Subject: CP&L d/b/a Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc.
Asheville Steam Electric Plant
NPDES Permit No. NC0000396
Reissuance Application
Dear Mr. Goodrich:
The current NPDES permit for Asheville Steam Electric Plant located in Buncombe County
expires of December 31, 2005. Progress Energy hereby requests that the NPDES permit for the
facility be reissued. Enclosed are EPA Application Form 1 —General Information, EPA
Application Form 2C —Wastewater Discharge Information, and EPA Application Form 2F—
Stormwater Discharges Associated with Industrial Activity, all in triplicate.
With reissuance of the NPDES permit, Progress Energy requests the following:
• Eliminate the requirement to monitor copper for once-through cooling water(Outfall
002). Monitoring data from 2001 to the present has demonstrated that copper
concentrations are either below the detection limit of 0.010 mg/1 or quantified at 0.004
mg/1 or below. Copper monitoring was originally required due to suspected erosion of
the Unit 1 condenser tubes. These copper condenser tubes were replaced with stainless
steel tubes in 1994. Currently copper is monitored on a quarterly basis for Outfall 002
• The original permit was modified due to the addition of Flue Gas Desulfurization
wastewater. The limit for mercury at Outfall 001 becomes effective one year after
commencement of the FGD system to treat FGD wastewater. We request that the one
year be started after the second unit's FGD wastewater begins discharging to the
treatment facility. The FGD system for the first unit is projected to begin operation in
November of 2005 and the FGD system for the second unit is projected to begin
operation in June of 2006.
• Include a statement for Outfall 002 requiring the monitoring of total residual chlorine
only if chlorine is added to the system.

• Eliminate the analytical monitoring requirements for stormwater. The results of the
permit required monitoring and renewal monitoring demonstrate that stormwater runoff
from the access roads was not contaminated due to plant related traffic.
• Reduce the monitoring frequency for oil and grease and total residual solid at outfall 001.
Currently the permit required frequency for both is twice per month. Monthly monitoring
should be sufficient to demonstrate compliance with the effluent limitations.
• A. (11). of the current NPDES permit for the Asheville Steam Electric Plant requires that
Progress Energy request a continuation of its 316(a) variance beyond the term of the
present permit. Enclosed is an EPA Guidance Letter dated August 11, 1988 outlining the
general procedure to be followed in requesting the continuance of a 316(a) variance. The
following is Progress Energy's response to the pertinent factors contained in the EPA
General Procedure for the reissuance of the 316(a) variance:
1. The permittee must request that the variance be continued
Response: Progress Energy hereby requests continuation of the 316(a) •
variance reflected in it's present NPDES permit for the Asheville
Steam Electric Plant.
2. Plant operating conditions and load factors are unchanged and are expected to
remain so for the term of the reissued permit
Response: The plant operating conditions and load factors are unchanged and
are expected to remain so for the term of the reissued permit.
3. There are no changes to the permittee's knowledge to plant discharges or other
discharges in the plant site area which could interact with thermal discharges.
Response: To Progress Energy's knowledge there have been no changes to
the Asheville Plant's discharges or other discharges to Lake Julian
which could interact with the thermal discharges.
4. There are no changes to the permittee's knowledge to the biotic community of the
receiving water body which could impact the previous 316 (a) determinations.
Response: As demonstrated by Progress Energy's Environmental Monitoring
Reports, which are routinely submitted to the Director of the
Division of Water Quality, since issuance of the current NPDES
permit there have been no changes to the biotic community of
Lake Julian which would impact the previous 316 (a)
determinations.
