NUREG-1555 5.4.1-10 October 1999 ` transit times and dilution factors at each appropriate receptor location (to be verified in consulta- tion with the reviewer for ESRP 2.3.1) ` population distribution data for 5 years following the time of the license action being considered (to be verified by the reviewer for ESRP 2.5.1) ` present annual milk, meat, and vegetable production (to be verified in consultation with the reviewers for ESRP 2.2). (3) As a final step in the evaluation process, consult with the reviewer of ESRP 5.4.2 to ensure that suffi- cient data have been provided to permit calculation of individual and population dose commitments. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS Input to the EIS should describe the following: (1) the typical pathways by which radioactive materials can be transported from the plant to receptors in unrestricted areas, (2) the pathways identified as important for the proposed project and a brief discussion of the staff’s analysis to determine these pathways, (3) the nearest receptors identified by the reviewer, and (4) a brief discussion of food production and processing in the area. Use of Figures 5.4.1-1 and 5.4.1-2 is recommended. V. IMPLEMENTATION The method described herein will be used by the staff in evaluating conformance with the Commission’s regulations, except in those cases in which the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative for complying with specified portions of the regulations.
