hat an evaluation of the hydrological monitoring programs can be completed. October 1999 4.3.2-3 NUREG-1555 ` ESRP 6.5.2. Provide information on impacts on the aquatic environment from construction in sufficient detail to permit evaluation of the applicant’s proposed monitoring program. ` ESRP 6.6. Provide information on impacts on the aquatic ecosystem from construction so that a description and evaluation of the water-quality monitoring programs can be completed. ` ESRPs 9.3 and 9.4. Provide a notification to the reviewers of ESRPs 9.3 and 9.4 that alternative locations and plant or component designs should be considered if the reviewer determines that a proposed construction activity will result in an adverse environmental impact that cannot be mitigated by alternative construction practices and procedures. ` ESRP 10.1. Provide a brief summary of the unavoidable impacts that are expected to occur during construction. This should be limited to the more significant impacts (e.g., temporary loss of habitat for “important” species). ` ESRP 10.2. Provide a brief summary of irreversible and irretrievable commitments of aquatic resources that are expected to occur during construction. For example, this would include any permanent loss of aquatic habitat or loss of wetlands. Data and Information Needs The type of data and information needed will be affected by site- and station-specific factors, and the degree of detail should be modified according to the anticipated magnitude of the potential impacts. The following site and vicinity data or information should be obtained: ` a map of the site and vicinity delineating areas of construction, particularly those where habitat of “important” species (see definition in Table 2.4.2-1) is expected to be altered, such as areas to be cleared along stream banks and areas proposed for the disposal of dredged material (from the environmental report [ER] and ESRP Section 3.1) ` the proposed schedule of construction
