orthoimagery (Reference 18, see Appendix D) and land cover data (Reference 19, see Appendix D). The all-season 72-hr PMP hyetograph used in AREVA Document No. 32-9190273-000 "Probable Maximum Flood Flow in Streams near R.E. Ginna" (Reference 1) was used for this calculation. The PMP consists of 3 days of 40-percent of the PMP, followed by 3 dry days and followed by 3 days of the full PMP, in accordance with NUREG/CR-7046 (Reference 7). HEC-HMS internally calculates flow through the user-specified dam breach section based on the weir equation for overtopping dam failures (Reference 14). 2.1.3 Develop Hydraulic Simulations with Combined PMF and Dam Breach Outflow to calculate the probable maximum Stillwater elevation on Deer Creek The FLO-2D model developed in AREVA Document 32-9190274-000 (Reference 2) was used in this calculation. The calculated, combined dam breach and PMF flows in the Deer Creek and Mill Creek at Ginna in Section 2.1 were used as inflows within the FLO-2D model to calculate the probable maximum stillwater elevation on the creek at Ginna. 2.2 Calculate Wind-Wave Effects on Deer Creek Ginna would be susceptible to the formation of wind generated waves on both Lake Ontario and on Deer Creek. The wind generated waves on Lake Ontario were developed in Calculation No. 32-9190279-000 (Reference 28). This calculation estimates the wind generated waves on Deer Creek at the site. The calculation methodology includes the following steps, further described in Sections 2.2.1 through 2.2.4, below.
- 1. Calculate the straight line fetch; Page 13
FHR-COMBINED Page 24 of 231 A AREVA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant
- 2. Calculate Sustained Wind Speed:
Calculate the 2-year return period wind speed using the fastest 2-minute wind speed data from National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) Station GHCND:USW00014768 (Reference 21, see Appendix E), by applying the Gumbel Distribution to the observed data;
- 3. Calculate wave height and period using CEDAS-ACES v.4.03 wave prediction application;
- 4. Determine the wave runup using CEDAS-ACES v.4.03 wave runup.
2.2.1 Determine the Greatest Straight Line Fetch The greatest over water fetch for the most conservative value for wind generated waves on the Deer Creek was determined from the FLO-2D model output showing the inundation extents (Figure 9). The fetch was considered to be the largest continuous wetted top width across Deer Creek in the vicinity of the main power block at Ginna. 2.2.2 Calculate the Sustained Wind Speed The 10-meter, 2-year annual recurrence interval wind speed was required for the coincident wind wave calculations as part of the combined-effects flood analysis as per NUREG/CR-7046 (Reference 7). The fastest daily 10-meter, 2-minute duration wind speed from NCDC Station Global Historical Climatology Network-Daily (GHCND): USW00014768 (Greater Rochester International Airport, New York), was used and converted to the equivalent 10-meter, 30 minute duration average wind speed. Conversion of the raw data to the 2 year wind speed was done using the following steps:
- 1. The 2-minute wind speed data from NCDC Station GHCND: USWO0014768 was downloaded and imported into ExcelTM in tab delimited format. The period of record for this station was from 1996 to 2012, approximately 17 years. Station GHCND: USW00014768 is located at the Greater Rochester International Airport, New York (see Appendix E). The location is flat ground with no obstruction from trees and buildings and is therefore an appropriate station for use as wind input. This station was the closest station to the site with available data.
- 2. The greatest wind speed from each year during the period of record was selected. The annual maximum wind speeds were sorted in descending order. The Gumbel Distribution, a Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) Distribution, was used to calculate the 2 year recurrence wind speed.
2.2.3 Development of the Wave Height and Period CEDAS-ACES v.4.03, developed by the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station, includes an application for determining wave growth over open-water and restricted fetches in deep and shallow water. The simplified wave growth formula predict deepwater wave growth in accordance to fetch and duration-limited criteria. These formulas are bounded (at the upper limit) by the estimates for a fully developed spectrum (Reference 22). The following variables were developed as input to the program to calculate wave height and period: Page 14
FHR-COMBINED Page 25 of 231 A AREVA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant
- 1. The elevation, duration, observation type, and speed of the observed wind speed from Section 2.2.2;
- 2. The air-sea temperature difference (See Appendix F);
- 3. Duration of the final wind speed (See Appendix F);
- 4. Latitude of the Observed Wind Speed (Appendix F); and
- 5. Wind fetch length, as determined through procedures described in Section 2.2.1.
2.2.4 Development of the Wave Runup The runup on impermeable slopes application of the CEDAS-ACES v4.03 software program is based on an empirical runup equation developed by Ahrens and Titus as described in Reference 22. Wind generated waves on the Deer Creek will break and runup on the southern end of the power block (Contaminated Storage Building). The effect of wind generated waves on Deer Creek is therefore not expected to extend beyond the southern end of the plant. 2.2.4.1 Development of the Nearshore and Structure Slopes Nearshore slopes were estimated from the site topographic survey plan (Reference 15). Because the water depths vary spatially, an average water depth along the fetch was calculated. Wave growth was determined to be governed by shallow open water conditions. The nearshore slope was determined based on the existing site grades along the selected fetch line. In this calculation, the wave runup is calculated against the southern wall of the main power block (building labeled as "plant" in Figure 2). The structure slope was determined based on a vertical wall. 2.2.4.2 Development of Wave Runup on Smooth Slopes The equations for runup on a smooth slope were used. The general equation for runup (R) on smooth slopes is characterized by the following equation: R = CHi The coefficient C is characterized by the surf similarity parameter ý according to three wave structure regimes (Reference 22):
* (t < 2) waves plunging directly on the run-up slope.
S(, > 3.5) wave conditions that are nonbreaking and are regarded as standing or surging waves.
* (2< t < 3.5) transition conditions where breaking characteristics are difficult to define The recommended expressions for coefficient C corresponding to these regimes are defined by the following:

Waves that strike structures will run up those structures, resulting in an increase in the height of the water at the face of the structure. The probable maximum stillwater elevation on Deer Creek at the southern end of the plant power block at Ginna resulting from the combined effect of floods caused by precipitation events was calculated by adding the predicted wave runup on the Deer Creek to the stillwater elevations resulting from the combination of upstream dam failure and the PMF. 2.4 Calculate the Probable Maximum Water Elevation resulting from the combined-effect of floods along the shores of Enclosed Bodies of Water. The alternatives outlined under the criteria for floods along the shore of enclosed bodies of water (Streamside location) (NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H, Section H.4.2) were analyzed to determine the controlling alternative at Ginna.

