PROPOSED TIME SCHEDULE FOR FURTHER PROCEEDINGS Pacific Gas and Electric Company has indicated that.

it will be ready to proceed on its own application for amendment to its facility operating license.

In the hope of elimknating further problems and delays, Intervenors propose the following schedule for further proceedings:

1.

June, 1980 through September 30, 1980 - PG&E to provide result data, memoranda and relevant docu-ments on all seismic and geologic studies conducted by Woodward-Clyde Consultants or any other consultant for the period of June, 1976 to the present and continuing.

2.

October 1, 1980 - PG&E to present to the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Nuclear Regulatory Commission Staff, and Intervenors a state-ment as to whether it is able to proceed on its 8 0 0 619 0 f(3 9

Amendment to Facility Operating License.

If it is not ready to proceed by the October 1, 1980 date, PG&E's request for amendment to its operating

' license will be denied.

3.

If PG&E states that it is ready to proceed October 1, 1980, PG&E will submit its conclusions on the regional geologic and seismic studies in-cluding 1) regional geologic mapping and age dating, 2) all late quaternary geologic studies, and 3) its fault capability evaluation including full detail of trenching results and conclusions.

4.

October 1, 1980 - Assuming PG&E states that it is ready to proceed, it will submit its conclusions on'the site geologic and seismic studies including

1) the location and determination of capability of faults and site locality including all results and conclusions from on-site trenching, 2) age dating of various geologic formations-and the con-clusions and results from that age dating, 3) all studies of the formation and propagation of faults including the results of those studies, and 4) 4 geophysical analysis and conclusions.

5.

December 1, 1980 - PG&E and the NRC Staff will present written responses to the filed contentions.
