  • The NPDES Permit for the Consumers Energy Company Palisades Nuclear Plant expires October 1, 1998. In accordance with Rule 323.2151 of Act 451, Part 31 and in response to the January 28, 1998 notification letter from Mr Kevin Cook (MDEQ Permits Section), an application for NPDES Permit renewal has been completed and is attached as Attachment 1. Pursuant to Mr Cook's directive, every applicable item of the 1/98 revised State of Michigan NPDES Permit Application has been completed.

The wastewater from Outfall 001 and internal Outfalls OOA-OOD, and OOF has been well characterized through the duration of the present and previous NPDES Permits . . Outfall 001 consists principally of noncontact cooling water and combined minimal volumes of miscellaneous low volume wastestreams. Outfall 001 does not receive a pollutant loading as a result of plant operations for a number of parameters for which permit application reporting is requested.

Where there is minor loading, data show that it is minimal, if even detectable.

Parameter Waiver Request The Company requests the following waivers from certain data reporting requirements of Sectfon III B Item 6 of the application under provision Section 122.53 (d)(7)(i)(B), Subpart D, Part 122 of the Federal Regulations:

  • 1. For Outfall 001, a waiver is requested from reporting data for the parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c) TDC, (e) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), and (f) Total Suspended Solids.

00398-19.JAC

  • Internal Outfalls OOA, OOB, &OOC -

Request to Elfminate Monitoring and Reporting The Company requests elimination of monitoring and reporting at internal Outfalls ODA, DOB, and DOC. Outfall ODA, OOB, and OOC are principally noncontact cooling water providing the major source of water to Outfall 001 where, associated monitoring and reporting is provided. The effluent from these three internal outfalls have been well characterized through the NPDES permitting term of the Plant. Data provided under previous permits have established average and maximum flows from each particular outfall. This request will reduce the monitoring and reporting administrative burdens on both the Plant and *the Department.

Water Treatment Additives Current A listing of water treatment additives used at the Palisades Plant is presented in Attachment 2. Most of the additives listed have been previously reviewed and approved by the Department through past permit development processes. Current usage and discharge rates of these additives remain the same as previously reviewed. Current usage and discharge rates of these

  • additives also remain the same as previously reviewed. However, several approved additive product names have changed to reflect a recent merger between product/chemical companies. The additives effected by the merger and the new name changes are identified on the listing of water treatment additives.

During this permit renewal process, the Palisades Plant requests the approval to use two new water treatment additives, Alconox Detergent 8 and Betz Spectrus NXllOO.

Alconox Detergent 8 is a radiological decontaminate agent to be used in the reactor cavity to decontaminate the reactor cavity. The BetzDearborn Spectrus NXllOO is a biofouling control agent to be used in the radwaste filter tank to effectively control, clean, and to remove odors within the dirty radwaste t~nk. The* Plant would like to be able to utilize the. Alconox Detergent 8 product during the next scheduled outage starting April 24, 1998. The usage of Alconox Detergent 8 would save the Plant up to $200,000 in cost if it could be used during the outage this year. Therefore, the Plant would appreciate it if the Department would expedite the approval for use of the Alconox Detergent 8 by providing it to the Company as soon as possible.

Attachment 3 provides detailed process descriptions on each additive.

Included in Attachment 3 are the associated Material Safety Data Sheets and

  • aquatic toxicity data for each additive .

We understand that potential effluent limits can be determined based upon provided aquatic toxicity data for the two new additives requested above.

00398-19.JAC

  • Therefore, no potential effluent quality sampling was performed or is provided.

Outfall 001 Flow Increase - 323.1098 Antidegradation Demonstration The Palisades Nuclear Plant is requesting an increase in use of water

. ultimately increasing the authorized discharge flow volumes at internal Outfalls OOA and 008, and most importantly Outfall 001 in order to remain a competitive electric genera~ion facility which is being forced by future deregulation.

Detailed information on the increase request is provided as Attachment A attached in the back of the permit application. Attachment A is the supplementary information provided in response of the antid~gradation item in the Permit Application,.Section I, 8. - "Reissuance of Permit" description section.

