is clearly shown. The reviewer should apply engineering judgment to confirm that there is no obvious way in which transportation routes that traverse the exclusion area can interfere with normal plant operations. 2. Site Area Map: The reviewer should cross-check the exclusion area distances with distances used in the accident analyses, SAR Chapter 15. The reviewer should scale the map provided to check distances specified in the SAR and to determine the distance-direction relationships to exclusion area boundaries, roads, railroads, waterways, and other significant features of the area. If applicable, at the OL stage, the staff will evaluate the location and orientation of plant structures and effluent release points with respect to the exclusion area and plant property boundaries, transportation routes, and political subdivisions to identify any changes since the CP review. Where changes have occurred, new analyses may be required to ensure that these changes do not affect the findings reached during the CP review. 3. Site Visits: For an ESP, CP, or COL review, a visit to the site under review permits a better understanding of the physical characteristics of the site and its relationship to the surrounding area. It permits the reviewer to gather information, independent of that supplied in the SAR. Site visits should be made after initial review of the site information in the SAR has been completed and the reviewer has become generally familiar with the site and surrounding areas. During the site visit, the reviewer will discuss the preliminary review findings with the applicant and obtain information from visits to local offices of Federal, State, and county governments, industries, military facilities, and other entities. Specific visits to these offices should be made on the basis of the particular site characteristics and is left to the judgment of the individual reviewer. Information should encompass, whenever possible, that needed to support the review of SRP
