OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATTON Z."*! !.'O. 50 213 ALTERNATIVE COOLING' SYSTEMS As requested in your July 10, '974 letter, we have prepared updated cost figures for the condenser cooling water system alternatives discussed in Section 8.3.4 of the Oyster Creek Environmental Report.

These figures are presented in the attachment to this letter and reflect our current t

preliminary design efforts as,well as normal price escalations.

~

Members of your Staff have been informed verbally that these estimates are preliminary in nature and thus are subject to change as our efforts in this area develop more fully. On this basis, we will attempt to keep you informed of any major modifications to the data presented herein.

. OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION ESTIMATED COSTS OF ALTERNATIVE COOLING SYSTEMS

.e A.

Natural Draft Cooling Tower with Saltwater Makeup 1

The updated cost estimates which are provided herein reflect a single natural draft cooling. tower over 400 feet high, circular in all horizontal l cross sections, and hyperbolic in vertical cross sections.as discussed in 1

Section 8.3.6 of the Oyater Creek Environmental Report..These figures reflect the latest considerations made with respect to design for interface with the

.. existing plant condenser systems.

Ocean Discharge System (Oyster Creek only) l.

In the evaluation of' alternative cooling metho'ds for Oyster Creek Unit 1, 1

Section 8.3.8 of the Environmental Report states that the estimated cost for the Ocean Discharge System was. arbitrarily charged to the Oyster Creek and l

Forked River plants on the basis that both units would utilize the systen.

I The base prico chargeable against Oyster Creek is shown as $40,500,000 based on 1971 dollars.

d-This assignment of funds was made arbitrarily'..A reevaluation of this section reveals that incorrect conclusions regarding the cost-benefit analysis may be reached due to this cost division. The cost-benefit analysis'should-consider the cost of an Ocean Discharge System for the Oyster Creek facility alone rather than a split cost apportionment.

For Oyster Creek alone, a pipeline having'a diameter of 10 feet would be required instead of the 16 foot d.iameter pipe for the combined units. The cost of this Ocean Discharge System for Oyster Creek alone is estimated below rather than the previously stated $40,500,000.

This should be used for the cost chargeable to the Oyster Creek facility in the economic evaluations of alternative cooling methods.
