ction 110 of the same act (U.S. Department of the Interior and Advisory Council on Historic Preservation 1989). III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer’s analysis and evaluation of operational impact on historic and archaeological resources should be based on the concurrent review of construction impacts (ESRP 4.1.3). Only the impacts of operation that differ from those resulting from construction need be assessed. In this respect, a temporal extension of an impact from the construction phase through the operational life of the project is not a dif- ferent impact. Where the reviewer determines that the impacts of operation on cultural and historic resources have been adequately considered by the review directed by ESRP 4.1.3, no further review should be required. If the reviewer determines that there will be an impact of operation that would not have been considered by the reviewer for ESRP 4.1.3 (e.g., the impact of the visual plume from a cooling tower), the reviewer should assess that operational impact as an extension of the review directed by ESRP 4.1.3. NUREG-1555 5.1.3-4 October 1999 IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The ESRP review should be designed to accomplish the following objectives: (1) public disclosure of impacts resulting from operation, (2) presentation of the basis for the staff analysis, and (3) presentation of staff conclusions, regarding impacts of the reviewed operational activities on historic properties. The following information should be included in the environmental impact statement (EIS): Where there will be no impacts that are unique to plant operation, the following wording should be used: The staff determined that the impacts of operation on historic properties will be no more than temporal extensions of the impacts of construction assessed in ESRP 4.1.3. Consequently, no further discussion is required. Where the impacts of operation differ from those described in ESRP 4.1.3, the reviewer should include a description of these impacts on those
