1 PURPOSE OF THE FACILITY AND ASSOCIATED TRANSMISSION 2 1.1 ' SYSTEM DEMAND AND RELIABILITY In 1975, Consumers Power. Company served.22.1 billion kWh to approximately 1.2 Il lmillion' electric customers in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. By'1984,' when Midland Units.1-and 2 are expected to be in service, Consumers Power estimates 2 that it'will' have 1.4 million. electric customers on .its system and that they .

11 will uso'30.1. billion kWh.

Consumers Power is interconnected with several utility systems within the .

State of Michigan as well as in neighboring states and- the Province of Ontario, Canada. The, operation of its system is closely coordinated with that of The Detroit Edison Company.. In addition, it exchanges generation planning data with Detroit Edison. ' Consumers. Power Detroit Edison and other systen.s from several states.are members of the East Central Area Reliability Agreement group (ECAR). The purpose of ECAR'is to further augment the reliability of

.2 Its member' systems' bulk power supply through coordination of generation and .-

transmission planning and operation.

O 1.1.0.1 Elimination of Sales Promotion Practices In October 1970, the Company discontinued all efforts related to promotion of sales of electric energy. The Lompany also discontinued the merchandising of appliances on Decembar 31, 1972.

2 1.1.0.2 Promotion of Conservation of Electric Energy The Company has strongly encouraged builders and customers to install substantial ceiling, wall and floor or slab insulation as well as storm windows and storm doors in electric-heated dws111ngs. The Michigan Public 11l Service Commission (MPSC) has determined the Company's insulatsn program for 2lresidentialgascustomerstobethemostcostefficient in the State. As of 11 l July 1,1980, over 185,000 homes have had insulation installed since the 7 l inception of the program in November 1973. In Case U-5331 dated July 31, 11l1978, the MPSC established minimum insulation standards required of new customers to qualify for electric space heating service. They include R-35 in 7 ceilings, R-11 in sidewalls, R-19 in floors above unheated areas, and R-11 in basement walls if used as living area.

The Company presently has before the MPSC an Expanded Gas Conservation Program that would provide interest free financing to eligible customers who wish to install ceiling insulation. This program, when approved, is expected to 11 significantly increase the number of dwellings insulated. Adding insulation to gas heated homes reduces the need for electric energy to operate heat system auxiliaries such as fan motors or pumps.

A Thermoscan flyover program was held in Jackson, Michigan in spring 1977.

2 This program demonstrates the relative heat loss by building coloration on an REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 1.1-2 L __

js aerial photograph. The photo was publicized in the media and displayed at the Jackson Cour.ty Fair and Company offices.to acquaint Jackson residents with their relative insulation needs.

Company personnel work with _" Community Action" agency programs on home insulation for the poor and elderly and similar energy conservation problems of thase people. The Company's Energy Management Services Department, which currently includes approximately 160 energy management consultants and-2 additional General Office specialists, has assisted customers in energy conservation practices. In June 1977, a separate section was created in the General Office Energy Management Services Department which has complete responsibility for energy conservation. Customer assistance has included

.- 5f~%

meetings with residential customers on efficient use of' appliances, in-plant visits with commercial and industrial customers, partir ipation in a State-wide and Regional Energy Conservation Expositions, and distribution of a quarterly 11 " Energy Newsletter" to a wide variety of commercial and industrial customers as well as architects and engineers'. In 1976, the Company began publishing a quarterly newsletter designed specifically for builders. It provides timely information on energy supply,-application and conservation of interest to 2 resioential homebuilders, larvi o0velopers and other related businesses such as banking and lending institutions and building material suppliers.

To assist in providing customers with information on energy conservation, the Company has developed and made available a ~ wide variety of brochures including 11 the following:

In November 1978, the Company implemented a $500,000 Residential Electric 7 Customer Information Program which includes mailing conservation information to customers along with their bills for electric service. The first of four mailings scheduled for 1979 was completed in February in which 1,150,000 copies of the booklet, "Saving Energy Is A Family Affair," were mailed. Three 11 additional mailings in 1979 covered air conditioning, preparation for the heating season and the National Energy Watch Program. Also, as a part of this program, the Company has appointed a solar energy specialist in each of its operating regions to offer advice and assistance to customers on all forms of 7 solar energy.

To further promote conservation, in 1978 the Company participated in the National Energy Watch Program which is carried out in conjunction with the

Edison Electric Institute. The basic concept' of this program is to publicly l

~7 recognize energy efficient homes'in order to encourage both builders and

~

, owners'of existing homes to bring their. dwellings up to desired energy

), 11 effit.iency standards. ~As stated,'one mailing in 1979 promoted participation in this program.

In addition,=' energy conservation is promoted through newspapers, radio and television. A column islnow-offered to weekly newspapers called " Crossways" and discusses efficient use of~ energy and related issues.

4 2 Efforts to conserve energy'in Company buildings show 29.4*. savings in electric energy and 29.7*. in gas energy in the first year of that program following the

, 1973 oil. embargo. H is conservation program is a continuing activity.

In 1976, the Company implemented a program for the conversion of its incandescent streetlighting to more efficient light sources. The Company offers incentives to its streetlighting customers to convert incandescent luminaires _ to the more efficient mercury vapor and high pressure sodium types. 1 High produre -soda un units are now a standard for new installations with -

mercury vapor available on request. New installations of incandescent il streetlighting are no-longer allowed. High pressure; sodium units offer an energy savings of about 80 percent over incandescents. Mercury vapor luminaires cut energy use about-60 percent when compared to incandescents.

~

Total incandescent units at the beginning of 1977 numbered nearly 45,000. As a result of the conversion program this number has been reduced by one-half.

Total kWh sales for streetlighting peaked in 1977 at-166,633,000 kWh. In 1979IstreetligNingsalesLwere 160,828,000-kWh even though_the total number AM 'f.luminaires o on the. Company's system grew from.124,072-to 130,665'. The REVISION 117- SEPTEMBER'1980 1.1 _

Company encourages its customers to use more efficient lighting types in streetlighting applications.

As part of its conservation efforts the Company tests new products to determine their potential to help conserve energy. In 1979 and 1980 the 11 Company tested the heat puap water heater, NASA motor controller and hydrotherm pulse combustion boilers. As a result the Company recommends to its customers the replacement of electric resistance water heaters with the heat pump water heater to reduce energy requirements by up to 50%.

As stated in Section 1.1.1.2, Consumers Power has factored its energy conservation experience into its forecasts as well as further energy conservation savings which it anticipates.

1.1.0.3 Energy Conservation Studies 2 The Company was one of 12 utility ccmpanies in the nation that participated in a national heat pump study sponsored by Electric Power Research Institute and the Association of Edison Illuminating Companies. The Company had 10 customers with heat pumps extensively submetered to assess the costs and benefits of the heat pump as compared with alternative heating and air-conditioning systems. Results showed the operating costs of heat pumps in the Company test to be approximately 30*.' more efficient than comparable resistance 7 electric heating. The national study showed better results in warmer climat.es, which was expected.

.J 2 1.1.0.4 Measuring the Effect of Energy Conservation Measurements have been made on an annual basis of samples of residential space heating customers concerning their energy conservation efforts since November 1973. Electric and gas residential space heating customers continue to 11 exhibit conservation efforts since the first few months following the Arab oil embargo, but not at the same level experienced in the winter of 1973-1974.

A special study among industrial customers, ordered by the MPSC in Case U-4576, was made to determine the potential for reduced customer usage. hany had effected some conservation prior to the survey in early 1976, all of which has been reflected in the Company's Long-Range Forecast.

[)

Q,,1 2 1.1.0.5 Conservation Efforts Through Rate Design The Company in recent years has been ordered by the Commission to institute a flat-type rate for residential customers (November 1973) and for small 11 l commercial and industrial customers (January 1975). In April 1976, the MPSC g ordered inverted rates for residential customers except residential electric heat during the heating season. The effects of this rate on customer usage were studied. To measure the effect of the inverted rate design, customer usage patterns were studied following both the 1975 rate increase when a flat-2 type rate was applied before and after the rate increase, and the 1976 rate increase when the flat-type rate was succeeded by the inverted rate. After both rate increases, usage patterns declined slightly,-but the results did not indicate that the decrease following the imposition of the inverted rate was any more significaut than the decreate following the rate increase with no j

( change in rate design.

MIDLAND 1&2-ER(OLS)

O The inverted rate concept may influence the residential customer to reduce his 2 energy consumption level, but it probably will have little or no effect on system demand on the day of the summer system peak demand. In June 1980, the Governor signed into effect a bill which mandates the MPSC to implement a lifeline rate within one year for residential customers. While the stated 11 purpose of this bill is to " provide for an adequate amount of electricity for basic household needs at a lower cost" and to " provide an economic incentive to conserve energy resources," it remains to be seen whether these objectives will be met.

2jTime-of-dayrateshavebeenofferedforyearstolargecommercialand 11 industrial customers by disregarding off-peak demands in the determination of the on-peak billing demand. Of the approximately 1,600 customers eligible for this rate, only 11 customers have consciously shifted some load to off peak periods, accounting for a reduction of some 100,000 kW in demand, which is already reflected in system demand. Based on a survey conducted by Consumers Power in early 1976 (and discussed in Section 1.1.0.4)'of its large primary commercial and industrial customers, many of them indicated that there was little likelihood that they wculd shift load from peak load periods. With the cost of electric energy generally being less than 5*. of their total product or 2 operating cost, there is little incentive to make the changes necessary to sulft load.

Consumers Power Company's annual load factor is among the highest of utility companies in tha country. In addition, the Ludington Pumped Storage Plant provides a further improvement to the Company's load profile so that the benefits of shifting load from on peak to off peak may be substantially less REVIJION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 1.1-8

' lll In April:1976, the NPSC. ordered time-of-day energy pricing for the energy -

purchases of the primary commercial and industrial customers. "'he Company attempted.co determine the impact of this rate on the affected customers.

While modest _ improvements occurred in load factor and percent on-peak consumption, there were so many other factors impinging on customers affected

~

by this-rate.that ascribing this improvement to the introduction of time-of-

2 day rates is of douotful validity. In comparing the periods before and after ,

implementation of tiime-of-day rates, it should be noted that the on-peak period covers a different number of hours and some differences in time periods during the day. In addition, econcsic conditions improved from one period to the next and the energy cost differer.tial amounted to only 0.2 cent /kWh.

