I;RC STAFF BEQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF TI.'.1E On F :bruacy 23, 1979, th< Atomic Safetf and I,iorn.ing Appe. l l'.u:ird (Appeal C<..rd) isaued a ':tmorandum and O !cr in the captinned nro-cc -ding, in vhich the Staff and VEPCO were order"d to prepare te:4timony on the subj.ects of turbine m',siles and pun p house sett! m 2nt veith respect to ciorth Anna Unita 1 and 2. The Appeal 130ard instructed VEPCO and th c Staff to file their prepared testimony by April 6,1979, but indicated that if thu period proved to be insufficient, * :at the two partie s were free to wek an e>.t+. n sion of time. :.k morandum and Order at 12, n.11.
The Staff has given s"rious consi<ter ition to the requi ements :n t forth in the :.temorandum and Order, and pursuant to the sug;estion cont iined on page 12 of the.iemorandum and Crder, met vith VEPCO on ' tarch 8,1979 for the purpose of determining responsibility for addresaing the tarious subjects specified in the f icmorandurc, and Order. D e,pite the fact that the Staff is giving consu rable priority to the oreparation of testimony for the hc aring, it ha; deto. i n e r: that it couh: not nrup :: e a corr. ore-7 9 0 4 0 9 0 3 3G, hensivet. ti:c.ony padag e unich would be fully
'sno:',:. e to the require-rc.ents 3tt furth in the ' L > ;r.indum :nd CrJer by April 6,1979 In adunien, the Staff proposes to review VEPCO draft responses to certe:in Appeal m ard questions prior to the sub mittal cf its own testimcny, fur the,mpose of determining whether it should supplement VEPCO's testimony en those subjec ts. The Staff believes that by reviewing VEPCO's proposed testimony on those subjects for which the Staff does not int 2nd to take lead responsi-bility, it can offer whatever comments it deems necescary as ptrt ef its initial testimony submittal, theruoy minimizing the need to file rebuttal t es timo ny.
Based on VEPCO's commitment to deliver draft responses to certain Appeal Board questions to the Staff by March 30, 1979, and on our own best estimates as to the time the Staff needs for preparation of its testimony and for review of VEPCO's draft testimony, the Staff would not be able to complete its response to the Memorandum and Order until April 27, 1979. Accordingly, the Staff requests the Appeal Board to grant a2e Staff a three-week extension of time for filing its testimony until April 27, 1979. Counsel for VEPCO has indicated to the undersigned that it has no objection to the request for extension of time.
