reviewer for ESRP 9.4.1 for verification that the modifications are practical and will lead to an improvement in the benefit-cost balance. The reviewer should prepare a list of verified modifications and measures and controls to limit the corresponding impact. These lists should be given to the reviewer for ESRP 5.10. ` The impact is adverse and is of such magnitude that it should be avoided, if it cannot be mitigated. If the degree of expected impacts falls within the third order category (hundreds of hours of increase in fog and ice or hundreds of kilograms of salt drift per hectare per year), the reviewer may conclude that the impacts of operation are sufficiently adverse that consideration of alternative designs or locations to avoid the impact is warranted. When impacts of this nature are identified, the reviewer should inform the EPM and the reviewer for ESRP 9.4.1 that an analysis and evaluation of alterna- tive designs or procedures is needed. The reviewer should participate in any such analysis and evaluation of alternatives that would avoid the impact and that could be considered practical. If no October 1999 5.3.3.2-7 NUREG-1555 such alternatives can be identified, the reviewer should provide this conclusion to the reviewer for ESRP 10.1. V. IMPLEMENTATION The method described herein will be used by the staff in evaluating conformance with the Commission’s regulations, except in those cases in which the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative for complying with specified portions of the regulations.
