Mitigation Measures 

Because BFN would continue 

operating within all applicable federal, 

state, and local regulations, and because 

no new construction or modifications to 

the facility is anticipated or planned 

during the proposed subsequent period 

of extended operations, no new 

mitigation measures would be required 

beyond those already implemented as a 

result of initial construction and 

operations. Should any construction or 

modification be anticipated or planned, 

TVA would follow all appropriate 

permitting requirements and 

environmental reviews would be 

pursued prior to deciding to pursue 

those projects. Best Management 

Practices would be implemented 

including those described in A Guide 

for Environmental Protection and Best 

Management Practices for Tennessee 

Valley Authority (TVA 2017b), 

stormwater pollution and Spill 

Prevention, Control, and 

Countermeasure (SPCC) plan, and other 

permit conditions 

• BFN also has an Integrated 

Pollution Prevention Plan that addresses 

storage, secondary containment, and 

inspections of fuel, hazardous materials, 

and chemicals like biocides. Attachment 

5 of the plan provides an inventory of 

all tanks, pumps, transformers, and 

other containers where these materials 

are used or stored, including the type of 

secondary containment for each. The 

secondary containment limits the 

potential for minor chemical spills to 

occur outside of containment areas. 

• The discharge of chemicals to 

surface water would be regulated by the 

conditions set forth in the NPDES 

permit. 

• Dredged material would be 

disposed of on land lying and being 

outside the 500-year floodplain in an 

onsite spoils area and above the 500- 

year flood elevation. 

• Water-use and water-dependent 

structures and facilities would be 

located within 100-year floodplains, and 

flood-damageable equipment and 

facilities would be located at a 

minimum outside 100-year floodplains, 

and Critical Actions would be located at 

a minimum outside 500-year 

floodplains. 

• All handling and disposal of nonradioactive and radioactive wastes 

would be in accordance with applicable 

rules, regulations and requirements of 

local, state, and federal laws.

Executive Vice President and Chief Nuclear 

Officer, Tennessee Valley Authority.