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant 2.4.1 Combination of one-half of the PMF, worst regional surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in the Lake Ontario. One-half of the PMF was calculated using the HEC-HMS model developed for AREVA Document No. 32-9190273-000 (Reference 1). One-half of the PMF was calculated as half the runoff generated from the PMP calculated in AREVA Document No. 32-9190273-000 (Reference 1). All other inputs to the HEC-HMS model were the same as those used in the HEC-HMS model in Reference 1. The worst regional surge on Lake Ontario was determined from water level data contained in AREVA Document No. 32-9190276-000 (Reference 29). See Appendix L. The maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was determined in AREVA Document No. 32-9190277-000 (Reference 27). Overtopping flow rates at the stone revetment resulting from the combination of the worst regional surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was calculated in AREVA Document No. 32-9190279-000 (Reference 28). The calculated overtopping flow rates for the combination of the worst regional surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was combined with one-half the PMF on Deer Creek using the FLO-2D model developed in AREVA Document 32-9190274-000 (Reference 2) to determine the maximum water levels resulting from this alternative. 2.4.2 Combination of the PMF in Deer Creek, a 25-year surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in the Lake Ontario. The PMF in the Deer Creek computed in Reference 1 was used in the analysis of this alternative. The 25-year surge on Lake Ontario was calculated from water level data contained in AREVA Document No. 32-9190276-000 (Reference 29, Appendix L) as described in Section 2.4.2.1. The maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was determined in AREVA Document No. 32-9190277-000 (Reference 27). Overtopping flow rates at the stone revetment and discharge canal resulting from the combination of the 25-year surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was calculated in AREVA Document No. 32-9190279-000 (Reference 28). The calculated overtopping flow rates for the combination of the 25-year surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was combined with the PMF on Deer Creek using the FLO-2D model developed in AREVA Document 32-9190274-000 (Reference 2) to determine the maximum water levels resulting from this alternative. 2.4.2.1 Calculation of the 25-year Surge The 25-year surge water level was calculated based on water level data for Rochester, NY (Reference
- 32) See Appendix L. The location of the Rochester water level station is shown in Figure 10. The maximum hourly water level in each year was obtained for the 50-year period of record and a frequency analysis was performed. The recommended distribution for data set transformations of this type is the log-Pearson Type III distribution (Reference 33). The 25-year surge water level was calculated as follows:
- 1. The hourly water level data for each complete year of data available was sorted to determine the yearly maximum hourly water level (HWL) for each year in the data set. The yearly maximums were transformed with (base 10) logarithm.
- 2. Sample statistics including mean, number of samples in the data set, standard deviation and skew coefficient were calculated using the following equations.

- 3. For skew coefficients from -9.0 to 9.0, the frequency factor coefficients (K) for exceedance probabilities from 0.9999 to 0.0001 were determined using the "Tables of K Values" in Appendix 3 of USGS Bulletin 17b (U.S. Dept. of the Interior, 1982). The log of the water levels corresponding to their respective exceedance probabilities are defined by the following equation:
Log(SurgeWaterLevel) = X + K
- S where:
K = Frequency Factor Coefficient
- 4. The 25-year surge water level was calculated by taking the antilog of the log mean water level.
2.4.3 Combination of the 25-year flood in Deer Creek, the probable maximum surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in the Lake Ontario. The 25-year flood in Deer Creek was calculated using the HEC-HMS model developed for AREVA Document No. 32-9190273-000 (Reference 1). The 25-year, 24-hour precipitation depth and distribution used in the HEC-HMS model were based on reference 31. All other inputs to the HEC-HMS model were the same as those used in the HEC-HMS model in Reference 1. The probable maximum surge on Lake Ontario was calculated in AREVA Document No. 32-9190277-000 (Reference 27). The maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was also determined in AREVA Document No. 32-9190277-000 (Reference 27). Overtopping flow rates at the stone revetment and discharge canal resulting from the combination of the probable maximum surge and seiche with wind-wave Page 18

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was calculated in AREVA Document No. 32-9190279-000 (Reference 28). The calculated overtopping flow rates for the combination of the probable maximum surge and seiche with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario was combined with the 25-year flood in Deer Creek to determine the maximum water levels resulting from this alternative. 2.5 Determine the controlling Probable Maximum Water Surface Elevations at Ginna The results from the combined-effect flood alternatives for both floods caused by precipitation events and floods along the shores of enclosed bodies of water were analyzed to determine the probable maximum water surface elevations at Ginna. The alternative that results in the highest water surface elevations at Ginna was selected as the controlling combined-effect flood alternative. 3.0 ASSUMPTIONS Unverified key assumptions are those requiring confirmation of applicability by users of the calculation and its results. There are no unverified key assumptions in this calculation. The following assumptions were used in the calculation:
" Potential for tsunamis at the Ginna to control flood elevations is not significant and bounded by flooding due to the combination of the PMF and dam breach within the contributory watershed at Ginna (Reference 26). " Reservoir pool elevations prior to the breaching of the dams were at the top of dam elevation. " Other assumptions used in calculations to support the combined effect flood evaluation are included in Sections 6.1 through 6.5. None of the assumptions require confirmation of applicability by users of the calculation prior to use of the calculation results.

The results of the test were acceptable. 6.0 CALCULATIONS 6.1 Calculate Maximum Stillwater Elevations on Deer Creek at Ginna 6.1.1 Identify Upstream Dams Based on a review of the data in the NYSID (Reference 10), three dams are within the contributory watershed. Maccines Marsh Dam is located in the Deer Creek Watershed, about 2.5 miles southwest of Ginna. Fruitland Mill Dam and William Daly Marsh Dam are located in the Mill Creek Watershed, about 4 and 7.5 miles southwest of Ginna, respectively. The dam coordinates were imported into ArcMap 10.0, and the dam locations are shown in Figure 3. All three dams are classified as "Earth" in "Dam Type" according to the NYSID. Field observation and available information indicate the dams are likely non-engineered structures. Dam breach parameters for non-engineered earthen dams were therefore used for this calculation. 6.1.2 Perform Dam Breach Hydrologic Simulations Dam breach parameters are summarized in Table 1 (see Appendix C for spreadsheet calculations). HEC-HMS reach parameters are summarized in Table 2 (see Appendix D for spreadsheet calculations). The HEC-HMS basin model is shown in Figure 4. The dams were modeled as reservoir elements. Junctions 2 and 3 were used to calculate the total corresponding resultant flow from runoff and dam failure for each subwatershed, and Junction 1 was used to calculate the total resultant flow from the entire contributory watershed. The calculated total outflow from the Deer Creek Watershed with dam breach is 8,140 cfs, and the calculated total outflow from the Mill Creek Watershed with dam breach is 20,530 cfs. The resultant combined peak outflow at Ginna is 28,460 cfs. Breaching of the upstream dams within the Deer Creek and Mill Creek watersheds during the PMF resulted in no significant change in the peak PMF calculated in Reference 1. These results are presented in Table 3. The HEC-HMS calculated outflow hydrographs from the dam breach during the PMF simulation are shown in Figures 5 through 7. Inputs and outputs from the HEC-HMS simulations are included in Appendix G. 6.1.3 Perform Hydraulic Simulations with Combined PMF and Dam Breach Outflow to calculate the probable maximum Stillwater elevation on Deer Creek The FLO-2D model developed in AREVA Document 32-9190274-000 (Reference 2) was used to estimate the peak stillwater elevation resulting from the combination of upstream dam failures and the PMF. The HEC-HMS calculated flow hydrographs from Section 6.1.2 were used as inflows in the FLO-2D model. The calculated probable maximum stillwater elevations at the site are shown in Table 4. The probable maximum stillwater elevation is 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Reactor Containment Building, 272.6 ft, NGVD29 at the Auxiliary Building, 258.1 ft, NGVD29 at the Turbine Building, 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Page 21

