2) Average discharge from from the River Water Intake Structure sump discharge is -1,250 gpm. This is an intermittent flow.

3) Blowdown of the cooling tower system is required to maintain proper chemical balance. Cooling tower blowdown flow is intermittent, and is typically performed for a period of 3 to 5 hours each day. Average flows for Unit 1 and Unit 2 are -710,000 gallons per event and 730,000 gallons per event, respectively.

4) The sewage treatment plant has a maximum capacity of -4,200 gpm.

5) The discharges of once-through cooling service water from each unit are combined and carried to the Main Combined Facility Discharge. Other various flows discharge at this point as well (cooling tower blowdown, steam generator blowdown, liquid radwaste system, etc.). The Main Combined Facility Discharge averages a flow of -56,360 gpm.

6) During normal operation, Condensate Makeup is primarily used to replenish secondary water that is discharged via steam generator blowdown. Total steam generator blowdown for both units is 200 to 240 gpm during normal operation.

7) Reactor and auxiliary system leakages and other auxiliary building wastes which are not recyclable are processed, as necessary, to ensure that all discharges are well below the limits established by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The Liquid Radwaste System discharges in batches, and not continuously. The volume of water that is batch released during normal operation can be normalized to a continuous flow of -275 gpm for Units 1 and 2 combined.

8) The yard drainage system conveys stormwater runoff from areas associated with industrial activity to the Chattahoochee River. None of the areas discharge directly to the river, but discharge directly or indirectly to small tributaries which ultimately discharge to the Chattahoochee River. Flow is intermittent and varies according to rainfall events.

9) Groundwater is used to supply the fire protection system, the potable water system, and other small miscellaneous systems. Groundwater can be used as an alternate supply to the demin water system. Typical groundwater use is -166,300 gallons per day.

10) Service Water, which provides cooling and makeup water to both units, is withdrawn from a 95 acre service water pond which is supplied from the Chattahoochee River. During normal operation, the service water pond stores water pumped from the river prior to use.

11) The Service Water system primarily provides once-through cooling water for various plant systems. Typical flow is -36,000 gpm per unit. The majority of service water flow is used for equipment cooling in the turbine building and auxiliary building.

12) The Demin water system provides high purity water to the reactors and steam generators. Maximum installed capacity is 360 gpm, with a normal operation flow of -240 gpm.

13) Makeup to the circulating water system and cooling towers is performed as necessary to offset drift/evaporation loss and cooling tower blowdown. Normal Circulating water makeup is -29,000 gpm for both units. An additional-4,000 gpm is used per unit during periods of cooling tower blowdown.

14) The effluent from the water treatment plant complex sump and area runoff is discharged via the waste settling pond. The pond discharge is ultimately routed to the southeast yard drain. This is normally a continuous flow, but can be intermittent depending on plant operation.

The plant provides approximately 15 to 20 percent of the power available to Alabama Power customers. Service Water, which provides cooling and make-up water to both units, is withdrawn from a 95 acre Service Water Pond which is supplied from the Chattahoochee River. The FNP river water intake structure is located at the terminus of a 200 foot intake canal and delivers water from the Chattahoochee River to the Service Water Pond . During normal plant operation, the Service Water Pond stores water pumped from the river prior to use in the Service Water system. The Service Water system receives make-up from the Service Water intake structure located at the Service Water Pond. Service Water is pumped from the Service Water intake structure to the Plant to provide once-through cooling water to certain plant systems and make-up water to the water treatment plant and Circulating Water system. The Service Water Pond also provides the required cooling water storage capacity to accomplish and maintain simultaneous safe shutdown and cooldown conditions for both nuclear reactor units. The discharges of Service Water from each unit are combined and carried to the plant discharge structure (DSNOOl) by a single 60 inch diameter pipe. The FNP Circulating Water system consists of counterflow mechanical draft cooling towers which provide cooling for the main condensers. Make-up to the Circulating Water system is provided to replace water lost to cooling tower evaporation, drift, and blowdown. Blowdown is mixed with once-through Service Water and routed for discharge via DSNOO I. The water treatment plant provides high purity water to the reactors and steam generators . A 100,000 GPO sewage treatment plant provides treatment of sanitary wastes at FNP.

Description of Proposed Permit Revisions Farley Nuclear Plant The following permit revisions are requested: I. DMR Reports changed from monthly to quarterly submittals.
2. Toxicity testing changed to allow grab composite sampling. This would maintain consistency with other ADEM NPDES permits issued to Alabama Power Company owned steam electric power plants.

