Docket No. 50-335 - Hutchinson Island Plant, Unit No.
1
Dear Dr,
Morris:
The Preliminary Safety Analysis Report portion of our Application for a Construction Permit for this project contem-plates intake of cooling water from the Indian River and discharge to the Atlantic Ocean.
Our.'ecological and environmental studies of the adjacent River and Ocean areas are well underway.
One of the purposes of this work is to determine if there are likely to be any adverse effects due to using the River as the cooling water source.
Concurrently, design studies are in progress on alternate plans using the Ocean both for intake and discharge.
Should any of our studies indicate that it would be in the public interest to utilize the Ocean as the source of cooling water, we will submit an amendment to our Application.
We would like for this letter to become a part of our official Application for a permit to construct the Hutchinson Island Plant.

(301) 973-3335 or 973-3446 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE APPLICATION FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANT ON FLORIDA EAST COAST RECEIVED BY AEC Florida Power
& Light Company of Miami has applied to the Atomic Energy Commission for a permit to build a nuclear power plant on Hutchinson Island on the east coast of Florida.
The proposed Hutchinson Island Nuclear Power Plant Unit No.
1 will use a pressurized water reactor and will be capable of producing about 890,000 gross electrical kilowatts.
The site for the plant consists of about 1,132 acres on Hutchinson Island in St. Lucie County about half-way between Fort Pierce and Stuart.
Combustion Engineering, Inc. will provide the nuclear steam supply system and Westinghouse Electric Corporation the turbine generator.
Ebasco
- Services, Inc. will be the major contractor and will provide engineering, construc-tion and procurement services for the balance of the plant.
The total cost to construct the project, including the nuclear fuel, is estimated to be approximately
$ 150 million.
The estimated earliest date for completion of the plant as stated in the application is January 1,
1973; the latest, January 1,
1974.
The application for a permit to build the proposed plant will be reviewed by the AEC Regulatory Staff and by the Commission's Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards.
Before the Commission can make a determination on the appli-
- cation, a public hearing must be held.
