t Pu-suant to Section 2.72 0 (c) of the Cc aicsion's Rules of Practice (10 C.F.R. 5 2. 730 (c) ), the Departuent of Justice herchy responds to the " Applicant:' objections to tha 3 card's Sixth Prehearing Conference Ordor" (hereinafter " Objections").
The Department is replying to Applicants' pleading as if it were a motion since, although it has been dencminatad " Objections," it seeks affirmative action from the Licensing Board.
Applicants' objections appear to serve three functions.
^
First, they take exception to certain of the Board's rulings (paragraph 1).
Second, they purportedly request a "clarifica-ti~on" of the Board's " reformulation" of the matter in controversy 3

As the Department has previously r

i incorpo2:q.ted by reference, a party necd show only the e::istence i

3_/
inconsistent and the act..vities under the license.
These rulin;s are in ecmolete accord with the Wolf Creek decision 4_/ of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeals Board which o
interpreted the legislative history of the nexus requirement of l
Section 105c to apply "to anticompetitive situations intertwined with or exacerbated by the award of a license to conctruct or i
j j
' operate a nuclear facility" (page 21, emphasis supplied).
the Department urges this Board For the forcgoing reasons, l
to refusa to reverse its prior rulings concerning nexus insofar as Objections.
