ial conflicts. If there would be immediate conflicts, or if conflicts could arise in the future when the plans are finished ..., the EIS must acknowledge and describe the extent of those conflicts. If there are any possibilities of resolving the conflicts, these should be explained as well. The EIS should also evaluate the seriousness of the impact of the proposal on the land-use plans and policies, and whether, or how much, the proposal will impair the effectiveness of land-use control mechanisms for the area. Comments from officials of the affected area should be solicited early and should be carefully acknowledged and answered in the EIS. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The analysis of the land-use impacts of operation of the transmission corridors, access corridors, and offsite areas is an extension of the analysis conducted under the review of ESRP 4.1.2. The same consid- erations outlined in the Review Procedures of ESRP 4.1.2 should apply. Additional considerations include land-use restrictions or changes that could occur because of maintenance practices, access- corridor use, noise, or electric or magnetic fields. The reviewer should conduct the evaluation of land-use impacts in transmission corridors and other offsite areas resulting from station operation using the procedures outlined in ESRP 4.1.2. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The review should accomplish the following objectives: (1) public disclosure of major direct land-use consequences from operation of the transmission corridors and offsite areas, (2) presentation of the basis of the staff analysis of the project, and (3) presentation of staff conclusions and recommendations regarding land use. October 1999 5.1.2-5 NUREG-1555 Because the review for this section is closely allied to the review for ESRP 4.1.2, the reviewer should recognize that some information may be included in ESRP 4.1.2. The reviewer should not repeat the information in ESRP 5.1.2, but should refer to ESRP 4.1.2 instead, including in this ESRP
