Re Limerick Generating Station NPDES Permit No. PA0051926

Dear Mr. Garg:

As per your recent telephone convercation with Bob Matty, of my staff, this letter._is being sent to correct information on the Perkiomen Storage Tank overflow discharge to Possum Hollow Run. In a letter dated October 6, 1992, we requested that the subject permit be amtended to allow a continuous overflow of Perkiomen Creek water to discharge to Possum Hollow Run-(outfall 020) as.a method of freeze protection for the Perkiomen Storage Tank. The discharge-rate from the tank to fossum Hollow Run was reported-as 200 gpm. It has been brought to our attention that the discharge rate is actually 450 gpm. Note, protective measures are in place to insure that no erosion of-the stream banko and bed takeo place, (W per your approval letter, 11/17/92). In your '

conversation with-Mr.-Matty, you indicated that the increased discharge rate should not be a problem. Please amend the subject permit to reflect this change in the discharge rate.

A copy of this letter (ir.cluding any attachments or enclosures) is-being sent to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC)-in accordance with the ,

Limerick Generating Station, Units 1 and 2, Environmental Protection Plan, section 3.2, which stipulates that USNRC shall receive a copy of any proposed changes to the NPDES permit at the same time that the permitting agency is >

notified.

If you have any questions or'requirn additional information, please contact Robert M. Matty, Jr. at_(215) 841-5177. t sincerely, f
