eeds 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 data or information should be obtained: ` descriptions of nonradioactive effluent treatment facilities except those covered in ESRPs 3.3.2, 3.6.2, and 3.6.3 (from the environmental report [ER]) ` average, maximum, and seasonal variations of principal constituents of intake and receiving waters and any minor or trace materials that may be of environmental relevance (from ESRP 2.3.3) ` a list of chemicals processed through each system (e.g., corrosion inhibitors, antifouling agents) (from ESRP 3.3.2), and total amounts used per year, frequency of use, and concentrations of these chemicals or their products in each waste stream (from the ER) ` the concentration factor on a seasonal basis for evaporative cooling systems (from ESRP 3.4.2) ` the average and maximum concentration of natural materials in effluent streams (from ESRP 2.3.3) ` the operating cycles for each effluent treatment system for normal modes of plant operation (e.g., full power operation, shutdown/refueling, startup) (from the ER). II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Acceptance criteria for review of waste effluents are based on the relevant requirements of the following: ` 40 CFR 122 with respect to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit conditions for discharges, including storm water discharges ` 40 CFR 147 with respect to restrictions or waste disposal ` 40 CFR 165 with respect to liquid effluents ` 40 CFR 403 with respect to effluent standards October 1999 3.6.1-3 NUREG-1555 ` 40 CFR 423 with respect to effluent limitations on existing and new point sources ` Federal, State, local, regional, and Native American tribal water laws and water rights. Regulatory positions and specific criteria necessary to meet the regulations identified above are as follows: `