FLO-2D inputs and outputs are included in Appendix H. 6.2 Results of Wind-Generated Wave Effects on Deer Creek 6.2.1 Determine the Greatest Straight Line Fetch The inundation extent at Ginna due to the combination of upstream dam failures and the PMF in Deer Creek and Mill Creeks calculated in Section 6.1.3 was used to determine wetted top width for the fetch shown in Figure 9. The total length of the fetch was 870 ft and the average water depth was determined to be 15.7 ft. 6.2.2 Calculate the Sustained Wind Speed Using the Gumbel Distribution on the 2-minute wind speed data (see Appendix F for ExcelTM spreadsheet and formulas), the 2-year return period wind speed was determined to be 22.5 m/sec or 73.9 ft/sec. The Gumbel Distribution yielded a conservative value for the calculated 2-year wind speed. The modeled values for selected return periods were plotted against the observed data. The calculated value for the 2-year wind speed is nearly the same as the "observed" approximate 2-year wind speed (see Figure F-1, Appendix F). The data from NCDC Station GHCND: USW000014687 is presented in Appendix E. 6.2.3 Calculate the Wave Height and Period The wave prediction application of the CEDAS-ACES v.4.03 was used to determine the shallow water significant wave height and period. The outputs from the model are provided in Appendix I. The wind duration of 120 minutes was conservatively used. The wave height was calculated to be 0.7 ft with a wave period of 1.2 seconds. 6.2.4 Determination of the Wave Runup The wave runup on impermeable structures application was selected to calculate the wave runup at Ginna from the CEDAS-ACES v.4.03 program. The inputs for the wave runup calculation are presented in Table 4. Calculated results are shown in Appendix I. The results indicate maximum wave runup at the southern end of the power block at Ginna (south end of Contaminated Storage Building) of 0.9 feet. 6.3 Calculate the Probable Maximum Water Elevation at Ginna resulting from the floods caused by precipitation event The probable maximum water elevation resulting from the combined-effect flood caused by precipitation event at Ginna is the combination of this Stillwater elevation and wave runup induced by Page 22
FHR-COMBINED Page 33 of 231 A AR EVA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant the 2-year wind speed. Wave runup resulting from Deer Creek flooding is not expected to influence the stillwater elevations at the site with the exception of the southern end of the site. The probable maximum water surface elevations resulting from a precipitation event causing flooding in Deer Creek, in ft, NGVD29 are those stated in Section 6.1.3. 6.4 Calculate the Probable Maximum Water Elevation resulting from the combined-effect of floods along the shores of Enclosed Bodies of Water. The results of the alternatives outlined under the criteria for floods along the shore of enclosed bodies of water (Streamside location) (NUREG/CR-7046, Appendix H, Section H.4.2) are discussed in Sections 6.4.1 to 6.4.3. 6.4.1 Combination of one-half of the PMF, worst regional surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario. The peak flow rate from one-half of the PMF at Ginna is calculated to be 14,230 cfs. The worst regional surge is calculated to be 1.3 ft (Appendix L) and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario is calculated to be 248 ft, NGVD29 (Reference 27). The overtopping flow rates resulting from the combination of the worst regional surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario are shown in Table 5 (Reference 28). FLO-2D model results from the combination of one-half the PMF, and the overtopping flow rates resulting from the combination of the worst regional surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario, is shown in Table 8. Flooding at Ginna from this alternative is limited to the Turbine Building, Proposed Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building, Screen House and the Diesel Generator Building. Maximum Flood Elevations at the Turbine Building, Proposed Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building, Screen House and the Diesel Generator Building are 255 ft, NGVD29, 270 ft, NGVD29, 254.9 ft, NGVD29 and 254.9 ft, NGVD29 respectively. 6.4.2 Combination of the PMF in Deer Creek, a 25-year surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in the Lake Ontario. 6.4.2.1 Calculation of the 25-year Surge The 25-year surge elevation on Lake Ontario at Ginna was evaluated using the the recorded hourly water levels at NOAA Station 9052058 (Reference 32) in Rochester, NY for the period 1962 - 2012. The results of the transformation are presented in Appendix L, Table L-1. The calculation of the 25-yr surge water level is presented in Appendix L, Table L-2. The 25-year surge water level was calculated to be 0.95 feet. 6.4.2.2 Combination of PMF in Deer Creek and overtopping flow rates from the combination of the 25-year surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario The Deer Creek PMF peak flow rate at Ginna was computed in Reference 1 to be 28,460 cfs. The 25-year surge on Lake Ontario is calculated to be 0.95 ft and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario is calculated to be 248 ft, NGVD29 (Reference 27). Page 23
FHR-COMBINED Page 34 of 231 A AREVA Document No. 32-9190280-000 Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant The overtopping flow rates resulting from the combination of the 25-year surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario are listed in Table 6 (Reference 28). FLO-2D model results from the combination of the PMF with upstream dam failures, and the overtopping flow rates resulting from the combination of the 25-year surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario is shown in Table 9. The resulting maximum water surface elevations from this alternative are 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Reactor Containment Building, 272.6 ft, NGVD29 at the Auxiliary Building, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Turbine Building, 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Control Building, 271.3 ft, NGVD29 at the All-Volatile Building, 272.8 ft, NGVD29 at the Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building, 273.5 ft, NGVD29 at the proposed Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building Annex, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Screen House, and 258.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Diesel Generator Building. 6.4.3 Combination of the 25-year flood in Deer Creek, the probable maximum surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in the Lake Ontario. The peak flow rate from the 25-year storm in Deer Creek at Ginna is calculated to be 3,000 cfs. The peak flow of 3,000 cfs results from a total precipitation depth of 3.79 inches over 24 hours. (Appendix M). The probable maximum surge is calculated to be 3.2 ft (Reference 27) and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario is calculated to be 248 ft, NGVD29 (Reference 27). The overtopping flow rates resulting from the combination of the probable maximum surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario are shown in Table 7 (Reference 28). FLO-2D model results from the combination of the 25-year storm in Deer Creek at Ginna, and the overtopping flow rates resulting from the combination of the probable maximum surge with wind-wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario are shown in Table 10. Flooding at Ginna from this alternative is limited to the Turbine Building, Screen House and the Diesel Generator Building due to wave activity (i.e., flooding in Deer Creek due to the 25-yr flood does not affect the site). Maximum Flood Elevations at the Turbine Building, Screen House and the Diesel Generator Building resulting from this alternative is 254.9 ft, NGVD29. 6.5 Determine the controlling Probable Maximum Water Surface Elevations at Ginna The combination of PMF in the Deer Creek at Ginna with the 25-year surge with wind wave activity and the maximum controlled water level in Lake Ontario yields the highest water surface elevations at Ginna (Section 6.4.2). This alternative is therefore the controlling alternative in determining the probable maximum water surface elevations at Ginna. The Probable Maximum Water Surface Elevation at Ginna is 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Reactor Containment Building, 272.6 ft, NGVD29 at the Auxiliary Building, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Turbine Building, 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Control Building, 271.3 ft, NGVD29 at the All-Volatile Building, 272.8 ft, NGVD29 at the Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building, 273.5 ft, NGVD29 at the proposed Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building Annex, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Screen House, and 258.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Diesel Generator Building. 7.0 RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS NUREG/CR-7046 presents updated methodologies relative to Regulatory Guide 1.59 which are incorporated into this calculation.

- Use of computerized hydrologic, hydraulic and wave height simulation models (i.e., HEC-HMS, FLO-2D and CEDAS-ACES v.4.03 ) to develop the dam breach outflow, maximum flood elevations and wave height;
- Identification of specific alternatives (i.e., Appendix H of NUREG/CR-7046) for evaluation in combined effect flooding.
The following summarizes the results and conclusions:
- 1. The bounding combined-effect flooding mechanism at Ginna is the combination of the PMF on the Deer Creek with the 25-year surge with wind-wave activity on Lake Ontario and the maximum controlled water level on the Lake. Under this alternative, waves overtop the stone revetment and discharge canal, increasing the PMF water surface elevations at the northern end of the site by 0.1 ft.
- 2. The Probable Maximum Water Elevation at Ginna including wave effects is calculated to be 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Reactor Containment Building, 272.6 ft, NGVD29 at the Auxiliary Building, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Turbine Building, 272.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Control Building, 271.3 ft, NGVD29 at the All-Volatile Building, 272.8 ft, NGVD29 at the Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building, 273.5 ft, NGVD29 at the proposed Standby Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Building Annex, 258.2 ft, NGVD29 at the Screen House, and 258.4 ft, NGVD29 at the Diesel Generator Building.

