Winter operations, 1970-1971 / John C. Ayers, Norbert W. O'Hara, William L. Yocum.

LEGENDS FOR COLOR PHOTOS, SECTION D Fig. 1. The conditions of ice and the thermal plume of Consumers Power Company's Big Rock Nuclear Station on 18 February 1971. Shore ice ridges reach up to, and into, the discharge channel. Fig. 2. The two outfalls of the Traverse City, Michigan, Generating Station. At the right in front of generating station is the melt-hole of the plant's submerged outfall. Shore ice ridges are evident alongshore behind the melt-hole of the submerged outfall. 18 February 1971. Fig. 3. The melt-hole of the submerged outfall of the DuPont Chemical Company at Montague, Michigan. The small melt-hole is visible in the middle three-quarters distance between the basic shore ice structure and an outlying ice barrier. 18 February 1971. Fig. 4. A distant view of the complete plume from Consumers Power Company's Campbell Plant at Port Sheldon, Michigan. The slightly steaming plume has melted the adjacent shore ice, but the shore shows no evidence of erosion. At least three wading fishermen are visible in the plume. 24 February 1971. Fig. 5, A south-to-north panorama of the plume of the Campbell Plant on 10 6, March. A heavy ridge of ice lies completely around the Campbell plume. and 7. Ten fishermen are present within the plume in the three photographs. 10 March 1971. Fig. 8. The discharge channel of Consumers Power Company's Palisades Plant near South Haven, Michigan. The two inshore ridges of the icefoot reach up to the discharge flume structures. The frozen lagoon and outer barrier ice ridge are disrupted by the water-flow (with no heat) from the plant. 24 February 1971. Fig. 9. A distant view of Northern Indiana Public Service Company's Michigan City generating station. The plant's discharge channel is at the right middle distance, and has ice on both sides of it. 17 March 1971. Fig. 10. Ice conditions in Michigan City harbor, looking eastward on 10 March 1971. Ice-coated riprap and sheet piles show along the front right side of the picture, but in the right three-quarters distance there is a heavy curving vertical-faced rampart of shore ice within the enclosed harbor. Fig. 11. The plume from the Michigan City generating station, as visible in the floe ice of the harbor; the plume enters from the left foreground. 10 March 1971. Fig. 12. Shore ice conditions at NIPSCO's Bailly Station on 17 March 1971. Shore ice reaches up to both sides of the plant's iron-sheet discharge flume. The plant's circular stone intake structure lies offshore at the edge of blue water, and a visible plume of blue water emerges from the discharge flume. 36