(This differential was_ increased to 0.3 cent /kWh in 1978.) -

11

'In April 1977, the MPSC approved ari extensive experimental program for nessuring residential and small commercial and industrial customers' responses 2 to time-of-day. pricing proposed by the Company. This program involves approximately.210 residential customers and 265 small commercial and

O currsnt pattern of electric usage for the purpose of saving on their utility 2 bill. This will also allow the Company to measure the benefits, if any, that might be realized from this pricing mechanism against the costs of implementation. Such cost / benefit analyses are currently underway. This test program and the ccatrolled load experiment discussed below cost some 11 $1,200,000 to complete. The Company will be submitting evidence and testimony concerning the cost effectiveness of time-of-day rates for residential and small commercial customers in the next filed rate case as mandated in the MPSC Order in Case U-6490 issued May 2, 1980.

Incorporated in the above program is a controlled load experiment. This 2 involves an on-line experiment for controlling customer loads during peaks of system electric demand. The experiment, conducted in the Jackson area, demonstrated that water heating loads can be controlled for up to four hours without customer dissatisfaction. The payback load is approxicately twice the load reduction. Average diversified water heating loads range from 0.5 to 0.75 kW during peak hours. The use of 15 minute per hour controls for central air conditioning and space heating did not result in significant load 11 reductions due to the cyclic nature of these loads. However, modest reductions in large commercial air-conditioning loads can be achieved when outdoor temperatures exceed 76 degrees. The Company will be submitting evidence and testimony concerning the cost effectiveness of interruptible air conditioning and water heating rates for residential and small commercial customers in the next filed rate case as mandated in MPSC Order in Case U-6490 issued May 2, 1980.

There have been many stud'ies in the past.15 to 20 years to determine the numerical magnitude. of the elasticity coefficients. These studies have 11 l resulta'd in a viriety or short-run and long-run elasticities. There are numerous problems in applying the results of these studies to current conditions.and to the Consumers Power system. The primary problems are:

fiist,;it is questionable to use aggregate data covering many utility areas, rather than specific systems; second, that the data included and the resulting '

elasticities were measured during periods of declining energy prices and thus indicated the amount of increase in energy consumption per decrease in price,-

2 there being inadequate evidence'to establish that once tbs customer's usage pattern has been sati-'at a. higher -level,' he would decrease consumption due to -

higher! energy prices at the same rate at which ensumption was increased; third, that. elasticities have not bean developed for customers at differing levels of el'ectricity consumption;- and finally,' questions of how to measure the price variable.

O of values found in other studies, could not shcw that these price coefficients were true measures of price elasticity. Because of the declining block rate structure and little variation in price during the period under study, the consultants could not establish a measure of price elasticity.

Marginal Cost Pricing attempts to provide the customer with information 2 regarding his cost of the next unit of energy purchased. The customer cost would reflect the utility's cost of adding a new generating facility or purchasing high-cost power. One of the many problems is that utilities are governed by historical revenue constraints and once marginal cost rates are scaled back to fit this constraint, the reeulting rate really is not priced at 11lmargiaalcosts. The MPSC, in Order U-4840, stated that this method of pricing

". . .in a practical sense can accomplish little more in the way of providing correct price signals to the consumer than the current revenue requirement method."

Those advocates of marginal cost pricing anticipate that energy users faced with the higher ma ainal costs may reduce their energy consumption. Hewever, on sunmer system peak demand days, which generally occur on the hottest weekday of the summer, customers are likely to run their air-conditioners and 2 other cooling 1.oads with little regard for the price. The Company will in all probability enperience what are commonly referred to as " needle peaks" that would be essentially of the same magnitude as peaks created under conventional embedded cost ratemaking philosophy.

In December 1974, the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARCC) at its annual convention passed Resolution 9 which called for the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) and the Electric Power Research Institute REVI!! ION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 1.1-12 I

(EPRI) to conduct a joint study "of the technology and cost of time-of-day metering ~and~ electronic methods of controlling peak-period usage of electricity and also a study of the feasibility and cost of shifting various types of usage from peak to off-peak periods."

2 The first phase of this project was funded by EPRI at approximately $1,000,000 and was directed by the Project Committee through a full-time executive director. The study representation came from investor-owned utilities, Americt Public Power Association, National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners and others.

All of the task force findings have been published and a summary report was issued in early November 1977. There were four recommendations for the future as follows, with certain members of the Project Committee exhibiting 1 disagreement in general and specific disagreement with Item d:

(a) Additional research is needed.

2 (b) Regulators and utility managers should evaluate the. cost-effectiveness of time-differentiated rates and load controls.

(c) When an evaluation shows that benefits exceed costs, load management strategies normally sheuld be implemented gradually.

O Most of the Project Committee rejected Item d on the basis that the research 2 in the report did not support the recommendation.

A second phase of the study calling for a more in-depth study of certain phases of the issues has been completed and while no additional conclusions have been drawn, many of the issues being studied were mandated by the .

National Energy Act and mors specifically PURPA (Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act). This legislation, passed in November 1978, covered every electric utility with retail sales in excess of 500 million kWh annually. It stipulated that each utility should study and/or implement certain ratemaking standards. These were:

(a) Cost of service based rates (b) Prohibition of declining block rates except wehre cost justified 11 (c) Implement time-of-day rates where cost justified (d) Implement seasonal rates where cost justified (e) Implement interruptible rate (f) Implament load management where cost effective (g) Implement a lifeline rate unless determined through an evidentiary hearing that it should not be. .

In addition to the above ratemaking standards each utility must meet certain standards related to master metering, automatic adjustment clauses, customer information termination of service and advertising.

This means that electricity is not a major cost item in his budget nor has it 2 increased'significantly in' relationship to his effective buying income over the past 18 years.

11 The Company's study of time-of-day rates, which has just been completed, should show the customer's propensity to voluntarily defer use of a portion of his' electric' consumption to an off peak period. However, there are many who ,

view with scepticism the ability of a customer to voluntarily defer loads such as air conditioning,' cooking, television .-lighting and water heating.

O there has been evidence chat customers are responding to such programs. The effect of those efforts has been incorporated in the Company's current long-2 range forecast. Additional rate design incentives to conserve energy and reduce peak loads have also been instituted during this period, including the flat-rate concept for small commercial and industrial customers, time-of-day 11 pricing for residential space heating, large farms and large commercial and industrial customers ind, more recently, an inverted rate structure for 2 residantial customers. Significant increases in overall rate levels have also occurred during this period. Such stimuli have modified the increase in 11 consumption levels which has been reflected in the Company's forecasts.

Only through radical increases in rate levels, along with the application of radically new rate structures which dramatically changs historical price / usage relationships, are further significant changes in usage patterns likely to occur. The Michigan Public Service Commission is unlikely to permit radical price increases and its concern with the effect that radical changes in rate 2 structures may have on the economy of the State, particularly its concern that industry could be driven out of Michigan, will in all likelihood cause it to take a cautious and moderate approach toward such changes. Consequently, Consumers Power believes that consumption patterns are very unlikelv to deviate substantially from those currently projected and reflected in its ,

O budget preparation and other planning activities are updated ar.nually and on interim bases as required. The data are documented and distributed by means of a forecast data book and recorded in the minutes of the EFERC meetings.

Any Company document or study utilizing future projections of energy sales or demand should reference the forecast currently in effect or should explicitly state that the official forecast was not utilized and what assumptions were.

Long-term and short-term forecasts are prepared separately and treated independently because of their different end uses. The gas and electric forecasts are prepared and reviewed in a generally similar manner except that gas demand is currently not considered to exert any major constraints on the Company's operations. However, the long-term ferecast must examine gas demand as well as any possible supply limitations.

Short-Term Forecast Short-term forecasts for the next two years are prepared for gas sales and both electric sales and demand. The short-term forecast encompasses the upcoming budget year and the planning year beyond, and has as its starting point the current sales and demand data at the time the forecast is submitted for review. The 'early update of the short-term forecast is presented to the EFERC in August in order that the new short-term forecast can be incorporated in the detailed budget review and corporate revenue projections that follow.

The short-term forecast is divided into monthly segments and as such, includes monthly variations due to the seasonal effacts as established by the average weather trends over the last 30 years. Also included would be any cyclic variations in the business cycle as predicted by whatever short-term economic projections are being utilized. Tn addition, the short-term forecasr

Lorm-Ters Forecast-The long-term forecast currently extends 15 years into the future on an official basis for the projections of electric and gas energy sales and electric peak demand. This forecast is' extended further on an unofficial basis in order to support certain very long-range planning activities.

The long-term forecast is-constructed.by identifying the factors which determine the major trends in average, annual growth rate.

For example, projections of future system load factors are supplied by the Energy Control Department and genersi economic forecasts are provided by the Economic and Fincncial Planning Department. The long-term forecast is reviewed by the EFERC in January in order to provide a current long-term forecast for the initiation of the Company's yearly long-term planning update.

Interim Analyses Because of the year-long interval between revisions of the Company's forecasts, events will occur in the interim which have a potential impact on 2 the forecast. Necessarily, various departments within the Company will undertake analyses of these events.

All such information is available to the members of the EFERC and to the departments having the responsibility for preparing the forecasts. If in the opinion of the EFERC or other members of the Company's top management the new developments are of a sufficient significance, a new forecast may be undertaken immediately.

O 7 lThe EFERC has reviewed and approved a revised long-term forecast of electric energy sales and peak demand as of December 1979. This update supersedes the previous long-term forecast approved by the EFERC in December of 1978. The new forecast projects a 15-year 1979-1994 average annual compound rate of growth (AAR) of 2.75"..

11 Peak demand for the years 1980 through 1994 was calculated assuming a load factor of 68.5* and a system efficiency of 91.5*..

2lArangeofuncertaintieswasdevelopedforthenowforecast. Expressed as a percentage of the 1979 sales, the high range (having a 15*. probability of occurrence) shows a 107". increase by 1994, while the low range (also having a 11 15* probability of occurrence) exhibits a 4*. decrease from current levels over the same period. The expected value for 1994, which has a 70*. probability of occurrence, was projected to increase by 50" from the 1979 level.

7 The forecast represents a downward revision from historic growth rates. It was prepared by combining regression analysis of the past sales data with specific investigations of certain " forward looking" items which were 2 identified as likely to influence future sales. The future state of the economy was the most important determinant of future energy sales, but considerable. impact was exerted by the projected price of energy and the 7 multiple factors predicted to be the outcome of the National Energy Policy.