Description. Abstract: A point file to show the location of dams in the New York State Inventory of Dams. Purpose. This dataset is used to show the location of dams in New York State's inventory of dams, and lists selected attributes of each dam. Supplemental Information.
- 1. While we try to maintain an accurate inventory, this data should not be relied upon for emergency response decision-making. We recommend that critical data, including dam location and hazard classification, be verified in the field. The presence or absence of a dam in this inventory does not indicate its regulatory status. Any corrections should be submitted to the Dam Safety Section with supporting information.
- 2. There are approximately 17 dams in this dataset that do not have X Y locations.

FHR-COMBINED Page 95 of 231 Preface These engineering guidelines have been prepared by the Office of Energy Projects (OEP) to provide guidance to the technical Staff in the processing of applications for license and in the evaluation of dams under Part 12 of the Commission's regulations. The Guidelines will also be used to evaluate proposed modifications or additions to existing projects under the jurisdiction of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission). Staff technical personnel consist of the professional disciplines (e.g. professional engineers and geologists) that have the responsibility for reviewing studies and evaluating designs prepared by owners or developers of dams. The guidelines are intended to provide technical personnel of the Office of Energy Projects, including the Regional Office and Washington Office personnel with procedures and criteria for the engineering review and analysis of projects over which the Commission has jurisdiction. In addition, these guidelines should be used by staff in the evaluation of consultant or licensee/exemptee conducted studies. The guidance is intended to cover the majority of studies usually encountered by Staff. However, special cases may require deviation from, or modification of; the guidelines. When such cases arise, Staff must determine the applicability of alternate criteria or procedures based upon their experience and must exercise sound engineering judgment when considering situations not covered by the guidelines. The alternate procedures, or criteria, used in these situations should be justified and accompanied by any suggested changes for incorporation in the guidelines. Since every dam site and hydropower related structure is unique, individual design considerations and construction treatment will be required. Technical judgment is therefore required in most analytical studies. These guidelines are not a substitute for good engineering judgment, nor are the procedures recommended herein to be applied rigidly in place of other analytical solutions to engineering problems encountered by staff. Staff should keep in mind that the engineering profession is not limited to a specific solution to each problem, and that the results are the desired end to problem solving. These guidelines are primarily intended for internal use by OEP stafi but also provide licensees, exemptees, and applicants with general guidance that should be considered when presenting any studies presented to the Commission under Parts 4 and 12 of the Regulations (18 CFR, Parts 4 and 12). When any portions of the Guidelines becomes outdated, obsolete, or needs revision for any reason, it will be revised and supplemented as necessary. Comments on, or recommended changes, in these Guidelines should be forwarded to the Director of the Division of Inspections for consideration and possible inclusion in future updates. New pages will be prepared and issued with instructions for page replacements.

FHR-COMBINED Page 102 of 231 Guidelines for Dam Breach Analysis February 10, 2010 estimate of flood magnitude and velocity at critical locations. HEC-RAS is the most widely used hydraulic model for dam safety analyses in the United States and can be utilized for steady and unsteady flow analyses. The latest versions of HEC-RAS (since version 3.0) have a parametric dam breach routine that can calculate a breach outflow hydrograph within an unsteady flow simulation. Another hydraulic model that has been widely used for unsteady flow analyses is the NWS DAMBRK model. The BOSS Corporation has added a graphical user interface while keeping the same numeric algorithm to make the model more user-friendly. This version is called BOSS DAMBRK. The model is based upon the same basic unsteady routing hydraulic principles as HEC-RAS, but DAMBRK was specifically developed for modeling dam failures. The cross-section input requirements for routing dam break floods require the same number of points to represent every cross section, which limits its usefulness. 6.0 A Tiered Dam Breach Analysis Structure Given the wide range of conditions that could exist at a dam and in its failure path, and the modeling options available, there are many choices to be made while performing a dam breach analysis for a hazard classification study or to develop inundation maps for emergency preparedness documents. Because dam breach analyses will not always require the most sophisticated tools available, a tiered approach is recommended. The tiered approach matches the appropriate level of analysis with a given situation. The goal is to make the most efficient use of time and available tools while producing results that are appropriately conservative. Table 1 shows a matrix of the tiered dam breach analysis structure. As shown, various tools can be utilized in part or all together, depending on the nature of the analysis that is required. Rows in the table represent the level of analysis and the columns represent a four-step breach analysis process. In general, as the level of analysis increases, so does the level of effort (time) needed to complete it. However, as the analysis increases in complexity, less conservative assumptions can be used, and the results are considered more accurate. 6.1 Screening Assuming that a presumptive determination (by inspection) of hazard classification is not practical, the first level of analysis is Screening. Screening is meant to be a cursory, yet conservative level of analysis that can be performed rapidly. The analysis ignores dam break hydrograph development. The breach parameters determined from empirical methods are calculated and used for input into the SMPDBK peak discharge equation, or an orifice equation assuming instantaneous piping hole formation. Empirical routing equations or nomographs can be used to estimate the attenuation of the flood wave downstream of the dam. One empirical routing equation was developed by the USBR in 1982 "Guidelines for Defining Inundation Areas Downstream from Bureau of Reclamation Dams". This equation follows: Qr = l0t09(Q')-O'O1X Where: X= distance in miles downstream of the dam measured along the flood plain. Q,-- peak discharge in cfs corresponding to distance X. Q,= peak dam break discharge at the dam in cfs. 9
FHR-COMBINED Page 103 of 231 February 10. 2010 Guidelines for Dam Rreach Analvsis Februarv 10 2010 The hydraulic conditions at critical locations downstream of the dam can usually be determined with normal depth calculations as long as steady, uniform flow is a valid assumption (i.e. no significant backwater effects in the vicinity of the section). Because the screening level of analysis is very conservative, it can be used to determine if further analysis is required. It is expected that, if the hydraulics calculated at critical locations indicate a specific hazard classification with a screening-level analysis, then more sophisticated analyses would not likely result in a higher hazard classification. So if a screening analysis indicates a Low Hazard, no further analysis is required. If the screening analysis indicates High or Significant Hazard, a more accurate, less conservative approach may show a lower hazard classification and additional analysis may be warranted to demonstrate this depending on the situation. Note that the screening level of analysis does not lead to inundation maps which are required for Significant and High Hazard dams. The minimum level of analysis required to develop inundations maps is the next level: Simple. 6.2 Simple The Simple level of analysis is slightly more sophisticated than the screening analysis. Results of the Simple level of analysis may provide the necessary conclusion, or may indicate that the intermediate or advanced approach is warranted. This analysis uses the recommended empirical methods to determine the breach parameters and then uses a hydrologic parametric model (HEC-HMS or HEC-1) to compute a breach hydrograph. The hydrologic tool can then be used to route the flood downstream to critical locations. At that point, a steady-state hydraulic model can be used to calculate the hydraulic conditions where required. 10
FHR-COMBINED Page 104 of 231 Guidelines for Dam Breach Analysis February 10, 2010 The Simple approach is considered moderately conservative. In most cases, it is not as conservative as the Screening level because the breach hydrograph typically has a smaller peak due to the parametric modeling of the breach formation, and the hydrologic routing typically results in flood wave attenuation by the time it reaches critical locations. A steady-state hydraulic model can then be used to accurately predict hydraulic conditions at critical locations. The results of the steady-state hydraulic model can be used to create inundation mapping for Emergency Action Plans. If this method results in a borderline situation, it may be necessary to employ a more advanced approach. 6.3 Intermediate The Intermediate approach lies between the simple approach and advanced approach in accuracy and sophistication. Similar to the simple approach, it uses empirical equations to determine the breach parameters (geometry and failure time). Those dimensions are then input into a hydrologic parametric model (HEC-HMS or HEC-1) to calculate the breach flood hydrograph which is then input into a hydraulic model (HEC-RAS) in an unsteady flow simulation to route the flood downstream and calculate the hydraulic conditions at critical locations. This approach may not be as accurate as the advanced approach for piping failures of smaller dams because the usage of HEC-1 and HEC-HMS to develop the dam break hydrographs may not model this process as accurately as HEC-RAS or DAMBRK. However, it may be just as accurate as the advanced approach for overtopping scenarios or for piping failures of larger dams. This approach is a viable option for developing flood inundation mapping for Emergency Action Plans. 6.4 Advanced The Advanced approach is the most rigorous level of analysis. Similar to the Simple approach, it uses empirical equations to determine the breach parameters (geometry and failure time). Those dimensions are then input into a hydraulic parametric model (HEC-RAS or DAMBRK) to calculate the breach flood For DAMBRK the hydrograph is then input into (HEC-RAS) in an unsteady flow simulation to route the flood downstream and calculate the hydraulic conditions at critical locations. For HEC-RAS, the dam failure simulation and downstream routing is performed in the same simulation. The increased accuracy of the Advanced approach comes at the expense of more time required to develop, debug and refine the unsteady hydraulic model. This level of analysis can be time consuming, particularly if the downstream drainage is complex and critical sections are located well downstream. 7.0 Recommendations for Dam Breach Analysis The recommendations presented herein for modeling dam breaches are intended to provide the most realistic dam breach flood estimates while still being appropriately conservative. For the purposes of these recommendations, the term "conservative" means an analysis that tends to overestimate the magnitude and impacts of the dam breach flood. For example, an increase in the estimate of average breach width for a given development time leads to an increase in the peak breach discharge and associated impacts downstream. Being appropriately conservative at this time is warranted because of the need for better physically-based modeling of the erosion processes of dam failures, which is still in the developmental stage. These recommendations are based on case studies performed on a range of dams within Colorado. A summary of the case study results is presented in Appendix A. 11
FHR-COMBINED Page 105 of 231 Uncertainty of Predictions of Embankment Dam Breach Parameters Tony L. Wahl1 Abstract: Risk assessment studies considering the failure of embankment dams often require the prediction of basic geometric and temporal parameters of a breach, or the estimation of peak breach outflows. Many of the relations most commonly used to make these predictions were developed from statistical analyses of data collected from historic dam failures. The prediction uncertainties of these methods are widely recognized to be very large, but have never been specifically quantified. This paper presents an analysis of the uncertainty of many of these breach parameter and peak flow prediction methods. Application of the methods and the uncertainty analysis are illustrated through a case study of a risk assessment recently performed by the Bureau of Reclamation for a large embankment dam in North Dakota. DOI: 10.1061/(ASCE)0733-9429(2004) 130:5(389) CE Database subject headings: Dam failure; Uncertainty analysis; Peak flow; Erosion; Dams, embankment; Risk management.

