applicable). October 1999 8.1-5 NUREG-1555 (3) Identify the appropriate electric reliability council region. (a) Examine any pertinent power pool agreements. (b) Examine the applicant’s major power purchases/sales with neighboring utility companies. (c) Examine any wheeling or diversity interchange agreements. (4) Ensure that the information and data derived from the analysis are adequate to serve as a basis for characterizing the applicant’s service area and its regional relationships. (a) Identify any unusual features that affect subsequent evaluations of the need for power (e.g., large industrial customers, a noncontiguous service area). (b) Ensure that these features are accounted for and have been explained. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The information and data obtained from this analysis should be organized into subsections as follows: ` A brief introductory paragraph that contains the name(s) of the applicant(s), the percentage share of the proposed plant that each applicant will own, the station name, the number of generating units proposed, the net electrical rating of each proposed unit, and the applicant’s proposed month and year of initial commercial operation of each unit. ` A section that contains maps indicating the geographical and political boundaries of the relevant service area, the power pool (if applicable), and the appropriate electric reliability region. The service-area map should indicate electrical transfer capabilities between the applicant and neighboring utilities and also the major electrical load centers. The population to be served by the applicant should be stated along with the area of the system (in square kilometers). Major types of customers should be identified as well as any atypical situations (e.g., an extremely large industrial customer). The primary types of industry and commerce for the region should also be identified. ` A section that contains a brief description of any relevant power pool and appropriate electric-
