Subsection 4.2 of the EPP denotes three areas of environmental monitoring:
* Subsection               4.2.1         (Aquatic         Monitoring)             has       no     specific         monitoring                 requirements                 although it     is   noted       that   the     Commission                 will       rely     on   the   decisions           made       by   the     State     of New     York under               the             authority                   of     the           Clean               Water               Act           (CW A)             for           any               requirements.                                             Aquatic monitoring                             is             specified                       in           the           station's                       State             Pollutant                 Discharge                   Elimination                     System Permit             (SPDES                 Permit)               which                 is           a         site           permit             applicable                   to         Nine             Mile             Point         Nuclear Station               Unit               I         and           Unit           2.                       The         SPDES             Permit             requires               a         limited             Aquatic               Monitoring Program             (referred           to         in       the     permit           as       Biological           Monitoring               Requirements)                     which,       at     the present               time,                     is           only             applicable                 to             Unit                     1.                                 Unit           2               is                 in             compliance                         with               the           CW A.
* Subsection 4.2.1 (Aquatic Monitoring) has no specific monitoring requirements although it is noted that the Commission will rely on the decisions made by the State of New York under the authority of the Clean Water Act (CW A) for any requirements. Aquatic monitoring is specified in the station's State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (SPDES Permit) which is a site permit applicable to Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit I and Unit 2. The SPDES Permit requires a limited Aquatic Monitoring Program (referred to in the permit as Biological Monitoring Requirements) which, at the present time, is only applicable to Unit 1. Unit 2 is in compliance with the CW A.
Therefore,               no   Aquatic       Monitoring             Program             is     presently           required         for     Unit     2.
Therefore, no Aquatic Monitoring Program is presently required for Unit 2.
* Subsection         4.2.2       (Terrestrial           Monitoring)           does     not   contain       any       monitoring               requirements.
* Subsection 4.2.2 (Terrestrial Monitoring) does not contain any monitoring requirements.
* Subsection           4.2.3     (Noise       Monitoring)           does     not contai\\1 any       monitoring               requirements.
* Subsection 4.2.3 (Noise Monitoring) does not contai\\1 any monitoring requirements.

NMPNS UNIT 2 2023 ANNUAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT

Subsection 5.4.1 of the Environmental Protection Plan (EPP), as contained in Appendix B of the Renewed Operating License for the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit 2, requires that an Annual Environmental Operating Report be submitted to the Commission prior to May l of each year. The following addresses the requirements found in Subsection 5.4.1 of the EPP for the submittal of the Annual Environmental Operating Report:

1. Provide summaries and analyses of the results of the environmental protection activities required by Subsection 4.2 (if any) of the EPP for the report period, including a comparison with related preoperational studies, operational controls (as appropriate), and previous non-radiological environmental monitoring reports, and an assessment of the observed impacts of the plant operation on the environment. If harmful effects or evidence of trends towards irreversible damage to the environment are observed, a detailed analysis of the data and a proposed course of mitigating action shall be provided.

Subsection 4.2 of the EPP denotes three areas of environmental monitoring:

  • Subsection 4.2.1 (Aquatic Monitoring) has no specific monitoring requirements although it is noted that the Commission will rely on the decisions made by the State of New York under the authority of the Clean Water Act (CW A) for any requirements. Aquatic monitoring is specified in the station's State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (SPDES Permit) which is a site permit applicable to Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit I and Unit 2. The SPDES Permit requires a limited Aquatic Monitoring Program (referred to in the permit as Biological Monitoring Requirements) which, at the present time, is only applicable to Unit 1. Unit 2 is in compliance with the CW A.

Therefore, no Aquatic Monitoring Program is presently required for Unit 2.

  • Subsection 4.2.2 (Terrestrial Monitoring) does not contain any monitoring requirements.
  • Subsection 4.2.3 (Noise Monitoring) does not contai\\1 any monitoring requirements.
2. Provide a list of EPP non-compliances and corrective actions taken to remedy them.

A review of the EPP requirements and plant records showed that there were no non-compliances with the EPP requirements during 2023.

3. Provide a list of all changes in station design or operation, tests, and experiments made in accordance with EPP Subsection 3.1 which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental question (non-radiological).

A review of plant records, including environmental evaluations, showed that there were no changes in station design/operation, tests, or experiments during 2023 that could have involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental question (non-radiological).

./. List all non-routine reports submilled in accordance with Subsection 5../.2 of the EPP.

During 2023, there were no non-routine reports submitted to the Commission in accordance with Subsection 5.4.2 of the EPP.
