Mr. Harold R. Denton Director'cf Nuclear' Reactor Regulation U.S.. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, IX: 20555 ULNRC-774
Dear Mr. Denton:
DOCKET NUMBER 50-483 CALLAWAY PLANT, UNIT 1 ADDITIONAL BASIS FOR FORTY-YEAR OPERATING LICENSE
Reference:
ULNRC-697 dated 12/2/83 Signed by D. F. Schnell Th's letter provides additional information concerning our i
request, referenced above, for a forty-year operating term commencing with the issuance of the operating license for u
Callaway Unit 1.
This additional information responds to a L
request from.the Callaway NRC Project Manager.
n Union Electric finds that significant adverse environmental impact is not anticipated as a result of increasing the operating life of'Callaway Plant to 40 years.
The following points provide additional justification to' support this position:
(a)
The Callaway Plant is located in a rural area where the population growth over the forty-year lifetime is expected to be small.
(b).
Having Callaway Plant available for a forty-year term would maintain system capacity, promote fuel diversification, and defer capital costs and environmental impacts of replacement capacity.
(c)
Environmental considerations associated with a forty-year operating term do not change significantly.
Impacts on the aquatic ecosystem from water use and chemical, thermal, radioactive and other waste discharges derived from continued plant operation, would remain small.
Likewise the impact on the terrestrial ecosystem from continued cooling toyigr operation, radioactive discharge, and land use would also remain very small.
(d). A forty-year operating term would extend-the socioeconomic benefits from operation of the Plant.

t&x' benefits would continue to outweigh the small
,1 adverse impacts from land use and'the continued demand
.forl community services. - Accident risks, human health
' effects'and impacts from the~ balance of the fuel cycle
- will continue ~to be low.
- The, magnitude of.the_ plant impact is not. expected to_ vary
<significantly over an extended forty-year lifetime.
.The Callaway
. Plant was designed-for a forty-year: lifeand its' operation over this periodEof. time is not' expected to. compromise any safety
- limits or design parameters.:
Very.truly yours, Donald F.-Schnell
