ns identified are as follows: ` Regulatory Guide 4.2, Rev. 2, Preparation of Environmental Reports for Nuclear Power Stations (NRC 1976) with respect to benefits and costs to nearby populations during operations. Technical Rationale The technical rationale for evaluating the applicant’s socioeconomic impacts during operations is discussed in the following paragraph: In accordance with 10 CFR 51.45(d), the applicant is required to submit in the ER socioeconomic impact information needed for evaluating these factors. Similar information is required to be present NUREG-1555 5.8.2-4 October 1999 in the EIS pursuant to 10 CFR 51.71. Any significant economic and community impacts on the site environs potentially resulting from plant operation should be documented. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer’s analysis of the social and economic impacts of operation should be linked to the environmental descriptions provided by the reviewer for ESRP 2.5.2 and the construction impact assessments of ESRP 4.4.2. The reviewer should ensure that those environmental factors most likely to be impacted by operation of the proposed plant are described in sufficient detail to permit assessment of the predicted impacts. To evaluate this information, the reviewer should take the following steps: (1) Identify and analyze components of the regional and community social, political, and economic systems that would be potentially impacted. (2) Determine, from the full scope of potential impacts, those that are minor and those that are likely to be sufficiently important to require detailed analysis. ` Generally, operating impacts other than those related to tax revenues will be less than the corresponding impacts of construction. ` It may not be necessary to re-address impacts determined to be minor by the reviewer for ESRP 4.4.2. (3) Where practical, develop quantitative measures of identified adverse impacts. (4) Consult with the reviewers for ESRPs 5.1.1 and 5.2.2 to determine if any of the
