Page 2 of21 Permit No. MO-009800 1 FACILITY DESCRIPTION Outfall #001 - Radwaste Treatment System - SIC #4911 (Piped to Missouri River)

This liquid radwaste system serves to collect, process, store, recycle and discharge treated waste water generated at Callaway. In addition, radioactive solids removed by this system are prepared for disposal and transported to a licensed off site disposal facility.

Five general sub-systems can be defined as described below.

The Boron Recycle System receives reactor coolant for the purpose of recovering the boric acid for reuse in the plant. Boric acid is used as a neutron absorber/moderator in the primary loop.

The Liquid Radwaste System collects and processes floor and equipment drains from the containment, auxiliary building, fuel building and radwaste buildings during normal operation.

The Laundry and Hot Shower system collects waste generated from washing radioactively contaminated protective gear and clothing and personnel decontamination shower wastewater. These wastes are then transferred to the liquid Radwaste system for treatment.

The Secondary Liquid Waste system is used to process condensate demineralizer regeneration wastes and potentially radioactive liquid waste collected from the turbine building. The condensate demineralizer regeneration waste is divided into two waste streams; High TDS waste from the acid and caustic rinses used when chemically regenerating spent resin, and low TDS waste which results from the initial backflushing of unregenerated resin and the final rinsing of the regenerated resin to remove acid and caustic.

Steam Generator Blowdown is normally recycled back to the main condenser for reuse in the secondary cycle. Provisions also exist to discharge the treated blowdown via #001.

The following wastewater treatment systems are used as required to treat this waste stream for recycle or discharge in compliance with NRC requirements and are also available as auxiliary or backup treatment systems to treat this discharge for compliance with NPDES permit limitations: Evaporation and/or Mixing and/or Filtration and/or Carbon Absorption and/or Ion Exchange and/or Neutralization and/or Reuse/Recycle of Treated Effluent. All processing in the Radwaste Treatment System is done on a batch basis except steam generator blowdown. After monitoring for radioactive content, release rates are controlled administratively to ensure the "as low as practicable" radioactive discharge criteria are met.

Daily average flow is 0.027 MGD.

Daily maximum flow is 0.298 MGD Legal

Outfall #002 - Cooling Tower Blowdown: (Piped to Missouri River)

Daily average flow is 4.84 MGD.

Daily maximum flow is 14.4 MGD.

This outfall consists of water from the Circulating Water System, the Service Water System, and the Essential Service Water (ESW)

System. Blowdown from the cooling tower is necessary to maintain the dissolved solids concentration in the recirculating water system within acceptable operating limits. The ESW System is not routinely used, however water from the ESW System does mix with the other systems as it is periodically run to demonstrate operability. Additionally, the ESW System can be used to maintain proper freeboard in the ultimate heat sink pond (see Outfall #017 description) by transferring water to the Service Water System.

Daily average flow is 0.0 MGD.

Daily maximum flow is 1.645 MGD.

(These flows represent wastewater discharged to the settling basin, actual discharge will vary depending on recycle.)Outfall recycle. )Outfall #003 consists of supernatant from a wastewater treatment lagoon that treats wastewater to remove solids. The wastewater that is treated in the lagoon is mainly from the blowdown of accumulated river solids in the water treatment plant clarifiers. The sand and carbon filter backwash, oil water separator and demineralizer system wastewater is also routed to this treatment lagoon. The oil water separator flow consists of wastewater from some plant sumps as well as flow from an oil recovery well that is being used to remediate a historic on-site release. Outfall #003 is normally recycled by routing it back to the head of the water treatment plant.

Once in 10 year rainfall event is 38.5 MGD.

These five outfalls discharge storm water runoff from plant and associated areas after treatment in settling ponds. "Non-process" discharges that will be discharged to SWR include three intermittent sources. Two sources are the quarterly testing of the fire protection drains and the infrequent draining of the demineralized water storage tank. The third source is the pumping of manholes, transformer and tank containments at the plant. These outfalls will be under a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan for this permit cycle, so no actual monitoring will take place.

Missouri Department of Natural Resources FACT SHEET FOR THE PURPOSE OF RENEWAL OF MO-0098001 AMEREN UE, CALLAWAY POWER PLANT The Federal Water Pollution Control Act ("Clean Water Act" Section 402 Public Law 92-500 as amended) established the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program. This program regulates the discharge of pollutants from point sources into the waters of the United States, and the release of storm water from certain point sources. All such discharges are unlawful without a permit (Section 301 of the "Clean Water Act"). After a permit is obtained, a discharge not in compliance with all permit terms and conditions is unlawful. Missouri State Operating Permits (MSOPs) are issued by the Director of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (department) under an approved program, operating in accordance with federal and state laws (Federal "Clean Water Act" and "Missouri Clean Water Law" Section 644 as amended). MSOPs are issued for a period of five (5) years unless otherwise specified.

As per [40 CFR Part 124.8(a)] and [10 CSR 20-6.020(1)2.] a Factsheet shall be prepared to give pertinent information regarding the applicable regulations, rationale for the development of effluent limitations and conditions, and the public participation process for the Missouri State Operating Permit (operating permit) listed below.