The Company feels that antidegradation only applies when an increase use results when an increase in loadings of pollutants occur. Essentially, increasing flow is "increased use", however, no increase in pollutant loadings will occur as a result of the Palisades Plant increase. In fact, pollutant loadings associated with the operation of the Palisades Plant will be reduced

  • because of the water volume increase. The Company has evaluated the influence of the increase on the controlled parameters and has found that the Plant can continue to remain in compliance with current parameter limits applied at Outfall 001 without an increase in loadings. Therefore, the Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, Part 31, Part 4, Rule 1098 antidegradation provisions should not apply in this case.

However, the Plant will work with the Department in the future if circumstances arise where the Plant sees that the currently approved water treatment additives are not as effective due to the increase in flow.

However, at this time, no modifications to the current treatment approvals are being considered.

Outfall OOE Elimination S~nce the last NPDES Permit issuance in 1994, the Palisades Plant has eliminated internal Outfall OOE, the neutralizer tank wastewater outfall. The neutralizer tank was removed from service during 1997 due to lack of use since the Plant no longer performs inhouse acid/caustic regeneration of the demineralizer system. Instead, the Plant contracts or leases trailers which contain cation, anion, and mixed bed resin vessels to supply high purity demineralized water for the Plant. When the trailer is spent, it is contracted offsite and replaced with a new one. All piping feeding and exiting the neutralizer tank have been capped. All associated equipment has

  • been removed from service also .

The elimination of the outfall or operational change is exempt from Part IIA2 "Change of Conditions notification requirements because it does not result in 11 a new, different, or increased discharge of pollutants, nor will it result in 00398-19.JAC

  • the exceedance of the current effluent limitations specified in the permit.

Therefore, a separate written notification beyond this letter will not be provided.

Storm Water Summary The Palisades Plant has a NPDES General Permit for Storm Water MIROOOOOO, Certificate of Coverage MIR70P002 issued November 10, 1994 and expiring January 31, 1999.

There are five storm water discharges at the Palisades Plant. Storm Water (SW) discharges SW-2, SW-3 and SW-5 discharge directly to the shoreline of Lake Michigan. SW-4 discharges to Lake Michigan where it is observed and assessed daily recording total flow when the source (Groundwater Remediation Unit) authorized under the NPDES Permit MI0049131 is in operation. SW-6 discharges directly to the mixing basin prior to dischargin*g at Outfall 001 to Lake Michigan.

The Palisades Plant is in compliance with the Certificate of Coverage storm water operator, storm water pollution prevention plan development, nonstructural and structural control implementation within the associated required time frames. Attachment 4 provides submittals to the Department

  • verifying compliance with the dates and corresponding requirements.

Mark-Up Copy of The Current NPDES Permit As Attachment 5, the current Palisades NPDES permit is marked-up to include preliminary changes made for the renewed NPDES permit. We thought this may be helpful in defining the areas in the permit were operational changes have been made or will be made at the Plant, to better clarify the requests mentioned above, in the permit application, and the attached supplementary information.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at (517) 788-1469. We are looking forward to working with the Department on the Palisades Plant permit renewal process.

10. TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA Intake In addition to the above information and in accordance with Rule 1211 of the Part 8 Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix}, for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the, DEQ has determined that a substance is or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality (PEQ) of the discharge.

The DEQ will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 10 representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative daily discharge concentrations and the average PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 30-day average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 10 effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be .determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 of Rule 1211, (see page 8 in the appendix). List both detectable and nondetectable results. Where a result is nondetectable indicate the detection level.

Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL. Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (1 O) analytical results.

If it is determined that the toxic substance concentration has a reasonable potential to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value, then a WQBEL for that substance will be incorporated into the NPDES permit Samples (ug/I)

TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA CTBlowdown In addition to the above information and in accordance with Rule 1211 of the Part 8 Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix), for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the DEC has determined that a substance is or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality (PEC) of the discharge.

