ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PLAN (NONRADIOLOGICAL) 4

1.0 Objectives of the Environmental Protection Plan The Environmental Protection Plan (EPP) is to provide for protection of nonradiological --

environmental values during operation of the nuclear facility. The principal objectives of the EPP are as follows:

(1) Verify that the facility is operated in an environmentally acceptable manner, as established by the Final Environmental Statements (FES) and other NRC environmentalimpact assessments.

(2) Coordinate NRC requirements and maintain consistency with other Federal, State and local requirements for environmental protection.

(3) Keep NRC informed of the environmental effects of facility construction and l

operation and of actions taken to control those effects.

Environmental concerns identified in the FES which relate to water quality matters are regulated by way of the licensee'sbDES permit.

Before engaging in additional construction or operational activities which may result in a significant adverse environ-mental impact that was not evaluated or that is significantly greater than that evaluated in the Final Environmental Statement (NUREG-0417), Southern Nuclear shall provide written notification to the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.

F. This license is subject to the following antitrust conditions:

(1) As used herein:

(a) " Entity" means any financially responsible person, private or public corporation, municipality, county, cooperative, association, joint stock association or business trust, owning, operating or proposing to own or operate equipment or facilities within the State of Georgia (other than Chatham, Effingham, Fannin, Towns and Union Counties) for the generation, transmission or distribution of electricity, provided that, except for municipalities, counties, or rural electric cooper-atives, " entity" is restricted to those which are or will be public utilities under the laws of the State of Georgia or under the laws of the United States, and are or will be providing retail electric service under a contract or rate schedule on file with and subject to the regulation of the Public Service Commission of the State of Georgia or any regulatory agency of the United States, and, provided further, that as to munici-palities, counties or rural electric cooperatives,

" entity" is restricted to those which provide electri-city to the public at retail within the State of Georgia (other than Chatham, Effingham, Fannin, Towns and Union Counties) or to responsible and legally qualified organ-izations of such municipalities, counties and/or cooper-atives in the State of Georgia (other than Chatham, Effingham, Fannin, Towns and Union Counties) to the extent they may bind their members.

(b) " Power Company" means Georgia Power Company, any successor, assignee of this license, or assignee of all or substantially all of Georgia Power Company's assets, and any affiliate or subsidiary of Georgia Power Company to the extent it engages in the ownership of any bulk power supply generation or transmission resource in the State of Georgia (but specifically not including (1) flood rights and other land rights acquired in the State of Georgia incidental to hydroelectric generation facilities located in another state and (2) facilities located west of the thread of the stream on that part of the Chattahoochee River serving as the boundary between the States of Georgia and Alabama).

(2) Power Company recognizes that it is often in the public interest for those engaging in bulk power supply and purchases to interconnect, coordinate for reliability and economy, and engage in bulk power supply t ransactions in order to increase interconnected system reliability and reduce the costs of electric power. Such arrangements must provide i for Power Company's costs (including a reasonable return) l in connection therewith and allow other participating entities l full access to the benefits available from interconnected l bulk power supply operations and must provide net benefits to Power Company. In entering into such arrangements neither l Power Company nor any other participant should be required

to violate the principles of sound engineering practice or

_7 forego a reasonably contemporaneous alternative arrangement with another, developed in good faith in arms length nego- l tiations (but not including arrangements between Power Company 1 and its affiliates or subsidiaries which impair entities' rights hereunder more than they would be impaired were such arrangements made in good faith between Power Company and a non-affiliate or non-subsidiary) which affords it greater benefits. Any such arrangement must provide for adequate notice and joint planning procedures consistent with sound engineering practice, and must relieve Power Company from obligations undertaken by it in the event such procedures are not followed by any participating entity.

Power Company recognizes that each entity may acquire some or all of its bulk power supply from sources other than Power Company.

In the implementation of the obligations stated in the suc-ceeding paragraphs, Power Company and entities shall act in accordance with the foregoing principles, and these principles are conditions to each of Power Company's obligations herein undertaken.

(3) Power Company shall interconnect with any entity which provides, or which has undertaken firm contractual obligations to provide, some or all of its bulk power supply from sources other than Power Company on terms to be included in an interconnection agreement which shall provide for appropriate allocation of the costs of interconnection facilities; provided however, that if an entity undertakes to negotiate such a firm contractual obligation, the Power Company shall, in good faith, negotiate with such entity concerning any proposed interconnection.

