The re-evaluated flood elevation given in the FHRR for Riverine Flooding is a stilllwater elevation of 763.9 feet mean sea level (MSL) and a wind-wave activity affected elevation of 766.5 feet MSL (an additional 2.6 feet due to wind-wave activity). These values were based on a drainage basin area of 7,824 square miles. The drainage basin area has been revised to 6,250 square miles and this raised the stillwater elevation for Riverine Flooding (after refining the site-specific probable maximum precipitation event) to 765.2 feet MSL with a wind-wave activity af fected elevation of 767.8 feet MSL. This change increased the inundation levels but did not impact the wind-wave analysis.

The NextEra response contained information related to each re-evaluated flood-causing mechanism that is currently being reviewed by the NRC.
Due to ongoing audit discussions between the NRC st aff and NextEra, it is necessary to update the re-evaluated flood elevations associated with the Riverine (Streams and Rivers) flood-causing mechanism as well as provide flooding elevations discussed for the Local Intense Precipitation (LIP) flood-causing mechanism.
