es on public and worker nonradiological health. The description should include the following: • public health risks from building activities (e.g., air pollution from dust and vehicle emissions) • occupational health risks to workers and onsite personnel from activities such as building, maintenance, testing, excavation and modifications • estimate of the total occupational injuries and illnesses for building activities anticipated for the project, including information on interpretation of the statistical results • description of safety standards, practices, and mitigation procedures that will be used to reduce public and occupational health risks 4.8.2 Noise The applicant should describe noise impacts associated with building activities, including the following: • applicable Federal, State, and local regulations and/or ordinances governing noise from building activities • sources of noise at the site, such as heavy equipment operation • peak noise level measurements and attenuation with distance for the sources of noise at the site • description of the levels of noise at the closest noise-sensitive receptors, including a description of any noise-abatement models 11 Guidance in COL-ISG-026 will be superseded by the next revision of NUREG-1555. DG-4026, Page 75 • any BMPs required or planned for noise abatement 4.8.3 Transportation of Construction Materials and Personnel to and from the Proposed Site The applicant should provide estimates of the potential health impacts from nonradiological traffic-related accidents related to transporting construction materials and workers to and from the proposed site. Nonradiological impacts refer to the accidents, injuries, and fatalities estimated to occur from traffic accidents during movement of construction materials and personnel to and from the proposed site during building. Where possible, the impacts should be estimated using information specific to the proposed site (e.g., by using county-specific
