23 M-F REPORTING, INC. (518) 478-7220

(KOLAKOWSKI CROSS ENTERGY) 2736 1 sub-paragraph 4.

2 Q. So, is it still your understanding of the 3 prohibition in section 0807 that section 1 prohibits the 4 discharge of all radiological materials?

5 A. No. It appears that it doesn't, on further read, 6 but -- and that's why I included the general prohibition 7 of I think it was 0501 when I took the stand.

8 Q. So, is it your testimony now that you're changing 9 your testimony with respect to whether 17-0807(1) 10 applies to Entergy's releases?

11 A. It doesn't appear to be the best fit for the 12 statement I made, correct.

13 Q. So, your understanding -- is it your 14 understanding that discharge of radiological, chemical, 15 or biological warfare agents, that means that the 16 radiological qualifies as a warfare agent?

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. And that's not what Entergy has released in this 19 case, right?

20 A. Correct.

21 Q. No radiological warfare agents?

22 A. Not that I'm aware of.

23 Q. Now, the second prohibition is 17-0807(1) is the

(KOLAKOWSKI CROSS ENTERGY) 2737 1 prohibition on the discharge of high-level radioactive 2 waste as such terms are defined by the act.

3 Is it your position that the materials that have 4 leaked in this case are high-level radioactive waste, as 5 those terms are defined by the act?

6 A. No.

7 JUDGE VILLA: Short break. So let's say 8 come back at 10 minutes after 10.

9 (Recess taken.)

10 JUDGE VILLA: Back on.

11 Mr. Trach, whenever you are ready.

12 MR. TRACH: Thank you, Your Honor.

13 EXAMINATION 14 BY MR. TRACH:

15 Q. Mr. Kolakowski, I would like to talk to you for a 16 bit about ECL Section 17-0807 4. We discussed your 17 current position with regard to the applicability of 18 section 1 prior to the break, and I believe you 19 testified that you still believe that section 4 applies 20 to the discharges in this case, correct?

21 A. Yes, I believe so.

22 Q. And if I am reading it correctly, actually, you 23 wouldn't have a copy of 17-0807 but it's mentioned in
