Subject:
Calvert Giffs Nuclear Power Plant (State Discharge Permit No. 86-DP-0187)
Request for Permission to Perform Tests with Camtrol(CT 1)
Dear Mr. Knott:
i In August.1991, representatives from Betz (manufacturers of Camtrol CT 1) and I met with you and Ed Gertler about a test we would like to perform at Calvert Giffs using Camtrol CT 1. In that meeting we discussed the proposed test and provided information (including toxicity information) on this product. At this meeting, MDE representatives indicated that the proposed test would be acceptable. However, we agreed to make a formal request and receive written concurrence from the State.
Since Calvert Giffs was in the NPDES renewal process, we initially decided to wait for approval via the new permit. A request to do Camtrol tests was provided with the NPDES renewal application. However, since the permit has not been reissued as yet, we would like to request at this time your written concurrence to allow us to perform this test. The letter would require Mr. Richard Collins' (Director of Hazardous and Solid Waste Management Administration) signature in order for us to proceed.
Plant personnel wish to begin this test in June. We have drafted a proposed approvalletter to help expedite the process. Also enclosed is an updated aroposal for the study. The only changes to the original proposed study are the duration (we would ike to perform the study over a greater portion of th fouling season, a 4-5 month duration per unit) and we will likely only treat one of the two trains per unit. leaving the other train as a control.
Again, detailed information on this product was prevously provided to your office. We have included with this letter information on Foam-trol, in case this is needed to prevent foaming in th discharge. If you have any further questions or if the concurrence process will take much longer t a few weeks (since we would like to start testing in mid June), please give me a call (410)787 5114.
Sincerely,
\\

CALVERT CLIFFS NUCLEAR POWEn PLANT STATE DISCHARGE PERMIT No. 86-0P-0187
- PROPOSED CLAMTROL CT-1 TEST -
De proposed study is to test the etTectiveness of Clamtrol CT-1 in controlling microfouling in the Saltwater System of Calvert Ciffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP). The Saltwater System consists of two trains per unit (4 trains total). Each train has a flow of 20,000 gpm. Each train serves a component cooling water and service water heat exchanger, ne Saltwater System discharges / mixes into the Circulating Water System which has a Dow of 1,200,000 gpm per unit.
We study period is expected to last between 4-5 months per unit. (Each unit will begin testing on a different schedulet therefore, testing may actually be longer than 4-5 months for the entire study.)
Camtrol CT 1 will be injected into one train per unit (the other train serving as a control) once per week for approximately one hour. The concentration of the treated train will be between 30-60 ppm (most likely at 30 ppm since we intend to start with a clean system). Camtrol CT 1 naturally adsorbs and detoxifies on suspended substances in the water (i.e the water exerts a " demand" for the active product). Therefore, with dilution from the untreated train of the Saltwater System and the Circulating Water System plus the natural demand of the water, levels of Camtrol CT-1 at the NPDES 001 outfall are expected to be well below the detection limit of 0.2 ppm.
Camtrol CT 1 under certain circumstances has a tendency to foam. Because of the very low concentrations and the submerged discharge,it is believed that foaming will not occur in the Calvert Giffs discharge. However, if foaming occurs during initial testing and a water spray system isn't feasible to control foaming, we may want to try using a defoaming agent. He defoaming agent, Foamtrol, wo dd be added in the 20,000 gpm system being treated at a concentration of 2 5 ppm.
His would be diluted by the other 20,000 gpm untreated train and the Circulating Water System prior to discharge.

i DRAFT LETTER June X.1992 Mr. Jerry Warner Emironmental Programs Section Baltimore Gas and Electric Company 1000 Brandon Shores Road Baltimore, Maryland 21:26
Dear Mr. Warner:
The Department has reviewed BG&E's request (letter from M. Wieland, BG&E 5C.6/92) to perform testing of Clamtrol CT-1 in the Saltwater System of Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (State Discharge Permit No. 86 DP-0187). The Department ap) roves the Clamtrol CT-1 testing (and Foam Trol use ifit becomes necessary)in accordance witi the plan of study (dated 5/22/92) subject to the following condition:
Biomonitoring tests shall be conducted on the efuuent from Outfall 001 twice, at least 30
+
days apart. Each test shall consist of a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> acute toxicity screening test (100% effluent) usmg fathead minnow, and a 24-h< 4 mite toxicity screening test using Danhnia magnn. If the receiving water is brackish, a b. ;. nsh water species may be substituted for those specified above. Approved 'rackish water species for acute testing are sheepshead minnow, silversides, grass shrimp and mysid shrimp.
Testing shall begin within one month of the start of the project. The results sull be submitted within six months of the start of the project.
If you have any questions regarding this, please call Mr. Melvin Knott at (410)631 3324.
Sincerely, Richard Collins, Director Hazardous and Solid Waste Management Administration
