Lawrence G. McDade, Chairman Dr. Michael F. Kennedy Dr. Richard E. Wardwell In the Matter of Docket Nos. 50-247-LR and 50-286-LR ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS, INC. ASLBP No. 07-858-03-LR-BD01 (Indian Point Nuclear Generating Units 2 and 3) September 17, 2014 ORDER (Requesting Briefs on NYS-39/RK-EC-9/CW-EC-10 and CW-SC-4)
On July 8 and July 9, 2012, Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, New York State and Riverkeeper, Inc. moved for leave to file two new contentions based on the on-site storage of nuclear waste at Indian Point.1 In accordance with the Commissions direction in CLI-12-16,2 the Board, on August 9, 2012, ordered the motions held in abeyance.3 On August 26, 2014, in view of its adoption of a revised rule codifying the NRCs generic determinations regarding the pertinent environmental impacts associated with continued storage of spent nuclear fuel, the Commission issued a memorandum and order (CLI-14-08) directing the Atomic Safety and Licensing Boards to reject the contentions pending before them, 1

3 See Licensing Board Order (Holding Waste Confidence Contention in Abeyance) (Aug. 9, 2012)

consistent with this decision, with the exception of the two contentions pending in the Indian Point matter.4 The Commission stated that, to the extent that Contentions CW-SC-4 and NYS-39/RK-EC-9/CW-EC-10 raise issues resolved by the Continued Storage Rule, the Indian Point Board is directed to dismiss them and, if issues raised in those contentions remain unresolved by the Commissions actions, to rule on admissibility of those challenges to license renewal.5 In regard to the latter, we direct that on or before October 1, 2014, Intervenors provide the Board with their views regarding the extent to which Contentions CW-SC-4 and NYS-39/RK-EC-9/CW-EC-10 raise issues that have not been resolved by the Continued Storage Rule.6 The NRC Staff and Entergy shall respond to Intervenors explanation on or before October 15, 2014.
