Docket No. 50-537, (10 CFR 50.12 Exemption Request); CONSTRUCTION PERMIT EXEMPTION; Januay 3,1983, MEMOR ANDUM AND ORDE R A The Commission clarifies and affirms its previous findmg (CLI 82-23,16 NRC 412 (1982)) of exigent and other extraordinary circumstances earranting the grant of the Department of Eryergy's request for an exemption pursuant to 10 CF R $50.12 for initiation of site preparation activities in con-nection with the Cimch River facihty. B The availabihty of an exempiion pursuant to 10 CFR 65012 for the initiation of site prepara-tion activities is determined by whether, in totahty of the circumstances in a particular case, exigent circumstances exist, weighed against the adverse environmental impacts associated with the pro-posed activities under the eacmption. C The timely satisfaction of pubhc needs by reducing unanticipated delays in the realization of facihty benefits and the avoidance of costs induced by such unespected delays constitute exigent cir, cumstances supporting the grant of an exemption under 10 CFR 150.12 for the conduct of pre-cortstruction site preparation activities. D in determining whether to grant an exemption pursuant to 10 CFR 150.12 to begin site prepa-ration activities, the Commission will weigh the exigencies of the situation asamst the aswciated aJ-verse environmentalimpacts. Where the environmentalimpacts of the proposed actiuties are insignificant, but the potential adverse consequences of delay may be severe and an exemption will mitigate those effects, it is reasonable to grant the exemptior in spite of uncertamtics as to the exi-gencies of the,t particular situation.

With respect to the record, the Commission decides that the matters involved would be more appropriately ad-dressed as a generic matter in the overall consideration of NRC emergency plans and vacates the ruling.

With respect to those individuals who fall within the first category, no additional i medical facilities or capabihties beyond those currently required for onsite personnel and emergency workers are required, facilities with which prior arrangements have been made or which have the capability to treat contaminated irsured indniduals should be identified. Treatment for individuals who fall within the second category need be arranged for only on an as-needed basis. Emergency plans should identify local or regional medical facilities that can provide appropriate treatment for ra-diation caposure, but no prior contractual agreements are necessary and no additional facihties need be constructed.

B The regulatory structure estabhshed by the emergency planning rule,10 CFR 50.54(s),is in-tended to be flexible; the Commission is to look at the totality of the circumstances; to allow grace 6 periods, where appropriate, for the correction of deficiencies; to balance a variety of factors even i where grace periods have cspired without the completion of every desirable corrective action; and to recognize that emergency planning is a fluid process, requiring regular updating, testing, and adjustment. It is the Commission's duty to determme when the gravity of outstandmg deficiencies, their persistence, the limitations of interim compensatory measures, and other factors, taken together, counsel the end of grace periods, and the imposition instead of a shutdown. C Neither the law nor the Commission's regulations dictate how many opportunities a licensee s has to bring itselfinto comphance with the Commission's regulatory rules. See Rockland County v.

The Commission accordmsty holds that if the apphcant can meet all the other requiremems of the Atomic Energy Act and NRC regulations pertinent to the grant of a low power hcense,it isentitled to that heense here. B 10 CFR 550 47(d) gives the Commission unquahfied authorization to issue a low-power license in the absence of NRC or FEM A approval of an offsite emergency plan so long as other prerequisites, including an adequate state of onsite emergency preparedness, are met The section re-qwires no predictive findmg of reasonable assurance with regard to offsite emergency plannmg prior to low-power operation. i Vnw ~MG y QW 2 w -.q h

The Commission determmes that: (1) the Appeal Board erred in holdmg that Section 189a. of the 4tomic Energy Act requires a heensing board to treat the good cause factor of 10 CFR 2.714f a)(1) as controllms in ruimg on the admissibihty of a contention that is filed late because it is based solely on information in institutionally unassilable licensing-related documents; (2) it is not inconsistent with pubhc hearing rights for a licensing board to consid-er all five factors contained in Section 2.714falf t) before admitting a late contention based on previously unavailable information; and (3) the institutional unassilability of a hcensing related document does not establish good cause for filing a contention late ifinformation eas available early enough to provide the basis for the timely filing of that contention. B lt is well-established that Section 189a. of the Atomic Energy Act does not provide an un-quahfied right to a hearing Rather, the Commission is authonzed to esablish reasonable regulations on procedural matters hke the fihng of petitions to intervene and the proffering of contentions, BPI [

v. AEC,502 F.2d 424 (D C. Cir.1974); Eastern Utihties Commission v. AEC,424 F.2d 847 (D C.

