the staff concludes that the following impacts require mitigation. • The impact is adverse, cannot be successfully mitigated, and is of such magnitude that it should be avoided. When impacts of this nature are identified, the reviewer should inform the EPM that an analysis and evaluation of alternative designs or procedures is needed. The reviewer should participate in any such analysis and evaluation of alternatives that would avoid the impact and that could be considered practical. If no such alternatives can be identified, the reviewer should provide this information to the reviewer for ESRP 10.1. A statement similar to the following should be included in the EIS: The staff reviewed the information on the operation of the nonradioactive waste system. Based on this review, the staff concludes that the following impact(s) cannot be mitigated and should be avoided. Alternatives should be considered. V.