Table 2 also lists the predictions of the volume of eroded embank-ment material made using the MacDonald and Langridge-Monopolis equation, and the corresponding estimate of average breach width. The uncertainty analysis described earlier showed that the Reclamation equation tends to underestimate the observed breach width, so it is not surprising that it yielded the smallest values. The Von Thun and Gillette equation and the Froehlich equation produced comparable results for the top-of-joint-use scenario, in which reservoir storage is relatively small. For the top-of-flood-space scenario, the Froehlich equation predicts significantly larger Fig. 2. Aerial photo of the dam and reservoir considered in the case breach widths.

Description:
Abstract: A Digital Elevation Model (DEM) contains a series of elevations ordered from south to north with the order of the columns from west to east. The DEM is formatted as one ASCII header record (A-record), followed by a series of profile records (B-records) each of which include a short B-record header followed by a series of ASCII integer elevations per each profile. The last physical record of the DEM is an accuracy record (C-record). The 7.5-minute DEM (10- by 10-m data spacing, elevations in decimeters) is cast on the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection (the quads UTM zone can be found in the header record (Record A)) in the North American Datum of 1927. It provides coverage in 7.5- by 7.5-minute blocks. Each product provides the same coverage as a standard USGS 7.5-minute quadrangle, but overedges are published as separate DEM files. Coverage is available for all quads completely contained within New York State, plus some additional ones falling along the borders and containing significant area of the State's land.
Purpose:
DEMs can be used as source data for digital orthophotos and as layers in geographic information systems for earth science analysis. DEMs can also serve as tools for volumetric analysis, for site location of towers, or for drainage basin delineation. These data are collected as part of the National Mapping Program. Supplemental Information: 7.5-minute DEMs have rows and columns which vary in length and are staggered. The UTM bounding coordinates form a quadrilateral (no two sides are parallel to each other), rather than a rectangle. The user will need to pad out the uneven rows and columns with blanks or flagged data values, if a rectangle is required for the user's application. Some software vendors have incorporated this function into their software for input of standard formatted USGS http://cugir.mannlib.comell.edu/transform~xml=36dea.xml8/021 8/20/2012

Description:
The process can be seen as divided into several tasks, each with associated sub-processes. A. Original Data Source Preparation: 1. The United States Geological Service (USGS) office of Map Production (Mid Continent Mapping Center, Rolla, MO) selects the most recent original printing plates (1:24,000 or 1:25,000 scale) for each published quadrangle map. These plates are archived under controlled environmental conditions and are produced from the original map scripting materials onto dimensionally stable material (Mylar). A copy of the separate is made by contact methods onto photosensitive, opaque, dimensionally stable material. The separate plate copy is shipped to the USGS Mapping Applications Center (Reston, VA). 2. The MAC scans the separate plate with an Ektaprint (a.k.a. Optronics) drum scanner with an aperture of 24um (corresponding to a linear resolution of approx 1030 DPI) into a run-length encoded (RLE) formatted raster file. Contours lines have typically a thickness of 25 to 30 pixels. The file, typically between 10 and 20 Mb, would be checked for completeness and distortion. If satisfactory MAC forwards both the raster file, the plate separate and the corresponding published quadrangle to the digitization workshop at the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Water GIS unit in Albany, NY. B. Raster file batch processing 1. The raster file was loaded into Line Tracer for X Windows (LT4X, Infotec Inc., Portland, Oregon) version 3.1. With it is georegistered and trimmed of any excess margin. 2. The file is put through an automated raster-to-vector batch process in which a vector following the center of the raster line is created, with a minimum vertex separation of 25 pixels. Once the vector has been calculated and the topology of the resultant data established, the resolution of the original raster was reduced to 500 DPI, to allow faster processing in the succeeding steps. C.Vector Contour Edit, Edge Matching and Labeling. 1. The vectorized contours are edited carefully to correct any line breaks, vector webbing (due to pen thickness or lack of resolution of the originals drafting process), labels and special line symbols (depressions, road fills, etc). 2. The contours are labeled with their corresponding elevations, as tagged in the original material. 3. The eight adjoining maps' vector contours are brought in and checked against those of http://cugir.mannlib.comell.edu/transform?xml=36dea.xml 8/20/2012
FHR-COMBINED Page 124 of 231 the map being edited. Vectors of matching labels are snapped together if the gap is less than 3 line-thicknesses. Otherwise they are tagged as "disagreement in the original" (see DLG standards for hypsography layer). For each border only one of the maps is edited. 4. An independent quality control check of contour edits and labeling is carried out. 5. The Digital Elevation Model is interpolated in a batch process (see "Native Dataset Environment" above). D. DEM Edit and Quality Control 1. The resultant DEM is loaded in Delta3D (Infotec Inc., Portland, OR) v. 2.1, together with the corresponding hydrography vectors. The DEM is checked for the presence of irregular patterns, in which case it is returned to the previous process; water body height (e.g. in large lakes) is set for all grid cells within the water body; and drainage along vector streams is enforced by lowering cells higher than the upstream one along the stream. Water retention areas (wetlands, marshes...) are not modified except for stream entrance and exit. - Edge matching with the adjoining eight DEMs. 2. From thirty to thirty-five height reference markers are collected from the corresponding cultural separate for the quadrangle. These are compared to heights as read from the DEM and an statistical RMS is calculated, this is recorded in the DEM's C record. 3. The quadrangle record A is filled and checked for consistency. 4. A final DEM-formatted elevation dataset for the quadrangle is recorded. E. Final Quality Control and Databasing 1. The DEM file is shipped to USGS's Rocky Mountain Mapping Center (Boulder, CO). There it undergoes a separate quality control process which essentially mimics D. 2. The corresponding quality control flags are established. The DEM is sub-sampled to 30 mt grid spacing and the resultant file is forwarded to USGS's EROS Data Center, were it is catalogued into the National Elevation database. The 10 mt grid spacing file is returned to NYS DEC, from where it is forwarded to Cornell University's Mann Library.

