P ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATIVE SITE VISIT GUESTIONS Question 2 Using Soil Conservation Service data, provide approximate acreages of prime and unique farmlands present on site to be disturbed by construction of plant facilities end to be covered by the cooling pond. If these areas have not yet been mapped for prime and unique farmland, provide acreages of Soil Capability Classes I,11 and Ill. Answer 2 Sites Ma-3 and Li-3 are located in counties which have not been mapped for prime and unique farmland or soil capability classes by the Soil Conservation Service and data are not available. The only information available is contained on the SCS General Soil Maps included with this response. Sites Je-3 and Bz-l do not contain any prime or unique farmlands. Although maps have not been prepared for these areas, analyses of available data indicates that the Soil Capability Class for site Bz-l is Class VI. Approximately 86 % (4128 acres) of the Je-3 site is Soil Capability Class ill W-l, level to nearly level, poorly drained soil that has a very tight subsoil. The remaining land on Je-3 ranges from Capability Class IV to Vll. The SCS General Soil Maps for Jefferson and Brazoria counties are included with this response. Information from the assessment of soils data for the Je-3 and Bz-l sites is provided in Table 02-1 on the next page.

/ ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATIVE SITE VISIT GUESTIONS Question 3 Provide a current market value for crop production and, if possible, indicate how much crop production will be reduced by construction of the proposed facility. Answer 3 Site: Bz-l Brazoric County There is no crop production on the Bz-l site. Site: Je-3 Jefferson County Aerial reconnaisscnce indicated that approximately 90% of the Je-3 site is used for growing rice. In 1977, the latest year for which complete statistics are available, the average yield per acre of rice in Jefferson County was 4,134 lb/ acre. The overage market price for rice in Texas in 1977 was $9.55/ cwt. Based upon these statistics, the average gross market value of rice per acre in Jefferson County in 1977 was $394.80. Assuming a 90% production level for the 4800-acre Je-3 site, the cross market value of rice in 1977 on the site was $ 1,705,536 and gross production on the site was 17,858,880 lbs. Site: Ma-3 Matagorda Count" Aerial reconnaissance in February 1979 indicated that approx:mately 60% of the 4800-acre Mc-3 site is used for rice production and the remainder used for cattle grazing. The average yield for rice in Matagorda County in 1977 was 5,252 lbs/ acre. Using the overcge state price for rice in 1977 of $9.55/ cwt, the cross value of rice produced on the Ma-3 site was $l,444,510 and production totaled 15,125,760 lbs.

d. Site: Li-3 Liberty County Agricultural production on the Li-3 site is a mixture of rice and soybeans. Aerial reconnaissance in February 1979 indicated that approximately 90% of the 640-acre site is in crop p oduction. The overage yie!d of rice in Liberty County in 1977 was 4,027 lbs/ acre. The average yield of soybeans in Liberty County in 1977 was 24.9 bushels / acre. Using state averages of $9.55/ cwt for rice and $5.35/ bushel for soybeans, and assuming equal amounts of rice and so/ bean production on 90% of the 640-acre Li-3 site, gross receipts for rice would be $110,758 on 1,159,776 lbs and for soybeans would be $38,366 on 7,i71 Lushels. Production rates and crop prices referenced in this discussion were taken from the 1977 Texas County Stati; tics and the 1978 Annual Summary of Texas Crop Production (1977 statistics) of the Texas Crop and Livestock Reporting Se vice. Applicable pages are reproduced and attached. It should be mentionea that reductions in crop production cre reported for cross values. Information on M reductions is not available.

ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATlVE SITE VISIT GUESTIONS Questia15 For site Li-3, why was a cooling pond not considered? If a cooling pond is feasible at this site, provide a map showing its approximate location and indicate the needed acreage for the pond. Answer 5 In the conceptual evaluation of the Li-3 site the topcgraphy of the site area was such that this site did not lend itself to the construction of a coating por.d.

t ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATIVE SITE VISIT QUESTIONS Question 6 Indicate the approximate lengths, corridor widths cnd cereages involved in construction of transmission lines. Where available, indicate the amounts of major land uses offected by construction of the transmission lines. If available, provide maps showing potential transmission corridor routes. Answer 6 A mcp showing potential transmission corridor routes for sites Bz-1, Je-3, Li-3 and Ma-3 was provided to the NRC on February 7,1979. The corridors shown on this map were developed for the purpose of determining differential cost estimates for numeroue alternative sites. The following table provides information concerning the total lengths, widths cnd ocreages of the transmission corridors for the four sites. The Nuclear Power Plant Siting Study provides the assumptions used. Transmission Corridor Data Je-3 Li-3 Ma-3 Bz-l Length 73 miles 63 miles 105 r.:iles 61 miles Corridor Width 80 feet 80 feet 80 feet 80 feet Area 708 ccres 611 acres 1019 acres 592 acres

I. ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATIVE SITE VISli QUESTIONS Question 7 Provide the ocreages and land use types affected oy construction of makeup and discharge pipelines. Answer 7 A map showing makeup and discharge pipeline corridor routes for sites Bz-1, Je-3, Li-3 and Mc-3 was provided to the NRC on February 7,1979. The following tables provide information on crea and land use for the proposed pipeline corridors. This data was computed from information in the Nuclear Power Plant Siting Study. The Bz-l site was assumed to have the same corridor width as the other sites. Pipeline Corridor Data Je-3 Li-3 Ma-3 Bz-l Area 157 acres 109 acres 38 acres 8 acres

ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATIVE SITE VISIT GUESTIONS Question 10 Provide a map showing the relationship of Site Li-3 to the Big Thicket National Preserve. Will any transmission lines, access roads, etc., for site Li-3 cross or affect the preserve? Answer 10 The Big Thicket National Preserve consists of severci discrete units. A map showing the relationship of Site Li-3 to units of the Big Thicket National Preserve was provided to the NRC. No transmission lines, access roads, or o' er project related features of Site Li-3 would cross or affect the preserve. The map was provided by the National Park Service Office in Beaumont, Texas, Mr. Carl Fleming, National Park Service, Big Thicket Preserve, P.O. Box 7408, Beaumont, Texas 77706. Phone (713) 838-0271.

ALLENS CREEK ALTERNATIVE SITE VISIT GUESTIONS Question 19 Identity any Federci and state listed rare, threatened or endcngered species and their existing and proposed critical habitats that are present on or in the close vicinity of the proposed si!e. Answer 19 The potential occurrence of rare, threatened or endangered species on or near the four alternative sites is discussed in the Nuclear Power Plant Siting Study, Sections 2.1 ond 3.1 of Appendix C, and the Bz-l site evaluation supplement. A review of Federal and Texas lists of endcngered animals revealed that only one recent change relevant to the four sites has been made to these lists. The Atlantic Ridley turtle is now shown on the Federal list as endangered. The potential occurrence of this species is discussed in Appendix C of the siting study. Currently only a single Texas plant species is recognized as endangered or threatened. This species, Texas wildrice, does not occur within or near any of the four sites. A survey of proposed endangered Texas plants conducted by the Texas Rare Plant Study Center, revected that no proposed endcngered plents occur within any county occupied by cny of the citernate sites.
