GEL 0070 O-Metropolitan Edison Co=pany Three Mile Island Nuclear Station Noncompliance Notification 80-01 & 80-02 I.
Description of Noncompliance A.
80-01 On February 13, 1980, a sa=ple was taken from the Industrial vaste Treatment System (IWTS) discharge (NPDES Discharge 107).
The sample had an oil and grease concentration of 221 =g/1.
Assu=ing the entire discharge (approxi-
=ately 6k,670 gallons) had a concentration of 221 =g/1, the total oil and grease discharge vould have been 119.3 pounds which exceeds the 48.1 pounds / day li=it.

80-02 On February 21, 1980 a sa=ple kas taken from the IWTS. The senple had an oil and greare concentration of h00 =g/1.
Assu=ing the entire discharge (apprcxi-
=ately 63,530 gallons ( had a concentration of h00 =g/1, the total oil and grease discharge vould have been 212.1 pounds which exceeds the h8.1 pounds /
day li=it.

Caus= aad c---artive/ preventive Acticas The IWTS is designed to recove oil and grease frc= th'e vaste water.
This re= oval is accc=plished through the air ficatation portion of the syste=.
Increased oil and grease loading on the IWTS is believed to have caused the nonco=pliances to The increased Icading resulted from the Unit i restart activities coupled occur.
vith condensor cleaning operations.
In order to =in*-*-* 'he effects of the increased loading, the quality of the effluent is being closely =enitored as it passes through the air floatation portion of the syste=.
This is being done to insure that satisfactory oil and grease re-
= oval is being acec=plished.
Based on the quality of the water as it exits the air floata icn portion of the syste=, the IWTS will be run in a recirculation
=cde, as necessary. This =ede of operation recirculates the effluen: back through the system in order to provide re-treatment.
It is believed that by recirculating the effluent, the IWTS vill be able.to effectively treat the ine'reased oil and grease loading we are currently experiencing.