O 11 data was selected for three reasons. -First, the Michigan economy, which includes the economy of Consumers Power Company's service area, is highly influenced by the automotive industry and has historically followed national 2 trends. Secondly, there is currently no long-term " bottom up" projection of the Michigan economy available. There are some generalized regional models based on adjusted national trends, but this is essentially what the regression 11 analysis achieves. Third, the quality of historic national economic data is much better than the quality and consistency of local economic data. The 2 projections for the cost of electricity and gas for use in the regression models were developed from the 15-year corporate planning analysis prepared in 11l 1979 using the Consumers Power Company planning model.

The impact of future factors or " forward-looking" items was developed from individual analyses which were directly applied as adjustments to the regression model results. Because of the over' r. . ping of many of the factors relating to the general categor'es of conservati>n and the National Energy Policy, care was taken to avoid, to the extent possible, double counting of 2 the same effect. Specific investigations or factors were developed for appliance efficiency improvements, cogeneration, industrial and commercial conservation and conversions to alternate fuels, electric vehicles and solar energy utilization.

Where possible, the fo>acast employed data directly obtained from various 11 customer samples. Foremost in this category was a major study conducted by the SRI International (SRI) in 1977 of the energy end use of the Company's 2 major industrial and commercial customers. This study resulted in an assessment by SRI of the potential in these two sales sectors for additional REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 1.1-N j

O Residential Sales The forecast of residential sales is divided into two parts: Residential 2 space heating sales and residential domestic sales. To develop the forecast, three regression models were prepared: models for average usage in each category and a single model for residential customer gain. The independent variables include an appliance index and a measure of people per household in 11 the domestic usage model, a measure of disposable faceme in the space heating usage model, the price of electricity in both usage models, and housing stock and population in the customer model.

The two average use model's each contain a price term which is a downward force on the growth rate and, as such, represents the general conservation trend currently being experienced. Depending c,n the mathematical form of the 2 specific model, some form of implied price elasticity can be derived from 'che regression models and comparison with published data shows at least general agreement with what is defined as " shore term" eiasticity in the literature.

However, the price coefficients are derived quantities from the regression 11l analysis , not input parameters. As such they represent something other than 2 pure price elasticity effects, particularly in a regression model utilizing only a few independent variables. For example, it can reasonably be argued 11l that the price term in the residential models represents, at least in part, 2 all aspects of conservation of electricity through reduced usage, whether from patriotic, peer pressure, media influence or strictly economic motiver.

7 l the space-heating category. Finally, ' adjustments to the total residential 2- sales were made to reflect the advent. of solar heating and cooling and the electric vehicle. in the latter part of the forecast period.

2 A second adjustment to total residential sales was the potential impact of the commerciali:ation of electric vehicles. Based on a survey of current activity in this area, it was concluded that the electric vehicle is expected to increase residential electric sales by about 9% by 1994.

Commercial-Sales I The. approach used to_ project commercial sales was to establish a base forecast .

2 using a regression model (refer _to Table-1.1-4) and to apply analyses of the potential impact of specific " forward-looking" items to this base forecast.

The' economic: variables used in the regression model were dispos'a ble income per 11I capita, the real price of electricity and the real price of gas. Disposable 2 l income per capita was by far the most significant variable. The specific forward-looking items for.which adjustments were made were solar energy and

.11 the electric vehicle. The results of the 1977 SRI energy end use study of the Company's industrial and commercial customers and the internal 1979 update 7]wereusedtoprojectconservation. Since the regression model contained a 11 price of' electricity term, it was necessary to reconcile the SKI projections

\

of expected conservation with those inferred from the model analysis. Incre-2 mental conservation was reflected by. adjusting the expected value of the SRI probability curve downward to avoid' double counting the conservation already reflected in the model. This approach led us to-conclude that the model is adequately reflecting the expected level of future commercial conservation.

The projection of the' impact of solar energy, amounting to about a 260 million n kWh reduction by 1994,- is an ' adjustment to sthe commercial sales forecast. In addition, the electric vehicles were assumed to add about 130 million kWh to 1994 commercial-sales.

O 11 Industrial Sales 2 The approach used to project future industrial sales was to develop a regression model base forecast (refer to Table 1.1-4) and then to modify the base forecast for specific forward-looking items. Separate regression models 7 were developed for both GM sales and for industrial sales to other than Dow 2 and GM. Sales to Dow were forecast by direct consultation with Dow.

Industrial sales to GM accounts are projected as a function of GM auto 11l Production, motor vehicle real gross capital stock, and the price of 7 electricity.

O The regression model used to forecast industrial sales excluding GM and Dow is 2 based on GNP and the price of electricity as the independent variables. The' forecast was much more sensitive to variations in GNP than to changes in the 7 price of electricity.

2lBasedonlyontheDowcommunicationsandtheregressionmodelprojections, total industrial sales would be projected to grow at a 1979-1994 AAR of 3.2*..

'11 Cogeneration and self-generation were estimated by a 1979 Consumers Power Company study and a 1979 external analysis. The expected impact of additional cogeneration and self-generation is to reduce 1994 potential industrial sales by 480 million kWh.

1.1.1.2.3 Generation Requirements and Peak Load Projections Consumers Power's peak load projections are developed from its sales forecasts. Since the sales forecasts measure energy requirements at the point of sale and energy losses take place between the generation facilities and the point of sale, the sales forecasts must be divided by an efficiency factor to determine the amount of generation necessary to meet the sales forecasts. The efficiency factor is a ratio of sales to generation calculated on the basis of historical trends, modified to reflect known or expected factors that will 2 influence efficiency. Application of the efficiency factor results in an estimatr, of ti total generation requirement in kWh necessary to meet the annual sales forecast. The expected peak load is calculated by dividing the average demand (ie, the total generation requirement divided by the hours in the year) by the estimated annual load factor for the year. The annual load factor is a ratio of. average demand to peak demand.

Annual load factors are developed from historical relationships of load factors based on summer maximum demands and winter maximum demsnds. In projecting future load factors, consideration is given to the impact of such things as energy conservation, pricing of energy, availability of gas with the REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 1.1-32

O hot weather, statistical treatment of random unit outages, and mutual assistance within the integrated regional system.

1.1.3.1 Maintenance For probability assessment purposes, generating unit maintenance is assumed scheduled so as to levelize the risk of outage over tha entire year. To do 2 this, scheduled maintenance on units is preferentially grouced to the extent possible, in periods of the year when the level of loads is lower (ie, autu=n and spring).

1.1.3.2 Loss of Load Probability Methods Application of the generation planning reliability design guide requires that a loss of load probability (LOLP) method be applied to an integrated regional 11l system of companies. The actual determination of the LOLE index for the integrated system is completed with the use of computer simulations. For the purposes of this computation, the year is modeled by monthly intervals.

2 Within each month maintenance is considered constant. Based on projected generating unit maintenance requirements and peak loads for each month, a schedule of unit outages is developed. Then, for each month, a normal capacity outage distribution is determined using standard techniques. The projected weekday peak loads are convolved with the normal capacity outage 11 distribution to yield a capacity surplus or deficiency and its probability of occurrence.

This simulation is first performed for a system with a peak load equal to the eastern United Stated and Ontario Hydro (called the integrated regional system) but with a load shape and generating unit characteristics and mix REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 1.1-36

MIDLAND 1&2-ER(OLS)

\g#

which is equivalent to the combined systems of the East Central Area Reliability system and Ontario Hydro. Generation capacity is then adjusted until a 1 day /10 years LOLE is obtained. This simulation indicates the aggregate generation capacity requirements of the utilities in the eastern United States and Ontario Hydro. An additional simulation is then performed in ocder to allocate the capacity requirement to each utility. The philosophy is that each utility must supply an equitable capacity contribution to the integrated regional system (IRS). Given any reliability goal for the IRS, '

11 Consumers Power Company should,.therefore, receive support (measured by negative days) from the IRS ~ members equal to the support received by an Average Integrated Regional System (AIRS). The AIRS for Consumers may be defined as one whose peak demand is equal to Consumers' peak demand and whose v load shape and generating units characteristics and mix is equivalent to the IRS. Consumers Power Company required generating capacity is then determined by adjusting Consumers Power's reserve to maintain the negative day count of an AIRS to support the established 1 day /10 years LOLE index.

2 l Consumers Power's. generating unit capacities for purposes of reliability 11l. studies are as shown in Table 1.1-9. Unit availability and maintenance 2 l projections - for the first year of service of Midland units are shown in Table 1.1-13. The monthly load model for Consumers Power for the same year is shown in Table'1.1-14 The systems in ECAR are modeled from information taken from i 1

O Division of OH entitled " January 1980 Forecast of Reliability Indices For Use in Corporate Planning Studies".

Results of the analysis for a AIRS load of 5150 MW appear in Figure 1.1-2.

This figure presents the relationship between the required negative days for an AIRS and the supported LOLE index for the IRS. As can be seen, for an LOLE 11 index of I day /10 years Consumers Power would be required to install capacity so that external support would be requested for no more than 46 days / year.

Figure 1.1-3 translates this negative day requirement into a capcity requirement at 23". unit unavailability. The graph indicates a reserve level of 25.5% would be necessary.

1.1.3.3 Capacity Suoport Whenever capacity is added *o a system, the amount of reserves in megawatts O

2 needed to cover outages increases. In terms of percent of peak load, however, the generation reserves required remain nearly constant. This is due to the fact that the capacity is not added until load has increased to the point 11l where it is need.d. The impact of the addition of a generating unit or units to a system is always to enhance its reliability.

With respect to its interconnections, Consumers Pcwer's policy is to provide 2 sufficient transmission capability so that, under credible contingencies, the full amount of capacity support needed from outside sources can be imported.

1.1.3.4 Reserve Responsibility ECAR has established the following objectives:

O

's. /. .

~(a) : Assure an abundant supply of electric energy to meet present and future.needs.

(b) . Achieve maximum reliability and continuity of service.

(c) Accomplish the first two objectives while protecting and preserving the environment.

