sufficient detail to allow for the evaluation of the terrestrial monitoring programs. 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. Refer to Table 2.4.1-1 (see p. 2.4.1-7) for a listing of species and habitat criteria for designation of “important” species and resources. The following data or information should be obtained: October 1999 2.4.1-3 NUREG-1555 ` a map that identifies “important” terrestrial habitats on and in the vicinity of the site ` a description and map of the area occupied by each natural and man-made habitat type (from the environmental report [ER]) ` U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic maps of the site (7½ min. scale, when available) (from the general literature) ` list and description of “important” species and their spatial and temporal distributions on and in the vicinity of the site, including, as appropriate, their relative abundance, critical habitat, and their life histories—critical life stages, biologically significant activities, seasonal habitat requirements and population fluctuations, food chain, and other interspecific relationships (from the ER and consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies) ` list of species that are of concern as disease vectors or pests. Detailed field surveys of such species are not needed (from the ER and consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies). ` a qualitative estimate of the importance of habitat of threatened, endangered, and other “important” species on and in the vicinity of the site relative to the habitat of such species throughout their entire range (from the ER and consultation with Federal, State, regional, local, and affected Native American tribal agencies) ` locations of travel
