3 1.0 Objective This data and information is being provided to support the Project Water Impact Assessment being conducted by Others for permitting purposes. Based on the Project Block Diagram depicted on Drawing DN 0001 (Rev 0) and the water mass balance diagram WMB 1 (Rev 0), the major sources of project related environmental water emissions are expected to include the following. Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) Blowdown Gas Turbine (GT) Air Inlet Evaporative Cooling Blowdown Project Drains through the Oil/Water Separator Water Treatment Wastewater o Filter backwash o Reverse osmosis reject o Mixed bed regenerant waste Water Supply Water supply for the Project is from the existing Genesee site cooling pond. The water mass balance and effluent discharge characterization were created using the cooling pond water quality data. (Attachment 1) Water Effluent Water effluent for the Project will be discharged to the Genesee site existing settling pond. The water flows and constituents indicated within this report are limited to the impact to the Genesee site from Genesee Generating Station Units 4 and 5. BLACK & VEATCH Objective 1 1

4 2.0 Summary The effluent discharge characterization is shown on the spreadsheet in Appendix A. The Project water flow rates for the supply, use, evaporation, and effluent are depicted on the water mass balance diagram WMB 1 (Rev 0) in Appendix B. BLACK & VEATCH Summary 2 1

5 3.0 Methodology and Analysis The Project water flow rates for the supply, use, evaporation, and effluent are based upon the following: 1. HRSG Steam Cycle Makeup as 2% of Steam Turbine Flow with one third being lost as steam and two thirds being discharged as boiler blowdown. 2. GT Air Inlet Evaporative Cooling is based on Mitsubishi Power Systems data. Blowdown rate is based on 10 cycles of concentration in the evaporative cooler. 3. Project Drains through the Oil/Water Separator based on typical 2x1 Combined Cycle Power Plant B&V in house data. 4. Filter backwash is based on backwashing the filters once per day. 5. Reverse osmosis reject is based on 75 percent recovery, traditional with fresh water sources. 6. The mixed bed regenerant waste is based on regenerating the resin once per week. 7. The boiler quench water flow is based on cooling the boiler blowdown to 140 F. BLACK & VEATCH Methodology and Analysis 3 1
