The programs to be suspended are those required by the following THI-2 ETS Sections:
3.1.1.a(1)
Thermal Characteristics of Cooling Water Discharge 3.1.1.a(2) pH 3.1.1.a(3)
Biocide 3.1.1.a(4)
Water Quality Analysis 3.1.1.a(S)
Chemical Release Inventory 3.1.2 Biotic 3.1.2.a Aquatic 3.1.2.a(1),

j 4.3 Hydraulic Effects 4.4 Herbicide Applications Met-Ed indicated that suspension of these programs is justified because the intent of the TMI-2 Tech. Spec requirement is to perform the above mentioned progra=s to observe the environmental impact of TMI-2 operation.
Because TMI-2 is not expected to operate for several years, Met-Ed indicated it is reasone51e to suspend the above mentioned programs ut.til TMI-2 reattains power cperatien.
NTT Indicated that politirnlly. It may not now he a gonel t hing t o ein.
Met-Ed responded that technically the suspension of these programs is warranted and economically (the programs cost nearly $400K/ year) suspenaion of these programs is justified.