Cir.1970). C Section 189a. of the Act is not offended by a procedural rule that simply recognizes that the public's interest in an efficient administrative process is not properly accounted for by a rule of au-s j tomatic admission ofcertam late-filed contentions. Cf. BPI v. AEC, supra-D Where agency procedural requirements simply raise the threshold for admittmg some con-tentions as an incidental effect of regulations designed to prevent unnecessary delay in the heanns k process, such requirements are reasonable Cf. United Mme Workers v. Kleppe,561 F.2d 1258, i 1263 (7th Cir.1977). E The proper test of a regulation is =hether its normal and fair interpretation mill deny persons of their statutory nghts.

This should include means for protectirig persons whose mobihty may be impaired, e g., the elderly, the handicapped, and school children. L Licensees, States, and local jurisdictions should disseminate, at least annually, information regarding how the pubhc will be notified and what its actions should be in the event of an emergency. The information is to address, among other thmss, the special needs of the handicapped and is to in-drate how to effect protective measures, e s., evacuation routes, relocation centers and sheltering. 1 M Uruise the much smaller plume EPZ where evacuation or sheltering from the plume may be a matter of immediacy, protective action in the 50-mile radius ingestion EPZ need not be as immediate. Moreover, the kinds ofingestion EPZ protective action that would be suggested - such as quarantining or disposing of certain foodstuffs in designated areas - are highly site and accident t i specific: hence, they are less amenable to planning ir, sdvance of an accident than the comparabic + responses of sheltering or evacuation that are appropriate for the plume EPZ. N It is axiomatic that specific training should be regsrad for persons espected to assist in a radi-ological emergency; that it should be tailored to the level of expertise expected in each area of responsibility; and that it should be effective.

The Appeal Board affirms, but for different reasons, the Licensing Board's denial of an inter-vention petition filed in this construction permit extension proceedmg. B Under the Atomic Energy Act and Commission regulations,if a nuclear power plant is not completed by the latest date specified in a construction permit, the permit expires and all rights there-under are forfei'ed, however, this lapsing of rights is subject to the proviso "[tlhat upon good cause shown the Commission will extend the completion date for a reasonable period of time." 42 U.S C. 12235; 10 CFR {50.55(b). C The test for determining whether a contention is within the scope of a constructon permit extension proceedmg is a two-pronged c..e. First, the construction delays at issue hase to be traces-i ble to the applicant. Second, the delays must be " dilatory."If both prongs are met, the delay as with-out " good cause." CLI-82-29,16 N RC 1221,1231 (1982). D At the pleadmg stage all that is required for a contention to be acceptable for htigation is that it be specific and have a basis.

DIGESTS ISSUANCES OF THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING APPEAL BOARDS %] ^ { E " Dilatory conduct"in the sense used by the Commission in defining the test for determining whether a contention is within the scope of a construction permit eatension proceeding means the in- ) tentional delay ofconstruction without a valid purpose. See CLI-82-29, supra,16 N RC at 1231. wg F 10 CFR 12.206 affords all persons the opportunity to raise whatever health, safety, or envi-ronmental concerns the construction or operation of a nuclear power plant may cause them. The Sec-tion 2.206 remedy is taken seriously, is available at all times, and provides the bridge the Commis-sion expects a litigant to use in most instances between the construction permit and operating hcense proceedings. CLI-82-29, supra,16 N RC at l228-29. O The fact that an application for an operating license is uncontested does not mean that an operating license automatically issues. An operating hcrnse may not issue unless and until the N RC staff makes the findings specified in 10 CFR 50.57 - including the ultimate finding that such is-suance will not be inimical to the health and safety of the public.

H Unless an applicant is responsible for delays in completion ofconstruction and acted in a d la-i tory manner (i.e., intentionally and without a vahd purpose), a contested construction permit enten-1 sion proceeding is not to be undertaken at all. Moreover, even if a properly framed contention leads ^ to such a proceeding and is proven true, the Atomic Energy Act and implementing regulations do not erect an absolute bar to extending the permit. A judgment must still be made as to whether con-tinued construction should nonetheless be allowed. 42 U.S.C.12235; 10 CFR 50.55(b). 3 ALAB 723 PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF OKLAHOM A, et al.