3. River water sumps (DSN 022 and DSN 023) sampling changed from pH and flow estimate on a 6 month frequency to monthly visual inspection. Analytical data previously collected and reported to ADEM for these outfalls demonstrates consistent water quality. This potential change was discussed with the ADEM representative during the most recent NPDES inspection at the facility ,
and it is believed that regular visual inspections would be sufficient to identify any adverse changes in water quality based on the limited industrial activity that occurs at the river water intake structure. EPA Form 2C Attachment 4 - Proposed Permit Revisions Page 1 of 1

Materials Management Practices Farley Nuclear Plant There have been no significant quantities of hazardous materials or wastes at FNP over the past three (3) years which have been treated, stored, or disposed in a manner which would result in exposure to stormwater and / or contamination of stormwater runoff. The following FNP procedures address management of hazardous materials and hazardous wastes and provide guidance relative to prevention of contamination resulting from contact with stormwater.
FNP-O-AP-60 Oil Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan, Hazardous Waste Contingency Plan FNP-O-CCP-900 Hazardous Waste Holding Area Requirements FNP-O-CCP-901 Shipping of Hazardous Wastes FNP-O-CCP-904 Receipt and Identification of Industrial Wastes FNP-O-CCP-905 Chemistry Support to NMP-CH-002 NMP-CH-002 Chemical Product Control NMP-EN-602 Hazardous Waste Program NMP-SH-OI2-001 Farley Hazard Communication Program FNP-O-SHP-30 Waste Disposal FNP-O-ENV-25 Operation of the Farley Nuclear Plant Landfill FNP-O-TCP-23 Hazardous Waste Training Plan In addition to the above procedures, proactive materials management practices are employed to minimize contact of hazardous materials with stormwater including indoor storage, structural control measures, secondary containment for tanks and container storage, and materials management training. A formal Hazard Communication Program (NMP-SH-O 12-00 I) has also been implemented. A Hazardous Waste Holding Area is located at the sewage treatment plant, and a Mixed Waste Holding Area is located inside the Auxiliary Building. Hazardous Waste Satellite Accumulation Areas have been established at the Secondary Chemistry Laboratory, the Water TreaLment Plant, the Spent Battery Storage Building, the Paint Shop, and the Security Firing Range. The largest storage container at these locations is a 55-gallon drum. Additionally, an on-site Hazardous Waste Storage Area has been designated to be used in the event that the facility were to become a Large Quantity Generator. Universal Waste collection areas have been established at the warehouse and at the Turbine Building Bay. Sludge from the sewage treatment plant is removed by a contractor, and the ultimate disposal site is the Omussee Creek Treatment Plant, operated by the City of Dothan.

BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSIONS
1. The concentrations of a majority of the water quality parameters associated with biological studies varied seasonally; however, no differences that would have biological significance were detected between upstream control and downstream discharge sites.
2. Variations in phytoplankton and zooplankton densities occurred over the course of the study; however, there were no qualitative or quantitative changes in plankton communities of the adjacent Chattahoochee River that were attributable to the operation of the Farley Nuclear Plant intake.

3. Larval fish studies in the vicinity of the plant failed to indicate any significant effects of plant intake operation on larval fish in the Chattahoochee River .

4. Impingement studies at the Farley Nuclear Plant intake indicated low impingement rates were occurring relative to game and commercial species.
Impingement rates for other species were also considered insignificant relative to any effect on fish populations eXisting in the Chattahoochee River.
5. The results of biological studies of the Chattahoochee River near Farley Nuclear Plant failed to indicate any significant changes in biological communities which could be associated with intake operation.

STUDY AREA The section of the Chattahoochee River (CR) included in this study extended from River Mile 45.2 (CRM 45.2) downstream to River Mile 41.0 (CRM 41.0) (Fig. 1). The Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant is located on the banks of the Chattahoochee River between CRM 43 and 44 .. Sample station 1, located at CRM 45, is 1.5 miles below Andrews Lock and Dam and approximately one mile above the Farley Plant. Sample station 2 is located in the river water intake canal at CRM 43.8, Station 3 extended from the discharge structure to 1/2 mile downstream (CRM 43.0-43.5), and Station 4 is located in the Smith's Bend section of the river (CRM 41.0-41.5). Plankton and water samples were collected from depths of 0.3, 1, 2, 4 and 8 meters (when river depth allowed), and larval fish samples were
collected from depths of 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 meters (when river depth allowed)

This section of the Chattahoochee River is subject to a large degree of sand sedimentation so that water depth was seldom more than 4-6 meters on most dates .