The DEC will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 10 representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEC shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative daily discharge concentrations and the average PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 3Ck:lay average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 10 effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 ~f Rule 1211, (see page 8 in the appendix). List both detectable and nondetectable results. Where a result is nondetectable indicate the detection level.

Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL. Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (10) analytical results.

10. TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA Radwaste In addition to the above information and in accordance With Rule 1211 of the Part B Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix), for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the DEQ has determined that a substance is.or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality.(PEQ) of the discharge.

The OEQ will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance Will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 1O representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative daily discharge concentrations and the average PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 3o-day average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 1o effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 of Rule 1211, (see page Bin the appendix). List both detectable and nondetectable results. Where a result is n!)ndetectable indicate the detection level Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value Will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (10) analytical results.

If it is determined that the toxic substance concentration has a reasonable potential to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value, then a WQBEL for that substance will be incorporated into the NPDES permit.

10. TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA South CT Overflow In addition to the above information and in accordance with Rule 1211 of the Part 8 Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix), for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the DEQ has determined that a substance is or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality (PEQ) of the discharge.

The DEQ will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 10 representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative daily discharge concentrations and the average PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 3Ck:lay average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 1o effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 of Rule 1211, (see page 8 in the appendix). List both detectable and nondetectable results. Where a result is nondetectable indicate the detection level.

Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality. value will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL. Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (10) analytical results.

If it is determined that the toxic substance concentration has a reasonable potential to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value, then a WQBEL for that substance will be incorporated into the NPDES permit.

10. TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA North CT Overflow In addition to the above information and in accordance with Rule 1211 of the Part 8 Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix), for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the DEQ has determined that a substance is or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality (PEQ) of the discharge.

The DEQ will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 10 representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative dally discharge concentrations and the average PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 3()-day average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 10 effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 of Rule 1211, (see page 8 in the appendix). List both detectable and nondetectable results. Where a result is nondetectable indicate the detection level.

Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quarrty value will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (10) analytical results.

If it is determined that the toxic substance concentration has a reasonable potential to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value, then a WQBEL for that substance will be incorporated into the NPDES permil Samples (ug/I)

10. TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA Tmbine Sump In addition to the above information and in accordance with Rule 1211 of the Part 8 Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix), for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the DEQ has determined that a substance is or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality (PEQ) of the discharge.

The DEQ will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 1O representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative daily discharge concentrations and the average PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 3o-day average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 10 effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 of Rule 1211, (see page 8 in the appendix). List both detectable and nondeteclable results. Where a result is nondetectable indicate the detection level.

Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL. Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (10) analytical results.

10. TOXIC POLLUTANT REASONABLE POTENTIAL EFFLUENT DATA Mixing Basin In addition to the above information and in accordance with Rule 1211 of the Part 8 Rules (see pages 7-10 in the appendix), for each toxic substance which is or may be discharged from the facility, the applicant must provide individual sample data to determine if Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) are necessary.

WQBELs for toxic pollutants are incorporated into an NPDES permit when the DEQ has determined that a substance is or may be discharged into the waters of the state at a level that has a reasonable potential to exceed the substance's water quality value. The determination is made by developing a preliminary effluent limit (PEL) and comparing it to the potential effluent quality (PEQ) of the discharge.

The DEQ will determine the PELs for every toxic substance the permittee reports as being present in their discharge. The PEQ for each toxic substance will be developed using individual sample results provided by the permittee.

If the permittee provides at least 1O representative facility-specific effluent samples that are greater than the detection limit, the maximum PEQ shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative daily discharge concentrations and the average PEO shall equal the upper 95th percentile of all the representative 3Q-day average concentrations. Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the average or maximum PEQ exceeds any of the chronic or acute PELs, respectively.

If the permittee is unable to provide 1O effluent samples that are greater than the detection level, the PEQ shall be determined by identifying the total number of representative effluent samples, both detectable and nondetectable, and multiplying the maximum reported value by a multiplying factor found in Table 3 of Rule 1211, (see page 6 in the appendix). List both delectable and nondetectable results. Where a result is nondetectable indicate the detection level.

