Chapter Provides Information on EGC ESP Site Location, On-Site
CHAPTER 2 Site Characteristics This chapter provides information on the EGC ESP Site location, on-site activities and controls, present and projected population distribution, meteorological, hydrological, geological, and seismological characteristics. The purpose of presenting this information is to provide the bases for demonstrating the adequacy of the site characteristics from a site safety viewpoint and to provide input to support environmental characterization. The influence of the EGC ESP site characteristics on the design and operation of a possible future nuclear power facility will be assessed at the construction and operating license (COL) stage pursuant to 10 CFR 52 Subpart C. REV2 2-1 CHAPTER 2 - SITE CHARACTERISTICS SITE SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT FOR EGC EARLY SITE PERMIT SECTION 2.1 – GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY 2.1 Geography and Demography 2.1.1 Site Location and Description 2.1.1.1 Specification of Location The EGC ESP Facility will be co-located on the property of the existing CPS Facility and its associated 4,895 ac man-made cooling reservoir (Clinton Lake) (CPS, 2002). The EGC ESP Facility will be located approximately 700 ft south of the existing CPS Facility. The CPS Facility lies within Zone 16 of the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates. The exact UTM coordinates for the EGC ESP Facility will depend upon the specific reactor technology selected for deployment and will be finalized at COL. As shown on Figures 1.2-1 and 2.1-1 there is a complex transportation system surrounding the EGC ESP Site. The nearest major highways are Illinois State Routes 54, 10, and 48, all of which cross the CPS Facility property.

The Greater Chicago Region: a Logistics Epicenter
the greater chicago region By Mike Kirchhoff, CEcD, and Jody Peacock Fully one third of rail and truck traf- fic – and half the nation’s container traffic – pass through the Chicago region. While these statistics are impres- sive, Chicago’s infrastructure is being pushed to its limit. And projections point to more challenges ahead. In 2001 the Chicago Area Transportation Study (the Chicago region’s transporta- tion planning agency) projected 600 more daily trains in the region within 20 years (2,400 trains/year), and pro- jected an increase in Intermodal lifts of more than 250 percent in the same time period. Market impacts such as these are projected to demand more than 7,000 additional acres of land for Intermodal facilities.

The Interstate Highway System Turns 60
The Interstate Highway System turns 60: Challenges to Its Ability to Continue to Save Lives, Time and Money JUNE 27, 2016 202-466-6706 tripnet.org Founded in 1971, TRIP ® of Washington, DC, is a nonprofit organization that researches, evaluates and distributes economic and technical data on surface transportation issues. TRIP is sponsored by insurance companies, equipment manufacturers, distributors and suppliers; businesses involved in highway and transit engineering and construction; labor unions; and organizations concerned with efficient and safe surface transportation. Executive Summary Sixty years ago the nation embarked on its greatest public works project, the construction of the Interstate Highway System. President Dwight D. Eisenhower provided strong support for the building of an Interstate Highway System that would improve traffic safety, reduce travel times and improve the nation’s economic productivity. Serving as the most critical transportation link in the nation’s economy, the Interstate Highway System has significantly improved the lives of U.S. residents and visitors. Throughout the nation, the Interstate system allows for high levels of mobility by greatly reducing travel times and providing a significantly higher level of traffic safety than other routes. But 60 years after President Eisenhower articulated a vision for the nation’s transportation system, the U. S. again faces a challenge in modernizing its aging and increasingly congested Interstate highway system. If Americans are to continue to enjoy their current level of personal and commercial mobility on Interstate highways and bridges, the nation will need to make a commitment to identifying a long-term funding source to support a well-maintained Interstate Highway System able to meet the nation’s need for additional mobility.
