in 16 km (10 mi). On a map of suitable scale that identifies places of significant population grouping, such as cities and towns within a 16-km (10-mi) radius, concentric circles should be drawn (with the reactor at the center point) at distances of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16 km. The circles should be divided into 22½q sectors with each sector centered on one of the 16 compass points (with reference to true north; e.g., north-northeast, northeast, etc.). A table appropriately keyed to the map should provide the current residential and transient populations within each area of the map formed by the concentric circles and radial lines. The same table or separate tables should provide the projected resident and transient populations within each area for (1) the expected first year of station operation and (2) for 10-year increments reaching 40 years from the latest decennial census. The tables should provide population totals for each sector and concentric ring and a total for the 0- to 16-km (0- to 10-mi) enclosed population. The basis for population projections should be described (from the ER, latest decennial census, other local/regional demographic sources). ` Population Between 16 and 80 km (10 and 50 mi). A map of suitable scale and appropriately keyed tables should be used in the same manner as described above to present the population and its distribution at 20-km intervals between the 16- and 80-km (10- and 50-mi) radii from the reactor (from the ER, the latest decennial census, other local/regional demographic sources). ` Demographic Characteristics of the 0- to 80-km (0- to 50-mi) Enclosed Population. This should include specific reporting of population characteristics and projections for the emergency planning zone defined as the area within a 16-km (10-mi) radius of the plant. Demographic characteristics and projections should also be shown for the “low-population zone” or “exclusion area” populations. Demographic characteristics should include age
