20555 Re:
Docket Nos. 50-424 & 50-425
Dear Mr. Denton:
Georgia power has recently advised the Georgia Public Service Com-mission that it andicipates substantial excess capacity during this decade.
Contrary to data previously submitted to you, Georgia Power now projects excess capacity ranging from 40-46% after the scheduled completion of Vogtle 1 and 2.
An article from the August 22, 1980 Atlanta Journal discussing this matter is enclosed.
Georgians Against Nuclear Energy (GANE) again asks the Nuclear Regulatory Cc=missien to reconsider its decision on the above dockets cased on this new information.
GANE requests hearings to assess the need for power from the two Vogtle units, and the need for a supplemental Environmen-tal Impact Statement to acccunt fcr the new information, as required by the National Envirorr.cntal Protection Act.
The new forecasts of Georgia Power support the position already stated by GANE in these dockets.
Similarly, the new data undermines the factual basis of the decision of the Commission.
Accordingly, GANE respectfully urges that its entire petition in these dockets be expeditiously recensidered by the Commission in light of the new data.
Very trulv vours, 3

October 15, 1980 MEMORANDUM FOR: Harold R. Denton, Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation FROM:
James P. Murray Office of Executive Legal Director
SUBJECT:
2.206 PETITION REQUESTING HEARING ON NEED FOR POWER AT V0GTLE UNITS 1 & 2 AND HEARING ON SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT By letter dated September 25, 1980, Mr. Gary Flack, on behalf of Georgians Against Nuclear Energy, requested that hearings be held to assess the need for power from Georgia Power's Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, and to assess the need for a supplemental Environmental Impact Statement in light of new forecasts for electricity demand submitted by Georgia Power to the Georgia Public Service Commission. The request will be treated under section 2.206 of the Commission's Rules of Practice.
This request is similar to other requests made by GANE that have been treated under section 2.206. On October 30, 1978, GANE requested that the construction permits for the two Vogtle units be suspended and that hearings be held on the need for power from these two units. The request was based on new evidence concerning electrical demand in Georgia. On April 13, 1979, a denial of this request was issued by the Acting Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. On May 1, 1979, GANE requested a reconsideration of the denial. On October 12, 1979, this request was again denied by the Acting Director of NRP..
Finally, as a result of new forecasts submitted to the NRC by Georgia Power, GANE's request for suspension of construction and hearings was again analyzed. On March 26, 1980, you issued a supplemental Decision finding that the new information concerning the demand for electrical power did not alter the conclusions that had been reached in the two earlier denials.
This office will work with your staff to develop an appropriate response.
Enclosed for your use are drafts of:
1.
A letter to Mr. Flack acknowledging receipt of his letter; CONTACT: Ron Mount x28651 p/dN
\\
i - -
2.
A notice of receipt of request for publication in the Federal Register; and 3.
A copy of the letter from Mr. Flack requesting the action outlined above.
If these drafts are not changed, they need not be returned to this office for concurrence. However, please provide us with a copy of the outgoing letters and notice and refer other correspondence related to this matter to this office for concurrence. Also, please inform us who your staff contact on this matter will be.
