detail to support the analyses made in ESRP 5.3.1.2. ` ESRP 5.2.1. Obtain information regarding hydrological alterations from operation and the adequacy of the plant water supply so that an evaluation of impacts to the aquatic ecosystem from the cooling system intake can be completed. ` ESRP 5.2.2. Provide information regarding impacts on the aquatic ecosystem from the cooling system intake so that an evaluation of impacts of operation on plant water use can be completed. ` ESRP 5.3.1.1. Obtain information regarding physical impacts caused by the flow field induced by the intake system so that an evaluation of impacts on the aquatic ecosystem from the cooling system intake can be completed. ` ESRP 5.10. Provide a list of potentially adverse impacts of the cooling system intake on aquatic biota and a list of applicant commitments to limit these adverse impacts. ` ESRP 6.5.2. Provide a discussion of any preoperational baseline monitoring programs necessary to assess impacts of intake system operation. ` ESRP 9.4.2. Provide a list of adverse impacts of intake system operation that could be mitigated or avoided through alternative system design, location, or operation and assist in determining appropriate alternatives. ` ESRP 10.1. Provide a summary of the unavoidable adverse impacts on aquatic biota that are predicted to occur as a result of intake system operation. ` ESRP 10.2. Provide a summary of irreversible and irretrievable commitments of aquatic resources that are predicted to occur as a result of intake system operation. 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. The following information should be obtained: ` susceptibility of “important” aquatic species (as defined in Table 2.4.2-1) to entrainment, entrapment, and impingement (from the environmental report [ER] and the
