Characterize the ecological community, defining the community structure with special attention to stability or fluctuations; and 3.

Obtain background data on the radioactivity in important indicator organisms.

d.

Develop a surveillance and monitoring program of significant parameters based upon the ecological study which will document the impact of the plant operations upon the ecology of the site and environs. The ecological surveillance and monitoring program actions to be developed should serve to identify actual effects on the environment from plant operations.

3.

This permit is subject to the limitation that a license authorizing operating of the facility will not be issued by the Commission unless (a) the applicant submits to the Commission, by filing an application for an operating license or by amendment to the application for a license to construct and operate the facility, a complete final safety analysis report, portions of which may be submitted and evaluated from time to time; (b) the Commission finds that the final design provides reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by the operation of the facility in accordance with procedures approved by'it in connection with the issuance of said license; and (c) the applicant submitsproof of financial protection and the execution of an indemnity agreement as required by Section 170 of the Act.