2 Under.th's terms of Consumers Power's coordination agreement with Detroit Edison, Consumers Power .s not obligated to maintain a particular. reserve level; instead it has agreed to provide an adequate amount of reserve to meet operating reserves. It is Consumers Power's judgment that its reliability assessment methodology adequately meets both of these requirements.

n 1.1.4 External Suoporting Studies Based on an." Appraisal of ECAR-Wide Installed Reserves for the Period 1980-1989", Report No 80-GRP-57, reserve levels will be less than desired if the average generating unit unavailability continues at the current level and if the load and capacity conditions reported in the 1980 ECAR response to DOE / ERA 11 materialize.

For the years 1983 and-1984, assuming a 30*. unavailability for existing units, ECAR's system of companies will operate at an LOLP index of approximately 1

25 day / year. It should be noted that this study assumed all units presently scheduled for operation by 1983.and 1984 are in service. Delays in the in-service dates of these units would change the LOLP index.

l 1.3 CONSEQUENCES OF DELAY 2l Yhe effect of a , delay in the in-service dates of the Midland Plant Units 1 and 4 2 would have adverse consequences on the reliability of the Consumers Power system as well as the groups of which it is a member. Assuming a one , two-2 or three-year delay in the commercialJoperation dates. of the Midland Plant results in the following reserve percentages .for the Consumers Power system:

l .1-Year 2-Year 3-Year 41 Year No Delay Delay Delay Delay 1984 46.7 23.2 23.2 23.2 1] 1985 34.1 34.1 20.3 20.3 1986 30.3 30.3 30.3 16.9 2l Similar data for the Consumers Power-Detroit Edison system are:

11 In the 1984 through 1986 period considered, ECAR's indicated reserves (including interruptible load) and the estimated effect of the above delays on those reserves are:

This report projects that additional 11l capacity of 7,000 MW or more, above that already projected, would be required by the early 1980s and thereafter to supply the projected load requirements in a reliable manner.

Above the Dow Dam, the presence of a diverse and well-balanced macroinvertebrate community indicated clean water conditions. Below the dam, the areas that received The Dow Chemical Company and general wastewater treatment plant discharges had severely degraded water quality conditions.

Macroinvertebrates were limited to midges and sludgeworms. Some recovery was observed from the Freeland Station downstream.

The MWRC(14) 1974 survey yielded data indicating a substantial recovery and biological recuperation at the Smith's Crossing and Freeland Stations and a pronounced improvement below the Midland wastewater treatment plant since 1971. Figure 2.2-4 shows these differences as reflected by biotic index values (14).

Consumers Power Company, Department of Environmental Services, contracted the 11 l Department of Biology of Central Michigan University during 1977 and 1978 to survey the biological communities of the Tittabawassee River near Midland and examine various methodologies for future monitoring of these communities. The biological communities investigated were: primary producers (phytoplankton, periphyton, chlorophyll, autotrophic index), macroinvertebrates (including zooplankton), and fish (fish-Isrvae, juvenile and adult). The 1977 effort is 11 included as Appendix-2.2C while 1978 data is available in the report, Survey and Evaluation of the Water Quality, Tittabawassee River, Near Midland, Michigan, 1978-1979, prepared by Central Michigen University, April 1979.

MIDLAND 152-ER(OLS) 2.2.2.5 Summary of Consumers Power Company's Preocerational Monitoring During O

1979 During 1979, Lawler, Matusky and Skelly Engineers were contracted by Consumers Power Company, Depart =ent of Environmental Services, to assess the 1977-1978 pilot investigation data and develop an experimental design for long-term ecological monitorin;; in the Tittabawassee River. Lawler, Matusky and Skelly Engineers accomplished these tasks through preparatien of the reports:

Assessment of 1977-78 Data (14b) and Experimental Design of the Long-Term Ecological Monitoring Program of the Tittabawassee River Near the Midland Nuclear Plant (14c). The State of Michigan Water Resources Commission approved the experimental design for long-term monitoring in October 1919. The initial preoperational year of ecological monitoring using the appraved experimental design, as described in Section 6.1.1, was conducted by Lawler, Matusky and Skelly during 1979 and is available in the report, Acuatic Assessment of the Tittsbawassee River in the Vicinity of Midland, Michigan (14d). A summary of 12 this preoperational data is presented below. Refer to Figure 6.1.la to identify transect and sampling station locations.

2.2.2.5.1 Phytoolankton Whole water phytoplankton samples were collected four times during 1979 on 8 May, 19 June, 10 August, and 12 October at two river stations. The community was composed mainly of three groups: diatoms, green algae, and blue-green algae.

Total phytoplankton abundance fluctuated over time and generally followed a classical pattern of abundance for the latitude of the area sampled. No consistent differences in abundance between stations were detected. Fiovolume Ol l REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 2.2-16 l

As}- information.was included in the report as. an aid in determining the relative photosynthetic potential of each. dominant taxon.

2.2.2.5.2 Perichyton The periphyton community in the Midland vicinity of the Tittabawassee River is composed primarily of diatoes (Chrysophyta), green algae (Chlorophyta), blue-green algae (Cyanophyta), and Euglenophyta. Statistical analyses were conducted using the abundance data to detect possible differences between sampling dates, transects, and stations.

A statistical rationale for reducing the' number of transects to be sampled in -i future studies at the Midland Plant site was developed. The technique involved a comparison of the complete data set using the 15-station design vs the minimal two-station design to determine how reduction of the sampling strategy would affect the conclusions. The results showed that the only 11 conclusions lost by the 87*. reduction of the data are the significant seasonality of Chlorophyta and Euglenophyta and the station differences of the latter. The seasonality is' expected and therefore the reduction is not a major loss'to the antlysis. In addition, Euglenophyta never account for more than 10* of the organisms ~at any station on any date so detectability of such station differences does not justify the 13 additional stations.

2.2.2.5.3: Zooplankton Three: taxonomic groups' dominated the Tittabawassee River microzooplankten:

rotifers,.cladocerans,~and copepods. The community structure of river microzooplankton' depends on the following factors: the reproductive strategy of the variousitaxa, feeding behavior, competition, predation, and the i J REVISION 11 -:SEPTENBER 1980 2.2 n

O capacity of populationa to increase. The observations serve as a valuable data base for future comparisons. Bosmina coregoni was tha most abundant cladoceran species identified in the Tittabawassee River.

Temporal and spatial trends in distribution and abundance were examined visually and statistically through the me of analysis of variance (ANOVA).

Seasonality was confirmed in every analysis with a Bonierroni comparison, but spatial heterogeneity was not readily apparent, although Station 2A ' I" midstream above the Midland Plant intake, tended to have higher densities of microzooplankton. Community analysis revealed that Station D , below the 2

Midland Plant intake, had consistently higher diversity (Shannon-Weaver) than A2, but the small sample size involved may be an incomplete representation of the community structure.

2.2.2.5.4 Macroinvertebrates O

11 Macroinvertebrates were collected by Ponar grab samples and artificial substrates in the Midland vicinity of the Tittabawassee River. The results of the Ponar grab samples show that the Lanthic community is not well established and is most likely sustained by continued colonization from upstream population epicenters. The June 1979 benthic invertebrats data covered five g transects of three atations each for a total of 15 collection sites. To I

determine significant differences among replicates, transects, or stations, the data were analyzed statistically using split plot and whole plot analysis of variance following log transformation of the data.

Significant differences were found only for ephemeropterans, and were among l transects. Examination of the June data for each station reveals that a major l l

influence of this transeat heterogeneity was the absence of ephemeropterans at l REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 2.2-18

one transect. .For the total benthos and individual groups, mean abundances ,

were available. Considering that reported abundance values included all macroinvertebrates retained in the Ponar grab, it would seem that, as suggested by the sediment analysis, the benthos community in the river is depauperate.

The number of taxa identified in artificial substrate collections was not much higher than that of the Ponar grab samplers, although the taxa occurred in greater densities. .Thus, a more diverse and abundant community of macroinvertebrates was able to develop on the samplers during the approximate six-week immersion periods.

Macroinvertebrates collected on , artificial substrates were evaluated for seasonal differences in abundance. The tests revealed tilat there wete significant date differences for all groups tested; one of the major changes n in abundance over time involved low densities in October, primarily at Station D2 downstream of the plant intaks, It would appear that, given identical substrates, the two areas (A upstream 2

and D2downstream) were able to support similar densities of the dominant matroinvertebrace groups. This is probably releted, in part, to colonization from upstream populations so that the two sets of artificial substrate samplers were exposed to the same stock of drifting organisms.

J Shannon diversity indices were computed at the taxonomic level of genus. In May and June, the diversity at A 2was somewhat higher than at D2 . Although 4

this cannot bs accounted for in terms of number of genera, the evenness index and abundances show that there was a more even~ distribution of organisms among l

. REVISION-11~- SEPTEMBER 1980 2.2-19

7-MIDLAND 1&2-ER(OLS) the genera.

O In August and October, diversity was higher at 2D than at A2 '

partly as a result of the increased evenness index at Station D .

The groups of macroinvertebrates (total benthos, Chironomidae, Oligochaeta) examined were consistently more abundant in artificial substrate samples than in Ponar grab samples. This difference was most pronounced for oligochaetes, which suggests that the unstable sandy river bottom was unfavorable for these infaunal taxa. This was tentatively attributed to bottom sediment particle size distributioa and low organic content, but the possibility of toxic substances is not ruled out.

2.2.2.5.5 Ichthyoplankton The families Cyprinidae, Centrarchidae, and Percidae were represented by the largest number of species captured in the Tittabawassee River with five, four, and three species collected, respectively. The larval data for cyprinids, centrarchids, emerald shiner, yellow perch, black crappie and white sucker were statistically analyzed by an analysis of variance. Factors which were tested included date sampled, time period of sampling, collection gear, and station location.

The results of the analysis of variance performed on Cyprinidae showed

~

significant differences-in abundance due to date sampled, gear, and station.

Centrarchid abundance was significantly different by date, period sampled (day or night), gear used, and a gear x period interaction. Analysis ot black crappie data revealed a significant effect on catch due to date and period sampled. Emerald shiner and white sucker abundances showed no significant effect due to main factors or interactions. Yellow perch data analysis showed

A total of 11,704--fishes representing Il families and 41 species were collected by electrofishing, seiningc arid trap netting from the Tittabawassee River in the~ vicinity of the Consumers Power Midland Plant-in 1979.

