50-388 Gentlemen:

At the Special Prehearing Conference held on January 29-31, 1979, I agreed to keep the Board and the parties advised of significant changes in estimated dates for issuance of certain Staff documents.

(Tr. at 368.)

I have been informed that the Staff's current estimated dates for issuance of the Final Environmental Statement (FES), Safety Evaluation Report (SER) and SER Supplement are early December 1980, early February 1981 and late lay 1981, respectively.

Thus the predicted time span between issuance of the FES and issuance of the SER continues to grow shorter. It is now about two months rather than seven months as was predicted when the Board issued its Discovery Order II on October 30, 1979.

Based on the longer time span the Board currently plans to wait until after completion of the environmental phase of the hearing to

'stablish a schedule for discovery on safety contentions.

It now appears that the Board's current plan for scheduling discovery on safety contentions,~&hen coupled with the time involved should intervenors Sile additional contentions based on "new information" in the FES as allowed by the Board's Order of June 24, 1980, could result in unnecessary delay in both the start of the safety phase of the hearing and the completion of the proceeding.