WATER STUDIES Sampling Procedures Samples were collected about the middle of each month beginning in August, 1981 and continuing through January. 1983 for a total of eighteen sampling dates. Water quality variables measured at each site and depth included temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO). These measurements were made using a YSI Model 51A oxygen meter. Secchi disc visibility was also measured at each station. Water samples for chlorophyll analyses were collected with a submersible pump and hose and stored in Nalgene plastic containers. All water samples were held in ice chests for transport back to laboratory facilities located at Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama. For the analyses of chlorophyll
~ ~and
~ ~ore f' a 100 ml aliquot of water from each depth was filtered onto a 0.45 size, Millipore filter pad. macerated in a tissue grinder and the pigments extracted in 90~ acetone. Chlorophyll concentrations were estimated using the Trichromatic Method (APHA et el. 1980).
Water samples for plankton analyses were also collected with a submersible pump and hose apparatus. For phytoplankton analysis. a 500 ml water sample was collected at each depth and placed in a one liter flat-bottomed Nalgene jar containing 18 ml of merthiolate preserving solution. Zooplankton samples were collected at each depth by pumping 80 liters of water through a standard Wisconsin style (80 ~ mesh) plankton net. Zooplankters were washed from the net bucket into 100 ml Nalgene plastic containers and preserved in 5% formalin. Plankton samples were counted and identified using Sedgwick-Rafter counting chambers following the procedures recommended by Weber (1973) .

Plankton data reported by station and depth include standing crops for phytoplankton and zooplankton. By station, data included chlorophyll concentrations, dominant plankters and for zooplankton communities, species diversity (a) and equitability (e) values .

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Water Variables Secchi Disc Readings Light transmission through the water was measured by Secchi disc readings at each station. Visibility as measured by the Secchi disc provides an estimate of turbidity. When the turbidity in the river is not due primarily to suspended sediment, Secchi disc readings correlate well with phy toplankton density. Summaries of the Secchi disc visibility data are provided in Table 1. The limited visibility of waters near the Farley Nuclear Plant result from two primary sources: 1) the high degree of turbulence in the river as a result of hydroelectric power generation through Walter F. George Dam and the regeneration of this turbulence as the water passes through Andrews Dam;
2) the waters released from both dams contain higher standing crops of phytoplankton (which will reduce visibility giving lower Secchi disc readings) than would normally be encountered in a river transporting as much sediment as the Chattahoochee.
There is no evidence from visibility data provided by the Secchi disc readings that the intake or discharge from the Farley Nuclear Plant caused any change in the sediment or phytoplankton load of the waters in this reach of the Chattahoochee River. Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) Temperature and DO content in the water column at each station are shown in Tables 2 and 3. Additionally, temperature profiles of the water column at each station are provided on Figures 3-20 and 22-36 of plankton standing
crops. These data show the seasonal variability expected for water temperatures, but no indication of significant variations between stations

or depths on a given sampling date. There was no evidence from the study that indicated any change in temperature or DO concentration associated with the intake or discharge from the Farley Nuclear Plant. Summary of Water Variables The watershed upstream from the stretch of the Chattahoochee River studied provides an excess sediment load (primarily sand) to the water. Deposition and erosion of the sandy river bottom in the region of the Farley Nuclear Plant is a continuous process that resulted in decreasing water depths following channel dredging operations. Because of the close proximity of the nuclear plant to Andrews Dam and Walter F. George Dam, this reach of the river is essentially like a modified tailrace below a major river impoundment.
Water temperature and dissolved oxygen content measured on each sampling trip indicated that within this stretch of the river these water quality variables were favorable for the support of aquatic life.
discharged by the Farley Nuclear Plant were at no time observed to The waters appreciably alter temperature or dissolved oxygen values. Secchi disc visibility of the water at each station on all dates sampled also indicated no unfavorable conditions for the support of aquatic communities .