The. fish community is dominated by warswater species, primarily of the families Cyprinidae and Centrarchidae. Electrofishing was the most successful collection technique, followed by seining and trap netting. Eight selected species of interest.were analyzed by a log transformed split plot analysis of variance:for each collection' gear to define _ changes at the species level over space and time.

n An analysis of community structure was performed using four acasures of

, diversity: the number of taxa, the number of individuals, the evenness of' distribution-of individuals among.the taxa, and a Shannon-Weaver diversity

statistic (H'). Species diversity between transects, sampling dates, and gear types.showed no consistent trends'. However, electrofishing samples had generally higher diversity values.than other gear types and September and October 1 collections. tended to have. higher diversity values. It would appear i

O 2.2.2.5.7 Water Quality Comparison of water quality program results with the State of Michigan Water Quality Standards were not made because the standards were undergoing revisions. In general, water quality was sufficient to support biological communities.

Two trends are evident in the water quality data. The first is the influence that Lingle Drain exerts on Station D3 (immediately downstream of Lingle Drain), especially during icw flow periods when Station D 3is isolated from the rest of the river by a large sandbar. There is no indication that this sandbar will disappear in the future; therefore, the influence of Lingle Drain on Station D3 can be expected to recur as long as the sandbar is present. The second trend is the influence or Dow discharge (downstream of the plant intake) on sampling stations (Transects B, C, and D). Flow characteristics of the river seem to determine which stations are affected. During periods of 11 low flow, shoreline and midstream sampling stations are influenced by Dow's discharge. However, as flow increases, the " plume" appears to hug the shoreline and does not influence midstream areas.

2.2.2.5.8 Bottom Sediments Comparison of the data indicates that silver, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, and nickel were fcund in low concentrations at all stations except A upstream t

of the plant anc generally decreased in value between June and October. Copper, zinc, and total organic carbon (TOC) concentrations increased between sampling dates while lead values remained fairly constant between June and October.

One parameter, manganese, exhibited wide variations between sampling dates.

The October manganese concentrations are abnormally high and should be l

d interpreted cautiously, although no procedural or computational errors were detected during the investigation.

The particle l size distribution data' indicate that the bottom sediments were

. composed mainly of larger fractionsi medium sand to gravel,-with medium sand dominating 73% of all samples and silt and clay comprising less than 10%,- by weight, of most samples. These_ larger grain sizes necessarily reduce the-available area for absorption by the various ions. This helps explain the low.

values of certain parameters'and reinforces the caution with which the manganese levels _should be viewed. Seasonal redistribution of sediment composition was 'noted, but deeper. water stations exhibited fewer seasonal changes than the shallower stations. Organic content has been shown to be inversely:related to grain size,'thus the observed low TOC recorded in the river sediments is consistent with the coarse grained substrate found there.

O 2.2.2.S.10 Fish Migration.

The impingement of high numbers of young-of-the-year yellow perch during the fall 1978 portion of the filling of the Midland Plant cooling pond raised questions regarding the origin of the yellow perch involved. More precisely, information was required to determine whether this was a one-year phenomenon 11 resulting from the 1978 Sanford Lake drawdown or an expected annual occurrence. In addition, the study attempted to determine if the yellow perch were the progeny of a residential population or the result of the Laflux of young-of-the-year individuals from other spawning areas such as Sanford Lake or Saginaw Bay. The conclusions of the study suggest that high impingement rates of yellow perch can be expected during the fall season.

The unloading associated with the retreat of glacial ice is apparently responsible for crustal uplift in the northeastern United States and Canada.

Correlations of glacial lake shorelines, in conjunction with radiocarbon dating, indicate 7 hat rebound began at a fairly rapid rate with the greatest adjustment occurring from 8,000 to 4,500 years ago. Since that time, uplift has been slight. Recent studies indicate that Michigan is experiencing a vertical movement upward ranging from 1 foot (30 cm) per 100 years in the northern portion of the State to static conditions in the southern portion.

In the Plant area at a rate of rise of 0.25 foot (7.5 cm) per 100 years is estimated.

was initiated in October 1978. .Two previously. identified archeological significant sites which contain historic and'prehis' toric artifacts were 6 identified during the survey and are discussed in the report, Archeological and Historical Investigations of- the Floodplain Area, hidland Plant Site, Midland, Michigan. This report describing the results was. submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on February 8, 1979.

2.6.3 Transmissica Line Right-of-Way Archeological Features Appendix 2.6C a copy of the archeologicaI survey of the transmission line v

) 3 right-of-way associated with the-Midland Plant. A detailed plan for the mitigation or avoidance of the identified archeological sites that could be disturbed by the construction and operation of the Plant's associated 4 l transmission facilities is presented in Section 4.2.2.

In 1979, the nine archeological sites that cor id not be avoided during transmission line construction were mitigated by recovery of materials to preserve the sites on paper. The recovered cultural material of the sites and recorded details of its context-are preserved for future study. Site 20SA318 11 -is an Early Archaic (seventh or eighth millenium BC, based on projectile points), low intensity campsite which could have been recurrently occupied during the cold season. Hunting, butchering, wood and plant processing and cooking were probable activities. Similarly, site 20SA108 is an Early Archaic

~ 1ow intensity campsite which could have been recurrently ' occupied during the warm' season.'(based on different patterns'of lithic technology and fire cracked REVISION 11' - SEPTEMBER 1980 2.6-5

0' rock use). Similar activities probably occurred at this site. The only other possible Early Archaic site is 20SA337 which was perhaps a kill and butchering station for large game and was used for a very short curation. Insufficient data were recovered from 20MD394 to date the occupation, but the consultant speculates that an Archaic component was destroyed by sand removal. Site 20SA325 is of Late Archaic age (about 1900 BC) and was probably a warm season camp. A Woodland component, probably early Late Woodland, is (AD 600-800) also present. Nearby site 20SA326 may represent a contemporary single episode Late Archaic eccupation. A well known local site, 20MD116, also represents a warm season encampment of the early Late Archaic. This site additionally has a pre-Civil War historic component (domestic household). Site 20SA322 is 11 predominantly a Late Archaic site with a minor Late Woodland component (occupied 1500 BC - AD 1000). The site was likely used for brief encampments during the warm season. The last site, 20SA329, is totally historic and was probably a rural farm homestead from about 1880-1920.

The University of Michigan, Museum of Anthropology, report on this arche-ological mitigation (Report of Archaeological Mitigarion and Avoidance on a ConsuLers Power Comoany Right of Vay in Saginaw and Midland Counties, Michigan, February 18, 1980) has been provided to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

The mitigation of these nine sites on the transmission line right-of-way has preserved these cultural resources on paper, as in the University's report, in the site file and field notes, and in the curated cultural material recovered during field work. These materials preserve the sites for future generations of students and for further study as changing theoretical interests require.

'either of these sites. The prehistoric site represented a small, probably diffuse, prehistoric site likely~ occupied for a rather short time for specialized purposes, possibly hunting. Six pieces of fire.-cracked rock and seven chert spalls were recovered. Even though it was impossible to estimate its period of occupation ~or importance, the archeological consultant

10. recommended avoidance'or mitigation. However, when the site was revisited in .j July 1979,:the portion of the-sandy. ridge containing the site had been

A 11 document changes in -ambient levels that may have occurred in the intervening 1

years due to construction of the Plant and due to changes in industrial -

operations on adjacent land. This survey in will be more comprehensive in that it will include ' permanent magnetic tape recordings of samples obtained.

11- Methodology used in the 1973' survey as well as that to be used in the future ambient survey is detailed in Section 6.1.3. A Plant map of the site showing the- 13 test points sampled in 1973 is presented in Figure 2.7-1. "A" weighted

\ and/or octave band measurements were taken at three different times over a 24-hour. period: 1630-1920 hours,-2100-2300 hours, and 0300-0500 hours.

Extraneous noise sources were identified when possible and noted along with

- local weather conditions. Measurements were confined to the immediate area of the Plant and its property lines due to the industrial nature of the area.

Figure 2.7-2 summarizes the "A" weighted noise levels during each measurement perica. A graphical comparison of octave band levels at tuo points-for the 1630- to 1920-hour period is' presented in Figure 2.7-3. Test Point 11 was on the south property line of the site.over one mile (1600 meters) from Test Point 2_ near the Plant' location.'

3.3 PIANT WATER USE The sources, uses, and discharges of water for Midland Units 1 and 2 are shown on Figure 3.3-1 and quantified in Tables 3.3-1 aad 3.3-2.

- Ground water is not intended or planned to be utilized as a source of water during Plant operation.

3.3.1- Process Vater All water for use as process water is provided as follows:

a. The-Dow Chemical Company provides feedwater to the evaporators in the process staam system. The.stsam thus produced is returned to The Dow Chemical Company for use in their process systems.
b. Makeup for the Midland Plant demineralizer system will be taken from either of two sources. The Dow Chemical Company _ demineralized water 10 supplied by Dow as a portion of the makeup supply to the evaporators can be used as makeup to the demineralizer system or the Plant has the option of using the Midland Muncipal Water District supply. Normally, 11 the Plant will use the Midland municipal water as the preferred supply with Dow domineralized water as backup.

2 l It is estis ' :d that on an-annual basis the water use rate from the city water 8 l system will average approximately 50 million gallons per year over the life'of 2_ l the Plant.

O The activated carbon filter removes residual chlorine from the Midland municipal water. No significant accumulation of suspended solids is expected since the Midland municipal water is clarified and filtered prior to delivery to the Plant. The activated carbon filters are h-ckwashed as necessary to condition the bed. This creates a maximum of 4,700 galloas (17.8 k1) of

~

8 backwash water per day assuming each filter is backwashed once per day. This backwash water is routed to the evaporator building neutralization sump.

Each makeup demineralizer train is designed to produce 253,350 gallons (959 kl) of demineralized water between regenerations. During normal operation one train is in service, and the other train is either in regeneration or on standby. Both trains, however, may be used during periods of high water demand.

The cation resins are regenerated with a sulfuric acid solution and the anion resins with a sodium hydroxide solution. All backwash, rinse, and chemical regenerant wastes from the makeup demineralizers are routed to the makeup evaporator neutralizing sump where the pH is adjusted as required to a range within 6.5 and 9.5 by addition of sulfuric acid or sodium hydroxide. Waste characteristics and volumes for the carbon filters and ion exchange trains are ,

shown in Table 3.6-2.