In the same vein, consideration of acci-dents other than those postulated in staff guidance may be warranted. See e.g., Florida Power and <u*.

ALAB-726 PHILADELPHIA ELECTRIC COMPANY (Limenck Generstmg Station, Units I and 2), Docket Not 50-352-OL,50-353-OL; OPERATING LICENSE; May 2,1983; MEMORANDUM AND ORDER A On consideration of a referred ruling by the Licensing Board that it lacked jurisdiction to act on a request to reopen the record in this operating license proceeding (LBP 83-25,17 NRC 681), the Appeal Board determines that jurisdiction to rule on the request remains with the Licensing Board and temands the request for disposition on the merits. B Jurisdiction to rule on a motion to reopen filed after exceptions have been taken to an initial decision rests with the Appeal Board rather than the Licensing Board. Metropolitan Edison Co. (Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit No.1), ALAB-699,16 NRC 1324,1327 (1982). C Until exceptions to an initial decision have been filed, jurisdiction to rule on a motion to reopen lies with the licensing board. D Where no exceptions to an initial decision have been filed withia Ge time allowed and the appeal board has neither completed its sua sponte review nor e stended the time for do.rq so,jurisdic-tion to rule on a motion to reopen lies with the licensing board. E Until exceptions are filed, there is literally no appeal to invoke appeal board jurisdiction (We generally 10 CFR ll2.762(a),2.785) and, necessarily, an appeal board has no familiarity with the case. F An NRC appeal board has broader powers than most appellate bodies. But neither the board's sua sponte review authorsty ner its power, in exceptional circumstances, to take evidence and make its own factual determinations enhances its knowledge of a proceeding before the proceed-ing reaches its docket or operates to give it jurisdiction over an initial decision immediately upott the initialdecision'sissuance. ALAB-727 CINCINNATI GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY, et al. (Wm. H. Zimmer Nuclear Power Station, Unit No.1), Docket No. 50-358; OPERATING LICENSE; May 2,1983, DECISION A The Appeal Board affirms, with certain modifications, the Licensms Board's initial decision (LBP-82-48,15 NRC 1549) withholding authorization of a full-power operating hcense for Zimmer until applicants demonstrate adequate and implementable evacuation plans for schools nearby the plant site in the event of a serious plant emergency. B Under Commission regulations, no operating license for a nuclear power reactor can issue unless the NRC finds that there is reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures both on and off the facility site can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.10 CFR 50 47(a)(1). With regard to the adequacy of offsite emergency measures, the NRC must " base its findmg on a review of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEM A) findings and determi-nations as to whether State and local emergency plans are adequate and whether there is reasonable assurance that they can be implemented." 10 CFR 50.47(a)(2). C The Commission's regulatory scheme for offsite emergency response plans contemplates the establishment, for planning purposes, of two emergency planning zones-t plume exposure pathway EPZ, a more or less circular area extending approximately ten miles frorn the plant, and an ingestion exposure pathway EPZ, a similarly shaped area with a fifty mile radius The former is concerned prin-cipally with the avoidan:e in the event of a nuclear facility accident of whole body external exposure I and inhalation exposure from passing radioactive plume, while the latteris concerned with avoiding eaposure traceable to contaminated weter or foods.

