AFFIDAVIT'OF DR. PHILLIP M. WEITZMAN My name is Phillip M. Weitzman. A statement of my professional qualifications is attached to this affidavit. ;
I have examined, in relevant part, the following documents submitted by the Virginia Electric and Power Company (VEPCO) in the above-captiened proceeding:
- 1. Summary of Proposed Modifications to t'he Spent Fuel Storage Pool Associated with Increasing Storage Capacity for North Anna Power Station Units 1 and 2, Virginia Electric and Power Company (revision 1, May 1979) (Hereinaf ter cited as Summary; subsequent paragraph citations. refer to this document).
- 2. Affidavit of H. Stephen McKay (May 11, 1979)
- 3. Affidavit of Dr. Morris Brehmer.(May'll, 1979)
- 4. Affidavit of Robert W. Calder (May 11, 1979) f
e l
79///:Zo/*f3 -
_2 .
., 4. Environmental Impa t Appraisal of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Relative to a Proposed Increase in Storage Capacity of the Spent Fuel Pool, North Anna Power Station, Units 1 and 2 (April 2, 1979).
- 3. VEPCO'S STATEMENT OF~ MATERIAL FACTS AS TO WH'ICH THERE IS NO GENUINE ISSUE TO BE HEARD (May 11, 1979)
- 6. VEPCO'S ANSWERS TO POTOMAC ALLIANCE INTERROGATORIES (June 2 0 ', 1979)
- 7. NRC STAFF SUPPLENENTAL RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORIES FROM CITIZENS' ENERGY FORUM AND POTOMAC ALLIANCE (July 13, 1979).
It is my professional opinion that the facts and analyses contained.in the materials listed above provide an inadequate factual and analytical basis on which to determine whether VEPCO's proposed modification of the spent fuel pool at North Anna Units 1 and 2 is economically more advantageous than any of the three alternative proposals contained in the Potomac Alliance's contention labelled " Alternatives."
A thorough and professional analysis of the relative costs and benefits of the three alternative proposals is ,
impossible because the conclusions presented and the under'-
lying cost estimates are not documented or e.yplained adequately.
Economic and practical constraints which purportedly limit the viability of particular proposals P've in some cases not l
.been systematically demonstrated to be real or insurmountable.
The conclusions reached ar'e based on critical assumptions and 1
's l 1
, methodologies which are not stated, or if stated, are not sufficiently justified.
Specifically, with respect to the proposed con-struction of a new storage pool, VEPCO nas provided a cost
" estimate" of "approximately $25,000,'000." (S4.5) No support for or detailed evaluation of this figure.is provided, nor are comparative design estimadbs provided. This figure therefore amgunts to a bald assertion which lacks sufficient basis to be used in any professional analysis. In addition, the following calculation of $22,007 per fuel assembly is apparentl'y based on the assumption that the new pool would contain 1,136. fuel assemblies. VEPCO ha s provided no cost or engineering data which would permit an unquestioning acceptance of this assumption. It is not clear nor has any analysis been offered to determine whether a new spent fuel pool might not safely hold many times that number of assem-blies and thereby lower substantially the per-assembly cost of this alternative.
With respect to the alternative of physically expanding the existing spent fuel pool, the estimates provided by VEPCO are even less complete and precise than those described above.
(54. 9) . It is impossible to form a professional opinion on the ec'onomic advantages or disadvantages of this alternative based j upon the information provided. -

_ -y_ ___
F As to the alternative of using the currently ~ uncompleted spent fuel a.t North Anna Units 3 and 4, VEPCO has stated simply that this pool will not be completed until it is "too late," and.that it is " difficult" to accelerate the construction schedule. (S 4.10) . In response to interrogatories submitted by the Potomac Alliance, VEPCO stated that it was '
unable to estimate ither the coses of or time required to accelerate the construction of this pool (answer to question
.#6). These statements contain inadequate information on which to render a meaningful opinion as to the economic justification, or lack thereof, for selecting this alternative.
In addition, it should be noted that no substantiation whatever was provided by VEPCO in support of its assertion '
that no additional operating costs will be incurred as a result of the propose ~d modification. (54.1). This assertion should be explored more fully in li'ght of the probable in-cremental costs arising from additional shipments of solid ,
waste, increased' maintenance activities, and increased occupational radiation exposures.
In conclusion, I have reviewed the relevant materials and have concluded tha.t no credible analysis of the three alternatives raised by the Potomac Alliance has been under-taken nor is possible without the presentation and examin-ation of a substantially greater body of facts, assumptions,
