   .(                    On April 29, 1983 Duke Power Company tendered to NRC Construction Pemits' i                     numbered CPPR-167, CPPR-168, and CPPR-169 for Cherokee Nuclear Station Units 1, 2, and 3.           That transmittal included Duke Power Company's Stabiliza-tion Plan for the Cherokee site. They requested that NRC delete the dockets for those projects. The Environmental Engineering Section (EES) has started reviewing the Stabilization Plan at the request of the Division of Licensing.                                     -

This memorandum identifies infomation EES will need to complete its review.

We have reviewed requests to teminate several other projects. From this i ; experience we have developed a draft list (Enclosure 1) of the general infonna-

                        . tion which EES considers in reviewing a request to teminate a project. We have examined the Cher6kee submittal for completeness as measured against the items on the list. Among the items that are still needed for Cherokee is a site plan showing the features identified in items 1 and 2 of the list. These features

's i are described in the Duke plan. However, showing locations on a drawing will be helpful.. Secondly, more specific schedules for activities noted under items 2, 4, and 5 of Enclosure 1 should be provided. Finally, the interest of other pemitting , agencies shoul.: be identified as requested by item 6.

SUBJECT:

PROCEDURE FOR CANCELLING CP'S FOR HARTSVILLE B,1&2, AND PHIPPS BEND 1&2 NPP , -y As you requested by note dated November 9, 1982, we have reviewed your memorandum related to procedures for cancelling the captioned'TVA facilities

    ",                       and have the following suggestions.

i Based on our experience at Bailly and Black Fox, we believe NRC's responsibility under NEPA can be met by assuring that an applicant proposing cancellation of a CP take the steps necessary to avoid future offsite environmental impacts resulting from construction activities.and that any detrimental visual impact be reduced to a minimum. The procedure should be written in such a way that an applicant execute the required measures in a timely manner for NRC's final inspection and disposition.

  ]                          During the recent Black Fox exercise, we provided criteria from which the i ;                           applicant devised a site disposition plan. The applicant's plan for with-
    -                        drawal of CP was evaluated by personnel from EEB's terrestrial ecology section .

for adequacy. A site visit ensured that all potential environmental impacts were addressed and that proposed mitigative actions could be executed in a timely manner. - { With regard to Hartsville and Phipps Bend, a disposition plan should be prepared for each site. The plans should identify all disturbed areas and , provide specific corrective measures that will be taken. For example, all-disturbed areas should be stabilized to prevent soil erosion; solid waste and any toxic materials should be disposed of according to EPA regulations and local ordinances; and temporary structures should be dismantled unless they will be part of the future use of the site. Details of the plan should ' include, but not necessarily be limited to the following: (1) Provide the actual hectares or acres for each land use/ land cover type. Disturbed areas should be described in terms of land use/ land cover type and the hectares or acres

                                                                                          -                 . '         a    ,,   s
                                                                              &M(91No @e7( & / c-i E /27

Albert Sc%encer DEC 8 1982 displaced, e.g., the number of acres of famland used for temporary facilities; the r.aber of acres of pasture used-to construct a cooling pond or towers; the nasaber of acres of woodland cut to build a railroad spur, etc. Specify the stage of construction by plant component if appropriate, e.g.. ' percentage completion of power block, transmission system. l switchyard and rights-of-way cleamd, water supply system installed and operational, etc. Identify those modifications which, by their nature, preclude other land uses, e.g., a rip-rapped barge slip, a large cooling pond, the creation of i a reservoir by damming a river, etc. i (2) Describe how the site will be redressed to control offsite ' envimnmental impacts. This should be done for each disturbed portion of the site, e.g., the disposition of piled topsoil, restoration of laydown areas, and reseeding i to control soil erosion. If plans include future utiliza-

                 - .. tion of disturbed areas for other purposes, they should be described.

(3) Describe plans for future use of the site. Specify those site modifications which are compatible with the planned use, e.g., the excavation for the containment building may be used in the construction of a fossil fuel electric generating plant, and those which are not, e.g., the engineered drainage system may have to be modified to accMate a

.                        planned industrial complex etc. Also, state what will be done with those modifications not compatible with future use, e.g., the cement plant will be dismantled, the area will be
               -         graded and seeded.                                                                .

We recomend that this procedure be adopted for all subsequent CP withdrawal actions. ygc,tg ug.:::. .. .- -
