ESTIMATED SCHEDULE FOR THE FILING OF TESTIMONY

\\

b ic Approval of Stipulations The parties to this proceeding are to be complimented for the spirit of cooperation they have demonstrated in their extensive efforts, by informal discussions, aimed at clarifying and resolving contentions in this proceeding.

The stipulation of December 2, 1981, proposed jointly by the Shoreham Opponents Coalition (SOC), LILC0 and the NRC Staff regarding 50C Contentions 3, 6(a)(i), 7(a)(ii), 8, 9, 12 (Part 3), 15, 16, 17, and 19 is approved.

The stipulation of August 6,1981, proposed jointly by SOC, LILCO and the NRC Staff conditionally resolving S0C Contention 12 (Part 2) is approved.

The 5

parties shall inform the Board, as part of their initial written filings

/I p!82;gggt4aggggfgg G

,, below, whether S0C believes the assertions in the McCaffrey affidavit have now been confirmed, thereby removing the condition to which withdrawal of Contention 12 (Part 2) was subject.

The Board believes the above stipulations resolve the admissibility for litigation at the evidentiary operating license hearing of all SOC's contentions with the exception of Contentions la and Ib, 2 and renumbered Contention 78.

The Board wjll rule on the admissibility of these and other contentions advanced by all intervenors for which acceptability for litigation at a hearing is still in dispute, including SOC's proposed contentions relating to the requested extension of the construction permit, subsequent to the conference of parties scheduled below.

Summary Disposition LILCO, supported by the NRC Staff, has moved for summary disposition of S0C Contentions la and b and 2 relating to emergency planning. / The Board defers ruling on these motions pending further particularization by 50C of the contentions.

On the bases of the documents before us and the present vague wording of the contentions, we are unable to determine whether there is a genuine issue as to any material fact (including whether the contentions are an impermissible attack on the Commission's emergency planning regulations).

  • I-See:

(1)LILC0 Motion for Summary Disposition of SOC Contention 1, dated July 13, 1981; (2) LILC0 Motion for Summary Disposition of 50C Contention 2, dated July 13, 1981; (3) NRC Staff Response Supporting Applicant's Motion for Summary Disposition of S0C Contentions 1 and 2, dated September 18,'1981; (4) Response of Shoreham Opponents Coalition in Opposition to Applicant's Motion for Sumary Disposition of 50C's Contentions 1 and 2, dated November 2, 1981.

.- 50C is directed to set forth the specific local conditions around the Shoreham facility (within the broad categories now alleged in Contentions la and b) that it alleges would require adjustments to and deviations from the general radii of 10 and 50 miles for the plume exposure pathway EPZ and ingestion pathway EPZ, respectively, set forth in the emergency planning regulations.

As to each local condition specified, S0C shall include the approximate adjustment in the EPZ which it alleges is necessary and the reasons therefore.

As to 50C Contention 2, the Board directs S0C to specify how the effects of radioactive releases through the liquid pathway from the Shoreham facility would not be adequately considered by an approximately 50 mile radius ingestion pathway EPZ.

50C shall specify with greater precision the approximate adjustments it avers are necessary to provide reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.

50C shall make the above filings in the manner and time established below for initial filings.

LILCO and the NRC Staff shall respond to.S0C's specification of Contentions 1 and 2 in the manner and time established below for reply filings.

Consolidated Statement of Contentions LILC0 and the NRC Staff jointly shall file a statement consisting of these two phrts:

1) a statement of the precise wording of all contentions which the parties have agreed are litigable; and 2) a statement setting forth

e

.- the precise wording of all contentions which Intervenors now advance for litigation and to which the NRC Staff and/or LILC0_ object (from the standpoint of litigability).

Contentions advanced with respect to the CP extention shall be included.

With respect to part 2, the name of the objecting party and its objection or disagreement with the contention stated in summary form, shall be set forth. As to both parts of the listing of contentions, there shall be indicated the source documents from which each of the contentions and the objections have been extracted, including the date and page number.

In addition, LILC0 and the NRC Staff shall include a summary cover index of the contentions in each part. This should list the contentions by intervenor and number, accompanied by a capsule label of the subject matter of each contention and major subpart.

Intervenors shall file replies to the listing of contentions and the summaries of objections setting forth any disagreements with the accuracy of the wording of the contentions and summary replies to the LILC0 and NRC Staff objections to litigability of the contentions.

Intervenors shall indicate the source documents from which their differing views of wording of the contentions, if any, and their summary replies to the objections, have been extracted.

. Service of Papers All initial filings required by this order shall be served by means which assure the receipt of them _by February 19, 1982, by the Board and the lead attorneys for each active party. All reply filings shall be served by means '

which assure the receipt of the replies by March 1,1982, by the Board an,d the lead attorneys for each active party.

Other addressees on the service list may be served by first class mailing of the filings on the above dates.

Conference of Parties and Preparation of Testimony A conference of the parties will be held on March 9 and 10, 1982, at the Port Jefferson Village Hall, 121 West Broadway, Route 25A, Port Jefferson Long Island. New York 11777.

All parties are directed to attend. The con-ference shall begin at 9:30 AM on Tuesday, March 9, and continue on March 10, if necessary.

The purpose of the conference is to hear arguments on the admissibility of disputed contentions, and to discuss the filings of the parties, the pre-sent posture of the case and further remaining issues relating to the prehearing and hearing schedule.

With the exception of Emergency Planning Contentions, parties should commence preparing their direct testimony in anticipation of a schedule which

. would require the filing of written direct testimony as early as mid-April 1982.

The parties are directed to pursue all remaining discovery of information presently available (for all contentions not objected to) prior to the conference of parties.

Applicant's Motion to establish hearing schedule is denied.

Suffolk County shall report status of legislative action of Sixth Stipulation by November 25.

Staff shall advise by November 25 when open items in SSER and ACRS letter will be closed.