Metadata: This service is metadata-enabled. With the Identify tool in ArcMap or the ArcGIS Online Content Viewer, you can see the resolution, collection date, and source of the imagery at the location you click. The metadata applies only to the best available imagery at that location. You may need to zoom in to view the best available imagery. To compare this service with the other imagery services available through ArcGIS Online, use the Imagery comparison app. Reference overlays: The World Boundaries and Places service is designed to be drawn on top of this service as a reference overlay. This is what gets drawn on top of the imagery if you choose the Imagery With Labels basemap in any of the ArcGIS clients. The World Transportation service is designed to be drawn on top of this service to provide street labels when you are zoomed in and streets and roads when you are zoomed out. There are three ready to use web maps that use the World Imagery service as their basemap, Imagery, in which both reference layers are turned off, Imagery with Labels, which has World Boundaries and Places turned on but World Transportation turned off, and Imagery with Labels and Transportation, which has both reference layers turned on. Feedback: Have you ever seen a problem in the Esri World Imagery Map that you wanted to see fixed? You can use the Imagery Map Feedback web map to provide feedback on issues or errors that you see. The feedback will be reviewed by the ArcGIS Online team and considered for one of our updates. ArcGIS Desktop use: This service requires ArcGIS 9.3 or more recent. If you are using ArcGIS 9.2, use the Prime Imagery map service in your map to get the best free imagery available to you. Note that the Prime Imagery map service is in extended support and is no longer being updated. The World Imagery map service is not available as a globe service.

Most of the Mines in that area were developed later than that. Brisbane City Imagery is from 2003... acoffin (November 7, 2012) I want to use this base map (North America) in a printed map that will be published as a project fact sheet (noncommercial, quasi-academic publication). Can you tell me what the appropriate attribution should be for this product? Esri? i-cubed? MissJesie (November 4, 2012) what pherout said helps me now,thanks tomstonel947 (September 4, 2012) How do I find if there is archival imagery for a region? I am hoping to go back perhaps 10 years for a region in the upper great plains. pherout (August 21, 2012) Setting the data frame's extent to a clipped area of interest seems to help make working with these basemaps a lot more tolerable - Right click, data frame properties, data frame, clip options, clip to shape, specify shape, current visible extent. Took me a hot minute to figure that out. Hope it might help some others. Emergell (May 24, 2012) Use a higher spec computer, keep panning to a minimum, set bookmarks to avoid excessive panning, download an aerial instead kphaneuf (May 10, 2012) Why when I switch to layout view does the map get blurry? mahabal (February 7, 2012) just recently uploaded this layer to ArcGIS 9.3.1 but the image is just BLACK. tmmoc (January 18, 2012) If you do most of your editing in the layout view (if that's possible for your kind of work) it doesn't lag. Having these kinds of files open in the data view causes my computer to lag, so I do everything I can (editing attribute tables, drawing in property lines, etc.) from the layout view. nice2835 (December 27, 2011) I'd suggest that when you open it within arc-map 10. just zoom to one of your data layers, and it will load the images from there. margaretannsclass (November 28, 2011) And i just like pie chino-is@hotmail.com (September 28, 2011) I'm using an Intel Core 2 6700 at 2.66GHz with 2 G RAM ... it's not a very fast machine but I am on a university network in a university computer lab so I expect the problem is one of bandwidth. It lags but not so much that I can't keep productive momentum. snelsonbanff (September 20, 2011) That doesn't really make sense though - it's very fast when I use the same service in my FLEXviewer, but as soon as I drop the same service into ArcMap it's too slow to use. tbwester (September 16, 2011) They are interenet based, so you need a fast connection. snelsonbanff (September 14, 2011) Hmm, everytime I try to use these basemaps inside ArcMap 10 - it makes ArcMap so slow it's un-useeble.

NLCD2006 Is Product Description based primarily on the unsupervised dasslfication of Land.Ehc Data Downloads Themai Mapper+ (ETM+) circa 2006 satellite data. NLCD2006 also quantifies Legend land cover change between the years 2001 to 2006. The NLCD2006 land cover change product was generated by comparing statistics spectral characteristics of Landset imagery between 2001 and 2006, on an Individual References path/row basis, using protocols to identify and label change based on the trajectory from NLCD2001 products. It represents the first time this type of 30 meter resolution land cover Retrofit Land Cover Change change product has been produced for the conterminous United States. A formal accuracy Product Description assessment of the NLCD2006 land cover change product is planned for 2011. Data Downloads Generation of NLCD2006 products helped to identify some issues in the NLCD2001 land cover and percent developed imperviousness products only (there were no changes to the Legend NLCD2001 percent canopy). These issues were evaluated and corrected, necessitating a References reissue of NLCD2001 products (NLCD2001 Version 2.0) as part of the NLCD2006 release. A majority of the NLCD2001 updates occurred in coastal mapping zones where NLCD2001 was NLCD 1992 published prior to the completion of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Product Description (NOAA) Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) 2001 land cover products. NOAA C-CAP 2001 land cover has now been seamlessly integrated with NLCD2001 land cover for all Data Downloads coastal zones.

