The attached comments are based on review by the appropriate New York State Agencies of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's July 1984 Draft Environmental Impact Statement related to the operation of Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit No. 2 (Docket No. 50-410, NUREG - 1085). We recommend incorporation of our concerns into the Final Environmental Impact Statement.

Comments  of the. State of  New York on the U.S. Nuc'lear Re ulator Commission's Draft Environmental m act Statement DEIS Related to the      eration of Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit        No. 2 October  ll, 1984 Section 5.3.1 indicates that only 1,000 gallons per day of City of Oswego water will be needed at the facility for potable and sanitary purposes.
This figure seems very low. The sanitary waste water treatment plant at Nine Mile Poi.nt No. 1 typically discharges over 10,000 gallons per day, and the new. waste water treatment plant for Nine Mile Point 1 and Nine Mile Point 2 has a design average flow of 120,000 gallons per day. The discrepancies in these figures should be explained.
2~  Diesel engines greater than 400 horsepower must obtain construction and operation permits pursuant to NYCRR 201. Niagara Mohawk should submit a list of al l diesel engines and their sizes to the Department of Envi ronmental Conservation,         Regi on. 7 office, P.O. Box 5170, Fi sher Avenue, Cortland, NY 13045 (Attention: Mr. Allan Coburn).
3~ Section    5.3.2:     The  water quality    certification should be revised to reflect  a  limit of    .005 milligrams per    liter residual chlorine because of the abundance of    salmonoids around the      effluent.
4~ Section 5.5.1:       The EIS should    include further discussion of the poten-tial for bird strikes        on  the cooling tower and potential mitigation measures.     There should first be a bi rd collision monitoring program to determine whether mitigation would be necessary.             Applicant should con-tact the NY State Department of Environmental Conservation (address abo-ve) to obtain a Scientific Collectors License for such a program.               The results of the study should also be sent to that office.
: 5. The Emergency    Preparedness    section 5.9.4.4(3) should include local five districts,     ambulances,   and emergency      services, since they would be directly    involved in an emergency.
: 6. The EIS should discuss the mode of transportation            and  routes which will be used to dispose of nuclear wastes.
: 7. There was not. discussion      about traffic management    relating to the opera-tion of the station in the        completed phase.
: 8. Specific details of the emergency evacuation plans should be included in the EIS, including transportation impacts.
The summary should      incorporate transportation effects.
: 9. The    appl i cant should contact          the New .York State Department of Transportation Regional Office in Syracuse to satisfy any permit requi re-ments related to transportation.         The address is:

Dear Mr. Schwencer:

The attached comments are based on review by the appropriate New York State Agencies of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's July 1984 Draft Environmental Impact Statement related to the operation of Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit No. 2 (Docket No. 50-410, NUREG - 1085). We recommend incorporation of our concerns into the Final Environmental Impact Statement.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on your Draft Environmental Impact Statement.

Si cerely yours, Louis M. Concra, Jr., Director Division of Regulatory Affairs LMC/kw cc: See Distribution List L. Marsh 8410ii

Comments of the. State of New York on the U.S. Nuc'lear Re ulator Commission's Draft Environmental m act Statement DEIS Related to the eration of Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit No. 2 October ll, 1984 Section 5.3.1 indicates that only 1,000 gallons per day of City of Oswego water will be needed at the facility for potable and sanitary purposes.

This figure seems very low. The sanitary waste water treatment plant at Nine Mile Poi.nt No. 1 typically discharges over 10,000 gallons per day, and the new. waste water treatment plant for Nine Mile Point 1 and Nine Mile Point 2 has a design average flow of 120,000 gallons per day. The discrepancies in these figures should be explained.

2~ Diesel engines greater than 400 horsepower must obtain construction and operation permits pursuant to NYCRR 201. Niagara Mohawk should submit a list of al l diesel engines and their sizes to the Department of Envi ronmental Conservation, Regi on. 7 office, P.O. Box 5170, Fi sher Avenue, Cortland, NY 13045 (Attention: Mr. Allan Coburn).

3~ Section 5.3.2: The water quality certification should be revised to reflect a limit of .005 milligrams per liter residual chlorine because of the abundance of salmonoids around the effluent.

4~ Section 5.5.1: The EIS should include further discussion of the poten-tial for bird strikes on the cooling tower and potential mitigation measures. There should first be a bi rd collision monitoring program to determine whether mitigation would be necessary. Applicant should con-tact the NY State Department of Environmental Conservation (address abo-ve) to obtain a Scientific Collectors License for such a program. The results of the study should also be sent to that office.

5. The Emergency Preparedness section 5.9.4.4(3) should include local five districts, ambulances, and emergency services, since they would be directly involved in an emergency.
6. The EIS should discuss the mode of transportation and routes which will be used to dispose of nuclear wastes.
7. There was not. discussion about traffic management relating to the opera-tion of the station in the completed phase.
8. Specific details of the emergency evacuation plans should be included in the EIS, including transportation impacts.

The summary should incorporate transportation effects.

9. The appl i cant should contact the New .York State Department of Transportation Regional Office in Syracuse to satisfy any permit requi re-ments related to transportation. The address is:

V Mr. Richard A. Lucas Regional Planning Engineer NYS Department of Transportation 333 East Washington Street Syracuse, New York 13202 (315) 428-4409
