EXHISIT A Licuid Waste Systems
~
.t The Liquid Waste Systems include the Reactor Water Cleanup the Liquid 'Ra' waste System, and the portion of the d
- System, Radwaste Building (77.7% of the financeable cost) that is for liquid waste systems.
The Reac, tor Water Cleanup System includes pum/ps, heat
'exchangers,. filter demineralizers, strainers and tanks necessary to provide continuous purifying treatment of the, reactor water.
~
,The pcrtion of this-system that is financeable is the equipment required to collect the backwash liquid waste which would normally go to drains.
The Liquid Radwaste Syste.3 includes three primary subsystems (equipment' drains, floor drains, and che.sical waste processing) which are designed to control, collect, store, process, treat and dispose of low level radioactive liquid wastes.
This svstem was designed according-.to governmental regulations to meet radioactivity protection standards far in excess of standards necessary for safety.
A hypothetical ~ Alternate. system has, been designed which would still
- casily meet all safety standards.
This Alternate System is far less expensive to construct than the existing' system.
The portion of the Liquid Radwaste System.that is financeable is the incremental portion of the existing system's cost that is above the total cost of the Alter.. ate System.
~
I Gaseous Waste Systems The Gaseous Waste Systems include the Turbine Building Ventilation System.,and the portion of the Radwaste Building allo-i cated to gaseous waste.
The Turbine Building ventillation System consists of heating, i
ver\\tilation, and cooling systems designed to provide an environment
/3 l
with controll.ed temperature and humidity.
The portion of this j
system that is included in the financeable cost is the exhaust 2
collection and exhaust ductwork, exhaust filters, fans and radia-tion monitors.
The portion of the Radwaste Building (8.0% of the financeable cos t) that is for gaseous waste contains. systems that treat and -
l L
dispose of radioactive gaseous wastes that are generated in the i
j Radwaste Building.

I Solid Waste Systems The solid Waste Systems includel he spent resin regenerative t
portions of the Makeup Water Treatment System and the Condensate cleanup System, and parts of the Radwaste Building.
l The function of the Makeup Water Treatment System is to provide demineralized water for'the plant.
The por, tion of this y
system that is included in the financeable cost is the spent resin-i regeneration equipment.
This equipment consists of tcid tanks, caustic tank, acid and caustic transfer pumps, catic es and anions tank wastd* piping to drains, caustic dilution water heater tank 4
i and sulfuric acid day tank.
4 Equipment has been added to regenerate spent demineralizer i
resins that would otherwise be discarded as' solid radioactive I
waste.
The equipment including tanks, pumps, and valves, is financeable as solid waste equipment.
This equipment is found in the condensate cleanup system and the solid waste por' tion of the liquid radwaste system.
l The portion of the Radwaste Building (14.3% of the financeable cost) that is for solid waste contains systems that collect, store, oackage, and prepare radioactive solid waste for disposal.
Spent resin is unusable and of no value.
The company does j
I not expect to sell, or to be able to sell, spent resin at any price. _.

1 Soent Fuel Storage Facility Spent nuclear fuel and fuel 'ssemblies are stored and disposed a
l i
of in the Spent Fuel Storage Facility.
Due to curreht industry and f
regulatory conditions, spent nuclear fuel is a solid waste with no i
current value or use.
Only that portion of the fuel handling system used for spent fuel st' rage is included in the scope of the o
exempt facilities.
/
i The portions of this syste. that are included in the financeable cost are the spent fuel pool, 1: ners, high density fuel storage racks in the spent fuel pool and the additional spent fuel pool cooling and cleaning capacity required for the spent fuel pool.,'
4 i
Also included in the financeable cost of the Spent Fuel Storage a
Facility is that portion of the auxiliary building that is dedicated j
to spent fuel storage and handling.' The areas of the building that i
l are included consist of the spent fuel platform and 150 ton crane, spent fuel pool, spent fuel transfer canal, shipping cask pool, cask,,washdown area, and spent fuel cask handling area.
The rail-road car fuel cask loading bay *and equipment are also included as well as the railroad spur into the fuel building because they are I
also dedicated-to spent fuel h'andling and disposal.
The company does not expect to sell, or to be able to sell, i
j spent nuclear fuel and fuel assemblies at any price.

Enercy Service Center Sanitary System The Sanitary System consists o'tfacilities for the Energy Services Center that are designed to treat and dispose of sewage.
It is siz'ed to serve 350 persons with a load criterion of 33,947
~
gallon's per day.
The portion of this syst em that is financeable consists of M
all sanitary waste piping in the Energy Services Center and the sanitary waste pipe from the Center to the Treatment P' ant.
The Sanitary Waste Treatment Plant itself is not included n the financeable cost because it has been in service for more than a year.