Reasonable potential for the discharge of a toxic substance to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value will be considered to exist if the PEQ for a pollutant exceeds its PEL. Attach additional sheets where there are more than ten (1 O) analytical results.

If it is determined that the toxic substance concentration has a reasonable potential to cause or contribute to an excursion above any water quality value, then a WQBEL for that substance will be incorporated into the NPDES permil Samples (ug/I)

Toxic Pollutant 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Are any of the above listed toxic pollutants present in the facility's supply water? D No, Continue to next question.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT, NPDES PERMIT APPLICATION

  • Section I, 8 - Reissuance of Permit Antidegradation Rule 1098- Increased Discharge Volume Purpose for the Increase The Consumers Energy Company, Palisades Nuclear Plant is requesting an increase in the use and authorized discharge flow volume for Outfall 001 in order to remain competitive in energy generation forced by deregulation.

The Plant is requesting to increase the volume of the intake dilution water pumps from a maximum design flow of 60,000 gpm to a maximum design flow of 120,000 gpm. By doubling the current dilution water make-up flow, an additional 5 MW output of electricity can be generated. This will allow the Palisades Nuclear Plant to operate more competitively in the market of generating electricity.

Initially, the project is estimated to cost the Company $1.5 - 2.2 million dollars. But, this project is a necessary benefit to the Palisades Plant in order for it to remain competitive in the future.

Environmental Impact

  • The higher make-up water flow will lower the concentration discharge of pollutants. The increa~e in dilution water will essentially reduce concnetrqtions of existing loadings associated with the operation of the Plant. However, as shown in Attachment C that follows and also in Section III, B 6., Wastewater Characteristics results for Outfall 001, existing Outfall 001 pollutant loadings are already below water quality standards, and most are below detection supporting the waiver request for applicable parameters.

Impact on Outfall 001 Parameters of Concern The authorized discharge flow at Outfall 001 will increase from a maximum design flow of 135.2 MGD to 234.5 MGD.

We anticipate that the increased flow will be in compliance with already existing Total Residual Oxidant daily maximum limits associated with continuous or intermittent chlorination, or during bromine application. The previously approved sodium hypochlorite detailed treatment information may be altered but, details are not yet available. For the present time, the Plant will continue to chlorinate according to the historical treatment approval.

The Plant will work with the Department if it is discovered that effective chlorination treatment cannot be attained as currently approved.

' The Plant will address the Betz Clamtrol CT-2 and 4 applications in the same manner. If the currently approved application of treatment has to be revised to reflect effectiveness then, the Plant will work with the Department to

    • . ensure that effective treatment is provided without exceeding associated

., permit limits while continuing protecting the aquatic life in the receiving water body.

Temperature - Heat Addition

    • The Plant staff has investigated the temperature loadings associated with the dilution water increase using 1996-97 current discharge flows, intake and discharge temperatures, and heat addition. Investigation shows that the increase in flow volume will not cause an exceedance of the current heat addition (BTU/Hr) NPDES Permit limit. Based on lake intake temperatures, the Plant can continue to operate under the existing Heat Addition BTU/Hour daily maximum limit of 21,000 MBTU/Hr.

The higher flow will reduce temperature in the discharge. The cooling towers will continue to be utilized and adjusted to accommodate the increased flow.

Actually, the Plant anticipates a reduction in discharge temperature in the 1-5 degree range. These temperature reductions will mitigate potential impacts to the aquatic environment.

Rule 1098 - Antideqradation Exemption Based on the information provided above, the Consumers Energy Company, Palisades Nuclear Plant anticipates an increase in the flows at intake 000 and at discharge Outfall 001 to Lake Michigan. However, the Plant does not expect any increase in pollutant loadings (nonBCC or BCC associated). As a result of the increase in flow, the existing uses and water quality of Lake Michigan will remain protected.