Part IV - Rationale and Derivation of Effluent Limitations & Permit Conditions ALTERNATIVE EVALUATIONS FOR NEW FACILITIES:

As per [10 CSR 20-7.015(4)(A)], discharges to losing streams shall be permitted only after other alternatives including land application, discharges to a gaining stream and connection to a regional wastewater treatment facility have been evaluated and determined to be unacceptable for environmental and/or economic reasons.

~;

Not Applicable [gI; The facility does not discharge to a Losing Stream as defined by [10 CSR 20-2.010(36)] & [10 CSR 20-7.031 (1 )(N)], or is an existing 20-7.031(1)(N)],

facility.

ANTI-BACKSLIDING:

A provision in the Federal Regulations [CWA §303(d)(4); CWA §402(c); 40 CFR Part 122.44(1)] that requires a reissued permit to be as stringent as the previous permit with some exceptions.

~ - All limits in this Factsheet are at least as protective as those previously established; therefore, backsliding does not apply.

[gI ANTIDEGRADATION:

In accordance with Missouri's Water Quality Standard [10 CSR 20-7.031(2)], the department is to document by means of Antidegradation Review that the use of a water body's available assimilative capacity is justified. Degradation is justified by documenting the socio-economic importance of ofaa discharging activity after determining the necessity of the discharge.

~ - Renewal - no degradation proposed and no further review necessary.

[gI ApPLICABLE PERMIT PARAMETERS:

Effluent parameters contained in Factsheets and Missouri State Operating Permits are obtained from Technology Based Effluent Limit (TBEL), Missouri's Effluent Regulations [10 CSR 20-7.015], Missouri's Water Quality Standards [10 CSR 20-7.031], previous Missouri State Operating Permits, and from Operating Permit Applications.

BIQ-SOLIDS, SLUDGE, & & SEWAGE SLUDGE:

Bio-solids are solid materials resulting from wastewater treatment that meet federal and state criteria for beneficial uses (i.e. fertilizer).

Sludge is any solid, semi-solid, or liquid waste generated from a municipal, commercial, or industrial wastewater treatment plant, water supply treatment plant, or air pollution control facility or any other such waste having similar characteristics and effect. Sewage sludge is solids, semi-solids, or liquid residue generated during the treatment of domestic sewage in a treatment works; including but not limited to, domestic septage; scum or solids removed in primary, secondary, or advanced wastewater treatment process; and a material derived from sewage sludge. Sewage sludge does not include ash generated during the firing of sewage sludge in a sewage sludge incinerator or grit and screening generated during preliminary treatment of domestic sewage in a treatment works.

Applicable (renewal and modifications to existing operating permits) 1:8:1; This facility has been approved to land apply as per Permit Standard Conditions III and a department approved bio-solids management plan.

COMPLIANCE AND ENFORCEMENT:

Enforcement is the action taken by the Water Protection Program (WPP) to bring an entity into compliance with the Missouri Clean Water Law, its implementing regulations, and/or any terms and conditions of an operating permit. The primary purpose of the enforcement activity in the WPP is to resolve violations and return the entity to compliance.

Not Applicable 1:8:1; The permittee/facility is not currently under Water Protection Program enforcement action.

PRETREATMENT PROGRAM:

The reduction of the amount of pollutants, the elimination of pollutants, or the alteration of the nature of pollutant properties in wastewater prior to or in lieu of discharging or otherwise introducing such pollutants into a Publicly Owned Treatment Works [40 CFR Part 403.3(q)].

Not Applicable 1:8:1; At this time, the permittee is not required to implement and enforce a Pretreatment Program.

REMOVAL EFFICIENCY:

Removal efficiency is a method by which the Federal Regulations define Secondary Treatment and Equivalent to Secondary Treatment, which applies to Biochemical Oxygen Demand 5-day (BODs) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) for Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs). Please see the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) website for interpretation of percent removal requirements for National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit Application Requirements for Publicly Owned Treatment Works and Other Treatment Works Treating Domestic Sewage @ www.epa.gov/fedrgstrIEPA-ATERl1999/August/Day-04/w I 8866.htm W ATER/1999/

Not Applicable 1:8:1; This wastewater treatment facility is not a POTW. Influent monitoring is not being required to determine percent removal.

SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS (SSOs), AND INFLOW & INFILTRATION (1&1):

Collection systems are a critical element in the successful performance of the wastewater treatment process. Under certain conditions, poorly designed, built, managed, operated, and/or maintained systems can pose risks to public health, the environment, or both.

Causes of SSOs include, but are not limited to, the following: high levels of 1&1 during wet weather; blockages; structural, ofSSOs mechanical, or electrical failures; collapsed or broken sewer pipes; insufficient conveyance capacity; and vandalism. Effective and continuous management, operation, and maintenance, as well as ensuring adequate capacity and rehabilitation when necessary are critical to maintaining collection system capacity and performance while extending the life of the system .

