KIMTOIl'I'II}NBRI.[ Impy CITIZENS AGAINST NUCLEAR DANGERS'OTION FOR BOARD RULING ON REVISION OF PRELIMINARY TIMETABLE The citizens of the Berwlck area," since the Three Mile Island
- disaster, are.]ustifiably alarmed over the possible consequences of a similar type accident occurring at the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company's Berwick atomic power plant sometime in the future.
The problems of TMI willwot go away.
It can never be business-as-usual again for the atomic industry anywhere in the Susquehanna Valley.
Therefore, a meaningful updating of the schedule for this NRC Docket case is de finitely now ln order.
"Thereas, in the first place, the interveners were never presented, the preliminary timetable, in writing or otherwise, for their imput or concurrence, by the,.other parties prior to its adoption,'rThereas, some of the affected parties do not appear to be responding to the present timetable 'anyway;
- Whereas, the United States Congress is p'resently considering a
six months, or possibly longer, moratorium on the licensing of commercial reactors by the NRC, ln the aftermath of TMI;
- Whereas, reacting to this threat, of congressional
- action, the NRC, on May 21, 1979, declared an informal 90 day suspension on some licensing proceedings because of the Three Mlle island. disaster;
Ag t
l~
, ';thereas, on May 21,
- 1979, the.NRC Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Harold M. Denton, outlined a staff reorganization that will delay so-called routine casework and the issuance of operating licenses;.
and will almost,.totally stop the processing of other license applications for.several months;
- Whereas, during th1s period of suspended animation, the NRC Lesson Learned Task Force will "recommend changes to licensing requirements and the licensing process for nuclear power plants based on the lessons learned."
This Task Force will, in due cour se, notify the licensing boards and, the intervening partiep of "all new information developed,,"
from the1r study. of TME, "which may be relevant and material 'to any of the issues being ad)udicated in presently pending cases."
$lhereas, on June lg, 1979, the NRC Division of Pro)ect Management at Bethesda, Md. conferred with the Applicants, and all other utilities having operating license applications, to establish "priorities for the review of those applications,"
presumably, among other things, to, I
revise their timetab3.es in the aftermath of TMI, and the NRC response to congressional pressure and. public reaction; Therefore, it would be prudent and. reasonable for the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board to promugate an order revising the preliminary timetable in the Berwick case to coincide with TMl developments and the forthcoming NRC Task Force recommendations.
