Gentlemen:?
-: The: Limerick 4 Generating Station (LGS), UnitsL1 and 2, Environmental-Protection Plan-(EPP), Section 3.2, stipulates that the-NRC shall receive a copy of any proposed changes to'the LGS National PollutantiDischarge Elimination System (NPDES) permit at the same time Lthe permittingiagency is notified.-
1Byiletters dated June-:12, 1992 and June - 19, s1992, ; to the Pennsylvania-Department of Environmental Resources-(PA: DER),
Philadelphia Electric Company (PEco) requested changes'to LGS NPDES Permit 1No. PA0051926 regarding the-addition _:of chemical-additives 1for Tusem in the.secondaryicooling--water system.- - The. proposed ~ changes to the NPDES.permitfinvolve the use of the chemical;.BETZ'860 (i.e., used
~
'to-facilitate cleaning:of heat exchanger. tubes), and the chemical BETZ Clamtrol-~CT-1-(i;e.,'us'ed to-control Asiatic-Clams)'.
Both of these
'these chemicals have been previously approved for use at LGS.

'U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission July 2, 1992 Document Control Desk Page 2 Therefore, in accordance with the LGS EPP Section 3.2, the letters requesting the changes to the LGS NPDES permit are attached along with the chemical fact sheets for BETZ 860.
Picase note that our letters to the PA DER requesting the changes to the NPDES permit were not submitted to the NRC at the same time that the PA DER was notified, as required by the EPP.
The delay in notifying the NRC of these proposed changes was due to transmittal of these letters from the originating organization to the Licensing Section.
In order to prevent recurrence of this problem, the originating organization will forward a copy of the NPDES permit changes directly to the 6:RC in the future.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

%!illi, f 1 7i June 12, 1992 Mr. Sohan L. Garg Department of Environmer.tal Resources Suite 6010, Lee Fark 555 North Lan6 Conshohocken, PA 19428
Dear Mr. Garg:
Limerick Generating Station NPDES Permit PA 0051926 Recently, we received your approval to use the chemical additive Betz 860 for the chemical cleaning of a heat exchanger at-Limerick Generating Station.
The chemical was used, consistent with the conditeens of your approval, and significantly facilitated the cleaning of the heat exchanger tubes.
The station has indicated that other similar plant heat exchangeru may require cicaning in the near future.
Therefore, we are requesting that the Botz,860 be approved for uso at Limerick Generating Station on an as needed basis (similar to the approval for chemical metal cleaning of fossil-fired boilers).
The expected usage rate will be the same as in our last request, 350 gallons per day.
Discharge of the chemical will be to the spray pond or cooling towers.
This will result in an expected concentration of the chemics 1 at outfall 001 of less than 100 ppm.
Attached are the product fact sheets, Material Safety Data Sheete. fnd aquatic toxicity d.ata for the Betz 860.
Additionally, since the Betz-86C has the tendency to precipitate at ambient temperatures, we are requesting that Betz DE-1579, a less concentrated version of the Betz 860, be approved for use.
The Betz DE-1579 would be injected for the same duration as the betz 860, however, the concentration would be approximately 2500 ppm (versus 1500 ppm for the Betz 860).
The daily usage rate would be 600 gallons per day.
Discharge of the Betz DE-1579 will be the same as the Betz 860 and will also result in a concentration level below 100 ppm at outfall 001.
Attached are the Material Safety Data Sheets and aquatic toxicity data for the Betz DE-1579.
Since additional cleaning may be required in the near
4 future,wearerequestingthatafavorableresponsebereceived
~
by June 29, 1992.
This is consistent with the two week review time noted in your previous approval letter.
If you have any questions, please contact Robert M. Matty, Jr. at 841-5177.
Sincerely yours,

. Limerick Generating Station NPDES Permit PA0051926 Clarification on Betz ClamTrol CT-1 Usage Dear Mr. cargt.
We'are' requesting that the following changes and/or clarifications be made
' to the approval for usage-of Detr ClamTrol CT-1 1.
Your approval stat 6d that the ClamTrol CT-1 may be used to control Asiatic Cleme.
Based on recent inspections, Limerick Station is very concerned with the microfouling of station cooling systems by sources other than clams.- We are requesting that your approval be modified to-allow.for controlling of general microfouling in (addition to Asietic Clams). Usage rates,. effluent concentration and mor.itoring will be the same as.in the original approval.
2.-
_Usr of1t he CT-1. was approved for. a few days per. year. We are
-requesting.that the approval'be on an as needed basis.. Usage rates shall be within approved limits and we will use the minimum amount necessary to accomplish-the intended purpose of the chemical addition.
3.
Please' provide us with a clarification on the allowable dosage rate-from the workeheet you provided in November, 1991. The allowable-dosage rate was calculated to be 86 lbs/ day.
Use of-this chemical above 86 lbs/ day would require detoxification using BETE DTS..
We are interprsting this to mean that based on our flow rates, using 86 lbs/ day or less will insure that the Sffluent concentration at-outfall
. 001 will not exceed.06 mg/l average. Therefore, by maintaining this
. usage. rate, we.will not be required to usu BETZ DTS or monitor : the affluent for CT-1 concentration levels. Honitoring'and use of DTS will only be.' required when we exceed the 86 lbs/ day ueago cate.
please inform.us whether or not your concur.with outinterptstation-and-provide us with any.further clarification.
4.-
As per previous discussions,.you are aware:that the CT-1 cannot,be reliably detected to a limit,of.06 mg/1. We are proposin7 that the concentration of CT-1 at outfall 001 will-be. calculated to verify
- compliance. -To'do this, only one cooling tower will be treated at'a
- time.=;The other cooling tower's blowdown will be available.for dilution. Knowing the blowdown rates (treated and untreated) and the l,'
concontration of the treated cooling tower,-the concentration of CT-1 at Outfall 001 can be calculated and controlled.

5.
The daily usage rate of 1491 lbs/ day in your approval m..
identified as a maintenance dosage based on system losses due to blowdown.
To initially charge a cooling tower and establish the desired chamical concentration, a dosage of nearly double the approved amount (3000 lbs/ day) is required. Monitoring, as described, will be done to insure that the level of concentration does not exceed the.06 mg/l limit at Ouefall 001.
Therefore, we are requesting that the approval to use CT-1 be modified to allow for a dosage of 3000 lbs/ day as an initial treatmer.t to entablish the desired concentration in the cooling tower.
A response to these items in critical to Limerick Station. We do not
- feel that we can use_the CT-1, as approved, and be in compliance with your requir ement s.
A favorable response by July 3, 1992 would be appreciated.
If you have any questions or require add!tional information, please contact-Aobert M. Matty, Jr. at 841-5177.
