Long Mott Generating Station Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 2.4 Hydrology 2.4.2-1 November 2025 Chapter 2 Site Characteristics 2.4 HYDROLOGY 2.4.2 FLOODS 2.4.2.1 Flood History The major credible natural events that may cause flooding near the Long Mott Generating Station (LMGS) site are flooding from the Guadalupe and San Antonio Rivers along with Coleto Creek, hurricane-induced storm surges from the Gulf of Mexico, and the effects of local intense precipitation (LIP) on the site. There are no historical records of flooding in the nearby region from ice-related events, tsunami-generated surges, channel diversions, or dam break incidences.

As mentioned in Section 2.4.1, stream gage records are available for the Guadalupe and San Antonio Rivers and Coleto Creek near the site and are representative of flood flows in the vicinity of the LMGS site.

Monthly discharge data is available from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) for a period or record from water years 1935 to 2022 for Victoria on the Guadalupe River (USGS gage number 08176500) (USGS, 2024a), from water years 1981 1939 to 2022 for Coleto Creek (USGS gage number 08177500) (USGS, 2024b), and from water years 2013 2014 to 2022 for Guadalupe River at State Highway (SH) 35 near Tivoli, Texas (USGS gage number 0818881000) (USGS, 2024d); however, the latter data are incomplete and comprise only five years of complete data. For the San Antonio River, the nearest gage with a long and reliable record is located at Goliad, Texas (USGS gage number 08188500) from water years 1925 to 2022 2023 (USGS, 2024e).

Records were also available from water years 2006 to 2022 for McFaddin on the San Antonio River (USGS gage number 08188570) (USGS, 2024c) (see Section 2.4.1). Monthly discharge data are available for the station at the north end of the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) Calhoun Canal near the LMGS site, however, this gage has less than seven years of data. The annual peak discharges and corresponding gage heights for the period of record for the Guadalupe River and Coleto Creek gages at Victoria and for the San Antonio River gages at Goliad and McFaddin are listed in Table 2.4.2-1 through Table 2.4.2-4. Plots of the annual peak discharges at these gages are shown in Figure 2.4.2-1 through Figure 2.4.2-4. The data presented in these tables and figures are the annual maximum peak discharges by water year.

A water year begins on October 1 of the calendar year preceding the water year and ends on September 30 of the water year (i.e., water year 2006 begins on October 1, 2005, and ends September 30, 2006).

Figure 2.4.1-6 depicts the locations of stream gages on the Guadalupe and San Antonio Rivers.

Based on the annual peak discharges of the nearby stream gages, it is evident that the floods of record for both the San Antonio River and Coleto Creek occurred in 1967.

The flood of record for the Guadalupe River at Victoria occurred in October 1998, with a peak discharge of 466,000 cfs (13,196 m3/s). This event corresponds to severe flooding for much of southeastern Texas. The flood of record for many gaging stations in the region occurred in

Long Mott Generating Station Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 2.4 Hydrology 2.4.2-2 November 2025 October of 1998, and much damage was attributed to this flooding event in Victoria and other towns in southeastern Texas (USGS 1999). USGS records indicate that at the time of the event, new peak discharges were established at 11 gaging stations on the San Antonio and Guadalupe Rivers with the most historically significant peaks occurring at Cuero and Victoria and the peak discharge at Victoria approximately 2.6 times the previously recorded peak discharge. Rainfall records in the Guadalupe River Basin indicate that the storm was centered downstream of Canyon Dam with significantly more rainfall occurring on the watershed downstream of the dam (USGS, 1999).

The October 1998 flood produced the third highest flow on record at the San Antonio River gage at Goliad, with the second highest occurring in July of 2002. USGS data indicates that the largest rainfall in the San Antonio River basin associated with the 1998 storm occurred in the upstream areas. However, flood peaks on the lower San Antonio River exceeded the 100-year recurrence interval at Elmendorf and Falls City (USGS, 1999).

Flow data at all five stream gages are affected by upstream flow regulation. This is especially true for flow data on Coleto Creek near Victoria. The Coleto Creek near Victoria stream gage is located a short distance downstream of Coleto Creek Dam and Reservoir, and its stream flow record reflects primarily the discharge from the dam (See Figure 2.4.1-6) (USGS, 2023b). The Coleto Creek Reservoir serves as a cooling basin for the Coleto Creek Power coal-fired power plant.

The LMGS site is located on the north-east corner of San Antonio Bay at latitude 28.525°,

longitude 96.765° (Figure 2.4.5-1) and at approximately 16 mi (25.7 km) inland upstream of Coleto Creek from its confluence with Powderhorn Lake, TexasX, there are no records of flooding from hurricane surges near the site. However, coastal areas near the site have recorded flood levels as a result of hurricane-induced surges. A detailed description of historical hurricane events and storm surges along the Texas coast is presented in Section 2.4.5.

