Subject:
Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station Docket No. 50-395 Operating License No. NPF-12 Fish Kill August 4, 1989
Dear Mr. Krecker:
South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G) herein submits a report concerning a fish kill in the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear. Station (VCSNS) discharge bay which occurred on August 4, 1989. The enclosed report describes the current event and probable cause. Also, per discussions with yourself and representatives from the South Carolina Department of Wildlife
& Marine Resources on July 31, 1989, SCE&G will submit an action plan by August 31, 1989.
In accordance with the VCSNS Operating License NPF-12, Appendix B, a copy of this raport is being provided to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Additionally, a' copy of this report will also be provided to the South Carolina Department of Wildlife & Marine Resources per the request of Mr. H.
J. Logan, Chief of Fisheries.
Should you require any further information, please contact Mr. Uharles McKinney of my staff at your convenience.
Very truly yours, O. S. Bradham EWR/OSB: led Attachment c: M. B. Williams Document Control l(NRC)- e W. R. Baehr R. L. Prevatte S. E. Summer NPCF W. R. Higgins RTS (ONO 890067)

[ August 4,1989)
On the morning of August 4,1989, a fish kill was discovered in the circulat discharge bay of the V.C. Summer Nuclear Station (see Figure 1). A total of 8 were found floating in the bay, all of which were examined, measured, and identif species. Table 1 shows numbers, species, and size ranges of fish observed o and for several daya thereafter. All of the dead fish found on August 4th were found discharge bay; none were found in the discharge canal or in the open water of Mont Reservoir. All of the dead fish were badly decomposed, suggesting that the kill occur some time on the previous day, the third of August. No freshly-killed or moribund fish were observed. None of the fish examined showed any indication of trauma, disea poisoning. Dissolved oxygen levels in the discharge bay ranged from 4.8 - 5.3 mg morning of August 4, too high to have been the cause of the kill.
There were no fluctuations in power levels at the V.C. Summer Station in the day to, during, and after the kill. Summer Station operated at or near 100% power over the 8 1-89 through 8-4-89 time period. Condenser outlet temperatures (see Appendix I) from 106.0*F to 109.0*F over the 8-1-89 to 8-4-89 period. Temperatures at the bottom the discharge bay showed more extreme daily fluctuations, however, and on Aug 1989 they increased from 97'F at 1400 hours0.0162 days <br />0.389 hours <br />0.00231 weeks <br />5.327e-4 months <br /> to 108'F at 2200 hours0.0255 days <br />0.611 hours <br />0.00364 weeks <br />8.371e-4 months <br />. Instantaneous temperatures as high cs 110*F were seen late in the evening (2000-2300 hours) on 8-3-8 A previous fish kill report (supplied to SCDHEC on 7-20-89) discussed the effect of Fairfield Pumped Storage Facility operations on Monticello Reservoir lake levels and pointed out the relationship between low lake levels and high water temperature in the discharge bay. On 8-3-89, a 3.8 foot drop in the lake level (0800 - 2000 hours0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br />) was associated with an 11*F increase in average temperatures at the bottom of the dis bay.
Given the history of thermally-related fish kills at Summer Station and the absence of any other likely causes, it appears that the August 4,1989, fish kill was caused by temperature fluctuations at the bottom of the discharge bay on the third of August.
