    WATTS BAR WBNP 92 2.4 HYDROLOGIC ENGINEERING Watts Bar Nuclear Plant is located on the right bank of Chickamauga Lake at Tennessee River Mile (TRM) 528 with plant grade at elevation 728 MSL. The plant has been designed to have the capability for safe shutdown in floods up to the computed maximum water level, in accordance with regulatory position 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.59, Revision 2, August 1977. Determination of the maximum flood level included consideration of postulated dam failures from seismic and hydrologic causes. The maximum flood Elevation 734.9 would result from an occurrence of the probable maximum storm. Allowances for concurrent wind waves could raise lake levels to Elevation 736.2 with run up on the 4:1 slopes approaching the plant reaching about Elevation 736.9. The nearest surface water user located downstream from Watts Bar Nuclear Plant is Dayton, Tennessee, at TRM 503.8, 24.2 miles downstream. All surface water supplies withdrawn from the 58.9 mile reach of the mainstream of the Tennessee River between Watts Bar Dam (TRM 529.9) and Chickamauga Dam (TRM 471.0) are listed in Table 2.4-4. The probable minimum flow past the site is estimated to be 2000 cfs, which is more than adequate for plant water requirements. 2.4.1 Hydrological Description 2.4.1.1 Sites and Facilities The location of key plant structures and their relationship to the original site topography is shown on Figure 2.1-5. The structures which have safety-related equipment and systems are indicated on this figure and are tabulated below along with the elevation of exterior accesses.
