PREFACE The Annual Environmental Operating Report (AEOR) presents information and Jata obtained from implementation of Grand Gulf Nuclear Station's (GGNS) Environmental Protection Plan (EPP), Appendix B to the GGNS Operating License (NPF-29), for the period January 1 through December 31, 1991.

llistorical information has been included, where applicable, for comparison purposes.

The GGNS EPP requires monitoring for potential erosion along transmission line corridors and impact of cooling tower drift on vegetation. These are;the only

~

terrestrial issues required to be addressed by the GGNS EPP.

No aquatic issues were identified in the GGNS Final Environmental Statement.

Conocquently, none are addressed by the GGNS EPP.

Effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for aquatic matters are contained in the GGNS National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit issued by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ). The HDEQ regulates-matters involving water quality and aquatic biota.

In addition to the required terrestrial issues, activities associated with the Construction Permit are also discussed, llowever, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission app oved cancellation of Constructinn Permit CPPR-119 for Unit' 2 on August 21, 1991-(GNRI-91/00176); therefore, monitoring and reporting activities' associated with the-construction permit were terminated at the end of' September.

The AEOR also addresses environmental issues which are not within the scope of 1

the EPP.

This provides a more comprbhensive report for the Environmental' Surveillance Program and informs the Nuclear Regulatory Commission:of environmental activities at GGNS.

AEOR.RPT/SRREVFI.R-1-1

INTRODUCTION Grand Gulf Nuclear Station consists of one operating lioiling water reactor with a current not maximum dependable capacity rating of 1142 MWo.

A second unit, on which construction had been previously suspended, was cancelled during September, 1989. An application for termination of the Unit-2 Construction Permit was submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on December F._1990 and approved on August 21, 1991 (GNRI-91/00176).

This resulted in termination of monitoring and reporting of most activites associated with the permit.

Any_.

continuing Unit 2 activities were absorbed under the Unit 1 permit.

1.1 IMPACT ASSESSMENT ANIL

SUMMARY

Environmental Surveillance Program (ESP) personnel monitored the environmental impact of GGNS operational activities between January 1 and December 31, 1991.

The_ ESP monitoring results contained in the following e

sections indicate the environment was not adverseily impacted in 1991 by the operatica of GGNS.

In addition, ESP personnel have not observed any harmful ef fects or. evidence of trends toward irreversible damage to the surrounding environment at GGNS.

-Overall, 1991 rmults were comparable to those-of previous years and remained within anticipated ranges.

1.2 GGNS SITE CHARACTERISTICS Grand Gulf Nuclear Station'is located in Claiborne County, Mississippi, on the east bank -of the Mississippi River, approximately 25_ miles' south of

.Vicksburg and 37' miles north-northeast of Natchez. Grand Gu_lf Military Park

. borders a portion of the north. side of the-property, and the small community of Grand Gulf _is approximately one and_'one-half miles to_the north. The town.of Port Gibson is about six miles southeast of the site..Two. lakes, Gin Lake and AEGR.RPT/SRREVFLR-1

-. _. _ _ _.. ~. _ _

llamilton Lake, are-located in the western portJon of the site. These lakes were once the channel of the 111ssissippi River and average about sight to ten feet in depth. An area map showing geographical Ior.ation of GGNG _ is provided in Figure 1-1.

Site and Its Environs The site and its environs. consist primarily of woodlands divided between two physiographic regions.

The western hale of the site is in the alluual.

plain of the llississippi River; the eastern half -is in the Loess or Bluff Ill11s.

- 1 The property line shown in Figure 1-2 encompasues the 2300 acres originally purchased, llowever, due _to erosion activity of the tiississippi-River along the vestern boundary of the. site, this acreage figure continually decreased until the river bank from the barge slip to the north boundary of the site was ctabilized through the U. S. Army Corps.of Engineers shoreline modification program, Based on the-GGNS Updated-Final Safety Analysis Report, the current acreage figure for the site is approximately-2100 acres.

The site boundary is the same as.the property line except in southwest and west-southwest sectors as shown in Figure 1-2.

-A 2-acre residential property within the southwest sector is privately owned.