  • The Company feels the increase applies to several antidegradation exemptions
  • stated by the following and do not constitute a lowering of water quality:

Rule 1098 (7)(d)

. Lake Michigan is not a listed designated Outstanding State Resource Water, Discharges of pollutant quantities from the intake water for the Palisades Nuclear Plant are not a lowering of water quality because the intake and the discharge are on the same body of water, Lake Michigan, (i) There will be no increased loadings of nonBCC's (heat) within the authbrized levels of a limit in the existing NPDES permit, (8)(a)(i) The increased discharge will remain within the existing processes that are currently covered under the existing applicable control document such as a normal operational variability (including cooling tower operation),

(iv) The increased discharge will result in an increase in electric MW generation. However, the process will not change or increase and continue to remain as described under the current controlled document .

Based on the information above, the Company requests the approval to increase the Intake 000 and Outfall 001 water flows accordingly without the need to develop and provide an antidegradation demonstration.

Chronic Toxicity Report of 10/22/96

Dear Mr~ Dehn:

Enclosed for your records is the report from the chronic toxicity samples which were collected at your plant on October 22-29, 1996. The report found no problems at your facility during the

  • days of the sampling. Therefore, no reply is necessary.

Congratulations on the good report, and thank you very much for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

  • SURFACE WATER QUALITY DIVISION DECEMBER 1996 STAFF REPORT CHRONIC TOXICITY ASSESSMENT OF CPCO-PALISADES POWERPLT OUTFALLOOlEFFLUENT COVERT, MICHIGAN OCTOBER 22-29, 1996 NPDES PERMIT NO. MI0001457 Staff of the Great Lakes and Environmental Assessment Section (GLEAS) performed a Ceriodaphnia dubia chronic toxicity test on grab samples of the CPCO-Palisades Pit outfall 00 l effluent from Oct0ber 22-29, 1996. The facility was operating normally when the samples were collected.

Toxicity testing was performed according to GLEAS Procedure #54 (procedure available upon request).

The facility does chlorinate the effluent. However, the facility was not chlorinating at the time of sample collection. Therefore, dechlorination was not necessary.

The facility discharges cooling tower blow down, non-contact cooling water, and treated miscellaneous low volume wastewater consisting of steam generator blowdown, demineralizer backwash and regeneration waste, reverse osmosi:; filter backwash, turbine sump drainage, floor drainage, laboratory waste, radwaste wastewater to Lake Michigan (authorized discharge 135.2 mgd). The receiving water concentration (RWC) of the effluent is 100% effluent. *

SUMMARY

1. Water quality parameters met minimum test a~ceptability criteria (data available upon request),

except on day 3, when temperatures fell slightly below recommended test temperatures (25°+/-1°).

However, we do not believe this had any impact on the test.

2. The effluent was not acutely or chronically toxic to Ceriodaphnia dubia (Table 1).
3. Based on the results of this study, the effluent was meeting the aquatic toxicity-related requirements of Rules 82 and 57 of the Michigan Water Quality Standards.

BetzDearborn World Class Technology (WCT) Product Conversion

Dear Enc:

As we have discussed in the past, BetzDearbom will be changing the names of the products used at Palisades Nuclear so that they coincide with our WCT product line. Fortunately, all of the products currently in use at Palisades have an identical WCT product and, therefore, only the name will change .

Betz

Dearbom would like to make this transition painless,

so we have notified the Michigan DEQ that our customers will be informing the state about these changes over the next few months. For your information, I have attached a copy of the letter that was sent to Mr. Russel J. Harding, Director MDEQ, discussing the conversion process. In addition, I have attached a sample letter that you may decide to use or alter in order to inform the state about the product name changes.

The list that follows notes products that are in use at Palisades and the WCT product name that corresponds to each. I have also attached the Material Safety Data Sheets for each of the WCT products for your files and if you need to forward them to the state for any reason.

(

Hydrazine is rapidly absorbed through the skin and is highly toxic by \__

this route which is dependent on exposed skin surface area and concentration of the solution. Exposure to large areas of the skin may lead to a significant dose being absorbed causing systemic toxicity similar to the effects described for inhalation exposure. Hydrazine can produce moderate to severe irritation. Dermatitis may also occur.

