(a) A description and analysis of alternative sites, and a thorough discussion of the environmental impacts of each; and

(b) A hydraulic analysis prepared by a licensed professional engineer that describes anticipated effects of the project on stream hydraulics, including potential increases in base flood elevation, changes in stream velocity, and the potential for redirection of the normal flow of the affected stream; and

(c) A biological resource inventory and analysis prepared by a qualified professional biologist that describes the anticipated effects of the project on fish and wildlife resources; and

(d) A cultural resources assessment if there are known or suspected cultural, archaeological or historic resources in the vicinity of the site; and

(e) For hydropower facilities, the proposed location and design of powerhouses, penstocks, accessory structures and access and service roads; and

(f) Proposed provisions for accommodating public access to and along the affected shoreline, as well as any proposed on-site recreational features; and

(g) A description of any plans to remove vegetation and/or revegetate the site following construction; and a proposed mitigation plan that describes, in detail, provisions for protecting in-stream resources during construction and operation, and measures to compensate for impacts that cannot be avoided; and

(h) A description of sites proposed for the depositing of debris, overburden, and other waste materials generated during construction; and

(i) Long-term management plans which describe, in sufficient detail, provision for protection of in-stream resources during construction and operation. The plan shall include means for monitoring its success.
