DOCKET NUMBER L Pit 0D. & UTIL FAC.. 7. a Hampton Beach Area Chamber of Commerce Request to be heard on Participation by a person, not a party for Licensing Proceedings Pursuant to 2.715-43FR17798C. ,

The Hampton Beach Area Chamber of Commerce was dismissed as a party to the licensing proceedings due to inability of its representative to meet the demands of the process, and not because of a failure of its contentions. At the time of dismissal the Licensing Board assured the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce that its contentions would be respresented by the Attorney General's Office of the State of New Hampshire; thus the H.B.C.C. did not appeal the dis-missal to t!e Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Board. The H.B.C.C. believed the State of New Hampshire could and would represent their concerns.

In view of the fact that the Attorney General's Office of the State of New Hampshire has not filed contentions on either the State Emerge.ncy Plan or the Municipality Emergency Plan, the Hampton Beach Area Chamber of Commerce l

now requests the opportunity to participate in the limited area of evacuation.

This is crucial to the safety and economic future of this agency.

d during a crisis, therefore NUREGO 654A-4 and Appx. O IV NUREGJ-10j cannot be met.

BASES:

, Town officials, personnel and citizens cannot be required to perform duties for a utility, if those duties are not so ordered by the town. The town would have to accept liablity of those town officials and personnel if they were unable to adequately perform those duties. The town would have to compensate those officials and personnel if they so order them to place themselves at risk during a crisis situation.

Those private citizens cannot be required to perform duties that no contract has been entered into and no compensation has been paid and liability is covered by either of those parties.

CONTENTION IV:

The plan submitted by the State of N.H. cannot show adequate range of protection action developed for plume exposure in the EPZ pathway for emergency workers and the public as required by FR.50.47 (b) (10)

BASES:

(a) No evacuation plan for Hampton (b) No shelter, cannot meet requirements of NUREG J-9 II-18

! (c) Relocation centers have not been established. Host town cannot be ordered to take those from the exposed areas NUREG J-10 (a) (h)

(d) There is no method of notifying the public in the beach area where most do not have radio, television or telephones NUREG J-10 C II-2 (e) There is no reason to assume that the Public Works Director can be required to accept responsibility of developing internal procedures for l

transportation of those without auto or those with special needs. Nor is there reason to believe that the town of Hampton vould ever require the Public t

l

, . e Works Director to accept those responsibilities without the direct order of Hampton's citizens NUREC J-10.q.

(f) There is no reason to assume that Hampton's Building Inspector is willing or able to accept coordinating of state. local and volunteer organization regarding medical care. This is not what the citizens of Hampton require as a job relative to the Building Inspector FR.50.47 (b) (12) . .

(g) Private citizens cannot be required to perform duties' relative to this plan unless contracted to do so and they are not at this time.