Description:
Abstract: The National Land Cover Database products are created through a cooperative project conducted by the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium. The MRLC Consortium is a partnership of federal agencies (www.mrlc.gov), consisting of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Previously, NLCD consisted of three major data releases based on a 10-year cycle. These include a circa 1992 conterminous U.S. land cover dataset with one thematic layer (NLCD 1992), a circa 2001 50-state/Puerto Rico updated U.S. land cover database (NLCD 2001) with three layers including thematic land cover, percent imperviousness, and percent tree canopy, and a 1992/2001 Land Cover Change Retrofit Product. With these national data layers, there is often a 5-year time lag between the image capture date and product release. In some areas, the land cover can undergo significant change during production time, resulting in products that may be perpetually out of date. To address these issues, this circa 2006 NLCD land cover product (NLCD 2006) was conceived to meet user community needs for more frequent land cover monitoring (moving to a 5-year cycle) and to reduce the production time between image capture and product release. NLCD 2006 is designed to provide the user both updated land cover data and additional information that can be used to identify the pattern, nature, and magnitude of changes occurring between 2001 and 2006 for the conterminous United States at medium spatial resolution. For NLCD 2006, there are 3 primary data products: 1) NLCD 2006 Land Cover map; 2) NLCD 2001/2006 Change Pixels labeled with the 2006 land cover class; and 3) NLCD 200.6 Percent Developed Imperviousness. Four additional data products were developed to provide supporting documentation and to provide information for land cover change analysis tasks: 4) NLCD 2001/2006 Percent Developed Imperviousness Change; 5) NLCD 2001/2006 Maximum Potential Change derived from the raw spectral change analysis; 6) NLCD 2001/2006 From-To Change pixels; and 7) NLCD 2006 Path/Row Index vector file showing the footprint of Landsat scene pairs used to derive 2001/2006 spectral change with change pair acquisition dates and scene identification numbers included in the attribute table. In addition to the 2006 data products listed in the paragraph above, two of the original release NLCD 2001 data products have been revised and reissued. Generation of NLCD 2006 data products helped to identify some update issues in the NLCD 2001 land cover and percent developed imperviousness data products. These issues were evaluated and corrected, necessitating a reissue of NLCD 2001 data products (NLCD 2001 Version 2.0) as part of the NLCD 2006 release. A majority of NLCD 2001 updates occur in coastal mapping zones where NLCD 2001 was published prior to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) 2001 land cover products. NOAA C-CAP 2001 land cover has now been seamlessly integrated with NLCD 2001 land cover for all coastal zones. NLCD 2001 percent developed imperviousness was also updated as part of this process. Land cover maps, derivatives and all associated documents are considered "provisional" until a formal accuracy assessment can be conducted. The NLCD 2006 is created on a path/row basis and mosaicked to create a seamless national product. Questions about the NLCD 2006 land cover product can be directed to the NLCD

Positional-Accuracy: HorizontalPositionalAccuracy: HorizontalPositional_AccuracyReport: N/A Vertical-PositionalAccuracy: VerticalPositional_AccuracyReport: N/A Lineage: Process-Step: ProcessDescription: Landsat image selection and preprocessing. For the change analysis, a two-date pair of Landsat scenes was selected for each path/row restricting temporal range to reduce the impact of seasonal and phenological variation. A pre-processing step was performed to convert the digital number to top of atmosphere reflectance using procedures similar to those established for the NLCD 2001 mapping effort (Homer et al., 2004). Reflectance derivatives, including a tasseled-cap transformation and a 3-ratio index, were generated for each scene to use in the modeling process as independent variables. Where present, clouds and cloud shadows were digitized for masking. NLCD 2006 Percent Developed Imperviousness (Final Product) and Percent Developed Imperviousness Change Analysis. Because the four NLCD developed classes are derived from a percent imperviousness mapping product, an overview of steps required to update the NLCD 2001 imperviousness to reflect urban growth captured in 2006 era Landsat imagery is provided here (Xian, et al., 2010). First, 2001 nighttime lights imagery from the NOAA Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) was imposed on the NLCD 2001 impervious surface product to exclude low density imperviousness outside urban and suburban centers so that only imperviousness in urban core areas would be used in the training dataset. Two training datasets, one having a relatively larger urban extent and one having a smaller extent, were produced through imposing two different thresholds on city light imagery. Second, each of the two training datasets combined with 2001 Landsat imagery was separately applied using a regression tree (RT) algorithm to build up RT models. Two sets of RT models were then used to estimate percent imperviousness and to produce two 2001 synthetic impervious surfaces. Similarly, the same two training datasets were used with 2006 Landsat imagery to create two sets of RT models that produce two 2006 synthetic impervious surfaces. Third, the 2001 and 2006 synthetic impervious surface pairs were compared using both 2001 impervious surface products to retain 2001 impervious surface area (ISA) in the unchanged areas. The 2006 DMSP nighttime lights imagery was then employed to ensure that non-imperviousness areas were not included and that new impervious surfaces emerged in the city light extent. After this step, two 2006 intermediate impervious surfaces were produced. Finally, the two intermediate products and 2001 imperviousness were compared to remove false estimates in non-urban areas and generate a 2006 impervious surface estimate. Imperviousness threshold values used to derive the NLCD developed classes are: (1) developed open space (imperviousness < 20%), (2) low-intensity developed (imperviousness from 20 - 49%), (3) medium intensity developed (imperviousness from 50 -79%), and (4) high-intensity developed (imperviousness > 79%). During this process, inconsistencies in the NLCD 2001 Percent Developed Imperviousness product were corrected with the new product, NLCD 2001 Percent Developed Imperviousness Version 2.0, included as part of the NLCD 2006 product release. Land Cover Change Analysis. For the NLCD 2006 Land Cover Update, a new change detection method, Multi-Index Integrated Change (MIIC), was developed to capture a full range of land cover disturbance and potential land cover change patterns for updating the National Land Cover Database (Jin, et al., In Preparation). Recognizing the potential complementary nature of multiple spectral indices in detection of different land cover changes, we integrated four indices into one model to more accurately detect true land cover changes between two time periods. Within the model, normalized burn ratio (NBR), change vector (CV, Xian, et al., 2009), relative change vector (RCV), and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) are calculated separately for the early date (circa 2001) and late date (circa 2006) scenes. The four pairs of indices for the two dates are differenced and then evaluated in a final model conditional statement that categorizes each pixel as either biomass increase, biomass decrease, or no change. Individual path/row raw results from this change analysis process are assembled into a seamless national product to form the NLCD 2001/2006 Maximum Potential Change map. The integrated change result is clumped and sieved to produce a refined change/no-change mask used below. NLCD 2006 Land Cover Classification. Land cover mapping protocols used during NLCD 2006 processing are similar to those used to label the NLCD 2001 product (Homer, et al., 2004), but applied on a path/row basis instead of multiple path/row MRLC zones (Xian, et al., 2009). Classification was achieved using decision tree modeling that employed a combination of Landsat imagery, reflectance derivatives, and ancillary data (independent variables) with training data points (dependent variable) collected from a refined version of the NLCD 2001 land cover product. Training points were randomly sampled and limited to those areas that were determined to be unchanged between 2001 and 2006 during the MIIC spectral change analysis process. Training data for pixels changed to developed land cover were not collected since the four classes in urban and sub-urban areas were mapped separately using a regression tree modeling method (described in the Imperviousness Change Analysis process steps above). Post classification modeling and hand-editing were used to further refine the decision tree output. Following classification, the 2006 land cover was masked with the change/no-change result (captured during the MIIC change analysis modeling) to extract a label for spectrally changed pixels. Labeled change pixels were then compared to the NLCD 2001 land cover base to exclude those pixels identified as spectral change, but classified with the same label as the corresponding 2001 pixel. NLCD 2006 percent developed impervious pixels, identified as changed, were extracted to NLCD developed class codes using NLCD 2001 legend thresholds for developed classes and added to the change pixel map. This intermediate change pixel product was generalized using the NLCD Smart Eliminate tool with the following minimum mapping units (mmu) applied: 1 acre (approximately 5 ETM+ 30 m pixel patch) for developed classes (class codes 21, 22, 23, and 24); 7.12 acres (approximately 32 ETM+ pixel patch) for agricultural classes (class codes 81 and 82); and 2.67 acres (approximately 12 ETM+ pixel patch) for all other classes (class codes 11, 12, 31, 41, 42, 43, 52, 71, 90, and 95). The smart eliminate aggregation program subsumes pixels from the single pixel level to the mmu pixel patch using a queens algorithm at doubling intervals. The algorithm consults a weighting matrix to guide merging of cover types by similarity, resulting in a product that preserves land cover logic as much as possible. During the NLCD
FHR-COMBINED Page 137 of 231 2006 analysis and modeling process, inconsistencies in the NLCD 2001 Land cover product were corrected with the new product, NLCD 2001 Land Cover Version 2.0, included as part of the NLCD 2006 product release. NLCD 2006 Land Cover (Final Product). Additional processing steps were designed to create the final NLCD 2006 land cover map. Individual path/row change pixel results were assembled to form an intermediate seamless national product. This seamless change pixel map was reviewed and edited to remove regional inconsistencies. Refined NLCD 2006 change pixels were then combined with the re-issued NLCD 2001 Land Cover Version 2.0, and the resulting image was smart-eliminated to a 5-pixel mmu. This final step eliminated single pixels and patches less than 5 pixels in extent that appeared as a result of combining the separate images. NLCD 2006 Change Pixels (Final Product). A comparison of the NLCD 2001 re-issued base and the NLCD 2006 Land Cover was necessary to extract a final version of the NLCD 2006 Change Pixels. In a model, pixels that were labeled with the same land cover class code were removed and only those pixels that did not agree in the two classifications were retained as final NLCD 2006 Change Pixels. NLCD 2001/2006 Percent Developed Imperviousness Change (Supplementary Raster Layer). The NLCD 2001 Percent Developed Imperviousness Version 2.0 and the NLCD 2006 Percent Developed Imperviousness were compared in a model to provide the user community with a layer that highlights imperviousness change between 2001 and 2006. NLCD 2006 Maximum Potential Spectral Change (Supplementary Raster Layer). A raster layer containing all pixels identified in the raw change detection process and additional pixels identified as changed in NOAA C-CAP 2001-2006 change products. Raw change includes areas of biomass increase (value 1) and biomass decrease (value 2) with background (127) and clouds (value 250) identified separately. Only a portion of these pixels were ultimately selected as real change during our final protocols. This product was assembled from individual path/row MIIC raw change results. NLCD 2006 From-To Change Pixels (Supplementary Raster Layer). Although similar to the NLCD 2006 change pixel map, the from-to change pixel image was derived from a direct comparison between the re-issued seamless NLCD 2001 Land Cover Version 2.0 Map and the seamless NLCD 2006 Land Cover Map. An index value for each possible change combination was assigned using a from-to change matrix with sequentially numbered cells (see matrix and index values in entity and attribute section). Pixels are labeled with an index value created from a matrix of every possible change combination (see entity and attribute information for details). NLCD 2006 Path/Row Index (Supplementary Vector Layer). To create seamless national layers from individually processed path/rows required assembly of components. The path/row index identifies each Landsat scene pair footprint and includes a Landsat acquisition date attribute and scene identification number attribute for each scene pair used during the NLCD 2006 change analysis and land cover modeling process. The mosaic was made using a model to code each footprint with the appropriate path/row value using a <path>0<row> scheme. For example, all pixels in the footprint for path 29/row 30 would be value 29030 in the path/row index vector file.

