Acting Assistant Director for Environmental Projects & Technology Division of Site Safety and Environmental Analyses U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C. 20555 Re: Louisiana Power and Light Company Waterford Steam Electric Station Unit 3 St. Charles Parish, Louisiana

Dear Mr. Reagan:

At the request of the Louisiana Power and Light Company, members of my staff met with Louisiana Power and Light and their archaeological consultant, Envirosphere, Inc., on February 7,1980 at the Waterford site.

Based on this on site inspection, we offer the following observa-tions for your consideration:

(1) No significant old buildings are in or adjacent to the project area; and since the area is heavily industrialized, this project will have no additional visual impact on any other structures in the area.

(2) Since much of the remaining property is in backswamp, 1

the likeliiioed of finding prehistoric Indian sites in this area is low.

(3) It now appears that the Waterford Plantation has been destroyed by construction activities, and that little, if any, remnants of the site still exist.

b Based on these findings, we wisn to modify our reccmmendations outlined in our letter of December 27, 1979, and suggest that only a detailed literature search of the Waterford property be conducted.

If this research should indicate areas which niight contain undistarbed cultural deposits, then additional archaeological testing may be warranted. However, if tne literature search does not reveal any significant information, then an on-the-ground survey would not be.

j necessary.

If you have any questions concerning our review, please contact my staff in the Division of Archaeology and Historic Preservation.
