Dear Ms. Radow:

NEW JERSEY POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS SALEM GENERATING STATION PERMIT NO. NJ0005622 Attached is the Discharge Monitoring Report for Salem Generating Station containing the information as required in Permit No.

NJ0005622 for the month of December, 1986.

The information contained in this report represents the observed results required by the Environmental Protection Agency and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, and is obtained in accordance wi th approved sampling, analysis, monitoring and reporting methods.

Due to the time constraints resulting from work related to the present and the planned outage, Documentation of the accuracy of direct versus indirect flow measurement of the cooJing water will accompany the March 1986 Discharge Monitoring Report.

Exclusion explanations are included on additional pages, Very truly yours,  !

. Explanation of exclusions December, 1985 The following exclusions are included in the attached report and explained below. Exclusions have not endangered nor significantly impacted public health or the environment.

DMR NO. EXPLANATION 48C Ammonia ( NH ) -

Average daily discharge vilue equaled 108%

of permit limit. Current facility operation is not conducive to ammonia removal.

487A BOD - Removal Efficiency -

Indicated Treatment efficiency of 79.09% does not reflect actual conditions due to the influent sample location used.

No estimate of actual efficiency is available for December.

• December, 1985 i e

• 'The following explanations are included to clarify possible deviations from permit conditions.

General - The columns labeled, "No. Ex.", on the enclosed DMR, tabulate the number of daily discharge values outside the indicated limits.

)

Data reporting and accuracy reflect the working environment, the design capabilities and reliability of the monitoring instruments and operating equipment.

All reported concentrations are based on daily discharge values.

Total residual chlorine is performed once per eight hours of chlorination unless otherwise indicated.

Analytical values which are less than detectable are reported as zero unless otherwise indicated.

Analytical results for all parameters other than pH, temperature, TSS and TRC are provided by Century Laboratories ( NJDEP certification 08153) .

48C - Clarifier - Effluent pH is reported for informational purposes only.

487,489 - Heasurements are obtained when sample acquisition proto cols are met.

> 482,485 - Samples are unobtainable due to ongoing entrainment studies and the resultant equipment configuration.

l Since all chemical treatments of or discharges to the j circulating water system are common with at least one other discharge, those values are assumed to be

! identical for all parameters.