The most intense hurricane, with highest central pressure deficit and wind speed, that made landfall near the LMGS site shoreline was the Indianola hurricane in August 1886 (Blake et al.,

2007 and NOAA, 2024c). Hurricanes Carla and Harvey were the most severe hurricanes along the Texas coast near the LMGS site in recent history. Landfall for both hurricanes was on Matagorda Bay. Hurricane Carla made landfall with a maximum surge water level of about 16.6 ft (5.1 m) above mean sea level (MSL) at Port Lavaca (Pararas-Karayannis, 1975),

approximately 17.3 ft (5.3 m) North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88) based on the vertical datum conversion factor at Rockport, Texas (NOAA, 2024f). The highest six water levels at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) tide gage stations at Corpus Christi, Texas (NOAA, 2024d), and Freeport, Texas (NOAA, 2024e; NOAA, 2025), are shown in Table 2.4.2-6. These water levels are all well below the top of building foundations of 31.5 ft (9.75 m) NAVD 88 for all safety-related facilities at the LMGS site.

The highest maximum storm tides from Hurricane Harvey were observed at the Aransas Wildlife Refuge, where the storm surge levels reached a maximum of 12.5 ft (3.8 m) above ground level.

Storm surge in Port Lavaca was also more than 6.78 mean higher high water (MHHW) (NOAA, 2024a) and at least 6 ft (1.8 m) in Port Aransas. Storm tide levels in the interior bays were generally from 5 to 8 ft (1.5 to 2.4 m) with higher levels, near 10 ft (3 m), on the south end of Copano Bay, the north end of Aransas Bay, and the north end of Lavaca Bay (NOAA, 2024b).

Elsewhere across South Texas, storm tide levels reached near 3 to 6 ft (0.9 to 1.8 m)ly 7 ft (2

Long Mott Generating Station Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 2.4 Hydrology 2.4.2-3 November 2025 m) (NAVD 88) above ground level at Seadrift, Port O'Connor, Holiday Beach, Port Aransas, and Bob Hall Pier.

There are no records of any ice sheet formation, wind-driven ice ridges, or ice jams on any of the rivers, creeks, or estuaries near the LMGS site, as described in Section 2.4.7. Neither are there any records of dam break flooding nor landside-induced tsunami or distant tsunami source-induced flooding events near the LMGS site, as described in Section 2.4.4 and Section 2.4.6, respectively.

2.4.2.2 Flood Design Considerations The design basis flooding elevation for the LMGS site is determined by considering a number of different flooding scenarios. The potential flooding scenarios applicable and investigated for the site include:

Probable maximum flood (PMF) on streams and rivers Potential dam failures Probable maximum surge and seiche flooding Probable maximum tsunami Flooding due to ice effects Potential flooding caused by channel diversions The flooding scenarios were postulated to occur in conjunction with other flooding and meteorological events as applicable, such as wind-generated waves and tidal levels, as recommended in the guidelines presented in American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

American Nuclear Society (ANS) Standard ANSI/ANS-2.8-1992 (ANSI/ANS, 1992). Detailed assessments of the flooding impacts on the safety functions of LMGS from each of these postulated flooding events are described in Section 2.4.3 through Section 2.4.7 and Section 2.4.9.

The estimation of the PMF water level on the Guadalupe River is described in Section 2.4.3.

Different combinations of parameters including probable maximum precipitation (PMP) storm events and antecedent water levels, contributing catchment areas, upstream reservoir releases, and base flow conditions are considered in estimating the PMF stream-flow magnitude. The maximum PMF stillwater level for the Guadalupe River at the LMGS site has been determined to be at elevation 31.528.0 ft (9.68.53 m) (NAVD 88). The total water level comprised of stillwater, wave runup, wind setup, and sea level rise due to PMF is 40.80 ft (12.44 m) NAVD

88. However, due to the presence of high bluff areas on the west side of the plant, the site is not flooded during the PMF event. Additional site-specific analyses and associated information that includes the postulated coincidental wind setup and wave run-up will be combined with the PMF results and be provided by the end of 2025. These updated results are not expected to impact the maximum PMF water level estimate.

The preliminary estimation of the PMF water level on the Coloma Creek is described in Section 2.4.3. The maximum PMF water level for the Coloma Creek at the LMGS site has been

Long Mott Generating Station Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 2.4 Hydrology 2.4.2-4 November 2025 determined to be at elevation 32 ft (9.7 m) (NAVD 88). The postulated PMF on Coloma Creek coincidental wind setup and wave run-up is estimated to be 33 ft (10.1 m). Therefore, the site is flooded by 2 ft (0.61 m) during PMF on Coloma Creek event.

