HOLZ I, Howard B. Holz, being duly sworn, dispose and state:
g:
By whom are you employed, and describe the work you perform?
A:
I am employed by the Auxiliary Systems Branch, Division of Systems Integration, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
A copy of my professional qualifications is attached to this affidavit.
g:
Have you read "Applicants'otion for Summary Disposition of Contention 16 (Cooling Tower Discharge)", filed October 27,
- 1980, and the documents attached
- thereto, including the affidavit of Walter 8.
Rhoades?
A:
Yes.
g:
Would you describe the scope of the subject matter addressed in your affidavit?
A:
I have been asked to identify the sources of water for the cooling towers at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station.
g:
What are those sources?
A:
The sources of water from the cooling towers are (1) the return flow from the circulating water (condenser),
{2) the return flow from the service water system, and (3) the make-up water to the tower itself.
During normal plant operating conditions the first two sources of water are protected by either physical barriers or operating pressures which exceed the pressure(s) in the system(s) being cooled.
The third source of water is from the Susquehanna River.
Consequently, these sources of water are non-radioactive and there is no radioactivity released from the cooling towers in normal operation.
I hereby certify that the above statements are true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
