REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary—Appendix B Secondary—Appendix B I. AREAS OF REVIEW This environmental standard review plan (ESRP) directs the staff’s analysis of population distribution within an 80-km (50-mi) radius of the proposed site in sufficient detail to provide input to analyses of radiological impacts and accident impacts and to provide support for socioeconomic analysis. The scope of the review directed by this plan should include verification of current population distri- butions, population distributions predicted at the time of plant startup, and for 10-year increments reaching 40 years from the latest decennial census. Both permanent and transient populations should be identified. Review Interfaces The reviewer for this ESRP should obtain input from or provide input to reviewers for the following ESRPs, as indicated: ` ESRP 2.5.2. Provide population forecast data. ` ESRP 2.5.4. Provide demographic data for comparison with data obtained on minority and low- income populations. ` ESRPs 4.4.1, 4.4.2, 5.8.1, and 5.8.2. Provide community distribution and population forecast data. NUREG-1555 2.5.1-2 October 1999 ` ESRPs 5.4.1, 5.4.2, and 7.1. Provide population forecast data. 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. Because this plan is primarily for orientation and to provide a baseline, the information needed can usually be obtained from the applicant’s environmental report (ER). Population data presented should be based on the current decade census data and, where available, more recent data. The following data or information should be obtained: ` Population Within 16 km (10 mi). On a map of suitable scale that identifies places of significant population grouping, such as cities and towns within a 16-km (10-mi) radius, concentric circles should be drawn (with
