Subject:
Docket 50-482: Kansas Water Pollution Control Permit and Authorization to Discharge under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit for Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS)
Gentlemen:
This letter transmits the proposed Kansas Water Pollution Control Permit and authorization to discharge under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit for Wolf Creek Generating Station.
The enclosed public notice was issued to inform interested persons of the agency's intent to issue the proposed permit.
The permit change eliminates sewage treatment plant discharge to the Wolf Creek Cooling Lake.
The sewage treatment plant discharge is being rerouted to a nondischarging sewage lagoon.
This submittal is made pursuant to Wolf Creek Generating Station Facility Operating License NPF-42, Appendix B, Section 3.2.

This permit shall become effective
, will supersede all previous permits and/or agreements in effect between the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the permittee, and will expire February 1. 1999,
FACILITY DESCRIPTION:
The station consists of a pressurized nuclear reactor steam supply system and a generator used for generation, trarsmission and distribution of turbine electrical power.
The nuclear steam supply system is comprised of a reactor vessel and four primary coolant loops, oach with a reactor coolant pump and steam generator. The net turbine generator output is a nominal 1.175 MWe. Wastewater discharges consist of an oil water separator, circulating water, radwaste system, i
neutralization system, settling ponds, service and essential service water discharge via the essential service water discharge and a cooling impoundment discharge.
In addition, there is a two cell domestic wastewater stabilization lagoon (which replaces the mechanical wastewater treatment plant at the station) and a three cell domestic wastewater stabilization lagoon at the Eisenhower Learning Center which do not discharge to surface waters.
