Jacksonville processed 579,924 vehicles. Auto Services Inc. had to wash 50,000 cars to remove soot, the letter from the company's attorney said in 2002. The soot did not cause any damage to the vehicles, but a fallout occurring during a drizzle or when dew forms on vehicles could release acid that mars plastic equipment, the letter said. The JEA paid $ 82,000 to the vehicle-processing company to cover the cost of washing automobiles during the summer of 2002, according to JEA spokesman.

During that time, the demand for cooling water was approximately 827 Mgd (574,000 US gallons (2,170 m) per minute): 24.5% for Unit 1, 24.5% for Unit 2, and 51% for Unit 3. This amount of surface water supplied to the station was approximately 10% of the average flow passing through the back channel of the St. Johns River.
