Attachment to W3B2-95-1031 Page 1 of 2 WATERFORD 31994 ANWAL ENVIROAWNTAL OPERATIMS REPORT This report describes implementation of the Environmental Protection Plan (EPP) for the calendar year 1994, and provides the information required by the EPP.

A.

Summaries and analyses of the results of the environmental orotection activities reouired by EPP subsection 4.2:

This section of the EPP provides' protection of the two cultural resources areas on the Waterford 3 site. There were no activities which affected either the Plantation Overseer's House site or the Plantation Quarter's site, both eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, during this reporting period.

B.

EPP noncomnliance's and the corrective actions taken to remedy them:

There were no noncompliance's with the requirements of the EPP during this reporting period.

C.

A discussion of chanaes in station desian or operation. tests. or experiments made in accordance with the EPP subsection 3.1 which included a potentially sianificant unreviewed environmental auestion:

1.

A design change, DCP-3389/R0, " Alternate Chemical Addition to the Secondary System," was made to provide for injection of alternate amines and buffers into the secondary system.

Two new chemical feed skids were added in the Turbine Generator Building to accommodate the injection.

This change will permit the plant to comply with the EPRI "PWR Secondary Water Chemistry Guidelines" (dated January 1993) and prolong the life of the steam generators.

The feed skids were added to the non-safety portions of the Condensate and Feedwater systems and do not affect the function or operation of these systems. The feed skids were connected to existing chemical feed lines and no new system interactions were created.

W382-95-1031 Page 2 of 2 The EPP states in Section 2.1." Effluent limitations and monitoring requirements are contained in the NPDES Permit (No.

i LA0007374) issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region VI. The NRC will rely on the EPA for regulation matters involving the protection of water quality and aquatic biota."

A modification request to the Waterford 3 NPDES Permit, No.

LA0007374, was submitted to the EPA, Region VI to provide for the discharge of alternate amines and buffers associated with this design change.

The permit modification request is presently under active consideration by the EPA. The permit modification approval will be obtained prior to the use of the new amines and buffers.

2.

A special test, Special Test Procedure WA# 01128262, " Biocide Addition to FP System," was performed which allowed the addition and subsequent flushing of a biocide chemical in the Fire Protection Water System. The test provided a one time chemical treatment of the water to minimize the affects of niicrobiologically influenced corrosion (MIC).

All sections of the Fire Protection Water System remained operable during the test.

The Fire Protection Water System is a closed system and has no normal release path to other systems or the environment; therefore, there was no adverse environmental impact presented by the addition of biocide chemicals to this system.

The biocide was distributed throughout the Fire Protection Water System and allowed to " soak" for 96 hours0.00111 days <br />0.0267 hours <br />1.587302e-4 weeks <br />3.6528e-5 months <br /> to gain maximum effectiveness.

The biocide was removed from the system by means of a flushing flow path and retained in a temporary holding-tank.

The biocide was allowed to naturally decay in the temporary tank until it was acceptable for release in accordance with NPDES Permit LA0007374.

D.

Nonroutine reports submitted in accordance with subsection 5.4.2:

There were no nonroutine reports submitted in accordance with subsection 5.4.2 during this reporting period.