Access The site area is accessible by two major highways: - U. S.-Ilighway-61 and State liighway 18, which connect Port Gibson (6 miles' southeast of the' site) l with Natchez, Jackson and Vicksburg.

2.1 SM0hE CONTROI, The GGNS Burn Pit, which was officially closed on February 22, 1990, was filled with dirt during the week of June 11, 1990, thus prohibiting any future use.

2.2 EROSION CONTRQL Erosion control at GGNS is a priority because of proximity of GGNS to the Mississippi River, hilly terrain, avetago annual ?:alnfall of approximately 50 inches and loess soils which are extremely susceptible to erosion. -The methods which have been successfully utilized.Lo control erosion are:

o Revegetation of disturbed areas o

Utilization of concrete chutes and fiumes which channel runoff into two sediment basins, A and 3 (Figure 2-1).

Sedimentation basins help mir.imize ecological effect on llamilton Lake and the Mississippi River.

As a result of Amendment 7 to GGNS Construction Permit Numbers CPPR-118 f

and 119, dated December 23, 1981, monitoring and capacity requirements for the sedimentation basins were transferred to the GGNS NPDES Permit. Environmental Surveillance Program personnel elected = to continue..runof f ' sample collection' on a voluntary basis for an addiiional-period-of time to gather supplemental data on basin sediment removal. Runof f sample collection, 'which 'was required. prior to amending the Construction Permits, was discontinued on January. 31, 1985.

{

Monitoring of sedimentation basins since-January 31, 1985 has been conducted

-j accirding to-parameters established by the GGh5 NPDES Permit.

2.3 18MliMlSSION LINE _ SURVEYS The aerial surveys in previous years have confirmed that soll and vegetation have stabilized along the GGNS transmission lines.

Therefore, as permitted by Section 4.2.1, Paragraph 2. of the EPP, the Erosion Control Inspection Program was discontinued in-1988.

2.4 LIOUID AND SOLID WASTE liANAGEMENI Liquid wastes, such as chemicals, fuels and lubricants' which could not be discharged as wastewater, were deposited or diccharged into-tanks and/or containers. These materials, excluding borated water, were salvaged or removed to appropriate of fsite treatment and/or disposal facilit'les.

Dorated water was placed in the onsite resin' pond and in the trected low volume wastewater pond. Care was taken to avoid handling or storing of liquide'in close proximity of major drainage areas to avoid potentially damaging spills to site streams.

Construction scrap and debris were' collected in designated onsite areas

- r for salvage or burial. Noncombustible solid wastes were buried in designated landfill areas.

A contractor began collection and disposal-of Unit 1 and Energy Service Center waste in 1988.

Prior to this arrangement, Unit 2 construction personnel-disposed of this waste onsite.

2.5 LAND MANAGEMENT AND1 WILDLIFE Approximately 2100 acres make up the GGNS site; 94 acres are fenced inLthe immediate plant area, with an addit'ional. 37Lacres. set aside for permanent '

structures. The remaining acreage provides-excillent habitatLfor Mississippi-wildlife.

Fringe areas and open fields were normally mowed iwo times'during each growing season to keep opon areas from being overtaken by scrub vegetation.

After the growing season, a series of small food plots were planted in these open fields to help sustain wildlife popnlations through the winter and early spring. A small fruit orchard and two gardens were also maintained on site by ESP personnel.

Twe iskes located on the site, Gin and Hamilton, were used for sport and commercial fishing by area residents. Use of the lakes and surrounding local lands by water dependent species (waterfowl) was seasonal ~, with most activity occurring during fall and winter migrations.

Hunting on site was limited to bowIhunting for in-season animals, pursuant' to the requirements of Mississippi hunting laws.

Other hunting activities were prohibited on the GGNS site.

2.6 GROUNDWATER MONITORING The groundwater monitoring program was continued during 1991 at GGNS to:

4 o Provide data on seasonal fluctuation of the regional groundwater table

[

Monitor level of the perched groundwater table around Power Block areas.

~

o Location of Monitoring Wells Twenty-seven wells were used to-monitor the regional.and perched groundwater underlying GGNS:

o Twelve wells for regional groundwater levels on site area Fifteen wells for perched groundwater levels-around Power Block areas.

o Locations of monitoring wells are shown in' Figures 2-2 and 2-3 and listed in Tables 2-1 and 2-2.