3.6.1.2 Condensate Polishers The high purity water required for operation of the once-through steam generators is maintained by the use of ammonia, hydrazine and full flow l condensate polishing ion exchangers. The condensate polishers remove corrosion products and other impurities from the steam generator feedwater.

'(y 3.7.2 Liquid Effluents 3.7.2.1 Laundry Waste The' laundry waste consists of personnel decontamination solutions, emergency shower water, and liquid waste generated from washing clothing which is potentially contaminated.with radioactive particulates. This waste contains detergents and is not processed through demineralizers or evaporators, but is filtered for gross solids removal and collected in the laundry drain tank where the radioactivity level is monitored. Under normal conditions, laundry waste does not require treatment for radioactive contamination. From this

~

drain tank the waste is filtered again for fine solids removal and released through the discharge structure to the Tittabawassee River. If the

( ) radioactivity level exceeds discharge limits, the waste will be diverted to the liquid waste system evaporator for processing as discussed in Section 3.5.2.

The~ quantity of laundry waste for the Midland Plant is eatimated at a daily- I output of between 450 and 600 gallons. A non-phosphate synthetic detergent is used that allows the Plant to meet the NPDES Permit requirements for l discharges to the Tittabawassee River.

Precipitation falling on areas which may be contaminated by oil is collected and treated in the oily waste system (refer to Section 3.6).

3.7.2.3 Sanitarv Vaste The sanitary waste collection system provides for sewage collection and the 11 conveyance of these wastes and the blowdown and continuous sample flow from the process steam evaporators to The Dow Chemical Company Waste Treatment Plant. The system consists of a gravity sewer which collects the effluent 11 from all building sanitary plumbing systems. The sewage, evaporator blowdown and continuous sample flow are pumped by a sewage lift station to Dow via force main.

Administrative control, design, and restricted access to contaminated areas are provided to prevent radioactive materials from entering the domestic sanitary waste water collection system.

The maximum expected load during Plant operation is based on a population of 300 at 50 gallons per capita per day or 15,000 gallons per day.

The Dew treatment facility consists of storage equalization, and tertiary treatment under continuous licensed supervision. The tertiary treatment includes preliminary treatment through trickling filters followed by two-stage activated sludge and final sedimentation.

O The Tittabawassee to Kenowa/Thetford line is located in an existing corridor that was purchased prior to 1972. Double circuit towers, shown on Figure 3.9-9, were utilized. The corridor, excluding the wider, I mile (1.6 km) long exit at Tittabawassee, will accommodate two 345 kV tower lines. The first 8.0 miles (12.9 km) south from the Tittabawassee exit also accommodates two 138 kV tower lines and the nevt 7.6 miles (12.2 km) acccmmodates one 138 kV tower line. A 138 kV line was built in the north 8.0 miles (12.9 km) of the corridor in 1972. The 345 kV line is located 100 feet (30.5 m) east of the existing 138 kV line. The relative location of lines and the width of the corridor are indicated on Figures 3.9-2 and 3.9-3A through 3.9-3H.

The transmission line crosses numerous drains and creeks in addition to the Tittabawassee River and both forks of the Bad River. The Tittabawassee flood plain in the area of the proposed river crossing is approximately 0.5 mile  %

(0.8 km) wide. Two structures are located in the low area northerly of the river with one of the towers placed within 200 feet (61 m) of the riverbank to provide clearance enough to allow riverbank vegetation to remain undisturbed.

The tower on the southerly side of the crossing is placed at the top of an embankment to allow all except the largest trees to r<. main. Other river and creek banks are left undisturbed except for the removal of larger trees. The majority of the land along the route is cultivated. Wooded areas are generally a composite of immature trees, saplings and shrubs. Nearly 60% of the route lies along property lines.

Transmission lines associated with the Midland Nuclear Plant construction consist of two 345 kV lines running 2.3 miles (3.7 km) to Tittabawassee Substation and one 345 kV line running 27.5 miles (44.2 km) from Tittabawassee Substation to interconnect with the existing Kenowa-Thetford 345 kV line. The line route between the Plant and the substation crosses flat land identified as industrial or wasteland. The 27.5-mile (44.2 km) section of line running south out of the substation crosses farmlands mixed with occasional woodlots.

Another line associated with the project is a 138 kV start-up line running south along the east side of the cooling pond and east along the north side of Gordonville Road. This line crosses the Tittabawassee River and Saginaw Road approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) south of the 345 kV line crossings and then

)

continues northeast into Tittabawassee Substation. The clearing at the river is for construction access with a majority of the right-of-way selectively cleared to preserve low growing species. There is an ample amount of roadside trees along Saginaw Road to obstruct views to the line at the crossing location. l l

, Routing of the 138 kV start-up line and the two 345 kV lines judiciously utilizes existing vegetation. An insignificant amount of clearing is required between the Midland Plant and Tittabawassee Substation. The Tittabawassee to Kenowa-Thetford 345 kV line requires clearing only 110.9 acres (45 ha) of scattered fencerows and woodlots at a width of 142 feet (43.3 m). Additional 1 trees outside the cleared right-of-way which endanger the line are selectively removed, n

The most visually sensitive area affected by new transmission lines is the O

northern one-third of the Tittabawassee to Kenewa-Thetford right-of-way(l) .

In this area, the flat terrain is nearly lacking of arborescent vegetation.

Agriculture in this area is practiced up to roadsides and ditch banks. The predominance of row crops also has eliminated fencerows and the vegetation that usually is present along fencerows. Although the transmission towers are exposed for long distances, the rural nature of the surrounding area reduces the effects of this exposure.

The remaining portion of the Tittabawassee to Kenowa-Thetford 345 kV line route has a moderate sensitivity. In some areas the'line will be screened by existing woodlots and stream valleys.

Design, routing, construction and maintenance of these transmission lines is done in accordance with Environmental Criteria for Electric Transmission Systems (2) developed by the US Departments of Interior and Agriculture, and Guidelines for the Protection of Natural, Historic, Scenic and Recreational Values in the Design and Location of Rights-of-Way and Transmission Facilities (3) published by the Federal Pcwer Commission. In addition, the Applicant has engaged landscape architects to develop guidelines (4) for minimizing impact of transmission lines and facilities on aesthetic values. These criteria have been applied in design of the transmission lines from the Midland Plant to the substation, and from the substation to the Kenowa-Thetford line.

11 Approval of the Corps of Engineers was obtained for erecting the transmission lines across the Tittabawassee River, Bad River and Beaver Creek.

Clearing Techn(ques and Changes to Physical and Biological Processes i

Construction clearing practices of selective cutting, keeping the width of the  !

i cleared strip to a minimum, clearing to a variable width within spans and l preservation of existing small trees and shrubs are followed when possible to l l

reduce visual impact. Merchantable timber is salvaged and slash windrowed or j disposed of. Windrowing provides habitat for many species of birds and  !

4 mammals and is the method accepted by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.

I l

Construction activities along the transmission line route will require removal of all trees and brush to at least 45 feet (13.6 m) on either side of the 4

tower center line. Additional trees tall enough to endanger the reliability of the operating line will be removed up to 115 feet (34.7 m) from the tower i

j center line. Clearing activities began on September 10, 1979 on the southern i

end of the right-of-way. This date coincided with comp 1'etion of field work 1

f for the ecological survey on this segment of the right-of-way. The ecological i

survey for the entire right-of-way, which was completed on September 14, 1979, )

1 l revealed no threatened or endangered species or other significant impediments 2

10 to construction. Clearing activities were completed by November 15, 1979.

Clearing crews were transported in small pickup trucks. Small crawler type 1

terrain.

The cleared wooded areas are changed structurally and compositionally from areas supporting at least three vegetative strata and wildlife nesting areas to areas of one or two vegetative. strata. While floral and faunal species requiring a forest habitat in this stage of succession have been negatively 10 impacted, floral and faunal species favoring earlier successional stages will be benefitted. Important game species such as deer, rabbits, and grouse should benefit from the erection and maintenance of this right-of-way.

Topographical and hydrolog. cal changes are minimal due to the little relief in this area. Hence, disrupt: 2n of drainage patterns or topographical features by line construction has a negligible effect on biological processes.

4.2.2 Erecting Towers and Stringing Conductors Construction of towers ar.d stringing conductors cause minor disruption to the enviretment. At each tower, work activities travel across the shortest and most practical access roads. Work activites which impact the right-of-way for 4 the Tittabawassee to Kenewa/Thetford transmission line follow based, on the current construction schedule.

tower legs. A stump-free access road to each tangent tower site will be .

required for the front-end dump, 12-1/2 yard concrete trucks to supply concrete for the pier type foundations. A tracked front-end loader and a soil 4 compactor will be used at each angle tower to excavate and cover the 12-15 foot square (3.7-4.6 m) reinforced concrete pads for the four tower anchors.

A 15-man crew transported by light t. rucks will be used at each tower site. l I

With allewance for inclement weather and unusual access problems, foundation 10l work will progress ahead of tower erection crews to a scheduled completion date of August 1983.

11 Tower steel delivery is scheduled to begin by August 1982 by 10-ton multi-wheeled trucks from the railhead to the tower sites and will continue as 10 l required, except for the period 'when spring, load restricticas are placed on roads. Approximately 2,200 tons of tower steel or an average of 15 tons per 4 tower will be required. Sorting and partial assembly of tower steel will be 10 done by a 15-man crew. A 70-tor., self propelled, tracked crane, supported by a 12-man crew, is scheduled for delivery to start erection of towers on

'll completed foundations by November 1982. Tower erection is scheduled for completion by May 1983.

Conductor reels are usually placed at four-mile intervals with tensioner equipment located at t'.e midpoint between them. Conductor stringing operations start approximately one month after tower erection starts. A light 4 caterpillar tractor will be used to pull the lead line along the approximate tower center line between the conductor reels and the tensioner.

Project completion is scheduled for August 1, 1983. Two weeks are allowed for 10 l testing of substation equipment prior to the service date. Site cleanup, 11 l grounding and fence restoration will be completed before October 1,1983.

The Tittabawassee to Kenawa/Thetford 345 kV line route crosses 14 agricultural drainage ditches and 5 streams (l). Most of the drainage ditches are small and lack arborescent vegetation; therefore, transmission line construction does not create much impact. Construction equipment generally uses existing roads and culverts in crossing ditches to prevent erosion and siltation.

