COOLING. TOWER SALT DRIFT MONITORING PROGRAM C
FINAL: OPERATIONAL
SUMMARY
REPORT HOPE CREEK GENERATING' STATION DOCKETENO. 50-354
' Pursuant lto the requirements of Section 4.2.2 of Appendix B to Facility Operating License No. NPF-57, the Environmental Protection Plan, Public Service Electric and Gas hereby submits
.the' attached report, entitled " Operational Summary Report for J
Hope Creek' Generating Station Salt Drift Monitoring Program, January 1987 to March 1989."
This. report summarizes the results of the operational phase monitoring: program conducted to determine the potential for l-oadverse effects of cooling tower salt drift on vegetation and soils in.the vicinity of Hope Creek Generating Station.
The l
. report contains separate sections'on the salt deposition, native vegetation, soil, and comparative studies.
Theresults of the monitoring activities show that only minor, localized effects of cooling tower drift deposition are occurring.
Higher deposition rates potentially attributable to-the cooling tower were measured at only one location, which is on station property at a distance of 0.4 km downwind of the cooling l
tower,-and even these. highest deposition levels are well below L
the. deposition levels that have been reported to cause vegetative damage. ' Hope Creek Generating Station is surrounded by extensive
~l areasiof. tidal salt marsh and the nearest uplands are located j
l approximately three miles to the east, therefore, no significant i
p adverse' impacts can occur as a result of cooling tower operation.

As stated in Section 4.2.2 of the Environmental Protection Plan, the' salt drift monitoring program is to continue up to three years from receipt of license and-annual monitoring reports are to be submitted-to the NRC for review.
PSE&G has previously submitted all annual monitoring reports and submittal of the attached " Operational Summary Report" demonstrates that the program continued for three years from receipt of license.
Therefore, PSE&G has satisfied the commitments under Section 4.2.2 of the Environmental Protection Plan and this issue is considered closed.