F Under 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.D.3, a hcensee must have the capability to notify responsible state and local governmental agencies withm 15 minutes after declarms an emergency. The state and local agencies, in turn, must have the capability to make a public notifica-tion decision promptly on being informed by the licensee of an emergency condition. The design ob-jective of the prompt public notification system calls for compicuon of imtial notification of the public within the plume EPZ within about 15 minutes of the local government omcials' receipt of noufication of an emergency requiring urgent action. G Emergency response plans for a particular nuclear power plant need not be in final form at the time an application is noticed for hearing.10 CFR Part 50 Appendix IV, Section 111 Not any plan, however, no matter how skeletal, will suffice at this stage. The plans submitted mustjnclude a descriphon of their contents "to an extent sumcient to demonstrate that the plans provide reasonable , assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of an emergency." 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix E, Section Ill (emphasis supphed). Sn also Southern California Edison Co. (San Onofre Nuclear Generating Stauon, Units 2 and 3), ALAB-717,17 NRC 346,380 fn. 57 (1983). H The Commission's emergency planning requirements do not prescribe specific time hmits governing the esacuation of plume EPZs. The matter of the time within which evacuanon can be ac-complished is seft to be determined on a case-by-case basis upon consideration of all re!cvant condi-tions prevaihng in the specific locality. I An evacuation plan must be concerned with the emciency with which evacuation might be accomplished given the conditions under which it must take place. If the responsible governmental omcials are to make an informed decision respecting what is appropriate protective action in a given radiological emergency, they must have available to them time estimates that are realistic appraisals of the minimum period in which, in light of emisting local conditions, evacuation could be reasonably accomphshed. J The basic goal of emergency planning is achievement of maximum dose savings in a radi-ologicalemergency. K At the operatmg license hearing stage, emergency response plans for a nuclear plant need not necessa-ily be complete in all their details, but they must be at least sumciently developed for the Licensing Board to be able to conclude that the siste of emergency preparedness provides " reasonable assurance that adequate protective meamres can and Wil be taken in the event of a radi-ological emergency." 10 CFR 50.47(a)(I). See also San Onofre, AL AB 717. supra,17 NRC at 380 fa. 57.

I G DIGESTS ISSUANCES OF THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING APPEAL B04RDS $[ [' h B Under 10 CFR 50.47fd) of the Commission's emergency planning regulations, for fuelload-h ing and low power testing, it is the apphcant's onsite emergency plan and preparedness that is crucial, not the offsite plans and readiness of the state and county. C Under 10 CFR 50.47(d), NRC review of emergency planning for purposes oflow power test-ing is based solely on an assessment of the apphcant's emergency plan against the pertinent standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E. While this primarily involves a consideration of applicant's capabihty to cope with an emerg:ncy onsite, the statement of considerations accom-pan)ias 10 CFR 50.47(d) makes slear that review of applicant's onsite response mechanism necessarily involves aspects of some olisite elements: communications, notification, assistance agreements, fire protection and medical organization, and the like. 47 Fed. Reg. 30232 Ouly 13, 1982). D Current regulations do not require consideration of the impacts on emergency planning of earthquakes which cause or occur during an accidental radiological release. Until the Commission decides whether its regulations should be changed to address this question, the possible comphcating effects of an earthquake on emergency planning should not be considered in individual hcensing r proceedings. Southern Cahfornia Edison Co. (San Onofre Nuclear Generstma, Station, Units 2 and 3), CL1-81-33,14 N RC 1091,1092 (1981).

See 10 CFR 51.5(b),51.5(c)(1). F An adequate final environmental impact statement for a nuclear facihty necessarily includes the lesser impacts attendant to low power testing of the facihty and removes the need for a separate statement focusing on questions such as the costs and benefits oflow power testing. i G The Commission's June 13,1980 Pohey Statement, " Nuclear Po ver Accident Considera-tions Under the Nat onal Environmental Policy Act of 1969, requires the agency's environmental statements to include treatment of so-called " Class 9" accidents only in those proceedings that were then "at a licensing stage where a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) has not yet been f issued." 45 Fed.

