Unit No. 1)

NRC STAFF REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE ADDITIONAL TESTIMONY INTRODUCTION On October 15, 1981, the Board issued a Memorandum and Order which, inter alia, ordered the Staff to file by October 26, 1981 additional reismic testimony responding in full to the several technical reports solicited and recently distributed by the Board. The Statf herewith requests an extension of time for the filing of such testimony.

For the reasons explained in the attached affidavit, the Staff is unable to file the requested testimony on October 26, 1981.

See Affidavit of Robert E.

Jackson and James P. Knight, dated October 1981.

DISCUSSION In its supplemental seismic testimony, dated September 15, 1981 the Staff included a preliminary assessment of the first such report to be distributed. The last of the reports in question was distributed by the Board on September 28, 1981.

The Staff review of the subject reports is in progress.

Additional time is required to fully and adequately address the numerous points raised by those reports. The Staff submitted a number a IGNAr g 0nIc""-

. r-of questions for the Applicant relative to certain unprocessed accelerometer data identified in the Applicant's October 9,1981 letter to Harold Denton.

See also related Staff " Board Hotification", dated October 20, 1981. The Staff believes that a complete evaluation of this information is necessary in order to prepare meaningful additional testimony directed to the Board generated reports. The Staff would anticipate being able to file the requested additional testimony within four weeks of the receipt of the Applicant's response to these questions.

Counsel has informed the Applicant of the present request to which it objected. Counsel attempted unsuccessfully to reach the Intervenor.

CONCLUSION AND REQUEST FOR RELIEF Accordingly, pursuant to 10 CFR 92.711 for " good cause" shown, the NRC Staff hereby requests an extension of time within which to file the requested additional seismic testimony untti its review of the subject technical reports and more recent accelerometer data can be completed.

Respectfully submitted, Steven Goldberg Counsel for NRC Staff Dated at Bethesda, Maryland this 21st day of October,1981
