governmental entities affected by the 10-mile EPZ. NUREG-0396 provides additional guidance relating to the definition of the EPZs. 11. Section IV of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50, through 10 CFR 52.79(a)(21) and 10 CFR 50.34, requires that an application for an OL or COL provide an analysis of the time required to evacuate various sectors and distances within the plume exposure pathway EPZ; i.e., an ETE. The NRC regulations do not specify a limit for such estimated evacuation times. An ETE can identify physical characteristics unique to the proposed site that could pose a significant impediment to the development of emergency plans. An ETE provides an analysis of the time required to evacuate and for taking other protective actions for various sectors and distances within the plume exposure EPZ. This information can be used by decision makers in responding to an actual emergency to aid in deciding what protective actions to implement. Appendix 4 to NUREG- 0654/FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, and Supplement 2 to NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, provide guidance relating to performing an ETE analysis. NUREG/CR-6863 provides additional information on ETEs. 12. Section VI of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50 requires an emergency response data system (ERDS). The ERDS is a direct near real-time electronic data link between a licensee’s onsite computer system and the NRC Operations Center, and provides for the automated transmission of a limited data set of selected parameters from a licensee’s installed onsite computer system in the event of an emergency. NUREG-1394 provides the minimum standards and acceptable methods that may be used to implement and comply with the ERDS requirements. [The ERDS requirements will be replaced by those associated with its successor system, currently expected in 2007.] 13. Insofar as emergency planning and preparedness requirements are concerned, 10 CFR 50.47(d) provides that a license authorizing fuel loading and/or low-power testing and training (up to
