NRC STAFFS UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR A TWO-DAY EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE ITS ANSWER TO NECS BRIEF ON NEC CONTENTION 4 Pursuant to 10 C.F.R. § 2.323(a), the NRC Staff (Staff) hereby requests a two-day extension of time in which to file its Answer to New England Coalitions [NECs] Brief on the Legal Scope of [NEC] Contention 4 (NECs Brief), filed by NEC on March 21, 2006. In support of this request, the Staff states as follows:
1.
NEC filed its Brief on March 21, 2006, setting forth its views on the legal standard at issue in NEC Contention 4,1 as required by the Licensing Board in its Order (Supplemental Schedule) dated March 14, 2006, as modified by the Boards Order (Granting Motion for Enlargement of Time Related to NEC Contention 4... ), dated March 23, 2006.
2.
In accordance with the Licensing Boards Orders, the Staffs Answer to NECs Brief is due to be filed by March 28, 2006. The Staff is currently preparing its Answer to NECs Brief, but due to the press of other matters, has found that it will require a limited extension of time of two days, until March 30, 2006, in which to complete and file its Answer.
3.
Counsel for the Staff has spoken with Counsel for the Licensee and NECs representative (Mr. Shadis) concerning this request. Counsel for the Licensee does not oppose the Staffs request; NECs representative does not oppose this request, with the understanding that the date for NECs filing of its reply to the Staffs Answer is also extended by two days, i.e.,
until April 6, 2006.
4.
The Staff submits that a grant of the instant request will not result in adverse impact to any party and will not unduly delay the conclusion of this proceeding.
Accordingly, the Staff respectfully requests a two-day extension of time, until March 30, 2006, in which to file its Answer to NECs Brief on the legal standard at issue in NEC Contention 4.
Respectfully submitted,
