UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 January 7, 2016 Mr. Kenneth A. Westlake Chief, NEPA Implementation Section US EPA - Region 5 77 West Jackson Blvd Chicago, IL 60604-3590
SUBJECT:
RESPONSE TO ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY COMMENTS REGARDING THE FINAL PLANT-SPECIFIC SUPPLEMENT 55 TO THE GENERIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR LICENSE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR PLANTS FOR BRAIDWOOD STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 (TAC NOS. MF1832 AND MF1833)
Dear Mr. Westlake:
On December 21, 2015, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 5, provided comments on the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC) final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) pertaining to the license renewal of Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2 (NRC Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)
Accession No. ML16005A332 and ML15314A814, respectively).
In that letter, the EPA stated that its only outstanding recommendations relate to draft SEIS Comment 013-8 (Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Climate Change) and Comment 013-09 (Air Quality). The EPAs recommendations ask the NRC to encourage the applicant to identify opportunities to minimize greenhouse gas emissions associated with refurbishment activities and overall facility operations and maintenance, and to encourage the applicant to use certain practices for all applicable activities powered by diesel fuel.
The EPA stated that it understands that the NRC cannot impose mitigation measures or standards outside the scope of nuclear safety and security, and that it is not asking NRC to impose measures or standards related to air emissions. Rather, the EPA recommended that the NRC commit to share and promote its recommendations with the applicant in order to facilitate the spread of best practices for protecting human health and the environment.
The NRC has provided a copy of the EPAs recommendations to the applicant in Appendix A of the final SEIS and the applicant is aware of its responsibility to comply with applicable Federal, State, and local permit requirements.
Thank you for your comments. If further information is required, please contact Mr. Richard Baum, Senior Project Manager, by telephone at 301-415-0018 or by e-mail at Richard.Baum@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
