. F-102. A number of studies have been done relating to the risk associated with placing a number of reactors within a certain geographic area. Tr. 2197-99 (Hulman, Branagan).
Multiple reactor siting at a given site is not considered by the Staff to raise a safety concern, at least within the numb 2rs studied.
(Tr. 2199-2200 (Hulman)).
F-103. The distances from a nuclear plant to population centers are l
l important factors affecting public risks. The accident risk of early fatality to people living at distances of 15 miles or more from a nuclear plant is exceedingly small.
(Levine testimony, ff. Tr.1930, at 23).
F-104. Rockford is located 15 miles from the Byron Station and 60 miles or more from Zion Station, the next nearest plant to Rockford.
DeKalb and Sycamore are about 30 miles from the Byron Station, and 40 miles or inore from the Dresden and LaSalle plants, which are about equally distant from the communities.
(Levine testimony, ff. Tr.1930, at 23).
F-105. The cumulative risk to DeKalb-Sycamore and Rockford area,
residents from accidents at the Byron Station and other plants in northern Illinois is negligible.
(Levine testimony, ff. Tr.1930, at 3).
F-106. Mr. Levine testified that there is "almost no coupling of
~
early fatalities between the various sites" in the Byron vicinity.
As to
~
latent fatalities, the probability is very small whether there is one reactor or ten r'eactors in the area.
(Tr. 2019-20 (Levine)).
