UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Before the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board In the Matter of THE TOLEDO EDISON COMPANY and Docket Nos. 50-346A THE CLEVELAND ELECTRIC ILLUMINATING :
50-500A COMPANY 50-501A (Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Units 1, 2 and 3)
THE CLEVELAND ELECTRIC ILLUMINATING :
Docket Nos. 50-440A COMPANY, ET AL 50-441A (Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2)
LETTER TO SUPPLEMENT HEARING MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO TRIAL MEMORANDUM OF SQUIRE, SANDERS & DEMPSEY AT EVIDENTIARY HEARING BEFORE SPECIAL BOARD ON DISQUALIFICATION At the hearing before the Licensing Board on February 2,1976, the City was requested to address a portion of its Hearing Memorandum to the question of the Licensing Board's jurisdiction over the conduct of attorneys appearing before it.
l The City's Hearing Memorandum,Section V, addressed that question by reference to the Commission's Rules of Practice and Federal case law, as at i
the time there did not appear to be any Nuclear Regulatory Commission precedents directly on point.
l l
The City would respectfully submit to the Licensing Board two decisions l
from the Appeal Board that recently came to its attention.
The Appeal Board in Northern Indiana Public Service Company, ALAB-204, RAI-74-5, page 835, makes it quite clear that the ABA Code of Professional Responsibility is applicable to proceedings before the Commission.
Also of interest is the Appeals Board's decision in Louisiana Power &
Light Company, ALAB-121, RAI-73-5, page 319, in which the Appeal Board sua sponte struck a brief filed by the would-be intervenor because it contained insulting references to the Licensing Board chairman. The Appeal Board noted that attorneys practicing before the Commission "are under an express mandate to conform to the standards of conductrespdredin the-zzamrss d.the Umted States". Louisiana Power, supra, at 319.
These two Board decisions reinforce the City's contention that the conduct of an attorney before the Licensing Board is identical with that of an attorney practicing before the Federal Courts. Since the Federal Court would consider the matters raised by the City, to wit, the disqualification of an attorney from appearing on behalf of a party because of a conflict of interest, it follows that the Licensing Board must also consider the matter.
Respectfully submitted, c..