Reelonal Groundwater Wells used to monitor regional groundwater levels (Figure 2-2 and Table 2-1) were normally_ measured'at least twice a month.- Ilowever, cancellation-of the GGNS Unit 2 Construction Permit in 1991 reduced monitoring frequency to-twice per year (April and Septemoer).

Perched Groundwater GGNS has a monitoring and dewatering system (Figure 2-3 and Table 2-2) located around the Power Block and Standby Service Water Basins to monitor euul dewater the underlying perched aquifer.- Seven monitoring wells _(MW-1 through MW-7) were used to monitor water levels in-the perched aquifer. Eight dewatering wells (DW-1 through DW-8) were in place to dewater the aquifer if-t water levels approached or exceeded the GGNS design basis elevation of 109 feet mean sea level (MSL). Water levels in perched aquifer-wells were observed.and recorded once a month.

2.7 NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM (NPDES) PERMIT National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit No.

MS0029521 was amended and reissued to GGNS on October 9, 1990. The permit as issued in October 1990 consisted of 13 outfalls..

The permit allows GGNS-to discharge wastewater, 'in accordance with NPDES

~

regulations, into llamilton Lake and the Mississippi River. NPDES reporting-requirements are established by the State of Mississippi.

Monthly _ Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) for each outfall were prepared and sent to the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and U. S. Nuclear' Regulatory Commission.vla NPDES Monthly Reports.

i 2.8 IllERMAL MONITORING PROGRAM Grand Gulf Nuclear Station's NPDES Permit requires that GGN3 effluents and the Mississippi River mixing area be monitored to determine what effects, if any, will result from GGNS's heated discharge in'to thn river.

The NPDES Permit r

states:

The receiving water shall not exceed a maximum water temperature change of 2.8'C (5.0*F) relativo to the upriver _ temperature, outside_n mixing zone.

not exceeding a maximum width of 60 feet from the river: edge and a maximum length of 6000 feet downstream fron the point of discharge, as measured at a depth of 5 feet.

The maximum water _ temperature shall-not exceed 32.2'c (90'F) outside the same mixing. sono, except when ambient temperatures approach or exceed this value.

The amended permit as issued in October I990, only requires monitoring

- when river stage is less than 15.4 feet during wjnter months (November-April) or, is les than minus 1.2 feet during summer months (May -.0ctober). - In addition, once monitoring has been performed at river stages less than the 15.4

^

and minus 1.2 feet limits, the river stage which existed at_ time of monitoring

' k will becomo the t..w limit.

Initially, the thermal monitoring program had 72 reference = points 100- feet apart along the river bank, llowever, as-a result of the amended permit, thermal monitoring was required near tlue shoreline-only :at Points 1 and 7 and in the barge slip outlet.

Calibrated digital thermometers were used to obtain temperatures at a

- depth of five feet and at the surface.

2.9 COOLING TOWER DRIFT PROGR&B

]

The Environmental Protection Plan requires a study to determine environmental effects of salt deposition from cooling tower drif t.

After reviewing suitable st'udy methods, GGNS personnel elected to' conduct a quantitative and qualitative cooling tower drif t study which would identify salts deposited on vegetation in the surrounding envir ' ment and determine the quantity of each salt.

Ealt Deposition Station Loqations Eight sampling sites were utilized to measure cooling tower drif t deposition.

Six of the eight sampling sites were located in areas where maximum salt deposition is predicted.

These areas were extrapolated.from the Bechtel-Salt Deposition Model developed for the GGNS Final Environmental Report. The remaining two sampling sites are control sites. The first is located south of Raymond, Mississippi.

An additional control site was added at Port Gibson, Mississippi, in 1985. Four of these-sampling sites were equipped with replicate sampling devices. The lleavy llaul Road and Glodjo locations had duplicate sampling devices which were not-installed-until 1985..Tho'1985<

duplicate were established to strengthen the. program's statistical trend analysis and to improve sampling-and analysis quality assurance.