All stream and river crossings will be accomplished in accordance with 10 specifications that are conditions for permit approvals by the Michigan Department of Natural Re3ot.rces under the Inland Lakes and Streams Act, Act 346 of Public Acts of 1972 and br the Cor ; of Engineers under Section 404 of 11 l the Federal Water Pollution Control ! t (PL 92-500 as amended).

The 25 archeological / historic sites reporten (Appendix 2.6C) along the Tittabawassee to Kenewa/Thetford 345 kV transaission line route can, in general, be avoided and left intact on the right-of-way. An avoidance and 4 mitigation plan was finalx2ed at a Consumers Power meeting with Dr Doreen Ozker, Archeologist for the Great Lakes Museum of Anthropology, University of Michigan, and Dr John Halsey, State Archeologist, on November 29, 1978. This i

plan is summarized on Table 4.2-1.

Eleven of the archeological sites can be avoided because their locations are such that they 4 can be posted to direct construction activities around them.

10 l Nina of the archeological sites required mitigation because they conflicted 4 l with line construction plans for structure location or access along the right-10 of-way. Phase I field reconnaissance of all these archeological sites was conducted in the spring of 1979. This phase of archeological mitigation 11 l involved plowing, surface collection of artifacts and shovel probing to detarmine whether the site was significant enough to require detailed Phase II

(/ mitigation. Phase I reconnaissance was generally restricted to the part of 10 the right-of-way impacted by construction activities. If the results were negative, that area was then cleared for unrestricted construction activity. I Phase II excavation, conducted in the spring of 1979, involved plotting the concentrations of artifacts recovered in Phase I, analysis of their significance, division of the site into a grid for controlled surface collection, and further excavation to the archeological horizon in areas that j 11 were productive in Phase I. Phase III analysis involved documentation, interpretation and reporting ot the results of the mitigation activities. As indicated in Section 2.6.3, a report has been provided to the NRC on the findings of this analysis.

Phase II excavation also occurred at other sites after the Phase I field reconnaissance. Following archeological fieldwork completed in July 1979, 10 sites listed for mitigation were clear for unrestricted construction activity, pending the September completion of the concurrent ecological study discussed in Section 4.2.1.

4.2.3 Access and Service Roads During construction, access to the right-of-way generally is along established 10 l farm lanes and temporary drives near the line. New access roads to the right-of-way are constructed only when absolutely necessary. New roads and temporary drives are returned to their original use upon complet. ion of construction.

4.2.4 Erosion Due to Transmission Line Construction Soil erosion is controlled in compliance with Michigan Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Act (5). Temporary measures are implemented during construction to eliminate soil erosion associated with construction activittes and the use of heavy equipment. Upon completion of construction, disturbed areas are regraded and per=anent erosion control measures are administered to preserve the water quality of the watershed.

Construction activities on agricultural lands subject these areas to some wind erosion. Agriculture is extensively practiced close to roads, ditches and streams, leaving vast areas devoid of windireaks and shelterbeits. During construction, this condition exists for o te growing season. Following construction, the land again is available for agricultural practices. If

6.1.3.3 Precoerational Noise Survey

- During May of 1973, an environmental sound survey was conducted in the area of the Midland Plant and surrounding property. The survey provided baseline environmental noise levels for the area surrounding the Plant prior to construction such that the noise impact of construction and operation could be determined. The baseline data collected in this survey are presented in _

Section 2.7.

i.

11l Another survey will be conducted in the yer.r prior to ccamercial operation, when most Plant construction is complete, following the same procedures and techniques as used in the 1973 survey. At that time, any additional ambient

~

noise sources, such as those from The Dow Chemical Company complex, the major

) source of noise in the 1973 survey, can be identified.

6.1.3.3.1 Instrumentation The following equipment was used in the May 1973 ambient sound level survey of the Midland Plant site:

a. General Radio Model 1558-BP Octave Band Analyzer
b. General Radio Mcdel 1560-P6 1-Inch Ceramic Microphone
c. General Radio Model 1560 - P40 Microphone Preamplifier

6.1.3.3.2 Calibration The system was calibrated prior to each measurament period to ensure consistent and accurate measurements. . Battery condition was monitored and i 11 batteries replaced when necessary. These procedures will be followed in all i future sound level surveys at the site.

6.1.3.3.3 Methodology of Data Collection During the May 1973 environmental sound survey, "A" weighted and/or octave band measurements were taken at 13 locations in the area of the Midland Plant structures and the perimeter of the Plant property boundary. Measurements

! were taken at the nearest residence as well as along the access roads to the

\'j 24-hour period; (1) the first period (1630 to 1930 hr) encompassed the highest ambient. noise time period in the general vicinity of the Plant due to the elevated levels of traffic noise on adjacent roads; (2) the second period i

(2100 to 2300 hr) was chosen as typical of those hours when the majority of persons residing near the Plant would be active within their homes and levels

, of ambient sources other than the Midland Plant would be minimal; (3) the third period (0300 to 0500 hr) represented the extreme condition when i

virtually all community noise should be at its lowest value. The number and location of sampling points and the sampling periods were chosen to provide an accurate measure of existing ambient levels. Sound level measurements were taken with the sound level meter in the slow-response position. Each

measurement represents a 15-second e"erage of the sound level meter J

indication. During each measurement, weather data and general traffic n,g_, conditions were observed and recorded. A B&K Windscreen.was always used on REVISION 11 - SEPTEMBER 1980 6.1-21

11 Essentially the same procedure will be followed in the ambient survey per-formed just prior to ecmmercial operation with the exception that a number of measurement points will be added to the existing 13, -in the area north of the Plant extending into The Dow Chemical Company complex, and beyond the ?lant -

property lines to the south and west to include the residential areas nearest to the Plant.

In addition, the amount of data taken at each measurement point will be expanded by recording a sample of the ambient sound level and subsequently analyzing this sample on a real-time analyzer. Not only will this provide a permanent record of the data, but will allow more meaningful comparisons to be made between data points and between preoperational and postoperational s

levels. Due to the industrial nature of the rea directly north and east of the Midland Plant, it is also expected that the noise impact of the Midland Plant will be difficult to quantify without a spectral analysis of the sound levels at these points. The recording and real-time analysis of these measurements will greatly enhance the accuracy and reliability of the data.

major conclusions of these investigations are presented in Section 2.5. These l

programs are summarized in the following sections.

6.1.4.1.1 Exoloration Programs l

Power Block Aret. Borings

, A total of 117 borings ranging up to 432 feet in depth and 22 probes were performed in the. power block area between 1956 and 1974. Two of the borings passed through the glacial deposits and penetrated into rock. Boring I was drilled about 10 feet into rock, and Boring 1A was drilled about 75 feet into rock. ,

() Twenty-two probes ranging in depth from 10 to 45 feet were also performed in

] chis area by truck-mounted rotary continuous flight auger equipment. The soil cuttings from the augers were used to identify soil types for the log of the soil profile.

Dike Perimeter Area Borings l

/ total of 167 borings are attributable to exploratory work for the dike system. Sixty-one of the borings were done for site exploration and the rest were subsequently drilled in conjunction with dike construction. The borings 4

ranged in depth from 3.5 to 70 feet.

O Forty-nine borings were drilled at various locations within the cooling pond area to determine a source of borrow material. They ranged in depth from 5 to 60 feet.

Borings for Structures Outside Power Block Area Additional exploration was conducted for three structures away from the main Plant area. Nine explora'cory borings were drilled at the railroad bridge site and one in the embankment area. These ranged in depth between 25 and 70 feet.

A total of eight borings with depths ranging from 60 to 75 feet were made in the vicinity of the Bullock Creek bridge. Sixteen borings ranging in depth between 9 and 60 feet were made in the vicinity of the spillway through the east leg of the dike.

6.1.4.1.2 Soil and Rock Sampling Methoda No preoperational studies have been conducted to determine the impact of construction activities on productivity of soils; however, the surface soil types that are found on the site have been discussed in the Ecological Survey of the Midland Site (10) ,

Physical properties of the glacial surficial materials were determined. Both dist"rbed and undisturbed soil samples were taken. The disturbed samples were of three types: those from the standard penetration test sampler, bulk samples from auger cuttings, and wash samples from the rotary wash drilling process. The undisturbed samples were obtained by using Dames and Moore soil samplers or coriag methods.

6.1.4.1.3 Subsidence Monitoring Program The subsidence benchmark program is designed to monitor any subsidence of the 2lgroundsurfacewhichcouldoccuradjacenttothePlantduetosaltmining.

The program is considered as precautionary because no actual subsidence is anticipated as a result of the salt mining. l Two studies, one of which includes 10 years of tround surface monitoring data, l prepared by independent engineering consulting firms and referenced in Section 2.5 of this report, conclude there will be no surficial effects due to salt removal from the rock strata located over 4,100 feet beneath the ground

[/)

surface. Since the issuance of these reports, a number of previously active I wells used in the subsidence analysis have either been plugged or are now inactive. In fact, within a one-mile radius of the power block area, there 11l are no active salt solution mining wells (see Table 2.5-1 and Figure 2.5-5).

, One brine removal well is still in service but it is over 2,000 feet southwest of the containment buildings.

The subsidence monitor'r,, system consists of 25 shallow benchmarks anchored in 2 till at a depth of 15 to 60 feet (4.5 to 18 m) below the ground surface and 2 deep benchmarks anchored in rock 320 and 413 feet (98 and 126 m) belcw the ground. Figure 6.1-8 shows the location and design of these benchmarks.

First order surveys will be made at least annually for the operational life of the Plant to detect any subsidence near the Plant.

6.1.4.2 Land-Use and Demographic Surveys Land-use information and data were obtained by the Applicant's staff from field surveys of the area surrounding the Midland Plant site, and from the Environmental Inventory (11) .

Recent aerial photographs were used to locate the nearest residence in each of the 16 sectors. Consumers Power Company's Electrical Service Distribution maps were used to verify these residences. The nearest vegetable gardens were assumed to be lv ated at the nearest residences. Field surveys of the area within 5 miles of the Midlac4 Plant consisted of driving all the public roads to physically locate the milking cows, milking goats and also to verify the nearest residences.

Methods for collection and analysis of demographic data are discussed in Section 2.1.2.

