i ATTACHMENT TO ANSWER SHEET C4 i

Wolf Creek: The licensee recently obtained a permit from the Corps of Engineers to dredge the j

ultimate heat sink. Prior to receiving the permit, the archeological impact of the project was reviewed by the Konson State Historical Society, Cultural Retources Division, and found to j

incur no adverse impact. Ad$tionally, the licensee is planning to construct a wetlands dike upstream of the UH8. To assess the impact of the project, the Konson state Historical Society reviewed the proposed activity and recommended on archeological review. After_ toview of i

additional information by the historical society,. hey concluded that the proposed activity was soooptable and would not impact archeological resources, j

Diablo Canyon: The licensee performed two database INorature searches and fleid studies to j

assess and confirm that no archeological resources were in two areas of proposed repair work.

i The first proposed work area was along an already existing socess road that was damaged.

during a storm. - The area had been previously surveyed and added to a database which showed no archeological resources in the vicinity of the proposed work area. The information i

was confirmed by the subsequent field study. Therefore, the repair work was determined not to impact archeological resources. The second database search was performed in September l

1997 to determine if archeological resources were present in the vicinity of proposed mudslide repair work on a second road. The database search revealed that the area had been previously surveyed and contained two archeological sites. A follow up fold study to confirm the presence of the two sites was performed in November 1997. Currently, the licensee is considering possible altomatives on how to perform the necessary repairs without impacting i

either of the two sites.
