ation density site having superior seismic characteristics, better railroad or highway access, shorter transmission line requirements, or less environmental impact upon undeveloped areas, wetlands, or endangered species. The staff should evaluate projected changes in population within about 5 years after initial site approval for the proposed site and any alternative sites considered. Population growth after initial site approval will not be a factor in license renewal, or used to impose any license conditions or restrictions on an operating plant. 6. Review Procedures Specific to 10 CFR Part 52 Application Type A. Early Site Permit Reviews Subpart A to 10 CFR Part 52 specifies the requirements and procedures applicable to the Commission’s review of an ESP application for approval of a proposed site. Information required in an ESP application includes a description of the site characteristics and design parameters of the proposed site. The scope and level of detail of review of data parallel that used for a CP review. In the absence of certain circumstances, such as a compliance or adequate protection issue, 10 CFR 52.39 precludes the staff from imposing new site characteristics, design parameters, or terms and conditions on the early site permit at the COL stage. Accordingly, the reviewer should ensure that all physical attributes of the site that could affect the design basis of SSCs important to safety are reflected in the site characteristics, design parameters, or terms and conditions of the early site permit. B. Standard Design Certification Reviews DC applications do not contain general descriptions of site characteristics because this information is site-specific and will be addressed by the COL applicant. Pursuant to 10 CFR 52.47(a)(1), a DC applicant must provide site parameters postulated for the design. However, the identification of population distribution is not applicable for this area of review. C. Combined License Reviews: For a COL application
