ANSWER OF CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY TO PETITION FOR LEAVE TO INTERVENE OF WENDELL H. MARSHALL Consumers Power Company (" Consumers Power") , pur-suant to the Rules of Practice of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, hereby answers the petition to intervene filed by Wendell H. Marshall. For the reasons explained below, while Consumers Power does not at this time oppose the petitioner's intervention, it reserves the right to oppose the participation of petitioner in subsequent proceedings in this docket, contingent on the adequacy of the contention which he is required to submit pursuant to 10 C.F.R. S2.714(b) and this Atomic Safety and Licensing Board's (" Board")

Memorandum and Order Ruling Upon Standing to Intervene

(" Intervention Order") dated July 24, 1980.

I. Introduction In its Intervention Order, at page 3, the Board i

has construed a letter from Mr. Marshall to Mr. A. Schwencer of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Staff (" S ta f f" ) to be a 80 0 8 0 5 Od3/4

.e i

. petition to intervene and has_given Consumers Power the opportunity to respond to that' petition within 10 days

, following service of that order. This answer is Consumers Power's response.

II. Discussion The Board has apparently agreed with the Staff's assumption that Mr. Marshall has incorporated portions of the February 23, 1979 Operating License "Special Prehearing

. Conference Order" into his petition to intervene. Based on ,

this assumption, and the decision of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board in Consumers Power Company (Palisades j Nuclear Plant), LBP-79-20, 10 NRC'lC8 (1979), Consumers h- . Power agrees with the Staff thau Mr. Marshall's residence within'one and one-half miles of the Midland plants and his t

interest ~in the settling of the diesel generator building '

l are adequately alleged facts sufficient to establish the requisite interest for intervention under 10 C.F.R. S2.714.

However, Consumers Power reserves the right to I-oppose the' participation of Mr. Marshall in the subsequent proceeding in this docket, dependent upon the substance and I

specificity of the supplemental-contention he is required to I

file pursuant to 10 C.F.R. S2.714 (b) , and the Board's Inter-4 vention Order.