The location 4

f salt deposition sJ tes are identified in' Figures 4 and 2-5 and-listed 'in Table 2-3.

Fallout samples'were collected in plastic buckets on a quarterly basis.

The buckets were located four to six feet above ground, fitted with bird rings and' covered with fine mesh screens to. exclude leaves and insects.

4 AEOR.RPT/SRREVFLR-2-6

Samolo Analysis and CollectiQB Samples were collected quarterly and analyzed for ten constituents:

o Calcium o Magnesium o Sodium o Iron-o Phosphate o Nitrate o Chloride o Fluoride o Sulfate o Total dissolved solids.

These parameters were selected because past analyses have shown them to be T

l prevalent in the Plant Service Water System.

Salt constituents were also determined for the domineralized water. used in initial setup of-collection -

l buckets. Rainfa11' data was recorded ~for each sampling site, i

I Screens were washed with dolonized water, and the wash water volume.

measured and deposited in the collector, on a quarterly basis. The volume of j

l water in_the collector was then measured, and-a composite sample of collector's i

contents was placed in a clean cubitainer, scaled and. labelled. The.date of removal, total collector volume, total rainfall and location of site were recorded on the appropriate data sheets, k

2.10 METEOROLOGICAL SYSTEM The GGNS meteorological tower, with a base elevation of 156 feet above 1

MSL, is approximately 5000 feet north-northwest of the GGNS Unit I reactor building, which has a finished grade of 132 feet above MSL.

The location of the meteorological tower is shown in Figure 2-6, 3

The aren around t.he metecrological-tower is flat and covered by grass.-The nearest bluffs are approximately 362 feet west of the tower; with trees approximately-35 feet high along the bluffs. Approximately 400 feet east'are trees greater than -50 feet high. The nearest trees ' south-greater thau 50 - f.a.t high are approximately 690 feet from-the tower.. A-county road passes the meteorological tower-approximately-400 feet.to the-north..The tallest!

structure, GGNS Unit I natural draf t cooling tower, is 522 feet high.and 1s -

l situated approximately 6000. feet south-southeast.of meteorological tower.

t Due to its : location in a relatively-open area and its proximity to GGNS, the tower site -is expected to accurately represent the same ' meteorological'

[

characteristics as the region into which airborne macerial could be' released from.GGNS.

The meteorological system consists of duplicato sensors (Channels A & B).

Data recorded by meteorological instruments are stored in digital and analog forms via magnetic tape and strip charts.

The following meteorological parameters are monitored by the system:

Change in Temperature (delta T) o Wind Direction o

o Wind Speed o Dow Point o Temperature o Surface Precipitation.

Meteorological data was included in -the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Reports submitted to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

2.11 ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATIQhS The Environmental Protection Plan (EPP) for GGNS ' permits changes in GGNS design or operation and performance ci tests or experiments that affect the environment, provided they do not involve a change in the-EPP or an unroviewed environmental question. -This n.eans that changes,-tests or experiments-which do not af fect the environment are not subject to requirements of the EPP. Also, requirements of the EPP do not relieve GGNS of requirements in 10 CFR 50.59,

" Changes, Tests and Experiments," which address the question of safety associated with proposed changes,_ tests _and experiments.

Changes in plant design or operation and performance of tests and experiments were reviewed by GGNS personnel for possible effects they might have on the environment. When review determined change, test or experiment could affect the environment,- an environmental evaluation was prepared and r acorded before-additional construction or operational. activities associated with the change, test or experiment were begun.

However, the EPP < xcluded changes, tests or experiments _from the evaluation:

o If all measurable environmental _ effects were confined to onsite nreas previously disturbed during site preparation and plant construction, or If they were required to achieve compliance with other federal,' state, or o

local; requirements.

The originating organization performs an applicability determination on each proposed change, test or experimen to ascertain if activity might af fect t' e environment. Only those which have potential to affect the environment are required to receive environmental evaluations.

The originator of a proposed change, test or experiment completes an environmental evaluation o: documents that one is not required.. Completed environmental evaluations are forwarded to Nuclear Support for an lndependent review. After providing independent review, Nuclear Support reports results of environmental evaluations to the NRC in the GGNS Annual Environmental l Operating Report.

