PETITION FOR REVIEW OF NPDES PERMIT NO. IL 0048313 Commonwealth Edison Company
(" Edison"), by its attorneys, petitions for review of NPDES Permit No.
IL 0048313 (the " Permit") issued April 28, 1986 by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (" Agency").
A copy of the Permit is attached to this Petition.
1.
The Permit covers discharges from the Byron Nuclear Power Station, which is located near the Rock River in Byron, Ogle County, Illinois.
One of the plant's two generating units is currently licensed and operating at a total capacity of 1120 mw (net).
Byron's second unit is expected to begin commercial operation in approximately one year and will have a similar capacity.
2.
The Permit establishes discharge limitations, monitoring and reporting requirements for the following discharge points:
i i
i
. 001 Cooling System Blowdown Line 001 (a)
Demineralizer Regenerant Waste 001(b)
Sewage Treatment Plant Effluent 001(c)
Wastewater Treatment Plant Effluent 001(d)
Radwaste Treatment System Effluent 001(e)
Construction Runoff Basin 002 Construction Runoff Basin 003 Intake Screen Backwash 3.
Edison seeks review of the Permit with respect to the individual pH limitation specified for outfall 001(a) and the type of sampling required for total suspended solids
("TSS") at outfalls ' 001(e) and 002.
The pH limitation and the sampling requirements are arbitrary, unreasonable and unwarranted in the following respects.
4.
Outfall 001(a) discharges demineralizer regenerant waste to the condenser cooling water basin, where the natural alkalinity of the non process cooling water reacts with and neutralizes the acid in the demineralizer regenerant waste.
This is a chemical reaction, not dilution.
This process of neutralization has been specifically approved in the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Final Development Document for Effluent Limitations Guidelines and Standards and Pre-treatment Standards for the Steam Electric Point Source Category.
Thus, the Agency's separate pH limitation on discharges into the cooling water basin is unreasonable and unwarranted.
5.
This limitation was not contained in any of the public notices of the proposed reissued permit.
Thus, Edison was afforded no opportunity to submit comments on this limitation.
t
--~-..
6.
Compliance with the individual pH limitation for outfall 001(a) would require the construction of new facilities.
The Permit nonetheless makes this limit effective on the f
first day the Permit is effective, May 28, 1986.
Edison t
cannot achieve compliance by that date.
The action of the i
Agency in failing to provide a reasonable compliance schedule in imposing this new limitation is arbitrary and capricious.
7.
Edison also seeks review of the type of TSS sampling required for outfalls 001(e) and 002.
Outfall 001(e) discharges from the construction runoff basis to the cooling tower closed cycle cooling system, which in turn has a blowdown to the Rock River.
Outfall 002 is an emergency overflow from the construction runoff basin to Woodland 1
Creek.
The permit requires sampling of these outfalls on a 24-hour composite basis.
This requirement is unnecessary and unreasonable.
8.
Outfall 001(e) discharges on only an intermittent basis.
It is therefore unreasonably and unnecessarily burdensome to require Edison to install a system to provide l
24-hour composite sampling.
Such a system would necessarily be flow activated and would place a burden on Edison greatly i
disproportionate to the informational benefit which would be obtained.
For such intermittent discharge, grab sampling i
would be entirely sufficient to monitor TSS and would impose a far more reasonable burden upon Edison.
)
9.
Outfall 002 is purely an emergency outfall and is seldom, if ever, expected to discharge.
For this reason, it t
t
\\
- i is unreasonable to require sampling on a 24-hour composite basis.
Again, such a sampling system would be unreasonably burdensome in proportion to the information it would yield.
Since this outfall is expected to discharge, if at all, on a very infrequent basis, grab sampling would be entirely, sufficient to monitor TSS and would impose a far more reasonable burden on Edison.
10.
For both outfalls 001(e) and 002, 24-hour composite sampling would require the design and installation of new facilities.
The permit nonetheless makes such a samoling recuirement effective for each of the two outfalls on the first day the permit is effective, May 28, 1986.
Edison cannot achieve compliance by that date.
The action of the Agency in failing to provide a reasonable compliance schedule in imposing this new limitation is arbitrary and capricious.
Respectfully submitted, COMMONWEALTH EDISON COMPANY 4