. Not Applicable 1:8:1; This facility is not required to develop or implement a program for maintenance and repair of the collection system; however, it is a violation of Missouri State Environmental Laws and Regulations to allow untreated wastewater to discharge to waters of the state.

SCHEDULE OF COMPLIANCE (SOC):

A schedule of remedial measures included in a permit, including an enforceable sequence of interim requirements (actions, operations, or milestone events) leading to compliance with the Missouri Clean Water Law, its implementing regulations, and/or the terms and conditions of an operating permit.

Not Applicable ~;

This permit does not contain a soc.

STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN (SWPPP):

A plan to schedule activities, prohibitions of practices, maintenance procedures, and other management practices to prevent or reduce the pollution of waters of the state. The plan may include, but is not limited to, treatment requirements, operating procedures, and practices to control facility site runoff, spiIlage spillage or leaks, sludge or waste disposal, or drainage from raw material storage.

Applicable ~;

A SWPPP shall be developed and implemented for storm water outfalls and shall incorporate required practices identified by the department with jurisdiction, incorporate erosion control practices specific to site conditions, and provide for maintenance and adherence to the plan .

.VARIANCE:

As per the Missouri Clean Water Law § 644.061.4, variances shall be granted for such period of time and under such terms and conditions as shall be specified by the commission in its order. The variance may be extended by affirmative action of the commission. In no event shall the variance be granted for a period of time greater than is reasonably necessary for complying with the Missouri Clean Water Law §§644.006 to 644.141 644.l41 or any standard, rule or regulation promUlgated pursuant to Missouri Clean Water Law §§644.006 to 644.141.

Not Applicable ~;

This operating permit is not drafted under premises of a petition for variance.

WASTELOAD ALLOCATIONS (WLA) FOR LIMITS:

As per [10 CSR 20-2.010(78)], the amount of pollutant each discharger is allowed by the department to release into a given stream after the department has determined to total amount of pollutant that may be discharged into that stream without endangering its water quality.

Not Applicable ~;

Wasteload allocations were not calculated.

WLA MODELING:

Not Applicable ~;

A WLA study was either not submitted or determined not applicable by department staff.

WHOLE EFFLUENT TOXICITY (WET) TEST:

A WET test is a quantifiable method of determining if a discharge from a facility may be causing toxicity to aquatic life by itself, in combination with or through synergistic responses when mixed with receiving stream water.

Applicable ~;

In accordance with the Clean Water Act (CWA) § 1100 1(a)(3), requiring WET testing is reasonably appropriate for site-specific Missouri State Operating Permits for discharges to waters of the state issued under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System.

Furthermore, WET testing is a means by which the department determines that [10 CSR 20-7.031(3)(D, F, & G)] are being met by the permitted facility. In addition to justification for the WET testing, WET tests are required under [10 CSR 20-6.010(8)(A)4]

20-6.01 0(8)(A)4] to be performed by specialist who are properly trained in conducting the test according to the methods prescribed by the Federal Government as referenced in [40 CFR Part 136]. l36]. WET test will be required by all facilities meeting the following criteria:

~ Facility is a designated Major.

D Facility continuously or routinely exceeds its design flow.

D Facility (industrial) that alters its production process throughout the year.

I:8l Facility handles large quantities of toxic substances, or substances that are toxic in large amounts.

I:8l Facility has Water Quality-based Effluent Limitations for toxic substances (other than NH 3 )

D Facility is a municipality or domestic discharger with a Design Flow ~ 22,500 gpd.

D Other - please justify.

303(d) LIST & TOTAL MAXIMUM DAILY LOAD (TMDL):

Section 303( d) of the federal Clean Water Act requires that each state identify waters that are not meeting water quality standards and for which adequate water pollution controls have not been required. Water quality standards protect such beneficial uses of water as whole body contact (such as swimming), maintaining fish and other aquatic life, and providing drinking water for people, livestock and wildlife. The 303( d) list helps state and federal agencies keep track of waters that are impaired but not addressed by normal water pollution control programs.

A TMDL is a calculation of the maximum amount ofa given pollutant that a body of water can absorb before its water quality is affected. If a water body is determined to be impaired as listed on the 303(d) 303( d) list, then a watershed management plan will be developed that shall include the TMDL calculation Applicable ~;

Missouri River is listed on the 2003 Missouri 303(d) List for PCBs and Chlordane.

~ - This facility is not considered to be a source of the above listed pollutant(s) or considered to contribute to the impairment of the Missouri river.

(These flows represent wastewater discharged to the settling basin, actual discharge will vary depending on recycle.) Outfall #003 consists supernatant from a wastewater treatment lagoon that treats wastewater to remove solids. The wastewater that is treated in the lagoon is mainly from the blowdown of accumulated river solids in the water treatment plant clarifiers. The sand and carbon filter backwash, oil water separator and demineralizer system wastewater is also routed to this treatment lagoon. The oil water separator flow consists of wastewater from some plant sumps as well as flow from an oil recovery well that is being used to remediate a historic on-site release. Outfall #003 is normally recycled by routing it back to the head of the water treatment plant.