Such interconnection agreement shall provide, without undue preference or discrimination, for the following among other things, insofar as consistent with the operating necessities of Power Company's and any participating entity's systems:

l (a) maintenance and coordination of reserves, including, -

where appropriate, the purchase and sale thereof, j (b) emergency support, I (c) maintenance support, (d) economy energy exchanges, (e) purchase and sale of firm and non-firm capacity and energy, (f) economic dispatch of power resources within the State of Georgia, provided, however, that in no event shall such arrangements impose a higher percentage of reserve requirements on the participating entity than that maintained by Power Company for similar resources.

l

, e l

(4) Power Company shall sell full requirements power to any entity.

Power Company shall sell partial requirements power to any entity. Such sales shall be made pursuant to rates on file with the Federal Power Commission, or any successor regulatory agency, and subject to reasonable terms and conditions.

(5) (a) Power Company shall transmit (" transmission service")

bulk power over its system to any entity or entities with which it is interconnected, pursuant to rate schedules on file with the Federal Power Commission which will fully compensate Power Company for the use of its system, to the extent that such arrangements can be accommodated from a functional engineering standpoint and to the extent that Power Company has surplus line capacity or reasonably available funds to finance new construction for this purpose. To the extent the entity or entities are able, they shall reciprocally provide transmission service to Power Company. Transmission service will be provided under this subparagraph for the delivery of power to an entity for its or its members' consumption and retail distribution or for casual resale to another entity for (1) its consumption or (2) its retail dis-tribution. Nothing contained herein shall require the Power Company to transmit bulk power so as to have the effect of making the Tennessee Valley Authority ("TVA") or j its distributors, directly or indirectly, a source of i power supply outside the area determined by the TVA Board of Directors by resolution of May 16, 1966 to be the area for which the TVA or its distributors were the primary source of power supply on July 1, 1957, the date specified in the Revenue Bond Act of 1959, 16 USC 831 n-4.

(b) Power Company shall transmit over its system from any entity or entities with which it is interconnected, pursuant to rate schedules on file with the Federal Power Commission which will fully compensate Power company for the use of its system, bulk power which results from any such entity having excess capacity available from self-owned generating resources in the State of Georgia, to the extent such excess necessarily results from economic unit sizing or from failure to forecast load accurately or from such generating resources becoming operational earlier ~than the planned in-service date, to the extent that such arrangements can be accom-modated from a functional engineering standpoint, and to the extent Power company has surplus line capacity available.

(6) Upon request, Power Company shall provide service to any entity purchasing partial requirements service, full requirements service j or transmission service from Power Company at a delivery voltage i appropriate for loads served by such entity, commensurate with Power Company's available transmission facilities. Sales of such service shall be made pursuant to rates on file with the Federal Power Commission or any successor regulatory agency, and subject to reasonable terms and conditions.

L i (7) Upon reasonable notice, Power Company shall grant any entity the opportunity to purchase an appropriate share in the ownership of, ,

or, at the option of the entity, to purchase an appropriate share of

! unit power from each of the following nuclear generating units at )

i Power Company's costs, to the extent the same are constructed and i operated: Hatch 2, Vogtle 1, Vogtle 2, Vogtle 3, Vogtle 4, and any 1 other nuclear generating unit constructed by Power company in the State of Georgia which, in the application filed with the USAEC or its successor agency, is scheduled for commercial operation prior to January 1, 1989.

An entity's request for a share must have regard for the economic size of such nuclear unit (s), for the entity's load size, growth and characteristics, and for demands upon Power Company's system from other entities and Power Company's retail customers, all in accordance with sound engineering practice. Executory agreements to accomplish the foregoing shall contain provisions reasonably specified by Power Company requiring the entity to consummate and l pay for such purchase by an early date or dates certain. For l purposes of this provision, " unit power" shall mean capacity and associated energy from a specified generating unit.

(8) Southern Nuclear shall not market or broker power or energy from Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant, Unit 2. Georgia Power Company shall continue to be responsible for compliance with the obligations imposed on it by the antitrust conditions contained in this license,

, Georgia Power Company is responsible and accountable for the actions of Southern Nuclear, to the extent that Southern Nuclear's actions may, in any way, contravene the antitrust conditions of this license.

