Dear Ms:

NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS SALEM NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION PERMIT NO. NJ0005622 Attached are the Discharge Monitoring Report forms for Salem Nuclear Generating Station containing the information as re-

• quired in Permit No. NJ0005622 for the month of April, 1984 .

The information contained in this report presents the observed results required by the Environmental Protection Agency and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, obtained in accordance with approved methods with respect to sampling, analy-sis, monitoring and methods of reporting.

The reporting of the data and the accuracy of the results reflect the working environment, design capabilities and reliability of the instrumentation.

Discharge sampling locations 482 and 485 are set up and used for ongoing entrainment studies. This precludes any sampling activities.

Since all chemical treatments of or discharges to the circulating water system are common with at least one other discharge, those values are assumed to be identical. This assumption is made for all identified parameters .

Pursuant to Consent Order EPA-CWA-II-82-77 (May 27, 1983), entered by EPA and NJDEP, the following limits apply to the discharge from DSN 48C until July 1, 1985.

On April 25, 1984, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection was informed that approximately 25,000 gallons of liquid at pH 10.5 was discharged through a yard drain, (DSN489). The discharge occured on 4-25-84 from 0115 to 1200 hours0.0139 days <br />0.333 hours <br />0.00198 weeks <br />4.566e-4 months <br /> and was due to

• a temporary hose failure. The failed hose transfers the liquid in the chemical waste tank to the non-rad waste basin (DSN48C).

Mr. Joseph Douglas informed John Balletto of our Licensing and Regula-tion staff that this would not be a problem. He prepared an incident report and indicated that we would not be required to make a letter report. We have provided a description of the incident in the April Industrial Waste Treatment Plant Operating Report.

Exclusion explanations are included on an additional sheet.

Very truly yours, L. K. Miller Technical Manager -
