within the region that affect or could potentially affect the same threatened and endangered species (or their habitats) that occur on or near the site (from the ER) ` an estimate of the potential for bird collisions with cooling towers or other elevated construction equipment or plant structures (from the ER and consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies) NUREG-1555 4.3.1-4 October 1999 Additional background information about the terrestrial ecology of the site and vicinity, necessary for this review of impacts on terrestrial resources from construction, is requested in ESRP Section 2.4.1 and can be found in the ER, general literature, and from consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies. The following data and information about transmission corridors and offsite areas should be obtained: ` clearing methods, erosion, runoff and siltation control methods (both temporary and permanent), dust suppression methods, and other construction practices for impact control or minimization specific to the proposed transmission system (from the ER). ` potential for bird collisions with transmission towers or lines (from the ER and consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies). Additional background information about the terrestrial ecology of transmission corridors and offsite areas, necessary for this review of impacts to terrestrial resources from construction, is requested in ESRP 2.4.1 and can be found in the ER, general literature, and from consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Acceptance criteria for the review of construction impacts on terrestrial ecology in the vicinity of the site and transmission corridors are based on the relevant requirements of the following: ` 10 CFR 51.71(d) with respect to including in the EIS information on
