REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary—Appendix B Secondary—Appendix B I. AREAS OF REVIEW This environmental standard review plan (ESRP) directs the staff’s review, analysis, and evaluation of the applicant’s design of radioactive waste management and effluent control systems. The scope of the review should include (1) a determination of the expected quantity of radioactive materials released annually in liquid and gaseous effluents (source terms) resulting from normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences and (2) a determination of the capability of the proposed radioactive waste management systems to control and maintain such releases of radioactive materials in effluents to “as low as reasonably achievable” (ALARA) levels in accordance with the requirement of 10 CFR 50.34a. Review Interfaces The reviewer for this ESRP should obtain input from and provide input to reviewers for the following ESRPs, as indicated: ` ESRP 2.7. Provide descriptions of potential release points for radioactive effluents for use in atmospheric transport and diffusion calculations. ` ESRP 3.3.1. Obtain plant water-use data. • ESRP 5.4. Provide tables listing the calculated annual releases of radioactive material in liquid and gaseous effluents and a statement that the radioactive waste management and effluent control systems as proposed or as modified have the capability to control and maintain releases of NUREG-1555 3.5-2 October 1999 radioactive materials in effluents to meet the design objectives of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, and the requirements of 10 CFR 50.34a. Note: For applications for early site permits, the reviewer of ESRP 3.5 should provide the reviewer of ESRP 5.4 with tables listing the estimated annual releases of radioactive materials in liquid and gaseous effluents. ` ESRP 5.4.2. Obtain the calculated maximum individual and population doses for comparison with the design objective guidelines of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I. ` ESRP 5.5.2. Provide a list of