3.1 SMOKE CONTROL The GGNS Durn Pit, which was officially closed rebruary 22, 1990, was i

illied with dirt during the week of June 11, 1990, thus prohibiting any future j

I use.

3.2 EROS 10N CONTROL f

The GGNS NPDES Permit requires grab sampics collected from the outfalls of

[

Sediment Basins A & D for total suspended solids (TSS) analysis. Normally, t

sampics were not collected if prevailing meteorological conditions (such as t

heavy rain) could skew analysis resnits.

[

Analytical results are presented in Table 3-1.

As shown in Figure 3-1, j

I results indicate that, overall, the basins function at similar efficiencies and i

i L

that minimal erosion is occurring en the GGNS site, j

3.3 IRANSHISSION LINE SURVEYS The aerial surveys in previous years have confirmed that soil and i

i t

vegetation have stabilized along GGNS transiaission lines. Thurefore, as permitted by Section 4.2.1, paragraph 2, of the EPP, the Erosion Control l

l Inspection Program was discontinued in 1988.

r f

3.4 LIOUID AND SOLID WASTE HAMAGL,iMI Liquid Waste j

t GGNS did not incur any serious problems or incidents-with liquid waste l

t control in 1991. Liquids which were suitable fer reuso were recycled through :

t local contractors and nonprofit organizations.. Nonhazardous liquid wastes j

(borated water and cooling waters)- were disposed of through National Pollutant i

Discharge Elimination System outfalls.

l Solid Waalc Solid waste generated at GGNS during 1991 did not present any unanticipated problems or adversely affect the environment.

Solid wanto which was not salvagnable was buried at an approved landfill.

i Waste Management, Inc. has been contracted since 1988 for collection and i

disposal of solid waste from GGNS Unit 1 ai.d the Energy Services Conter. Theno.

consisted of offico, warehouse, cafeteria and maintenance wasten.

Final disposal was at thn Vicksburg landfill, lla?.ardous Wasto The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) inspected the Hazardous Wast.o Storagn Arna and rotated activitics on April 11, 1991. The r

purpose of the inspection was to confirm regulatory complianco with the GGNS Ilazardous Wasto Management Permit. No violations woro noted.

Enlyshlorinated Binhenvis (pcBa)

[

No known exposure or offsito rolonsn of pCBs occurred in.1991.

3.5 LAND MANAGEMENT AND WILDLIFE Based on field observations by ESP personnol, the 1991 operation of GGNS had no apparent ecological of fect on thn GGNS wildlife populat ion.

Common wildlife, such as deer, turkey and fish continuo to be abundant based on hunting and sport fishing activities.

Also, no. adverse impact was observed on I

threatened or endangered species known or suspected to inhabit the GGNS site.

Land management practices continued as in past years.

Fielda near the meteorological tower were used. for agricultural production and mowing machines s

were used to maintain other cleared areas. The majority of the sito can still

{

I be classified as predominantly hardwood forest.

Thus, diverso habitats were maintained to promoto the wildlife population.

In_-addition, Nuclear Plant Engineering observed elevated lovols above the.109.0 foot HSL in Dewat<3 ring Wells HW-6 and DW-8 during non-routino monitoring activities in May and October, respectively whleh are not shown on Pago 8 of Figure 3-3.

The HW-6 and DW-8 well problems were reported to the NRC in GNRO-91/0138 dated 09/06/91 and GNRO-92/0001 dated 02/07/92, respectlyoly.- llowever, all_ problems were corrected and elevations returned below the 109.0 foot MSL, Well measurements taken during 1991 are included as Appundix 1.

t 3.8 IllERMAL MONITORING l

Thermal monitoring (Section 2.8) was conducted on November 5, 1991 by ESP personnel. No limit imposed by the NPtn 3 Permit was exceeded. A summary of thermal monitoring conducted in 1991 is prc/ided as Appendix II.

3.9 COOLING TOWER DRIFT During 1991, cumulative salt deposition samples were collected for four l

quarterly periods. Replicate samplos were taken at four locations (Stations 1, 2, 5 and 6) as described in Section 2.9.

