ASSISTA.iVT DEPUTY PUBLIC S\nfoCATE DATED: March 7, 1979

STATE OF NEW JERSEY) AFFIDAVIT OF KEITH A. O?\SDORFF,

) SS. COUNSEL FOR INTERVE:\OR 'S COUNTY OF MERCER ) ALFRED & ELfa\i\JOR COLRLA:\l KEITII A. ONSOORFF, of full age, being duly sworn according to la\.;, deposes and says:

1. On January 2, 1979, I began my employment with the Ne\.; Jersey Department of the Public Advocate, Division of Public Interest Advocacy as an .Assistant Deputy Public Advocate.

2. Since starting this employment, I have been given primary responsibility for several major matters presently in litigation or being prepared for adjudicatory proceedings before both State and federal adrninist:::-ative agencies.

3. Tilese matters include .American Dredging Company v. State of New Jersey, Department of Environmental Protection, Docket No. 372-78, New JeTsey Superior Court, Appellate Division participation as amicus curiae ll1 appeal challenging constitutionality of New Jersey Wetlands Act as applied to appellant's property; Morris County Fair Housing Council, et al. v. Boonton Township, et al., Docket No. L-6001-78 P.W., New Jersey Superior Court, Law Division, representation of plaintiffs in trial court action to have the zoning ordinances of twenty-seven municipalities declared unconstitional for failure to provide least cost housing opportunities; In re Application of Jersey Central Power & Light Co., etc., Docket No. 771-60, New Jersey Department of Energy, Board of ~ublic Utilities, Docket No. 771-60, represen-tation of public in proceeding before B.P.U. to have its zoning override approval for constn1ction of transmission lines reconsidered.

4. IUso, on FebTUary 6, 1979, I assLUTied the primary responsibility for representing Intervenors, Alfred and Eleanor Coleman, in the within proceeding before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to contest the application

by Public Service Electric and Gas Company for an amendment of its i\TRC license to operate the Salem One \uclear Generating Station with gTeatly expanded on-site storage of spent radioactive fuel.

5. On Febniary 28, 1979 Intervenors were served with the licensee's motion for Slil11l11ary disposition of the Colemans' contentions Two, Six, Nine and Thirteen. This motion, supported by multiple, voluminous affidavits, undoubtedly required preparation over an extended period of time. Licensee has had over eight months to devote to this task, since these contentions were admitted at the initial ASIB conference held in May 6, 1978.

6. Pursuant to rule 10 C.F.R. §2.749 Colemans' response presently should be filed no later than March 19, 1979. This very short deadline does not in my opinion afford the Colemans a fair and reasonable amount of time to adequately prepare the necessary detailed and verified response to licensee's motion.

7. Therefore, the Colernans hereby request an extension of time to file their response to the Public Service Motion for Summary Disposition until ancl including April 19, 1979.

8. Counsel for licensee, Mr. Fryling stated to me during a phone conversation on March 6, 1979 that he would neither consent nor object to a 15 day extension on Intenrenor's deadline for a response to the within motion.