DIGESTS ISSUANCES OF THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING APPEAL BOARDS K The Commission may vahdly prescribe threshold requirements for a party seekmg to reopen a proceeding to litigate any issue, whether or not TMl-related. See BPI v. Atomic Energy Commission,502 F 2d 424 (D.C. Cir.1974). .+[ph, L When an apphcant for an operating hcense files a motion for authority to conduct low power y, testing in a proceeding where the evidentiary record is closed but the licensmg board has not yet U issued an initial decision finally disposmg of all comested issues, the board is obhgated to issue a deci- ((*d sion on all outstanding issues (i.e., contentions previously admitted and htigated) relevant to low M$ poner testing before authorizmg such testms. See 10 CFR 50.57(c). Such a monon, however, does w* not automatically pre 2nt an opportunity to file new contentions specifically aimed at low power test-ing or any other phase of the operating lecense application. M Under 10 CFR 2.714, contentions submitted by intervenors and subjects submitted by the representative of an interested state must set forth the basis for each contention or subject with rea-sonable specificity. See Northern States Power Co. (Prairie Island Nuclear Generatmg Plant, Umts I and 2), ALAB-107,6 AEC 188,192 (1973),all'd sub nom., BPI v. Atomic Energy Commission, 502 F.2d 424 (D C.Cir.1974). N In proceedmgs where the evidentiary record has been closed, the record should not be reo-pened absent a showing, by the moving party, of sigmficant new evidence not included in the record, that materially affects the decision. " Bare allegations or simple submission of nem contentions is not sufficient." Pacific Gas and Electric Co. (Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Units I and 2), CLI-815,13 NRC 361,362 63 (1981). O in any challenge to applicant's comphance with NRC regulations. a party must meet the g pleadmg requirements of specificity and basis contamed in 10 CFR 2.714, and,if the time for fihng contentions has espired and the evidentiary record closed, then the party's challenge must also meet the standards for late-filed contentions and reopening tbc record. In the latter situationi, "the parties are required to make the initial case that significant new evidence is available, not merely make claims to that effect."Id. at 363. P Under 10 CFR 2.758(a), no rule or regulation of the Commission is subject to attack in an ad-judicatory proceedmg. Q Under 10 CFR 2.758(b), a party petitionmg for waiver or esception from a Commission regulation must estabhsh, by affidavit, the emistence of special circumstances such that application of 3 the challenged regulation would not serve the purpose for which it was adopted. Under 10 CFR l 2.758(d),if the hcensms board determines that a prima facie showing has been made that apphcation of the rule mill not serve the purposes for which it was adopted, the board shall cerufy to the Commis-sion the question w hether a waiver or enception should be granted. 1 R In a construction permit proceeding, a hcensing board must make a findmg under the Com-mission's regulations that there is a reasonable assurance that the facihty can be constructed and operated without undue risk to the pubhc. See 10 CFR 50.35(a). Moreover, such findmg should en-compass all safety matters, notjust those put in contest by the parties. See 10 CFR Part 2, Appendis i A, Section V(f)(2). A S in a construction permit proceedmg, a hcensing board need not duphcate the s'aff's review i but must nevertheless determine from the record whether the staff review of all uncontested safety issues - has been adequate. Gulf States Utilities Co. tRiver Bend Station, Units I and 2), AL AB-444,6 N RC 760 (1977). T in a construction permit proceeding, the NRC staff has a duty to produce the necessary esi-dence of the adequacy of the review of unresolved generic safety issues. Id. at 775 and n 28. I U In an operating license proceeding, the Commission's regulauons hmit an adjudicatory board's findings to the issues put into contest by the parties. See 10 CFR 2.760s. A board is not re-quired to make (and, under the regulations cannot property make) 1 e ultimate findmg comparable 6 to that required in a construction permit proceedmg f V NRC regulations give an adjudicatory board the discretion to aise on its own monon any serious safety or environmental matter.

DIGESTS ISSUANCES OF THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING APPEAL BOARDS ALAB-729 METROPOLITAN EDISON COMPANY, et al- (Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Uma No.1), Docket No. 50-289 (Design issues); SPECI AL PROCEEDING; May 26,1983. DECISION A in another ofits appellate decisions in this special proceedmg to determme whether Umt 1 of this facihty should be permitted to resume operation, the Appea! Board deals with the issues of plant Tj design, rnodifications and procedures, and the physical separation of Three Mile Island Units I and

2. The Appeal Board 6nds, with some empress quahfications, that all the systems, structures and compor:enis it examined are sufUciently reliable to permit restart of the Unit. Because, homeser, there are other safety issues that are before the Commission for its separate and esclusive determination, the Appeal Board does not decide the overall question of the operabihty of Umt 1, leaving it to the Commission to decide after it has exammed all systems and considered information within and outside the record in this proceedmg.

