Governo. .own hereby supports the Request for Diredted gf y'h As - Certification filed by Joint Intervenors on October 8, 19'81W / f4t \\}$ Unlike PG&E's Motion for Reconsideration of September 21, 1981, which is not permitted by the NRC's regulations, Joint Inter-venors' request is authorized by tP-tegulations and is sub-stantively sound. Joint Intervenors conclusively demonstrate that the Licensing Board gave, at best, cursory consideration to the merits of the contentions put forth by Joint Intervenors and supported by Governor Ecown. Joint Intervenors also demonstrate that such contentions are admissible under the explicit guidance issued by the Commission on December 18, 1980, and April 1, 1981. It is essential that the Commission now intervene and order the ad-mission of these contentions. Otherwise, such Commission action would be postponed until a later appc _eached the Commission, thus requiring remand of the proceedin, and concommitant delay I)5453 in the litigation of the subject contentions. s 8110280059 811023 PDR ADOCK 05000275 lO O PDR
~ V 2. The-recent disc 1'osure of PG&E's long-overlooked design and construction mistakes should caution the Commission to consider most seriously the contentions of the Joint Intervenors. Time and again in this proceeding the PG&E and the Staff have sought to sweep under the rug the Joint Intervencts' and the Governor's technical and legal' concerns. On this' occasion, the Commission itself has the chance to correct the miscuided action of.the Licensing Board. Thc Governor submits that the Commission should seize this opportunity to prevent further error by the Licensing Board. -Respectfully submitted, 4 Byron S.
