or offsite areas will cause only small changes in the land use of publicly dedicated areas; urban development; land meeting the statutory definition of prime or unique, having a relative value rating placing it within the top half in terms of agricultural production in the local government jurisdiction, or having a land capability classification of I or II, (see Section III of ESRP 4.1.1); or other specially significant land uses, it may be concluded that the expected impacts on land use are not of major significance and that there are no land-use considerations that would influence the decision on issuance of a construction permit. October 1999 4.1.2-9 NUREG-1555 ` If certain segments (each on the order of 2 km [1.2 miles] or less) of the corridors are proposed to pass through publicly dedicated areas, urban development, land meeting the statutory definition of prime or unique, having a relative value rating placing it within the top half in terms of agricultural production in the local government jurisdiction, or having a land capability classification of I or II (see “Review Procedures” in ESRP 4.1.1); or other specially significant areas, but the remainder of the corridor meets the specifications in the paragraph above, it may be concluded that these segments could have impacts that would suggest either actions to mitigate the impact or segment realignment to avoid the impact. If either of these conclusions is reached, the reviewer should prepare a full description of the problem areas and mitigating actions or alternative alignments that should be considered. ` If construction of a corridor as proposed would (1) require realignment (as in the paragraph above) in numerous locations (on the order of five or more), (2) traverse more than several kilometers of dedicated public lands or housing areas, or (3) cause more than a small change to land meeting the statutory definition of prime or unique, having a relative value rating placing it within the top half