6.1.4.3 Ecological Parameters The 1971 terrestrial ecological survey (10) that was conducted by Michigan State University personnel is the only terrestrial ecological survey that has been cespleted on the Midland Plant site. The report described and discussed 3 relationships between the vegetation and wildlife that existed on the cite prior to and after preliminary Plant site preparation activities. Most of the vegetation and wildlife habitat on the 1235-acre Plant site have been either '

eliminated or altered as a result of construction activities.

O Bases This operational noise survey is for verification of the predicted noise impact of those features of the Midland Plant considered to produce significant noise levels.

Although several noise criteria have been published by various agencies (6,7,8),

they are not particularly adaptable to sampling techniques as outlined in this survey program. Each crii..ia differs sufficieu ly from the others to prevent a common level criteria to be established. Most methods are based on annoyance limits and are, therefore, very subjective. Noise levels that are considered safety hazards (9} greatly exceed any community noise level resulting from operation of the Midland Plant.

The winter and summer seasons chosen for the survey represent the best and worst case conditions, respectively, due to higher sensitivity of the general population to outdoor noises during the summer months and vice versa.

11] As many test points as possible coincide with those used in the preoperational ambient survey such that meaningful comparisons can be made to determine what .

envirenmental impact is attributed to Plant operation. In addition, instrn-11 menta.. ion used is, as much as practical, the same as that used in the preoperational ambient survey.

6.2A-3.1.2 Biotic Surveillance 6.2A-3.1.2.1 Aquatic Surveys Biotic aspects of aquatic environments are surveyed in accordance with the NPDES Permit which specifies effluent and instream monitoring requirements REVISION 11.- SEPTEMBER 1980 6.2A-3-8

Section 2.6.1. These investigations are also part of the archeological 5 background of the report noted above.

6.3.7 Noise Programs At the present time, the only other ' arty p conducting any sound level surveys in the vicinity of the Midland Plant is The Dow Chemical Company. Using field measurement techniques, these surveys are done occasionally around the perimeter of The Dow Che=ical complex by the environmental quality control group and are intended for informational purposes only. Past surveys by Dow Chemical did not include the southern property along the Tittabawassee River.

Therefore, no data have been obtained for the areas immediately adjacent to ex the Midland Plant. The nearest data point is on Saginaw Road approximately k l 4,000 feet (1,219 m) east of the Midland Plant. This point and others are 11 within the area that Consumers Power Company' personnel will survey prior to commercial operation of the Mb' land Plant. All survey data will be made available to 1:oth companies and correlation will be done upon completion of 11l the preoperational ambient survey which is described in detail in Section 6.1.3.1.

6.3.8 Radiological Programs There are no public agencies, currently known to the Applicant, conducting any radiological environmental monitoring programs in the vicinity of the Plant. l The Michigan Department of Public Health does plan to conduct an environmental monitoring program in the vicinity of the Plant similar to those currently conducted by that agency at operating reactors within the State (12,13),

'11l A limited amount of radiological data are available en rae Lake Huron water (Whitestone Point) and Midland municipal water. Samples are composites c f daily (Monday through Friday) grab samples. Analyses were performed by three independent laboratories over a one-year period. Gross beta and tritium i 11l results are provided in Table 6.4-1. Monthly composites of the weekly samples were analyzed for gamma emitting isotopes. Within the detection limits (approximately 10 pCi/1) no gamma activity was observed in any of the samples.

The preoperational environmental radiological monitoring program as described in Section 6.1.5 started in November 1978. The schedule for all phases of the 11 preoperational program is presented in Table 6.1-8. The first full calendar year of data are presented in Table 6.4-2.

MIDLAND 1&2-ER(OLS) 8 ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL EFFECTS OF PLANT CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION 8.1 BENEFITS FROM THE FACILITY 8.1.1 Expected Annual Average Generation The Midland Station is designed as a dual-purpose plant to provide electrical energy to the customers of Consumers Power and process steam to The Dow Chem-ical Company. The electrical energy output will vary from 1,263 MW (net) at design up to 1,344 MW (net) depending on the process steam outflow to Dow. As such, the estimated net average annual generation will range from 7.7 billion to 8.2 billion kilowatthours, based on a 70 percent capacity factor.

8.1.2 Excected Use of Generated Electricity i

Because the output of Midland Units 1 and 2 is transmitted by the total power i

11 network of Consumers Power's transmission and distribution system, it must be l

assumed that the sales to a particular customer class are in the sa=e pro- i 1

portion as that customer class proportion of total system usage. The sales forecast for each customer class is listed for the period 1984 through 1988 I and for 1993 in Table 8.1-1.

'The average electric customer rate is estimated to be 7.5 cents per kilo-watthour which includes generation, transmission and distribution costs for all of Consumers Power customers in 1984 Over Midland's plant life, electric customers' rates are estimated to increase at an average annual rate of 8.24 percent per year.

n MIDLAND 1&2 FR(OLS)

O 11 worth revenues in 1984 dollars are estimated to be $10.8 billion over the 34-year life of the plant.

8.1.3 Process Steam Sales Process steam sales to The Dow Chemical Company will generate revenues for the lli 35-year period of the current contract. Based on the expected hours of process steam availability, 38,839 billion Btus per year will be converted to process steam for sale to Dow. The Midland Plant Units 1 and 2 will supply from 1.4 to 4.05 million pounds per hour of process steam which equals 14,121 3 to 40,962 billion Btus per year at a 100*. capacity factor.

The steam sales provisions of the 1978 Dow-Consumers general agreement are proprietary information.

8.1.* Income and Pronerty Taxes 7 l Income and property taxes expected to flow to Federal, State, and local 11l governments because of the Midland Plant are estimated to be $166 million per 7 l year. The present worth of this payment stream over the 34-year economic life 11 is $1,382 million. The effect on taxes of decommissioning and restoration are not reflected in these data.

8.1.5 Direct Socioeconomic Benefits The operation of the Midland Plant provides certain direct and indirect economic benefits to the Midland region. A portion of the direct benefits originates with the operating personnel employed at the Plant. Present plans O

The presentation of the direct benefits associated with the operating personnel is based on a study (5) prepared for the US Chamber of Commerce.

This study measures the impact of 100 manufacturing and nonmanufacturing employee entering a region. Using this information, the following effects are projected for the Midland region:

1,350 more peopl, 380 more families 440 more schoolchildren 11 and the following resultant benefits (1984 dollars) are projected for the Midland region:

$7,973,000 more annual personal income (a)

O

$3,612,000 more annual retail sales

$4,398,000 more bank deposits The increased number of families will not create any major lasting i= pact on housing or real estate values in the area. The additien31 schoolchildren should be easily absorbed within the region without the need for new facilities. The increased personal income will help to provide indirect benefits within the region.

11 (a) Total annual salary for Midland Plant staff in 1984 is estimated to be approximately $16,000,000 in 1984 dollars. The retail sales and bank deposits may be correspondingly higher.

O The ice-free pond may attract a resident population of waterfowl, shore birds and marsh birds. Any increase in the number of these birds would improve the natural and aesthetic amenities of this generally industrialized area.

The heated discharge from cooling pond blowdown to the Tittabawassee River may improve sport fishing in the river during the colder months of the year.

The river intake structure, riprap along the river shore, and river channelization near the intake structure will provide improved shelter and feeding habitat for fishes in the vicinity.

In addition, the atmospheric emissions from the existing fossil-fueled units of Dow Chemical Company will be greatly reduced and eventually cease.

This amount includes anticipated escalation in labor and material over the period of construction as well as interest on investment over the same period.

8.2.3 Fuel Costs Fuel costs associated with the production of electrical and steam energy over the 34-year economic life of the Plant will not vary with the process steam outflow to The Dow Chemical Company. Based on two power only units, the 11 levelized annual cost is currently estimated to be approximately 18.4 mills per kilowatthour. The present worth in 1984 dollars of coat of fuel associated with the production of electrical energy is estimated to be

$1,103.0 million.

QUESTION 2 Assume CPS does operate but does not sell any electricity to Dow Chemical in the 1980's. Under this scenario, answer questions la., Ib.,, and Ic.

i 2 RESPONSE

Dow Chemical Company is presently a customer of Consumers Power Company and '

has, in fact, contracted to purchase power from the Company in the future.

Making the unrealistic and purely hypothetical assumption that these purchases would not occur, the replacement powar cost components identified in the 11 responses to Questions la and Ic might be reduced by 4%. Note that the 1

  • response to Question ib would be unchanged.

The distribution of sources identified in the response to Question la would i shift siightly, reflecting more generation from lower cost resources. For example, a 3* increase in the proportion of low sulfur coal generation, and 2 equal decrease in oil generation would result in the above noted decrease in overall cost of replacement power from Consumers Power Company's units.

The table supplied in response to Question Ic would appear as follows:

QUESTION 3 Staff wishes to determine what fraction of the capital costs of Midland should  !

! be considered not sunk. Should an OL be delayed 1 to 5 years or not granted l

then, excepting fuel and operation and maintenance, can any of the costs of Midland be recovered? If yes, please explain in what way and the amounts of money involved. For example, if the plant never ran how much less than $83.5 million (ERS, Amendment 1, p. 8.2-2) would decommissioning costs be?

i

RESPONSE

Sections 5.8 and 8.2.5 of the ER(OLS) have been revised to present the dis-cussion on costs of decommissioning and dismantling, which are now estimated 11

in 1984 dollars to be $235 million.

A review was made of this estimate to determine the costs of removal if the Plant were never to be operated. It is assumed that fuel loading does not 1 2 take place, therefore, there are no contaminated elements. Based on the 1

f reevaluation under the described conditions, the costs of removal would be l

j $145 million. Since the equipment is assumed to be clean (uncontaminated), a

, salvage value has been attached of $31 million. Hence, if the site is 11 restored before fuel loading occurs, the net loss due to restoration is estimated to be $114 million in 1984.

O BENEFIT-COST ANALYSES AND NEED FOR POWER QUESTION 11 Explain the interval by interval load model and the meaning of Table 1.1-11.

RESPONSE

?

The phrase " interval by interval load model" as used in the ERS has been replaced by the more descriptive phrase " monthly load model" in added ER 2 Section 1.1.3.2 which updates the information in the ERS. The purpose of both is to describe the daily, peak hour load scaling factors that are used to l

obtain a daily, peak hour load for years in the future. These scaling factors are based on historical loads modified by projected differences.

O ER Table 1.1-14 indicates the factors that when applied to projected r Sasonal >

peak load will yield the peak hour load for each weekday of the year under consideration.
