hh MEMORANDUM FOR MR. GEORGE GARDNER

. Department of the Interior 7l I MR. DANIEL MULLER U.S. Atomic Energy Commission l l

SUBJECT:

Crystal River Nuclear Plant This is a brief memorandum to summarize the major points discussed at the meeting-here at CEQ on Thursday, February 1, 1973 on the subject of the Crystal River Plant.

The representativesof the Department of the Interior outlined  !

a number of potentially serious environmental problems that I they felt could occur if the Crystal River Nuclear Unit #3 l were permitted to operate as proposed by the ut:ility. These problems centered principally around: l l

1 The effect of the long cooling water intake canal on movement of aquatic organism tlu:ough -- -

the Crystal River Bay. -

The entrainment of small fish and other organisms through the plant's cooling system.

I --

The impact of the heated water discharges on the j ecological balance of the bay.

i i

t

! AEC agreed to request the Florida Power Company to submit l

} to the Commission within a 30 day period,.if possible, a

,' detailed and comprehensive study outline to investigate - r.

the three major potential impact areas. The company would l 3

2 also be asked to prepare a detailed engineering design l feasibility study of alternative means of cooling the plant j l complex to be prepared concurrently with the comprehensive '

study. - -'

AEd agree $1 to consult with Interior on the material to be submitted by the utility and to schedule a meeting with the utility in order to make suggestions for improving and strengthening the utility's study outline. A meeting date no later than April 30, 1973 was considered imperative.

/

All agreed that it was extremely important to get a fix on an estimate of impact on the estuary and to get the utility thinking.about cooling system alternatives at a date sufficiently early to permit modification to the plant -

during the on-going construction period.