• Asheville Plant's demonstration of compliance with 316(b) is presented in Attachment 8.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3 OF FORM 2-C NC0000396 001 -
PART C- If you are a primary industry and this outfall contains process wastewater,refer to Table 2c-2 in the instructions to determine which of the GC/MS fractions you must test fa. Mark"X"in column
2-a for all such GC/MS fractions that apply to your industry and for ALL toxic metals, cyanides, and total phenols. If you are not required to mark column 2-a(secondary industries, nonprocess
wastewater outfalls, and nonrequired GC/MS fractions), mark"X" in column 2-b for each pollutant you know or have reason to believe is present. Mark"X"in column 2-c for each pollutant you
believe is absent. If you mark column 2a for any pollutant,you must provide the results of at least one analysis for that pollutant.If you mark column 2b for any pollutant,you must provide the results
of at least one analysis for that pollutant if you know or have reason to believe it will be discharged in concentrations of 10 ppb or greater. If you mark column 2b for acrdein,acrylonitrile, 2,4
dinitrophend, or 2-methyl-4, 6 dinitrophend, you must provide the results of at least one analysis for each of these pollutants which you know or have reason to believe that you discharge in
concentrations of 100 ppb or greater.Otherwise,for pollutants for which you mark column 2b,you must either submit at least one analysis or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to
be discharged. Note that there are 7 pages to this pat; please review each carefully. Complete one table (al 7 pages) for each outfall. See instructions for additional details and requirements.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3 OF FORM 2-C NC0000396 002 ,
PART C- If you are a primary industry and this outfall contains process wastewater,refer to Table 2c-2 in the instructions to determine which of the GC/MS fractions you must test for. Mark"X'in column
2-a for all such GC/MS fractions that apply to your industry and for ALL toxic metals, cyanides, and total phenols. If you are not required to mark column 2-a (secondary industries, nonprocess
wastewater outfalls, and nonrequired GC/MS fractions), mark"X" in column 2-b for each pollutant you know or have reason to believe is present Mark"X" in column 2-c for each pollutant you
believe is absent. If you mark column 2a for any pollutant,you must provide the results of at least one analysis for that pollutant If you mark column 2b for any pollutant,you must provide the results
of at least one analysis for that pollutant if you know or have reason to believe it will be discharged in concentrations of 10 ppb or greater. If you mark column 2b for ac rdein, acrylonitrile, 2,4
dinitrophenol, or 2-methyl-4, 6 dinitrophenol, you must provide the results of at least one analysis for each of these pollutants which you know or have reason to believe that you discharge in
concentrations of 100 ppb or greater.Otherwise,for pollutants for which you mark column 2b,you must either submit at least one analysis or briefly describe the reasons the pollutant is expected to
be discharged. Note that there are 7 pages to this part; please review each carefully. Complete one table (at 7 pages) for each outfall. See instructions for additional details and requirements.

Form 2C - Item Il-B Flow, Sources of Pollution, and Treatment Technologies
The Asheville Steam Electric Plant is located in Arden, North Carolina south of Asheville, North
Carolina. The Asheville Steam Electric Plant is a coal-fired, steam cycle electric generating
plant with two generating units. Two Internal Combustion (IC) Turbines are also located on the
plant site. The plant has a 320-acre cooling lake (Lake Julian) on the east side of the French
Broad River in Buncombe County, North Carolina.
Chemical constituents contained in the discharges from this plant will, in part be representative
of the naturally occurring chemical quality of the intake water and will also have chemical
constituents of such quality and quantity associated with similar discharges for fossil generating
facilities of this size, type and in this geographical location. Either all or part of the elements
listed on the Periodic Table, either singularly or in any combination, may from time to time be
contained in the discharge.
Outfall 001 - Discharge from Ash Pond to French Broad River
The Plant's ash pond, which is located east of the French Broad River and south of the plant,
discharges into the French Broad River. The ash pond receives ash sluice water, low volume
wastes, coal pile runoff, limestone pile runoff, gypsum pile runoff, air preheater cleaning water,
fire protection system drainage, chemical metal cleaning wastes (potentially), storm water and
other waters from the Combustion Turbine Facility constructed on the Plant's site. The
proposed truck wash and weigh stations will also discharge to the Ash Pond. The pond
provides treatment by sedimentation and neutralization to the above-referenced individual
waste streams. Water leaves the ash pond via a standpipe with skimmer and flows by pipe and
lined ditch to a secondary basin, where it is discharged by overflow to a ditch that coveys it to
the French Broad River. Detailed descriptions of the individual waste streams are below.
Ash Sluice Water
Fly ash and bottom ash from both units are hydraulically conveyed by an ash sluice pipeline to
the ash pond. The Amine Enhanced Fuel Lean Gas Reburn (AEFLGR) process which was
installed on Unit 1 in the spring of 2000 will be replaced by a Selective Catalytic Reduction
1
Carolina Power & Light Company
Asheville Steam Electric Plant
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit Number NC0000396
system (SCR) that will begin operation in 2008. A SCR will be installed on Unit 2 and will begin
operation in 2006. Urea will continue to be utilized to reduce NOx emissions and will be used in
high ozone months (approximately May through September). Beginning in 2009 both SCRs will
be operated year round. A byproduct of this process is ammonia which will be carried to the
ash pond via ash sluice water. The ash pond discharge flows into the secondary settling pond
where it combines with the FGD treated wastewater prior to discharging to the French Broad
River.
