-6515 June 16, 1980 CEL 0175 Mr. James Flescher, Operations Chief PaDER 407 South Cas. aron Street Harrisburg, PA 17120

Dear Mr. Flescher:

Three Nile Island Nuclear Station (TMI)

In follow-up to a May 29, 1980 conversation between yourself and our Mr. E. S.

Nielsen, the following information details our plans to perform leak testing operations. We request that the PaDER review this information and advise us if we may proceed.

Two 500,000 gallon outdoor tanks are being installed to store the effluent produced from EPICOR II radwaste treatment system. That system has been operational for'the past six nonths, and to date all of the effluent has had to be atored rather than released to the river. Additional storage capacity is rcquired so as not to interrupt the TMI-2 clean up effort.

Prior to use, the tanks must be leak tested to insure that they are leak proof.

It is proposed that. the tanks be filled with river water from the plants fire service system to perform the test.' At the completion of the test,' the water will be routed to the yard drain system, which in turn is discharged from outfall 005 (east dam) into the east channel of the Susquehanna River. This flow path is detailed in Enclosure 1.

As we will be testing new tanks, which have not been used and the fact that river water will be used to perform the test, no contaminants are expected in the discharge.

Pending PACER approval, we plan to perform the tests on or about the following dates:

PW-T1-July 5 to 15, 1980 PW-T2-July 25 to August 4,1980 We will notify the PaDER by telephone two days prior tc erptying the tanks.

Should you require any additional information please contact Mr. E. S. Nielsen at 215-921-6586.

Sincerely,

?.

Discharge from PW-T1 and PW-T2 will be routed by the use of a hose to the yard drain system which in turn drains to the east dam area

- and then discharges out outfall 005.