Plankton Studies Phytoplankton Mean phytoplankton abundance by group (algal division) and chlorophyll
~ concentrations for the 18 month study are shown in Figure 2. The vertical distribution of phytoplankton in the water column, temperature profiles and mean chlorophyll ~ ~ and ~ concentrations for each station and date are shown in Figures 3 through 20. Data on numerical dominance by phytoplankton group (algal division) and species appear in Tables 4 and 5, respectively.
Mean chlorophyll ~ values ranged from a low of 2.6 mg/m 3 in September of 1982 to a high of 12.1 mg/1 3 in October of 1981 (Fig. 2). Winter and spring phytoplankton communities were dominated by diatoms (Chrysophyta) mostly, except for one date when green algae (Chlorophyta) were dominant (Fig. 2 and Table 4). The diatoms were mostly
various unidentified pennate and centric diatoms (Table 5). The summer and fall samples were dominated by various green and blue-green (Cyanophyta) algae.
During the warm months of July, August and September 1982, blue-green blooms dominate phytoplankton (Fig. 2). The phytoplankton standing crops in this reach of the Chattahoochee River are higher than similar riverine habitats around Alabama. This is attributable to the influence of pools formed by Walter F. George Lock and Dam and Columbia Lock and Dam, both located upstream from the Farley Nuclear Plant. The vertical distribution of phytoplankters in the water column was relatively uniform. Between stations the phytoplankton distribution patterns, densities and chlorophyll concentrations were remarkedly similar on any given date (Figs. 3-20).

pennate diatoms (Table 5). distans, Cyclotella spp. and various unidentified Dominant green algae included Chlamydomonas sp., several species of Scenedesmus and Ankistrodesmus convolutus. Blue-green algae were dominated by Spirulina laxa, Radhidiopsis sp., Oscillatoria angustissima, Lyngbya sp. and Gomphosphaeria sp. (Table 5). Seasonal shifts in dominance were observed but no biologically significant differences between stations were detected on any given date. Results of this study failed to demonstrate any measurable quali tative or quantitative effects of the operation of the Farley Nuclear Plant on phytoplankton communities in this reach of the Chattahoochee River .

Zooplankton Zooplankton densities (by group) for the 18-month study appear in Figure 21. The vertical distribution of zooplankters in the water column and temperature profile for each station and date appear in Figures 22 through 36. The three numerically dominant taxa in each zooplankton group for each station and date appear in Table 6. Mean density, numbers of taxa, diversity (a) and equitability (e) for zooplankton collections on each date appear in Table 7. Rotifers dominated zooplankton communities on all dates with cladoceran and copepod density usually much lower (Fig. 21). Zooplankton density ranged from a low of 51 organisms/liter during October 1982 to a high of 560 organisms/liter the following month (November). The data in Figure 21 show that rotifer density exhibited much greater fluctuation during
the l8-month study than the other two groups. Based on results of plankton studies conducted in comparable streams in Alabama, zooplankton standing crops in this reach of the Chattahoochee River were considerably higher than expected. This again was apparently due to the influence of the pools above Walter F. George and Columbia Lock and Dam upstream from the study area.
The vertical distribution of zooplankters at each station reflects the tendency of these organisms to migrate up and down in the water column (Figs. 22-36). A comparison of the data in these figures generally shows that rotifers were more uniformly distributed in the water column than copepods and cladocerans. Both copepods and cladocerans have a greater tendency to migrate vertically than do rotifers, often occurring in greater numbers well below the surface of the water. Patterns of distribution varied considerably betwen dates but variations between stations on any given date
were minimal .
The most abundant and frequently occurring zooplankters in each major group were:
- 40
rotifers--Keratella cochlearis, Polyarthra spp., Synchaeta spp. and Brachionus spp.; copepods--immature copepods and Cyclops spp.; cladocerans--Bosmina longirostris, Bosminopsis deitersi, Diaphanosoma SOD. and Ceriodaphnia lacustris (Table 6). Diversity (a) and equitability (e) indices were strikingly similar at all stations on any given date (Table 7). The variations in a and e between dates were apparently due to seasonal changes in environmental conditions. Diversity of a hypothetical community consisting of 100 organisms evenly divided among ten taxa would be a a = 3.32 and an e = 1.43, whereas a community of 100 organisms with 90 in one taxon and 10 in the other would have a a = 0.47 and an e = 0.75. Based on the results of this study, there appears to be no evidence
that the operation of the Farley Nuclear Plant has had measurable adverse effects on zooplankton communities in this reach of the Chattahoochee River .

