Event Text OFFSITE NOTIFICATION DUE TO POTENTIAL RELEASE OF TRITIUM BEARING WATER AND SECONDARY CHEMICALS INTO THE PROTECTED AREA
"Inspection of an underground pipe used to discharge the contents of the Unit 3 Condensate Polishing Facility in accordance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Discharge Permit identified the potential for small amounts of water containing tritium and Secondary chemicals to be released to the ground within the plant Protected Area. The water met all permit limits for discharge to the normal discharge point. Groundwater tritium levels were well below reportable limits. The line has been removed from service. The Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection was notified at 1115 [EDT] on September 6, 2017.