The preliminary impacts of postulated dam failures on the LMGS safety-related structures, systems, and components ( SSCs) are described in Section 2.4.4. Two aspects of flooding are considered. The flood elevation at the site is investigated as a result of dam failure in the Guadalupe River basin and its tributaries upstream of the site. The maximum PMF water level for the Guadalupe River from upstream dam failure at the LMGS site has been determined to be at elevation 3327.89 ft (10.18.5 m) (NAVD 88). The total water level comprised of stillwater, wave runup, wind setup, and sea level rise due to dam failure is 38.42 ft (11.71 m) NAVD 88.

However, due to the presence of high bluff areas on the west side of the plant, the site is not flooded during the dam failure event. Additional site-specific analyses and associated information that includes the postulated coincidental wind setup and wave run-up will be combined with the dam failure results and be provided by the end of 2025. These updated results are not expected to impact the maximum PMFwater level estimate.

The impacts of failure of onsite water control structures are described in Section 2.4.4. Onsite basins 5 and 31 are shown in Figure 2.4.1-1 and described in Section 2.4.1.1. A maximum flood elevation of 32.531.8 ft (9.7 m) (NAVD 88) was determined at the LMGS site as a result of the postulated cooling embankment breach. As noted above, all the safety-related facilities have a top of building foundation elevation of 31.5 ft (9.6 m) (NAVD 88), which indicates no flooding during onsite basin failure that flood protection for safety-related SSCs is necessary.

Probable maximum surge and seiche flooding as a result of the probable maximum hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico is presented in Section 2.4.5. The maximum water level at the LMGS site is estimated to be elevation 41.4736.38 ft (12.611.1 m) (NAVD 88). This predicted flood elevation is higher than the site grade by 5.38 ft (1.64 m). The total water level comprised of stillwater and wave runup, applicable only to the buildings, is 46.49 ft (14.17 m) NAVD 88. This is higher than the site grade maximum water level because of the effects of wave runup on the buildings.

This preliminary predicted flood elevation is higher than the site grade by 10.47 ft (3.19m).

Requirements for SSCs ensure that water ingress from the DBHL external flood does not adversely impact the capability of SR SSCs inside the Shield Structure (SST) and Fuel Handling Building (FHAB) to fulfill their RSFs, as discussed in Section 6.4 and Section 7.3, respectively.

Additional site-specific analyses and associated information that includes the postulated coincidental wind setup and wave run-up will be combined with the storm surge results and be provided by the end of 2025. These updated results are not expected to impact the maximum water level estimate at the LMGS site.

Section 2.4.6 describes the estimation of the probable maximum tsunami water level and includes the effects of landslide-induced tsunami events. The maximum water level associated with a probable maximum tsunami including sea level rise, wind setup, and wave runup at the LMGS site is about 17.06 ft (5.2 m) (NAVD 88). Therefore, the probable maximum tsunami would not be a flood risk to the LMGS site. The expected sea level rise is described in Section 2.4.5.

As described in Section 2.4.7 and Section 2.4.9, it is unlikely that ice effects and channel diversions, respectively, would pose any flood risk to the LMGS site. The maximum water level due to a local PMP storm event is estimated and described in Subsection 2.4.2.3. The

Long Mott Generating Station Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 2.4 Hydrology 2.4.2-5 November 2025 maximum water level in the nuclear island area due to a local PMP storm event is estimated to be at elevation 33.5 ft (10.21 m) (NAVD 88). The maximum flood depth due to the local PMP storm event is 2 ft (0.61 m) above the top of the foundation of the safety-related structures of LMGS.

2.4.2.3 Effects of Local Intense Precipitation The effects of LIP or local PMP in the vicinity of the LMGS site are described in this subsection.

The site drainage system and grading plan is not available at this time and therefore conservative assumptions are made to determine the effects of local PMP flooding on safety-related facilities.

2.4.2.3.1 Probable Maximum Precipitation Depths The basis for the LIP is the all-season, 1 mi2 or point PMP as obtained from the U.S. National Weather Service Hydrometeorological Reports No. 51 and 52 (HMR 51 and HMR 52) (NOAA, 1978 and NOAA, 1982). The estimated PMP depths presented in HMR 51 are for durations ranging from 6 to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> and for drainage areas ranging from 10 to 20,000 mi2 (26 to 51,800 km2). Using these depths, HMR 52 provides procedures for estimating short duration point (or 1 mi2) PMP depths for durations up to one hour. Figures 24 and 36 in HMR 52 provide point PMP depths of 19.4 in. (493 mm) for a 1-hour duration and 6.2 in. (157 mm) for a 5-minute duration.