Fishes in the Chattahoochee River near Farley Nuclear Plant can be classified generally as warm-water species which will spawn anywhere the habitat is suitable. Studies to determine the densities and types of larvae in the vicinity of the plant were conducted every two weeks during the period March through June, 1982.
Larval fish collected during the study were obtained from four sample areas in the vicinity of the plant. Sample stations included: (11 an upstream station located approximately 0.9 miles above the plant intake; (2) an intake canal sample station; (3) a discharge sample station; and (4) a downstream station located approximately two miles below the plant discharge. Samples were collected at depths of 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 meters. (Sampling at the 4.5 meter depth was dependent upon sufficient water depth). Samples were obtained by towing a plankton net with attached flowmeter and represent larvae obtained from approximately 100 cubic meters of water. Larval fish densities were computed for each sample area and sample date during the study period. Table 8 provides the number of cubic meters sampled, total larvae per cubic meter, and the taxonomic identification of larvae for each sample area and depth. Table 8 shows that the Clupeidae (herring family), which includes the shad, represented the dominant taxonomic group in all sample areas during the study. The groups less represented during the study were the Castostomidae, Centrarchidae and Cyprinidae. A total of 184 larvae were collected during the 1982 study period. The number and percent of the total represented by each of the previously mentioned groups is as follows: Clupeidae, 175/95.1%; Catostomidae, 2/1.1~; Centrarchidae, 4/2.2~; Cyprinidae
1/0.5%; and Unidentified, 2/1.1~. An attempt to describe the distribution of larvae in each of the four sample areas, based on taxonomic differences, could only be conjectural based on the numbers and percentages listed above.

4IIt The low densities of non-Clupeids is probably due to lack of suitable spawning habitat in the vicinity of the plant. The extremely unstable sand and gravel bottom of the Chattahoochee River in the vicinity of the plant and the 0.6 to 0.9 meter per second velocities resulting from a narrow river channel and operation of Andrews Dam (located approximately 0.5 miles above the upstream sample station) make this portion of the river under study poor spawning habitat, especially for those species which build nests or require semi-lentic spawning conditions. The average number of larvae collected from each sample area, during each sample period, is presented in Table 9. Temperature and dissolved oxygen data collected during each of the larval fish sample periods are presented in Table 10. Larval fish studies conducted in the Chattahoochee River near 4IIt Farley Nuclear Plant during 1982 indicated poor spawning success for fishes other than the Clupeidae. Unstable bottom conditions resulting from high river velocities and associated operation of Andrews Lock and Dam are expected to be the primary contributing factors for low larval densities. Data collected during the study did not indicate that any differences among the three areas could be attributed to plant operation. but were closely tied to variations 1n natural environmental conditions in that portion of the river under study. The results of the 1982 larval fish study. which was designed to evaluate the effects of two unit operation at the Farley Nuclear Plant, failed to indicate any significant effects of plant operation on larval fish in the Chattahoochee River. 4IIt - 67

Fish and other aquatic organisms impinged on intake screens were collected for one continuous 24-hour period every two weeks during the study. Organisms impinged during the 24-hour sample periods were obtained by passing the effluent from the screen wash system through a collection basket. Fish collected during the study were identified and individually counted, weighed and measured. The weights of fish were obtained as previously noted, with the exception of small shad (Oorosoma spp), which were weighed in aggregate in order to increase the accuracy of weight determinations for this species. Impingement data were collected on 26 sample periods during the 12-month study. Impingement data collected during the study are presented in Table 11, which includes the number and weight of each species collected ~ during each of the 24-hour sample periods. Impingement monitoring at Farley Nuclear Plant resulted in the collection of 14,103 aquatic organisms (see totals in Table 11). The clam Corbicula fluminea and the Clupidae (including gizzard and threadfin shad) were the most numerous of the organisms collected. The Corbicula and shad accounted for 6.49% and 91.50%, respectively, of the total organisms collected during the study. Thus, thes~ two groups, collectively, represented 97.99~ of all organisms collected during the 12-month study. Aquatic organisms collected during the impingement study were divided into three general categories which included game species, commercial species, and other species. Organisms collected during the impingement studies, and classified as previously described, are presented in Table 12. The total number and weight of each species collected are presented, as well as the estimated daily and annual impingement rates for each species identified. The estimated annual impingement rates for game, commercial, - 72 other fish species, and Corbicula (see Table 12) were determined to be 723; 2383; 166,756 and 12,565, respectively. The estimated annual impingement rate of 166,756, as shown for the classification of other fish species, includes an impingement estimate of 166,212 for the Clupeidae. Thus, the estimated annual impingement rate for all non-Clupeid species of fish is 3,650. The estimated annual weight of fish impinged on intake screens was determined to be 50.27 pounds (22.80 kg.) for game species, 156.06 pounds (70.79 kg.) for commercial species, 1390.66 pounds (630.80 kg.) for other fish species, and 33.22 pounds (15.07 kg.) for Corbicula. The Clupeidae account for 1353.65 pounds (614.02 kg.), thus the estimated annual impingement rate for non-Clupeid species of fish is 243.34 pounds (110.38 kg.). The estimated annual weight for all organisms impinged on intake screens was determined to be 1630.21 pounds (739.46 mg.). The distribution of fishes and shellfish over the 26 sample periods is presented in Figure 37. Most of the fish collected during the impingement study occurred during the late winter and early spring. The impingement of fish during this period has been seen at other power plants throughout the State and is thought to be related to increased movement of fishes associated with feeding and spawning behavior. Impingement rates for Corbicula were relatively constant throughout the study with the exception of the period late June to early July, during which significantly larger numbers were observed. Table 13 and Figure 38 present the minimum and maximum rates of water withdrawal which could have occurred through the intake system during each of the impingement sample periods. Average flow rates for each 24-hour period could not be obtained since available information on pump operation was limited to the number of pumps running in continuous mode and the number of pumps set
in the automatic mode. Thus, the data in Table 13 shows flows known to occur (minimum flows) and flows which could have occurred (maximum