Coal Pile Runoff
Storm water runoff from the coal pile is collected in drainage ditches that surround the coal pile.
The drainage ditches are routed to the ash pond for treatment. During maintenance activities,
sludges removed from catch basins, sumps, etc. may be transported to the old and/or the new
ash pond fpr disposal.
Limestone and Gypsum Piles Runoff
Storm water runoff from the limestone and gypsum piles is collected in drainage ditches which
are routed to the ash pond for treatment. During maintenance activities, sludges removed from
catch basins, sumps, etc. may be transported to the old and/or the new ash pond for disposal.
Storm Water
Storm water runoff from the plant area, parking lots, combustion turbine area, oil storage and
handling facility and the plant's 115 KV substation is routed to the ash pond for treatment.
During maintenance activities, sludges removed from catch basins, sumps, etc. may be
transported to the old and/or the new ash pond for disposal.
Low Volume Wastes
Boiler water make up is withdrawn from Lake Julian and purified utilizing vendor supplied
equipment. Boiler water is treated with ammonia, hydrazine, and sodium hydroxide. Boiler
blowdown and drainage is sent to the ash pond and may contain small quantities of the
chemicals. Some molybdate waste from the closed cooling water system is created through
valve leakage and maintenance activities and is discharged to the ash pond. A furnace ash
hopper seal is maintained by using plant service water. A standard operation water level is
maintained in a seal trough for the ash hopper seal. Overflow from this trough is discharged to
the ash pond. A sodium hydroxide solution is fed into this flow stream as necessary for ash
2

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit Number NC0000396
pond pH adjustment. Sulfuric acid is fed to the ash sluice water as necessary for ash pond pH
adjustment. Coal dust suppression is achieved by spraying a proprietary chemical on coal at
different stages of coal use. Small amounts of excess dust suppression chemical have the
potential to be discharged to the ash pond via plant drains or coal pile runoff. Small amounts of
urea waste from bulk urea unloading operations are discharged to the ash pond. All plant area
floor drains are routed to the ash pond and include equipment drainage and wash down along
with rainfall runoff. During maintenance activities sludges removed from catch basins, sumps,
etc. may be transported to the old and/or the new ash pond for disposal.
In many cases, added chemicals are consumed or chemically altered during the plant
processes. Only trace amounts might be recoverable in water entering the ash pond.
Detectable levels of these chemicals would not be expected to occur in ash pond discharges.
Flue Gas Desulfurization Blowdown (Low Volume Waste)
The Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) system directs flue gas into an absorber where a limestone
(calcium carbonate) slurry is sprayed. Sulfur dioxide in the flue gas reacts with the limestone to
produce calcium sulfate (gypsum). This system reclaims any unreacted limestone slurry to be
reused in the absorber. A small blowdown stream is used to maintain the chloride
concentration in the reaction tank. The blowdown stream is passed through a clarifier to
remove solids and the chloride concentration in the waste stream is diluted using water from
Lake Julian. A constructed wetland is used to remove metals, mercury and selenium
specifically, and the treated wastewater is discharged into the secondary settling pond.
Air Preheater Cleaning (Low Volume Waste)
The air preheater will be water washed once per year or more frequently as needed. The
wastewater from this activity will be discharged to the ash pond.
Chemical Metal Cleaning Wastes
The boilers are chemically cleaned every five-to-eight years using Tetraammonia ethylene
diamine tetraaccetic acid (EDTA) solution. This cleaning solution and its rinses are stored on
site for disposal by evaporation in an operating unit's furnace. Typical cleanings would result in
a waste of approximately 80,000 gallons. Should evaporation not be used, the wastewater can
be treated by neutralization and precipitation prior to being conveyed to the old ash pond with
permission of the DWQ, or to the new ash pond, or other means of disposal. Cleaning of other
3
Carolina Power & Light Company

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit Number NC0000396
heat exchanger surfaces may produce 5,000-10,000 gallons of wastewater every three-to-five
years.