CHRONIC:

Repeated exposure can cause an allergic reaction resulting in dermatitis and a characteristic rash. Other effects would be similar to those described under chronic inhalation exposure.

EYE Exposure can cause moderate to severe irritation consisting of inflammation, swelling, redness and discharge. Temporary blindness can occur.

INGESTION ACUTE:

Toxic by ingestion. Ingestion may cause moderate to severe irritation of the GI tract and may also cause gastrointestinal discomfort with any or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, lethargy and diarrhea. The other effects would be similar as stated under inhalation exposure.

CHRONIC:

Inflammation to the gastrointestinal tract can occur. Other effects would be similar as stated under inhalation exposure. Chronic ingestion of hydrazine has caused cancer in laboratory animals.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:

Diseases of the liver, kidneys and blood, as well as asthma, cardiovascular disease, and nervous system disorders.

INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER CHEMICALS WHICH ENHANCE TOXICITY:

None known or reported ANIMAL TOXICOLOGY ACUTE TOXICITY:

Irritation: Irritant to skin and eyes ACUTE TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY:

Damage to lungs, liver, kidneys, blood and central nervous system *

  • PAGE 6 OF 12 CPE134000

Olin CHRONIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY:

Repeated exposure to hydrazine has produced damage to the lungs, liver, kidneys, blood and nervous system. Cancer has also been observed in laboratory animals.

REPRODUCTIVE AND DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY:

High concentrations of hydrazine have produced embryolethality and fetal malformations to the offspring of animals exposed during pregnancy. These findings were only observed at concentrations that cause significant maternal toxicity. Under industrial use conditions where exposures are kept at or below the recommended occupational exposure standards, exposure to this product should not pose a reproductive or developmental toxicity hazard.

Respiratory Protection: A NIOSH1MSHA approved air-purifying respirator equipped with acid gas/fume, dust, mist cartridges for concentrations up to 10 mg/m3. An air-supplied respirator if concentrations are higher or unknown.

Skin Protection: Impervious (I.e., neoprene, PVC) gloves, coveralls, boots and/or other acid resistant protective clothing.

Eye Protection: Tight-fitting chemical goggles and face shield.

Other Personal Protective Equipment: Where there is a danger at spilling or splashing, acid resistant aorons or suits should be worn. Trouser legs should be worn outside (not tucked in) rubber boots.

Safety showers and eyewash fountains should be Installed In storage and handling areas.

Handling Procedures and Equipment: Carbon steel or stainless steel materials are suitable for use for acid concentrations equal to or greater than 93o/o. However, the effect of lower concentrations on the materials .of construction can be very complex, Contact product supplier for specific recommendaUons when handling sulfuric acid at strengths less than n%.

Storage Temperature: Store above freezing point (Section 2). Elevated temperatures will increase the corrosion rate of most metals.

Storage Requirements: Store packaged acid in a dry, well-ventilated location away from combustibles, oxidizers, bases, or metallic powders. Storage tanks should be protected from water ingress, be well ventilated, and maintained structurally in a safe and rellable condition.

  • Other Precautions: Keep away from Ignition sources. Sulfuric acid will attack some forms of plastics and coatings. Always add acid to water - not water to acid. If kept in upper floors of building, floors snould be acid proof with drains to a recovery tank.
7. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION DATA Steps to be taken In the event of a splll or leak: Remove all ignition sources. Ventilate area. Stop or reduce leak if safe to do so. Dike with Inert material (sand, earth, etc.). Collect into containers for reclaim or disposal.