The rate of water withdrawal did not appear to be related to impingement rates for fish, with the peak. impingement rates occurring during a period of relatively low intak.e flow rates. The peak impi ngement rates for Corbi cul a di d occur duri n9 a period of high flow rates. However, tak.ing into cons*ideration the relatively low rate of impin9ement for Corbicula during other periods that had equally high rates of flow, this peak was assumed to be coincidental. The results of impingement studies at the Farley Nuclear Plant indicate that the removal of fish and other crquatic organisms from the Chattahoochee RiVer is suffiCiently low that no sigriifical1t hann to aquatic cOlTlJlun i ties is expe£tea to occur. Impingement' rates for game spec-ies were determined to be extremely low; The estimated . daily impingement rate for game species of 2.17 is less than 5% of the daily creel limn' per fishennen
for sunfish, as set by the Alabama Depa.rtment of Resources.
Con~e\"vation &"Natural The impingement rate , for coawnertial species was' also: considered to be low, with an estimated daily rate of 7.16 , fish. Bi'01og.1cal studies conducted near Farley Nuclear Plant prior ' to* a,nd during trre first' year of operation of Unit #1 indicated that threadfin shad; , gizzard stIa.d,and Corbicula represent' the , majority of aquatic organisms living ' in the v1c'l nity of the plant. Thus, impingement rates for shad and ' Corbicula, while ' appearing relatively high in comparison to impingement' rates for other groups, are not considered sufficiently high to ' cause any dettimental effects to populations of these species.

Drainage from containment areas is strictly controlled by procedure to ensure accumulated rainwater is not contaminated with the stored material prior to release. Site Drainage System A system of pipes, concrete culverts, and spillways is utilized to collect and channel stormwater tlow in areas where high flows pose significant potential for erosion . Use of Grass Swales. Vegetation / Revegetation of Eroded Areas Natural grass swales are utilized when appropriate for drainage of sheet flow runoff from large areas of the site. This promotes infiltration and minimizes erosion by slowing runoff velocity. Eroded or newly disturbed areas are promptly vegetated to prevent soil contamination of runoff; alternatively, rip-rap may be used to slow runoff velocity and minimize erosion.

As a result, data from the previous Form 2F sampling event (May 2005) was used to complete Form 2F for this permit renewal. There is limited stormwater exposure to industrial activity at Farley Nuclear Plant, as described in other anachments, and the quality of storm water runoff across the facility is consistent and not subject to significantly change due to operations at the facility. Southern Nuclear believes that the analytical data obtained in May 2005 and provided in this application remains representative of the quality of stormwater runoff that occurs at Farley Nuclear Plant. If ADEM disagrees with this assertion, Southern Nuclear will resume attempts to sample a qualifying event upon request from the agency . Storm water can be sampled from anyone of the numerous storm drains around the plant power block. Each storm drain is representative of the quality of stormwater runoff associated with industrial activity at Farley Nuclear Plant. Both manual grab and composite samples were collected in accordance with EPA methodology during a qualifying rainfall event. The stormwater drainage system at Farley Nuclear Plant is evaluated for non-stormwater discharges by: I. Review of drainage drawings,
2. Plant walkdowns, and

3. Interviews of maintenance, engineering, and operations personnel.
