nstruction on aquatic resources. ` ESRP 5.2.1. Obtain a list of hydrological alterations that will take place along the transmission corridor and that could potentially impact the aquatic ecosystem. ` ESRP 5.10. Provide a list of recommended measures and controls to limit adverse impacts of the transmission system on the aquatic system and list applicant commitments to limit these impacts. ` ESRP 6.5.2. Provide a list of preoperational monitoring programs to obtain baseline data for subsequent operational monitoring programs. ` ESRP 9.4.3. Provide advice when alternative transmission system maintenance may be needed and assist in determining appropriate alternatives. ` ESRP 10.1. Provide a list of unavoidable adverse impacts of transmission system maintenance. 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 data or information will be needed only when aquatic habitats that may be affected by the operation or maintenance of the transmission system have been identified by the reviewer for ESRP 2.4.2: ` a description of and map showing any “important” aquatic species or habitats in the vicinity of proposed transmission facilities (from ESRP Section 2.4.2, and from the applicant on request) ` physical, chemical, and biological factors known to influence distribution and abundance of aquatic life in the identified unique habitats (from the general literature) ` endangered and threatened species that are known or expected to be present, together with any specific habitat requirements or community interrelationships (from the ESRP for EIS Section 2.4.2) ` maintenance practices that are anticipated to adversely affect aquatic biota (from the environmental report [ER] and the general literature) ` licensee commitments on maintenance practices.