Fifteen-minute and 30-min durations were estimated by applying the point ratios to 1-hr rainfall from Figures 37 and 38 in HMR 52, respectively. The 6-hr rainfall is from Figure 18 of HMR 5251. The 15-min, 60-min, and 6-hr rainfall depth are 9.7 in., 14.2 in., and 32 in. (246 mm, 361 mm, 813 mm), respectively. Table 2.4.2-5 presents the 1 mi2 PMP depths and intensities for various durations used in the analysis at the LMGS site. Then, according to Appendix B of NUREG/CR-7046, the PMP rainfall time series (see Figure 2.4.2-5) with 5-min interval was constructed by:

The first time step was set to the highest LIP depth, which is 6.2 in (157 mm)

The next two 5-minute time steps were set to an incremental precipitation depth of 1.75 in. ([9.7 - 6.2]/2 in.) (44 mm)

Incremental precipitation depths for the subsequent time steps were determined from the cumulative LIP depths shown in Table 2.4.2-5 2.4.2.3.2 Local Drainage Components and Sub-basins The LMGS site nuclear island arrangement is shown in Figure 2.4.2-6. The nuclear island area is constructed on fill material that elevates the area by approximately 4 ft (1.2 m) from the existing grade. Grading inside the nuclear island and the drainage system of the site are not yet designed, therefore the following conservative assumptions are made:

1. Nuclear island area is flat.
2. For the flooding analysis performed for the LIP or the local PMP event, all storm drains, culverts, and catch basins were assumed clogged. Thus, the storm drain collection system and storm water management basins were assumed to be inoperable and were not considered in the flood analysis.

Long Mott Generating Station Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 2.4 Hydrology 2.4.2-6 November 2025

3. No vehicle barrier system or fence considered around the site and flow over the site is allowed to naturally drain away from the nuclear island site boundaries on all four sides.

A PMP runoff analysis was performed on the LMGS nuclear island area to determine the maximum water levels during the PMP event and compare them to the design plant grade elevations for the safety-related structures. Drainage paths that could affect water levels near safety-related structures were determined by performing a two-dimensional hydraulic and hydrologic model. Drainage paths in other areas outside of the nuclear island that did not affect flood levels near safety-related structures were not analyzed.

2.4.2.3.3 Flood Elevations The two-dimensional FLO-2D model is used to route floodwater in natural manner without being forced to flow in predefined directions (FLO-2D). This allows for a more accurate flood analysis than is possible with one-dimensional (1D) models. The site is modeled as flat surface with building as obstructions. The extent of the FLO-2D model and building footprints are illustrated in Figure 2.4.2-7. The model boundaries are placed at the edge of the raised area away from safety-related Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs). The FLO-2D model covers an area of approximately 0.1 mi2 (0.26 km2).

Rainfall estimated on above sections is applied directly to each FLO-2D grid cell. Applying rainfall directly using the LIP distribution is more representative of the physical runoff process than an approach that uses inflow hydrographs (e.g., using the Rational Method) because in this analysis every grid cell receives water. Runoff is allowed to leave the FLO-2D model at all boundaries. Consequently, any water that reaches a boundary is allowed to flow out of the model in a natural manner by assigning outflow cells along the entire boundary.

Square cell sizes of 5 ft (1.5 m) were selected to properly model the locations of the buildings.

Considering the site grade is covered by crushed compact stone, a conservative Manning's roughness coefficient of 0.04 (Chow, 1959) is assigned to the entire model. Similar to Case 1 of NUREG/CR-7046, soil infiltration is not considered. Buildings, tanks, and other structures (Figure 2.4.2-6) are characterized in FLO-2D with Area Reduction Factors (ARF) and Width Reduction Factors (WRF). A shape-file that outlines buildings, tanks, and other structures is imported into FLO-2D, which computes the corresponding ARFs and WRFs.

To ensure that water drains off roofs appropriately, the grid cell elevations of cells blocked by large buildings or tanks (i.e., cells that represent the roof or tank top) are raised by 3 ft (0.9 m).

Vehicle Barrier Systems are not provided in the preliminary layout and not considered in the analysis.

The FLO-2D results show that the maximum flood depth in the vicinity of the buildings, where the safety-related doors are located, is about 24 in. (0.61 m) above the finish grade.

Representative PMP flood depth time series at the site is presented in Figure 2.4.2-8. Flood waters during the PMP event will remain above the top of foundation elevation for a duration of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

Maximum velocity is less than 0.5 fps during both scenarios; therefore, there is no concern on erosion at the site.