Other Wastes
Operation of the combustion turbine (CT) generation facility may produce turbine blade wash
water, inlet filter cooling water, various condensate waters, and water from equipment and tank
drains. These wastewaters will be collected in the storm water collection system of the CT site
and routed to the ash pond. During maintenance activities, sludges removed from catch
basins, sumps, etc. may be transported to the old and/or the new ash pond for disposal.
- Plant Potable and Sanitary System -
The supply of water for plant potable and sanitary use is obtained from the Asheville/Buncombe
Water Authority system and waste from this system is discharged to the Metropolitan Sewage
District System.
-230 KV Substation Storm Water-
Storm water runoff from the substation located adjacent to the plant is conveyed to the old ash
pond.
Outfall 002 - Discharge to Lake Julian
Once-Through Cooling Water
This flow provides condenser cooling water for the generating units 1 and 2. Maximum
condenser flows for units 1 and 2 are 150 MGD and 156 MGD, respectively.
Once-through cooling water is used to supply non-contact cooling water for the component
closed cooling water system. The component closed cooling water system flows combine with
unit 1 and 2 condenser flows prior to discharge to Lake Julian. Maximum component closed
cooling water system flows for unit 1 and 2 are 9.1 MGD and 10.2 MGD, respectively.
Discharge flow to Lake Julian is calculated at the intake to units 1 and 2 condensers and to the
circulating water to the heat exchanger. The discharge of water from the heat exchangers is
routed to an ash sump. The majority of this water is further routed to the discharge of units 1
and 2 condensers. Less than one percent of the flow to the ash sump is used to supply ash
sluice water, preheater cleaning water, and fire protection water.

Control of biological fouling on heat-exchanger surfaces is accomplished by addition of sodium
hypochlorite as required, which is usually less that 2 hours per day per unit, with a net total
residual chlorine of less than 0.2 ppm discharged during that period. Cooling is accomplished
by evaporation from the surface of Lake Julian and mixing and convection with lake waters.
Make up for Lake Julian is from the French Broad River, natural runoff and creek flows. Water
is pumped from the French Broad River during dry periods to supplement the flow. Although
discharge from Lake Julian to the river is extremely rare, any occurrence would be during
periods of heavy rainfall.

Form 2F - Item IV B. Narrative Description of Pollutant Sources
The enclosed site (Page maps drainage 1 — new access road, Page P ( 9 2 —old access
road) display the sections of the site access roads from which storm water will
discharge to Lake Julian or an unnamed tributary of Powell Creek which discharges into
the French Broad River. Storm water from other sections of the roads flows via sheet
flow or is conveyed to the ash pond or to the hot pond prior to discharging to,
respectfully, the French Broad River and Lake Julian. The discharges from the hot
pond and ash pond to Lake Julian and the French Broad River, respectively, are
NPDES permitted discharge outfalls.
New Access Road
The portion of the road from which storm water will discharge directly to Lake Julian is
divided into 3 separate drainage areas, each with an outfall. Storm water that is routed
to SW-1 is carried to Lake Julian using piping, grass-lined ditches, concrete-lined
ditches and sheet flow. The area drained contains Carolina Power& Light Company
d/b/a Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. (PEC) property, non-PEC property, the access
road and a railroad storage yard where coal-filled rail cars can be stored. Storm water
that is routed to SW-2 will be collected in a riprap-lined ditch that will then allow sheet
flow to Lake Julian. The area drained contains only the access road. Storm water that
is routed to outfall SW-3 will be routed through piping and both grass and riprap-lined
ditches. The area drained to SW-3 includes PEC property, non-PEC property, the
access road, and the railroad storage yard. PEC can only provide a rough estimate of
impervious area for the property not owned by PEC.
The property used for the new access road was purchased by PEC. The past use of
this property was residential; therefore, PEC has no knowledge of any significant
materials that have been treated, stored or disposed on this property in the past. PEC
staff performed a limited Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment on this property and
found no visual evidence of the storage, use, or disposal of chemicals or hazardous
substances. Any chemicals used are likely limited to consumer products in limited
quantities. PEC has stored in the past and will store in the future coal at the railroad
storage yard. The coal is contained in rail cars that are waiting to be unloaded at the
plant. Other than the coal stored at the railroad storage yard, PEC has not treated,
stored or disposed of any significant materials on any property already owned by PEC
in the drainage area of this access road and has no plans to treat, store, or dispose of
significant materials on this access road or on immediately surrounding property owned
by PEC in the future. No materials loading or unloading activities will take place on the
access road, railroad storage yard, or on immediately surrounding property owned by
PEC. Various brands of commercial herbicides (i.e., Roundup, Crossbow) might be
used to control weeds and other unwanted plant growth for security reasons. These
herbicides will be carefully applied by licensed applicators, or persons under the
immediate supervision of a licensed applicator, in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. Fertilizers, pesticides (other than herbicides), and soil conditioners will not

be used by PEC. No hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal will occur on this
property.
