5-4 Water
Have you made an evaluation of the presence of contaminants in the cooling water relative to evaporation, the potential increased concentrations, and to the waste stream going to the Burrillville water treatment facility?
RESPONSE 5-4:
| Please see Table 6.2-2 of Invenergy’s Energy Facility Siting Board (“EFSB”) Application. The only process that will concentrate dissolved items in the makeup water will be the evaporative coolers. The circulating water in the evaporative coolers will be controlled within the equipment supplier's water quality limits to avoid adverse impacts to the equipment.
The project makeup well water will be treated with granulated carbon filters to reduce organic contaminants. The treated well water will be blended with demineralized water as makeup for the evaporative coolers.