Table 3-6 presents the calculated salt deposition rates (SDRs) for eight monitoring sites in the GGNS Cooling Tower Drift Program.- These SDRs form bases for statistical analysis required by-Section 4.2.2 of the EPP.

Section 4.2.2 of the EPP required the Cooling Tower Drift Program to begin

[

at least 3 months prior to operation of Unit 1 above 5% power and continued xor j

three years of operation.

Section 4.2.2 further states ~ that if no statistically significant amounts of analyzed components are detected during this time period, then a proposal can be made to the NRC to terminate the-

[

r program.

In 1989 Nuclear Plant Engineering conducted an analysis of variance comparison between preoperational and operational data. Results or this l

r comparison revealed no statistically significant amounts of salt were detected

-between preoperational and operational samples. On Febtuary. 19, 1991,-GGNS j

submitted a proposal (GNRO-91/00029) to-terminate the Cooling Tower Drift'

]

t Program based on results of the 1989 analysis without revising,the EPP.

llowever, the NRC recommended that the EPp be revised to reflect deletion of this seguirement.

Therefore, a formal request to discontinue the Cooling Tower Drif t Program was submitted to the NRC (GNRO-92/00017) in February, 1992.

A statistical analysis for 1991 data shown in Table 3-6 has not been performed pending outcome of the termination. proposal.

Rainfall data collected at each sampling site is provided-as Table 3-7.

3.10 METEOROLOGICAL DAIA Heteorological data for the 1991 reporting peciod was included in the -

Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Reports submitted to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Data contained in these reports is summarized-in the following tables:

o Joint Frequency Distribution, 30 Motor Level (Table 3-8) o Joint Frequency Distribution. 10 Heter. Level (Table 3-9) o Percent Bad Data Report (Table 3-10).

Table 3-11 shown-the percent meteorological data recovery since 1986.

This table indicates the meteorological system is performing satisfactorily, as well as providing consistent data.

3.11 ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATIONS Dur4ng 1991, no-unreviewed environmental questions were found.

Environmental evaluations reviewed by Nuclear Support personnel-were routine matter, within the scope of expected activities. No environmental consequences have been observed as a result-of conduct of the activities evaluated.-

' Radiological & Environmental Services (R&ES)' pesannel established a program.to nonitor' Grand Gulf. Nuclear. Stat be s (GGN8) liquid affluent touperature according to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System-(NPDES).- The 2.8 *C temperature change; limit for water surrounding the mixing zone (Attachment.-I) was _not exceeded.

METHOD Nuclear Plant Engineering (NPE) personnel surveyed the river bank to mark 72 reference points 100 feet apart (66 downstream and six upstream of the bar.te slip, Attachment I).

R&ES personnel conducted monitoring once in. winter and once in summer when operating at 2, 25%, power.: They used calibrated digita1

~

thermometers to obtain temperatures at a -depth of five: feet - and at the surface.

At each reforence point, : measurements were - taken - 100. feet from the river bank, then at ten-feet intervals until' reachint the bank.

RACIEROUND Monitoring has been conducted 16 times, beginning in September 1982. :

I Four background measurements-were me.to before'GGNS;wan= operational; five were made during winter! operating conditions;.and'seven were made during summer operating' conditions.-

Survey referencu points that were monitored'_ for each summer and l winter period are shown.in Attachment'II.: Temperature,.riv3r and plants operating = data are summarized in Attachments III and IV.-

DischarteL temperature.-upriver. temperature and percent. power are shown graphically-in. Attachment V.

Ambient and:Outfall 0011teeperatures are shown in Attachment VI.

Miseissippi-River stages f are plotted:in Attachment VII.

t ELELD

=

Since. June 1986 -(summer) the number._of survey. reference points monitored has. been reduced-as shown. in Attachment II.. This L reduction :

occurred-based - on the' fact L that there were no. significant temperature -

changes observed in. the water surroundiog the mixing zone.1 The monitoring resultsl(Attachments III and IV):show'under' normal l

summer flow and temperature conditiona, the ' thermal. plume rarely.

extended into the. river and-was usually. confined toi the barge slip and -

mixing zone.. Under normalminters condition's,: the; thermal plume 'usually _

i extended a.few: feet downstream.