Old Access Road
The portion of the road from which storm water will discharge directly to Lake Julian is
divided into 3 separate drainage areas each with an outfall. Storm water that is routed
to SW-4 flows over grass-lined ditches and gravel to Lake Julian. The area drained
contains PEC property, non-PEC property, and the old access road. Storm water that
is routed to SW-5 is collected in a grass-lined ditch that discharges into a concrete
conveyance that discharges into the Lake Julian spillway. The spillway discharges to
an unnamed tributary of Powell Creek which discharges to the French Broad River.
The area drained contains only PEC property, including the access road. Storm water
that is routed to outfall SW-6 is conveyed through grass-lined ditches and piping to
Lake Julian. The area drained contains PEC property including the access road and a
picnic area with several buildings and a shelter.
PEC has not treated, stored or disposed of any significant materials on property owned
by PEC in the drainage area of this access road and has no plans to treat, store, or
dispose of significant materials on property in the drainage area owned by PEC. No
materials loading or unloading activities will take place on the access property owned by
PEC. Various brands of commercial herbicides (i.e., Roundup, Crossbow) might be
used to control weeds and other unwanted plant growth for security reasons. These
herbicides will be carefully applied by licensed applicators, or persons under the
immediate supervision of a licensed applicator, in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. Fertilizers, pesticides (other than herbicides), and/or soil conditioners will
not be used by PEC in this drainage area. No hazardous waste treatment, storage, or
disposal will occur on PEC property in this drainage area.

No conventional treatment will be provided for the storm water discharging from any of
the outfalls. Prior to discharging to Lake Julian, storm water from Outfalls SW-1, SW-2,
SW-4, SW-5, and SW-6 will flow over a vegetative buffer which will provide some
filtering of sediment from the storm water.
All coal, limestone, and gypsum trucks that travel on the access road are required to be
covered which will prevent spillage on this road. These same trucks are required to
wash down their wheels prior to exiting the site. The wash water from these wheel
washes is discharged in the ash pond for treatment.
During maintenance activities, sludges removed from ditches or manholes may be
transported to the old and/or new ash pond for disposal.

§316(b)Supplement to NPDES Permit NC0000396 Reissuance Application
- Clean Water Act Section 316(b)-
The Asheville Steam Electric Plant is subject to the §316(b)Phase II regulations. Since
the plant's cooling water intake is located on a freshwater lake(Lake Julian) it is subject
only to the impingement mortality reduction performance standard. This standard is a
80—95 %reduction in impingement mortality from the calculation baseline.
The Asheville plant chooses to demonstrate that the design intake velocity is 0.5 feet per
second or less in accordance with the compliance option presented in §125.94(a)(1)(ii).
This demonstration allows the plant to be deemed compliant with the impingement
mortality performance standard. Additionally, according to the regulation the plant is not
required to submit or be subject to the following:
1 Comprehensive Demonstration Study(CDS)including the Proposal for
Information Collection [PIC] (§125.95)
2 Monitoring associated with any CDS component(§125.96)
3 Record Keeping and Status Report (§125.97)
4 Permitting activities associated with §125.98.
As part of this NPDES permit reissuance application, the Asheville Plant is submitting
the information as required by §122.21(r)(1)(ii).
Asheville 316(b)Page 1
-Demonstration of Compliance in Accordance with §125.94(a)(1)(ii)-
§125.94(a)(1)(ii)authorizes a facility that demonstrates their design intake
velocity is 0.5 feet per second(fps) or less to be in compliance with the impingement
mortality performance standard.
