Contact)

SAIC,
on
behalf
of
EPA,
called
to
inquire
about
flow
volumes
reported
in
the
survey
and
the
type
of
power
generation
associated
with
intake.
Note
the
survey
data
presented
below
was
not
claimed
as
CBI.

Mr.
Currier
confirmed
that
the
large
volume
of
water
withdrawn
at
the
same
intake
as
that
for
the
mill
is
for
hydropower
generation
(
Flow
schematic
shows
max
hydro
power
flow
of
3
times
181.1
mgd
or
543.2
mgd).
Q3(
g)
shows
a
design
intake
flow
of
546.5
mgd.
The
survey
schematic
shows
a
max
mill
intake
volume
of
3.3
mgd
which
is
0.6%
of
the
total.
SAIC
asked
about
typical
volumes,
and
Mr.
Currier
said
the
hydro
power
volume
varies
and
is
limited
by
the
amount
of
flow
available
in
the
river
but
can
reach
design
capacity.
Regarding
the
mill
°
During
year
2000
and
earlier
the
average
daily
intake
flow
was
about
2.25
mgd
°
Recently
it
was
around
1.25
mgd
°
Most
cooling
water
is
once­
through
and
they
do
not
reuse
cooling
water.
For
comparison,
the
survey
schematic
shows
a
Max
flow
to
the
mill
of
3.3
mgd
with
0.55
mgd
going
to
cooling
and
2.73
mgd
going
to
process.
Thus,
17%
of
mill
intake
component
is
used
for
cooling.
Mr.
Currier
confirmed
that
only
a
small
portion
is
used
for
cooling.
This
is
somewhat
consistent
with
the
20%
reported
in
question
3(
h)
(%
design
flow
apportioned
to
cooling)
which
appears
to
apply
to
the
mill
component
only.