3 Radiological & Environmental Services personnel did observe that-discharge outlet temperature readings recorded during the winter monitoring periods of 1986 and 1987 were the; highest.- However,:upon-investigation ~ of the-cause(s),~ we concluded it was a combination of -

i e

river stage, ambient temperature, -blowdown flow and percent; plant '

[

power,. with river stage being the most dominant 1 factor.

The dominant effact. of river stage -.on the discharge outlet Jtemperature is further substantiated by_ the. fact that the_ discharge pipe becomes uncovered ce

_[

a river stage of approximately 20 feet (Vicksburg gauge).=_

Haximum temperature changes (delta _Ts) relativa to theiuprivor-r temperature are provided in Attachments III and IV for the discharge outlet, barge slip outlet and surrounding water.

Discharge and barge slip outlet delta Ts are shown in Attachment VIII.

The 2.8 *C delta T limit for water surrounding the mixing zone was not exceeded as shown in Attachments-IX and X.

Delta Ts for the discharge outlet were obtaiaod by subtracting the upstream river surface or 5 feet temperature reading, whichever gave the highest value, from the reading recorded in-the discharge outlet.

Delta Ts for the-barge slip outlet were. obtained by subtracting the uystress river surf ace or 5 ' feet temperature reading, whichever gave the highest value, from the reading recorded in the barge slip outlet.

Delta Ts for the surrounding water were obtained by subtracting the upstream river surface-and 5 feet temperature readings from the maximum surrounding water surface and 5 feet readings, respectively.

The delta Ts shown in Attachments III and IV are shown as absolute values, therefore there were no negative numbers.

CONCLUSIDW A review of the thermal monitoring data shows the Mississippi. River supplies a volume of water sufficient for dissipating the heated discharge from GGNS within the required mixing -zone.-

Summer and winter thermal monitoring data show the turbulence and volume of the Mississippi River six the heated discharge and cause little toeperature difference.

The only area influenced by GGN5 heated disebtge 'is the barge slip and the associated entry into the Mississippi-River.

CEXO-91/00345 CTC-91/00085 QESJRIPTIOji This Safety Evaluation addresses chemical cleaning of the Circulating Water System Cooling Tower fill medium per TSTI 1W20-91-001-0-N.

The Cooling Tower fill medium has become partially plugged due to biological fouling. Plugging of the fill prevents proper heat transfer across the Cooling Tower and is degrading plant ef ficiency. Chemical cleaning will help eliminate this plugging and improve plant officiency.

Cleaning will be accomplished por the TSTI using flydrogen Peroxide (H202) at 50% concentration.

Hydrogen Peroxide will be injected into each~ Cooling Tower flume, where

.? will be equally dispersed across the fill medium by the norma':

.rculating Water flow.

The Hydrogen Peroxide cleaning will be' performed in a minimum of 6 phases. Results of the first phase will be evaluated to determine effects and effectiveness of the cleaning prior to proceeding to the next phase. The cleaning process will be controlled (per the TSTI) to minimize the impact of solids released from the Cooling Tower to the Circulating Water System.

Addition of the !!ydrogen Potoxide to the Circulating Water System to clean the fill medium does not af fect or alter any Technical Specification.

The flydrogen Peroxide has boon evaluated for compatibility with the materials of construction in the Circulating Water System. This evaluation concluded that no adverse effects would be incurred to the materials or components of the Circulating Water System at the specified maximum feed rates and concentrations. Tech Specs does not address water chemistry makeup of the Circulating Water System.

This activity will not affect the ability to maintain the reactor coolant chemistry within Tech Spec limits, even in the event of a catastrophic Condenser tube failure because the addition of !!ydrogen Peroxide will not increase the ion concontration of the Circulating Water System. Cooling Tower blowdown will be increased during thn cleaning process to remove solids that will be released from the tower fill and thus reduce ion concentration in the Circulating Water System.

Dissolved Solids concentration will remain at or below the normal concentrations.

Ionic loading and ion exchanger capacity margins in the condensate cleanup System required by Reg Guide 1.56 will therefore not be affected.

