REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary—Appendix B Secondary—Appendix B I. AREAS OF REVIEW This environmental standard review plan (ESRP) directs the staff’s identification and description of community characteristics in the region(a) of the site, including the site vicinity and other areas likely to be affected by the construction, maintenance, or operation of the proposed plant and related facilities. The review will provide input to other reviews dealing with evaluation of plant construction and operating impacts on the identified communities. The scope of the review directed by this plan will be guided by the magnitude and nature of the expected impacts of construction, maintenance, or operation of the proposed project and by those site-specific community characteristics that can be expected to be affected by these impacts. These characteristics should be described in sufficient detail to permit a subsequent staff assessment and evaluation of the specific impacts.