B Each applicant for a nuclear power plant construction permit must submit a prehminary safety analysis report as part ofits apphcation. This report must descnbe and discuss the design and operating characteristics of the plar:t,includmg, importantly, an esaluation of the design and perfor-mance of those structures, systems and components intended to ensure that accidents can be pre-vented and that the consequences of accidents can be mitigated. See 10 CFR {50.34tal. C The design of a nuclear power plant must conform to the standards estabhshed in the Com-mission's General Design Cnteria (G DC), which set mmimum requirements for the structures, sys-tems and components importarit to safety at nuclear power plants. D A proper standard for determinmg safety of nuclear power plant operation is whether present systems can assure reasonable protection of the pubhc health and safety. See Citizens for Safe Power

v. NRC,524 F.2d 1291,1297f D C. Cir.1975); Nader v. NRC,513 F.2d 1045,1052-54 (D C. Cir 1975); Petition for Shutdown of Certain Reactors, CLI 73-31,6 AEC 1069,1070-71 (1973); Metro-politan Edison Co. (Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Umt No. 2), ALAB-486,8 NRC 9,46 (1978). Absolute certainty or " complete " " entire," or " perfect" safety is not required by the Atomic Energy Act, nor does nuclear safety technology admit of such a standard. What constitutes

" reasonable assurance of adequate protection" is also subject to change, as the state of the nuclear safety art advances. It is for the Commission to meigh the state of that art, the risk of accidents, the record of past performance, the need for further improvement in nuclear safety matters. and other considerations. Nader v. Ray,363 F.Supp. 946,954 ( D D C.1973). E Licensees may take reasonable action that departs from hcense conditions or techmcal spe-cifications in an emergency w hen such action is needed to protect the public health and safety.See 48 Fed. Reg.13966 ( Apr. I,1983). F Structures, systems, and components that are "important to sareiy" are those that " provide reasonable assurance that the facihty can be operated without undue risk to the health and safety of the pubhc." 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, introduction. *Important to safety"is not the equivalent to but is broader than the term " safety-grade." The latter refers to equipment that meets entremely ngid design criteria so as to produce the highest degree of reliabihty. See, e s., Sacramento Municipal Utahty Districe t Rancho Seco Nuclesr Generatmg Station), AL AB-655,14 NRC 799,808 (1981). G Not all equipment that may play some safety role at a nuclear plant need meet safety-grade { cntena. Under the regulations, all structures, systems and components encompassed by the term l "important to safety,"includmg the " safety-grade" sub-class, are necessary to meet the broad safety goal articulated m the GDC,i c., to provide reasonable assurance that a facihty can be operated with-out undue risk to the health and safety of the pubhc, as required by statute Only " safety-grade" 8 structures, s) stems and components, however, are relied upon to meet cntical safety functions, such as those identified in 10 CFR Part 100 accident prevention, saf, shutdown, and accident conse-quence mitigation. 11 To be considered safety-grade, a system must be able to remam operative after a design seis-mic event and to function in any harsh environment which may be curected at its location after an accident. I The Commission's regulations do not require upgradmg of nonufety systems to safety-grade standards. J Parties mierested in htigatmg unresolved safety issues must do somethmg more than simply offer a checkhst of unresobed issues; they must show that the issues have some specific safety sig-niGcance for the reactor in question and that the appl. cation fcls to resche the matters satisfactonly. .Od%'., Gulf States Utiht'es Co (Riser Bend Station, Units I and 2), AL AB-444. 6 NRC 760,772 73 (1977). ge T y 3 wa/4 ..y4_y { 24 a s 1 f

LBP-83-2 P ACIFIC G AS AND ELECTRIC COMP ANY (Stanislaus Nuclear Project, Unit 1). Docket No. P-564-A ( ASLBP No-76-334-07-AN), ANTITRUST; January 19, 1983; MEMORANDUM AND ORDER A The Licensing Board grants apphcant's motion to withdraw its construction permit apphca-tion without prejudice subject to its compliance with terms and conditions established by the Board for the preservation of discovery documents. B The possibihty that an intervenor may be faced e the future with a refiled apphcation and at-tendant burdens of renewed intervention is no bar to granting a motion to withdraw an apr,ication l for the construction of a nuclear plam, without prejudice. Any harm the intervenor may suffer, recognized as sxh under the law, can be overcome by attaching appropriate compe nsatmg conditions as a requirement for withdrawal. C The decision of the apphcant to withdraw its apphcation for the construcuon of a nuclear plant was a businessjudgment. The law on withdrawal does not require a determination of the sound-ness of the decisinn. What can be required of the Licensing Board is to appropriately condition the order governing the dismissal to overcome legally reco6nized harm arising from allowing the with-drawal without prejudice.