PALISADES PLANT NPDES PERMIT RENEWAL PROCESS REQUEST FOR USE OF TWO ADDITIONAL CHEMICAL TREATMENT ADDITIVES Detailed Description of Each Chemical and Usage

1) Alconox Detergent 8 Alconox Detergent 8 will be used at the Palisades Plant to decontaminate radioactivity in the reactor cavity. The amount to be used to decontaminate the cavity is expected to not exceed 4 gallons total once per year. Most other nuclear plants typically use 2-3 gallons where, each solution of product made is between a 385 ml to 500 ml per gallon. Once fed into the system, it will combine with approximately 90,000 gallons of water which will process through the radwaste system. The remaining distillate will be collected in Tank T-91 for eventual discharge to Outfall OOD. See Permit Application, SeGtion I, Exhibit I-11 Flow Diagram for the flow process.

Positive Use:

  • The positive use of the Alconox Detergent 8 product versus other decontamination agents is:
1) A smaller dosage of the Alconox product will be used,
2) It will save dollars than most typical applications of other agents,
3) Most importantly, the Alconox product does not leave behind any

- film or residual like most other decontamination agents. Therefore, additional rinsing with demineralizer water is not necessary, decreasing radiation exposure to plant workers.

The use of this product should also reduce the amount of water being transferred to the radwaste evaporator and subsequently to the radwaste Tank T-91. This should relate to a reduction in volume of water discharged from Outfall D.

If this product is permitted for an upcoming use in an outage scheduled for April 24, 1998, it will save the Plant $220,000.00 in reduced dosage cost and man hours. Therefore, expediting the ap~roval for usage of this product would be greatly appreciated.

2) BetzDearborn Spectrus NXllOO
  • BetzDearborn Spectrus NXllOO is a biofouling control agent to be used in the radwaste filter to effectively clean and remove odors within 00398-19.JAC
  • the filter*F-100. The radwaste tank (T-91) accepts several types of miscellaneous low volume wastes such as floor drain waste.

Approximately 100 mls bf the Spectrus NXllOO will be added to the radwaste system weekly, or as needed. It will be processed through the radwaste system initially mixing with 3,000 gallons of radwaste water and then pumped into a 20,000 gallon storage tank. From there, it is eventually processed to Tank T-91 where it is stored and eventually batch released with the radwaste wastestream from Outfall OOD.

Biodemand is expected to use all of the application utilizing dilution and evaporation in the initial stages of the process. Prior to reaching the radwaste Tank T-91, the expected radwaste concentration not based on biodemand is expected to be 200 ppm at Outfall OOD but, this expected concentration is extreme and does not include additional mixing with 40,000-75,000 gallons of water while awaiting batch release in Tank T-91. The expected discharge concentration for one treatment of Spectrus NXllOO at Outfall OOD prior to discharging to the mixing basin is expected to be zero based on demand and mixing.

The Plant will stage treatment applications not to exceed a feed rate of 100 mls per treatment in order to determine an effective treatment while demonstrating that the expected Spectrus NXllOO discharge concentration at Outfall 001 should be zero .

PRELIMINARY COMMENTS Comment No Page Question/Comment 1 Page 2 of 17 The Company is requesting an increase in the authorized discharge water volume at Part I, A 1 Outfall 001 to Lake Michigan (bases provided in the Permit Application). If the Mixing Basin Discharge Company is successful in obtaining the increase in flow at Outfall 001, the discharge Language Description flow volume should be revised from 135.2 MGD to 234.5 MGD to reflect the increase.

Revise the authorized discharge flow language to reflect the increase as ".234.5 MGD".

2 Source Description Add "an unspecified amount of storm water" to the source description of 'Outfall OCU, Mixing Basin Discharge. There is point source contribution of storm water to the mixing basin. These storm water point sources are regulated according to Phase I Federal Storm Water Rules in which the Plant is currently in compliance. See Permit Application transmittal letter and Attachment 4 for details on storm water.

only the name of the Betz CT-Betz CT-2 and 4 2 product has been changed to "Spedrus CT1300". The marked-up copy of the permit reflects the name change. However, in order for the Plant to adjust to the name change, the Company requests that the old name remain in parenthesis following the actual name in the renewed permit. Even though the product name changed, the product ingredients and associated concentrations have not changed.The Betz CT-4 product name did not change therefore, will remain the same.