No change to Technical Specifications is needed nor is any new Technical Specification required.

b)

The implementation of TSTI 1W20-91-001-0-N will not increase the probability of occurrence of an accident previously eval"ated in the UFSAR.

Cleaning of the Circulating Water System Cooling Tower fill medium will help restore the system to original design I

No change is required to the normal operation of the Circulating. Water System to perform this cleaning. collection of debree is the design function of the Circulating Water Pump suction screens and on-line cleaning of the suction screens is a normal maintenance practico. Solids released from the fill during the cleaning are not expected to increase plugging of the suction screens above the normal rate.

The TSTI will provide controls to ensure the Circulating Water Pump suction screens are monitored and cleaned as required during the cooling Tower cleaning.

Loss of the circulating Water Pumps during plant operation has been evaluated in UFSAR section 15.2.5.

ATTACHMENT II PAGE 2 OF D r

Evaluation has determined that no adverse effects will be incurred to materials or components of the circulating r

Water System by the flydrogen Peroxide at the specified maximum feed rates and concentrations.

The liydrogen Peroxide feed rate to the cooling Tower fiumes is inherently limited below the maximum acceptable feed rate due to the capacity of the tanker truck feed pump (Approx. 43 ft of head from ground elev. to injection point). In the unlikely event that a full tanker truck load of flydrogen Peroxide (approx. 4300 gals) is inadvertently dumped into the cooling Tower basin due to a

hose break, the maximum acceptable 11202 to circulating Water concentration (5000 PPM) as evaluated by EER 91/6197 would not be excceded.

Circulating Water System leakage has been addressed in FSAR section 10.4.5.3. Injection of the !!ydrogen Peroxide will be located in the plant yard at the cooling Tower and leakage from the injection hoses would not affect any safety related components or the safe shutdown of this plant. The structural integrity of components exposed to the liydrogen Peroxide will not be degraded and no new leakage paths for Circulating Water inventory are created.

BASIS Environmental concerns identified in the EPP which relate a

to water quality and aquatic blota are contained in the GCNS NPDES Permit issued by the Mississippi Departtuent of Environmental Quality (MDEQ). and the NRC relles on HDEQ for regulation.

Although the NPDES Permit does not directly address the use of hydrogen peroxide, MDEQ has approved its use.

Since 50% hydrogen peroxide at the specitied feed rates and concentrations will not adversely af fect the environment, there will be no change in the Environmental Protection Plan (EPP).

environmental impact appraisal, or in any decision of ASLB.

BASIS:

The growth of microorganisms in the cooling tower, promoted by recycling and heating of cooling water in the circulating Vater Syutem-(CWS); are minimized by intermittent additions of non-oxidizing blocides.

Biocides have been evaluated in the FES and approved by the MDEQ.. The primary environmental concern is in the use of chlorine, and-the NPDES Permit limits cooling tower blowdown discharge-for free available and total residual chlorine.

The use of 50% hydrogen peroxide will not af fect any existing NPDES limits however, an increase in solids will be seen initially during-the cleaning process.

Blowdown will be controlled during the hydrogen peroxide cleaning at approximately 2.5 cycles concentration instead of 3 cycles to help reduce the expected increase in solids at the peak of the cleaning.

Soll e concentration will decrease gradually through the make-up/ blowdown process, therefore solids will not significantly increase impact on the environment.

The FES does not directly cover the'use of hydrogen peroxide, but the proposed injection of 50% hydrogen peroxide solution into cooling Tower fill is not expected to result in adverse impact to the river biota.

[]

[V)

(c) Concerns a.significant change in effluents or power level.

BASI $s 50% hydrogen peroxide solution used as a cleaning process to remove the negative effects of bacterial growth (which has a negative effect on cooling tower efficiency) is anticipated to have a positive-influence on thermal performance' by increasing-air flow through cooling tower fill. At the specified, temperature, feed rates, and concentration. this chemical has no-significant-change in effluents because it;will quickly. decompose and dissipate.

Based on this evaluation of physical and chemical-aspects of injection of 50%

- hydrogen peroxide solution, no significant changes in effluents ist anticipated; and therefore no effect on~ the-Mississippi River is expected.
