UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD Before Administrative Judges:

Ronald M. Spritzer, Chairman Dr. Gary S. Arnold Dr. Thomas J. Hirons In the Matter of: Docket No. 50-255-LA-2 ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS, INC. ASLBP No. 15-939-04-LA-BD01 (Palisades Nuclear Plant) June 26, 2015 ORDER (Identifying Hearing Procedures and Scheduling Conference Call)

In accordance with 10 C.F.R. § 2.310(a), and in the absence of a request for a different hearing procedure, the Board has determined that the simplified hearing procedures of Subpart L of 10 C.F.R. Part 2 will govern this proceeding.

To develop a scheduling order for the remainder of this proceeding in accordance with 10 C.F.R. § 2.332, the Board will hold a conference call on Wednesday, July 8, 2015, at 2 p.m.

EDT. Before the conference call, the parties should confer to develop a proposed schedule with suggested dates for:

(i) Disclosures required by 10 C.F.R. § 2.336 and any supplementation of those disclosures; (ii) Filing new or amended contentions; (iii) Filing motions for summary disposition; (iv) Filing written direct testimony and rebuttal testimony; and (v) An evidentiary hearing.

The parties should use the model milestones in Appendix B to 10 C.F.R. Part 2 that apply to hearings conducted under Subpart L as a starting point for discussion. The proposed

schedule should also take into account the applicable requirements of 10 C.F.R. §§ 2.336 and 2.1203, and the objectives listed in 10 C.F.R. § 2.329(b). If the parties are able to agree upon a proposed schedule, it should be submitted to the Board no later than 5 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, July 7, 2015. In the event that the parties are unable to agree, any party may file its own proposed schedule by the same date and time.

We also request that, before the conference call, the NRC Staff provide the Board and the parties with its best current estimate of the timeline of the Staffs safety review, any review by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards, and any other Staff actions that may affect the scheduling of this proceeding.

The Boards law clerk will provide the parties with the phone number and passcode for the conference call. Members of the public or media who wish to listen to the call may do so, and should contact Nicole Pepperl at (301) 415-6626 for the listen-in number.

It is so ORDERED.
