22-33 Water Supply Plan

Assuming a 3-day oil-fired event, as outlined in the report as a worst-case scenario, do you agree that approximately 2.2M gallons would be consumed? It is unclear in the water plan as to the capacity of the various storage tanks (service/fire water and demineralized water). What are all the proposed on site water storage capacities?

RESPONSE 22-33

If the Facility were required to operate on fuel oil for 3 consecutive days, the water consumption would be approximately 2,250,000 gallons. This capacity is accommodated between the service water and the demineralized water tank.

The storage capacities of these tanks is as follows:

Fire Water/Service Water – 1,050,000 gallons of which 650,000 gallons is dedicated to fire water.

Demineralized Water – 1,850,000 gallons.