The cooling water intake structure located on the lake consists of an excavated
cove and an intake pump structure located at the end of the cove. At the mouth of the
cove is a skimmer wall which is described and depicted elsewhere in this material. The
opening at the bottom of the skimmer wall allows cooler water to enter the cove and
subsequently the pumps. An aerial photograph of this layout has been provided in
Figure 3. Also attached is the engineering drawing for the skimmer wall (ELEV A-A is
the cross-sectional of the skimmer wall).
Since the cove is a constructed waterway it is considered part of the intake
structure'. The actual inlet or opening to the cooling water intake structure is through the
bottom of the skimmer wall. Additionally, since the facility has minimal operational
problems with debris or fish clogging the condenser tubes, there are no 3/8 inch screens
at either the skimmer wall opening or the intake pumps. The pumps do have bar racks
and a very coarse mesh, fixed screen (chicken wire). The intake water velocity passing
through the bottom of the skimmer wall is calculated to be 0.42 fps based on the ratio of
design flow in cubic feet per second (cfs)to the square footage of the open area. (See
Figure 4). Consequently the plant has demonstrated compliance with 40 CFR
125.94(a)(1)(ii) [design intake velocity of<0.5 fps.]. Further rationale for compliance is
as follows:
• "Design intake velocity" is defined at 125.93 to mean the speed at which the intake
water passes through the open area of the intake screen or other device. The skimmer
wall is an "other device" so the water passing through the open area of another device
is<0.5 fps.
• Since there are no screens at the opening to the intake structure there is nothing to
impinge fish.
• Intake velocities are low and approach velocities should be lower so fish can maintain
sustainable swimming speeds and escape being caught up in any currents that would
force them into the cooling water structure. However, even if fish enter into the
intake structure (in this case the cove)there still is no regulatory issue since
entrainment(usually applicable to non-motile,planktonic eggs and larva which are
minimally found in a fresh water lake)is not a performance standard for intake
structures located on fresh water lakes.
40 CFR§125.93 defines a cooling water intake structure as the total physical structure and any associated
constructed waterways.
Asheville 316(b)Page 2
-River Intake -
The plant operates a make-up pump on the French Broad River that serves to keep
the lake at optimum levels for operation of the plant. We believe the river intake pump is
not subject to the Phase H rules nor is it a factor for facility compliance. The background
for this position is as follows:
• The design of this make-up pump is currently 7.2 MGD and will be increased to 9.36
MGD to provide additional make-up to the lake due to projected Flue Gas
Desulfurization(air scrubber)process water needs. It is debatable whether this intake
should be considered for 316(b)purposes. This make-up pump is operated based on
lake levels not necessarily cooling water needs. The regulation states that at least
25%of water withdrawn must be used exclusively for cooling purposes,measured on
an average annual basis. For the past 12 years the average annual flow of the makeup
pump has been 2.24 MGD or about 31%of the design. We cannot say definitively
that this 2.24 MGD is used exclusively for cooling. For example on the average there
is about 2.08 MGD of lake water withdrawn that is used for non-cooling purposes
(ash sluice, fire pump testing, and consumed service water). Also there is an
undetermined amount of lake water lost through dam seepage that needs to be made
up. If we subtract the 2.07 MGD non-cooling water uses from the flow of 2.24 MGD
we find that only about 8%2 of the annual average 2.24 MGD flow from the river
intake can be said to be used exclusively for cooling. However, this 8%is below the
25%threshold so the Phase II regulations would not apply.
• Furthermore when this makeup pump is expanded to 9.36 MGD the expansion will
coincide with the need for process water for the air scrubbers, not cooling water. The
air scrubbers will require an average of approximately 1.00 MGD of process(non-
cooling) water. Therefore if we add the 1.00 MGD to the existing 2.07 MGD average
consumptive(non-cooling)use we obtain a percentage of possible cooling water use
of only approximately 5%3, still below the 25%threshold.
• Looking at the aggregate of the cooling system for the plant, the river intake will
constitute only about 3% of the total design intake flow of the cooling system. Since
the river intake design is only about 3%of the total design flow for the cooling
system (assuming the river water is used exclusively as cooling water)the plant takes
the position that if 97%of the cooling system intake structure is in compliance with
the phase II regulations due to compliance with §125.94(a)(1)(ii), the entire system is
in compliance with the 80- 95%impingement reduction standard.

Asheville 316(b)Page 3
• In addition the river intake design is considerably less than 5%4 of the mean annual
flow of the French Broad River so entrainment is not an issue.