FHR-COMBINED Page 191 of 231 A AREVA Flood Hazard Re-evaluation - Combined Events Flood Analysis for R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant CEDAS VERSION 4.03 Program Capability / Intended Use The CEDAS v.4.03 computer program was originally developed by the Army Corp of Engineers to accompany the Coastal Engineering Manual. CEDAS v.4.03 is a comprehensive collection of coastal engineering software. Veri-Tech, Inc. purchased the software suite and enhanced the existing models with windows-based interface with graphics. The module of CEDAS used for the calculations of wave prediction, setup, and runup at Ginna is ACES. ACES is an interactive computer based design and analysis system in the field of coastal engineering containing six functional areas. These functional areas include wave prediction, wave theory, wave transformation, structural design, wave runup, and littoral processes. Purpose The purpose of this Computer Program Certification is to document that CEDAS v.4.03 is an acceptable computer software program for its intended use in calculating wave prediction, setup, and runup for Flood Hazard Re-evaluation Project sites, in accordance with AREVA's Controlled Document No.0402-01 (Rev.43, dated September 2012). The certification methodology, documentation and results of CEDAS v.4.03 are presented below. Methodology To perform the certification of wave prediction and runup, a computer analysis was performed using CEDAS v.4.03 for benchmark calculations presented in the Automated Coastal Engineering System User's Guide (Reference 1). The output wave predictions and wave runup of the CEDAS v.4.03 computer analysis are then compared to the results of the benchmark CEDAS v.4.03 calculations run on a GZA workstation. For wave setup, CEDAS v.4.03 results were compared to those results from an example calculation as part of the USACE Coastal Engineering Manual Chapter 4, Part II (Reference 3). This certification methodology is consistent with AREVA Controlled Document Nos.0402-01 (Rev.43, dated September 2012) and 0902-30 (Rev.6, dated September 2012). Upon achieving a good agreement between the calculated results and the benchmark calculation, the accuracy of the software is verified and validated. Inputs The example calculation selected for the software certification is consistent with the intended use for Flood Hazard Re-evaluation Projects. Inputs to CEDAS v.4.03 for calculating wave prediction are as follows:

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Results from the USACE Coastal Engineering Manual Figure 4: Results from the USACE Coastal Engineering Manual EM-1110-2-1100 Part II (Change 1) 31 July 2003 EXAMPLE PROBLEM 11-4-2 FIND: Setup across the surf zone. GIVEN: A plane beach having a I on 100 slope, and normally incident waves with decpwatcr height of 2 m and period of 10sec (see Example Problem 1]-4-1). SOLUTION: The Incipient breaker height and depth were determined in Example Problem 11-4-I as 2.7 m and 3.2 m, respectively. The breaker index is 0.84, based on Equation 11-4-5. Setdown at the breaker point is determined from Equation 11-4-21. At breaking, Equation 11-4-21 simplifies t1 2

Setup may be calculated anywhere in the surf zone from the relation r" = ;-F+ (di/dx)(xb - x), where x. is the surf zone width and x = 0 at the shoreline (x is positive offshore).

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Comparison of Results The comparison between CEDAS-ACES v.4.03 and benchmark calculations from Reference 1 are presented in Table 3 below. Table 3: Summary of Calculated Results Calculation Output CEDAS USACE ACES User's Percent v.4.03 CEM Ch.4 Manual Difference Part II benchmark Wave Wave Height 4.74 ft - 4.74 ft 0.0% Prediction Wave Period 4.65 sec - 4.65 sec 0.0% Wave Runup Runup 21.366 ft - 21.366 ft 0.0% Wave Setup Max setup .66 m .65 m -_1.5% The results indicate no difference of the computed runup and wave prediction by CEDAS-ACES from the benchmark calculation results in Reference 1. Results for wave setup indicated a minor (less than 2%) error compared to the example calculation provided in Reference 3. The percent difference is insignificant and believed to be a result of:
- 1. More input parameters were used by the software than the hand calculation using Reference 3.
- 2. Inherent variability in the hand calculation (i.e. rounding error).
Therefore, CEDAS v.4.03 is determined to be acceptably accurate for its intended use for wave prediction, setup, and runup at GGNS.