(9) To effect the foregoing conditions, the following steps shall be taken:

1 (a) Power Company shall file with the appropriate regulatory i authorities and thereafter maintain in force as needed an appropriate transmission tariff available to any entity; (b) Power Company shall file with the appropriate regulatory authorities and thereafter maintain in force as needed an appropriate partial requirements tariff available to any entity; Power Company shall have its liability limited to the partial requirements service actually contracted for and the entity shall bo made responsible for the security of the bulk power supp1; tesources acquired by the entity from sources other than t he Power Company; (c) Power company shall amend the general terms and conditions of its current Federal Power Commission tariff and thereafter maintain in force as needed provisions to enable any entity to receive bulk power at transmission voltage at appropriate rates:

(d) Power company shall not have the unilateral right to defeat the intended access by each entity to alternative sources of bulk power supply provided by the conditions to this license; but Power Company shall retain the right to seek regulatory approval of changes in its tariffs to the end that it be I adequately compensated for services it provides, specifically l including, but not limited to, the provisions of Section 205 of the Federal Power Act; I

l l

I l

(e) Power Company shall use its best efforts to amend any l outstanding contract to which it is a party that contains provisions which are inconsistent with the conditions of this license; (f) Power Company affirms that no consents are or will become l necessary from Power Company's parent, affiliates or subsidiaries to enable Power Company to carry out its obligations hereunder or to enable the entities to enjoy their rights hereunder; (g) All provisions of these conditions shall be subject to and implemented in accordance with the laws of the United States and of the State of Georgia, as applicable, and with rules, regulations and orders of agencies of both, as applicable.

G. This license is effective as of the date of issuance and shall i expire at midnight, June 13, 2018. l l

A tabulation on an annual basis of the number of station and other l personnel (including contractors) for whom monitoring was required, receiving exposures > 100 mrem /yr and their associated man rem exposure according to work and job functions (e.g., reactor operations and surveillance, inservice inspection, routine maintenance, special maintenance (describe maintenance), waste processing, and refueling).

This tabulation supplements the requirements of 10 CFR 20.2206. The dose assignments to various duty functions may be estimated based on pocket dosimeter, thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD), or film badge measurements. Small exposures totalling < 20% of the individual total dose need not be accounted for. In the aggregate, at least 80% of the

! total whole body dose received from external sources should be assigned

! to specific major work functions. The report shall be submitted by March 31 of each year.

1.0 Objectives of the Environmental Protection Plan j l

The Environmental Protection Plan (EPP) is to provide for protection of nonradiological l environmental values dunng operation of the nuclear facility. The principal objectives of 1 the EPP are as follows: )

(1) Verify that the facility is operated in an environmentally acceptable manner, as .

established by the Final Environmental Statements (FES) and other NRC 1 environmentalimpact assessments. 1 (2) Coordinate NRC requirements and maintain consistency with other Federal, State and local requirements for environmental protection.

(3) Keep NRC informed of the environmental effects of facility construction and operation and of actions taken to control those effects.

Environmental concerns identified in the FES which relate to water quality matters are regulated by way of the licensee's") NPDES permit.

I I

(a) The term " licensee," when used in the Edwin I. Hatch Emironmental Protection Plan, shall refer to Southern Nuclear Operating Company.

4.0 Environmental Conditions 4.1 Unusual or Important Environmental Events Any occurrence of an unusual or imponant event that indicates or could result in l significant environmental impact causally related to plant operation shall be recorded and reported to the NRC within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> followed by a written report per Subsection 5.4.2. 1 1

The following are examples: excessive bird impaction events; onsite plant or animal disease outbreaks; mortality or unusual occurrences of any species protected by the Endangered Species Act of 1973; fish kills or impingement events on the intake screens; increase in nuisance organisms or conditions; unanticipated or emergency discharge of waste water or chemical substances; and damage to vegetation resulting from cooling tower operations.

No routine monitoring programs are required to iniplement this condition.

4.2 Environmental Monitoring 4.2.1 Aquativ Monitoring The certifications and permits required under the Clean Water Act provide mechanisms for ,

protecting water quality and, indirectly, aquatic biota. The NRC will rely on the decision 1 made by the State of Georgia under the authority of the Clean Water Act for any I requirements for aquatic monitoring.

4.2.2 Terrestrial Monitoring Terrestrial monitoring is not required.

4.2.3 Maintenance of Transmission Line Corridors The use of herbicides within the Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant transmission line corridors shall conform to the approved use of selected herbicides as registered by the Environmental Protection Agency and approved by the State of Georgia authorities and applied as directed on the herbicide label.

Records shall by maintained in accordance with EPA or State of Georgia requirements by the Georgia Power Company's Transmission Operating and Maintenance Department l concerning herbicide use. Such records shall be made readily available to the NRC upon request. There shall be no routine reporting requirement associated with this condition.