NPDES Permit Application Requirements for§316(b) Compliance
122.21(r)(2)—Source Water Physical Data
(i)A narrative description and scaled drawings showing the physical configuration of all
source water bodies used by the facility, including areal dimensions, depths, salinity and
temperature regimes, and other documentation that supports the determination of the
water body type where each cooling water intake structure is located.
The plant's cooling water source waterbody is Lake Julian, located in Buncombe
County,North Carolina. Lake Julian is a deep, freshwater mountain lake with relatively
clear waters, low nutrient concentrations, and low biological productivity. The lake was
created as a cooling lake by impounding Powell's Creek, a tributary of the French Broad
River(see Figures 1 and 2). The lake reached full-pool elevation in June 1963. What is
referred to as the discharge arm of the lake has a surface area of approximately 106.2
acres and a mean depth of approximately 13 feet; the main body of the lake has a surface
area of approximately 215 acres, a maximum depth of approximately 108 feet, and a
mean depth of approximately 29.5 feet. These two arms of the lake are physically
divided by two earthen railroad dikes. This is a fresh water lake and the salinity seldom
increases above 10 mg/L. In regard to temperature regimes, cooler(hypolimnectic)water
is withdrawn under the skimmer wall in the main body of the lake. During 0 2004, the
temperature of the surface waters in the main body ranged from 17.6 °C to 34.5 C with a
mean of 26.3 *C. The mean water temperature recorded during 2004 in the main body
was within the range of mean values reported since 1992. A thermocline develops during
the spring and summer at about 62-65 feet in depth. The water temperature in the
discharge arm of the lake ranged from about 11.1 °C to 36.8 °C with a mean of 26.1°C.
In addition to the lake as the predominant cooling water source waterbody,the
plant operates a make-up pump on the French Broad River that serves to keep the lake at
optimum levels for operation of the plant. At the location of the make-up pump the river
is approximately 200 feet wide with depths varying depending on rainfall. On September
17, 2003 Progress Energy conducted a comprehensive bathymetry of the section of the
river at the plant. The average depth was 3.17 feet with ranges from 0.5 feet to 8.4 feet.
Temperature regimes are expected to reflect ambient influences.
Asheville 316(b)Page 5
(ii)Identification and characterization of the source waterbody's hydrological and
geomorphological features, as well as the methods you used to conduct any physical
studies to determine your intake's area of influence within the waterbody and the results
of such studies
- Lake Julian—
Hydrological Features - The lake's 4.7 square mile watershed is primarily
residential and urban. Based on the annual average flow(cfs/square mile) from the
USGS gauging stations in Buncombe County that have adequate historic records the
annual average drainage is approximately two cfs/square mile. Water loss from the lake
water budget is attributed to evaporation, spill over the dam, seepage and consumptive
use by the plant.
Geomorphological Features—The relief contour of the lake bottom is depicted in
the attached topographical map (Figure 2).
Area of Influence- Since no PIC or new biological studies are required to be
developed,no area of influence has been determined
-River Makeup Intake-
Hydrological Features—The drainage area of the French Broad River at the intake
site is approximately 654 square miles. Use of the annual average flows from the USGS
gauging station downstream at Asheville produces a mean annual flow of approximately
1800 cfs at the plant site.
Geomorphological Features— The river is approximately 200 feet wide with
depth varying according to substrate and rainfall. Substrate consists of rocks and
boulders.
Area of Influence- Since no PIC or new biological studies are required to be
developed, no area of influence has been determined.
(iii)Locational maps.
See Figures 1 and 2
§122.21(r)(3)—Cooling water intake structure data.
(i) A narrative description of the configuration of each of your cooling water intake
structures and where it is located in the water body and in the water column;
- Lake Intake-
Asheville 316(b)Page 6
The plant's intake structure on the lake consists of an intake cove that has a
submerged skimmer wall at its entrance and a cooling water pump structure at the other
end. The skimmer wall is approximately 27.5 feet deep to the top of the submerged
opening. The submerged opening has a dimension of approximately ten feet between the
bottom of the entrance to the intake cove and the bottom of the skimmer wall. The
submerged opening provides a total open area of approximately 1175 square feet. (See
Attached Drawing of Skimmer Wall and Figure 3 which is a photograph of the entire
structure).
