s of heat dissipation on the atmosphere. ` ESRP 3.5. Obtain descriptions of potential release points for radioactive effluents for use in atmospheric transport and diffusion calculation. ` ESRP 3.6.3. Obtain descriptions of non-radiological emission to the atmosphere for evaluation of the impacts of plant construction and operation on air quality (include emissions from vehicles). ` ESRP 4.4.1. Provide estimates of the impact of construction activity on air quality. ` ESRP 5.1.1 and 5.8.1. Provide estimates of the impacts of plant operation on air quality. ` ESRP 5.3.2.1. Provide a description of the meteorology at the site of the proposed plant. ` ESRP 5.3.3.1. Provide meteorological data as required to analyze and evaluate heat dissipation system effects on the atmosphere. ` ESRPs 5.4.1 and 5.4.2. Obtain locations of the nearest receptors in each 22½q sector for atmospheric transport and diffusion calculations. Provide summaries of relative concentration and relative deposition values estimated or approved by the staff and a comparison of the values determined by the staff and the applicant, if they are substantially different from each other. ` ESRP 6.2. Provide an assessment of the adequacy of air-sampling locations and indicate additional air-sampling locations, if appropriate. ` ESRP 6.4. Provide an assessment of the adequacy of meteorological monitoring. ` ESRP 7.1 and 7.2. Provide meteorological data to analyze and evaluate the effects of plant accidents involving radioactive material. ` ESRP 9.4.1. Provide meteorological data to evaluate heat dissipation of alternative systems. 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. Adequate characterization of atmospheric transport and diffusion processes within 80 km (50 mi) of the plant is necessary, and may include presentation
