Allegan Lansing, MI 48933 ENTERGY NUCLEAR PALISADES-LLC, PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT NPDES PERMIT NO. M10001457 PERMIT APPLICATION RENEWAL The NPDES Permit for the Palisades Nuclear Plant expires October 1, 2008. The enclosed State of Michigan NPDES Permit Application Forms (Rev. 01/2008) is hereby submitted to support reissuance of the modified NPDES Permit No. MI0001457 issued on November 08, 2004 (initial permit issuance date of September 23, 2004).Enclosed is a completed application that reflects waste water effluents and systems over the next five years.It includes a check in the amount of $750.00 as the application fee, a flow diagram representing operations for the next five years, and an update on water treatment additive approvals.

The Palisades Nuclear Plant was purchased from Consumers Energy Company by Entergy Services, Inc in April 2007. It is now owned and operated by Entergy Services, Inc. Ownership transfer was formally documented in a notification to the MDEQ Kalamazoo District Office dated March 11, 2007. No changes to the waste water operations or systems were made at the plant as a result of the transfer.

The person that signed the enclosed application is the site vice president of the Palisades Plant whom is employed by Entergy Services Inc. This person is responsible for the overall operations of the plant and, therefore, meets the signatory requirements in Rule 323.2214 and 40 CFR 122.22(a)

(1) (ii).The wastewater discharges from this facility have been well characterized through the duration of the current and previous NPDES permits. Outfall 001A (mixing basin discharge) consists principally of noncontact cooling water, cooling tower blow down from internal outfalls 001A- 001C, and combined miscellaneous low volume waste. Internal Outfalls 001D and 001F consists principally of radwaste water and turbine sump water. Monitoring at internal Outfalls 001A-001C was previously eliminated from NPDES permit regulation since flows are calculated prior to combining with mixing basin flows where they are monitored and measured at Outfall 001A.Waivers are requested for parameters where there is no source association or at undetectable loading levels to the effluent as a result of plant operations through previous NPDES permit application and monitoring characterization.

We request waivers from certain data reporting requirements in the application according to 40 CFR 122.53 (d)(7)(i)(B), subpart D for: Palisades NPDES Permit Application Cover Letter -0308

1) Outfall 001A, a waiver is requested from reporting data for parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c)TOC, (d) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), and (e) Total Suspended Solids.2) Outfall 001D, a waiver is requested from reporting for parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c)TOC, (d) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), (e) pH, (f) Temperature summer, and (g) Temperature winter.3) Outfall 001F, a waiver is requested from reporting data for parameters of (a) BOD 5, (b) COD, (c) TOC, (d) Ammonia Nitrogen (as N), (e) Total Suspended Solids, (f) pH, (g) Temperature summer, and (h) Temperature winter.WATER TEATMENT ADDITIVES Enclosed as Attachment 1 is a current list of water treatment additives currently approved for used at the Plant. The additives listed were approved by the Department through previous NPDES renewals or by separate approval.

The Company requests continued approval of the attached additives.

Additionally, the additive Nalco/Calgon EVAC was requested for use in 2001 to control zebra mussels in plant cooling water systems, however, it was never used at the plant. Instead, the plant will continue to use and apply Betz Clamtrol CT-2 (otherwise known as Spectrus CT 1300) and Betz Clamtrol CT-4 for zebra mussel control under the specified terms and conditions in which the approval is based. The Plant does not intend to pursue approval to use EVAC at this time.Also, in a letter dated January 12,,2007, we requested the approval to use NalcoThruguard 404 (THR404)to treat the circulating water system. It will assist in scale prevention of the plant cooling water system.Enclosed as Attachment 1, Exhibit 2 is a copy of the MDEQ approval letter. The enclosed list has been updated to include this additive.STORM WATER Compliance with all storm water monitoring requirements is maintained as specified in the current permit.Currently this facility has an implemented Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan which is retained and available at the site for review and/or inspection upon request.Enclosed as Attachment 2 is a completed "No Exposure to Storm Water" Certification form requesting the exclusion from coverage under the NPDES storm water discharges associated with industrial activities.

We believe facility conditions exist for a no exposure exemption based on MDEQ's no exposure guidance document qualifications and criteria.CURRENT PERMIT STATUS & SUGGESTED CHANGES The Plant is in compliance with the NPDES Permit M10001457.

In regards to compliance status of the special condition on Cooling Water Intake Structure(s)

Application Submittal Requirement For Phase HI Facilities, the MDEQ had earlier determined that the Palisades Plant, with cooling towers, has reduced intake flow commensuration with a closed-cycle recirculating system and achieved compliance with Palisades NPDES Permit Application Cover Letter -0308 Alternative 125.94(9)

(1) (i). A redrafted 316(b) rule is expected from EPA in late 2008 and it is expected that the Palisades Plant cooling water intake system will also be compliant with the new rules. Renewed permit language addressing this subject should be consistent with the new rules. We would appreciate the opportunity to review the plant's Pre-Public Notice draft NPDES permit prior to placing it on Public Notice.If you have any questions or need additional information please do not hesitate to contact me at 269-764-2464 or by e:mail at edehn@entergy.com.