-River Intake—
This small structure is located on the shore of the French Broad River
approximately 240 feet upstream from the confluence of Powell's Creek and the river. It
consists of a single pump housed in a structure that withdraws water from the water
column of the river and pumps to a settling area in the lake. (See Attached Drawing of
River Intake structure)
(ii) Latitude and longitude in degrees, minutes, and seconds for each of your cooling
water intake structures
The entrance to the intake cove from the lake is located at Latitude 35°28' 23"N
and Longitude 82° 32' 38"W.
The river pump structure is located at Latitude 35°28' 24"N and Longitude 82°
33'14"W.
(iii) A narrative description of the operation of each of your cooling water intake
structures, including design intake flows, daily hours of operation, number of
days of the year in operation and seasonal changes, if applicable;
- Lake Intake—
The lake intake pump structure contains four intake bays, two for each unit. Each
Unit 1 intake bay contains a cooling water pump having a design capacity of 48,300
gallons per minute(gpm). Each Unit 2 intake bay contains a cooling water pump having
a design capacity of 61,500 gpm. The total design capacity of the intake pumps is 316.2
million gallons per day(MGD). The attached graph(Figure 5)depicts the monthly
average cooling water intake flow variations over the last five years. As can be seen the
flows peak and remain close to maximum generally from May through September. The
average annual flow is approximately 247 MGD. This represents a reduction credit from
the design flow of about 22%. The operation of the cooling water pumps reflect the
generation need and intake water temperature. Generally at least one pump per unit is in
operation all the time with all pumps being operational during peak generation periods in
the summer months.
Asheville 316(b)Page 7
-River Intake -
In order to ensure adequate lake levels for optimum operation it is necessary to
pump makeup water from the French Broad River into the lake during periods of low
rainfall and high evaporative losses. Other means of water loss includes seepage through
the dam and consumptive use by the plant. The makeup pumps usually operate from
May or June to October or November. The current design of the intake pump is 5000
gpm or 7.2 MGD. This pump represents only about 2%3 of the total cooling system
design. As previously mentioned the design of this pump will be increased to 6500 gpm
(9.36 MGD)or about 3%6 of the design flow of the cooling water intake structure
pumps.

to the facility, recirculating flows, and discharges;
See flow schematic attached to NPDES 2C application.
(v) Engineering drawings of the cooling water intake structure.

(i)A narrative description of the operation of the cooling water system, its relationship to
cooling water intake structures, the proportion of the design intake flow that is used in
the system, the number of days of the year the cooling water system is in operation and
seasonal changes in the operation of the system, if applicable;
Lake Julian is the source of once-through condenser cooling water for the
Asheville Steam Electric Plant. Water is pumped from the main arm of the lake through
the plant condensers(heat exchangers)where it condenses the pressurized steam that is
spent after contacting the turbine blades that turn the generators. Once the steam is
condensed it is returned to the boilers to be heated to steam again. The cooling water
makes one pass through the condensers before being discharged back into the lake
(termed once-through). The discharged cooling water is non-mechanically aerated prior
to entering a small cooling basin. The small basin discharges into what is termed the
discharge arm of the lake. The water then passes through a culvert system and enters the
main body of the lake. The cooling cycle is completed when water from the lake passes
beneath the skimmer wall and into the intake cove where water is then withdrawn by the
condenser cooling water pumps. The lake cooling water intake pumps have a design
flow of 316.2 MGD. Of this figure approximately 99%of the flow is used in the
[cooling] system when all pumps are in operation. The cooling water pump operation is
directly related to the operation of the cooling system needs. Usually in the winter
months when the intake water is cooler the need to operate both pumps per unit is
reduced. (See previously mentioned graph in Figure 5)

Proportion of Cooling Water Used in the System
Generally approximately 2.08 MGD9 of the cooling water that is withdrawn is used for
non-cooling purposes. Proportioned to the intake design flow of 316.2 MGD, 99%10 of
the once-through cooling water is used for cooling purposes.
Number of Days/Year of Operation
Generally at least one cooling water intake pump runs everyday. On an infrequent
occasion all pumps may be offline for a couple of days due to maintenance of the pumps
or other plant systems.
Seasonal Changes
During the colder months of winter when the intake water is cooler, the need to run all
pumps is diminished. Seasonal fluctuations of the cooling system operation is depicted in
the attached graph(Figure 5). This information is based on monthly Discharge
Monitoring Reports.
