can evaluate any potential radiological impacts to biota other than man. 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 should be obtained: ` information related to exposure pathways (from ESRP 5.4.1), including - receptor locations - population distribution - meteorological dispersion data - hydrological dilution data. ` gaseous and liquid source term data (from the ESRP for environmental impact statement [EIS] 3.5) ` exposure rates associated with onsite out-of-plant storage of solid waste ` applicant calculated dose data (from the ER) ` occupational radiation dose estimates (from the ER) ` natural radiation doses that are generally applicable to the site (from the general literature) (NCRP 1987). October 1999 5.4.2-3 NUREG-1555 II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Acceptance criteria for the analysis and evaluation of doses resulting from radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents released during normal operations are based on relevant requirements of the following: ` 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, with respect to determination of doses ` 10 CFR 50.34a with respect to determination of estimated dose ` 10 CFR 20.1301(d) with respect to doses to members of the public as a result of exposures to discharges of radioactive material, radon, and direct radiation from a site. Regulatory positions and specific criteria necessary to meet the regulations as identified above are as follows: ` Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1, Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routing Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with CFR 50, Appendix I (NRC 1976), with respect to determination of doses to the public ` NUREG-0543, Methods for Demonstrating LWR Compliance with the EPA Uranium Fuel Cycle Standard (NRC 1980), with respect to determination of compliance with