B The regulatory requirement that a separate and distinct statement of material facts must be filed by intervenors is mandatory. When such a statement is not filed the Board must accept the facts contained in the separate and distinct statement of material facts filed with the motion for summary i disposition. C Even if th; *espondent fails to file a separate and distmct statement of material facts in re-sponse to a motion for summary disposition, the motion must be demed unless the motion estab-hshes the absence of a genuine issue of material fact.

B The degree to which an answer serves the purposes of discovery - to narrow the issues by determining the real factual disputes, safeguard against surprise at trial, and permit adequate prepara-tion for trial - must be weighed against a claim that the answer is unduly burdensome. j C Where interrogatones address contemions that are not sponsored by the interrogee and that will not be the subject of direct testimony by the interrogee, there is httle benefit derived from com-pelling answers. D An intervenor may not adduce afGrmative evidence on another intervenor's contentions without amending its own contentions to reflect its adoption of those issues. Leave to amend its inter-vention petition will be granted if the Board is satisGed that the intervenor has s! oen good cause for its failure to have raised the issue at an earher pomt and if allowance of the amendment may assist the Board in the proper resolution of the issue without occasioning unwarranted delay.

B Where the petitioner organization's membership schcitation brochure demonstrates that the organization's sole purpose is to oppose nuclear power in general and the construction and operation of nuclear plants in the northwes' in particular, mere membership by a person wih geographic stand-ing to intervene, without specific representational authority, is sufficient to confer standing.

A The Licensing Board rules on various discovery disputes,includmg claims of attorney work Y< #E product privilege and discovery of non-witness experts. B An interrogatory is proper that inquires about a study, calculation or analysis upon which an answer to a specific interrogatory is cased, particularly where it relates to the interrogee's own contention. Interrogatories that inquire into the basis of a contention serve the dual purposes of nar-rowing the issues and preventing surprise at Inal. C Under 10 CFR 52J40(b)(1) discovery is liberally granted in order to enable the parties to as-certain necessary facts, refine and narrow the issues, and adequately prepare for complex lit!gation. D Discovery of the foundation upon which a contention is based is not only clearly withm the realm of proper discovery, but also is necessary for an applicant's preparation for hearms. E Where an NRC rule of practice is based on a federal rule of ci6il procedure,judicialinterpre-tations of that federal rule will serve as guidance for the interpretation of the analogous NRC rule. F Where a party asserts a privilege in objecting to a discovery request, the burden is upon the objecting party to establish the existence of the privilege.

H A party objecting to a discovery request on the grounds that the matenal is protected by the attorney work product privilege has the burden of establishing that the materialis p'rotected by 10 CFR 62340(b)(2); i.e., that the material is (1) " documents and tangible things"; (2) prepared in an-ticipation of htigation or for trial; and (3) by or for another party or for that party's representative. I The guidance provided by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will be applied to resolve a discovery dispute even though no analogous rule of practice has'been adopted by the Commission. In determining whether to follow the guidance, the hcensms board will inquire into w hether the situ-ation before it is analogous to the situation the federal rule seeks to govern. J In accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26f b)(4), the identity of non-witness ex-perts who have been retained or specifically employed by the party in preparation for trial and the content of their advice are pnvileged from discovery. Rule 26(b)(4) different ates between experts whom the party expects to call as witnesses and those who have been retained or speciGcally em. ployed by the party in preparation for trial. As the Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules explain, discovery of expert witnesses is necessary, particularly in a complex case, to narrow the issues and ehminate surprise, but that purpose is not furthered by discovery of non-witness experts.

The absence of any such plan would not, hometer, require the demal of an operatmg hcense as a matter of lam, or require that an applicant obtain an enemption from the regulations before a license may be issued. Pursuant to 10 CF R 550.47(c)(l),in the absence of one or more of the plans required to be Gled pursuant to section 50.33(g), an applicant is granted the opportunity to demonstrate "to the sat-isfaction of the Commission that deficiencies in the plans are not sigmGcant for the plant in question, that adequate intenm compensating action have been or will be taken promptly, or that there are other compelhng reasons to permit plant operation." E Pursuant to 10 CFR 650 47(a)(1), the issuance of an operating hcense for a power reactor is conditioned on an NRC determmation that the state of onsite and olisde emergency preparedness provides reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and mill be taken m the event of a radiological emergenry. Section 50 47(sH2) provides that the NRC is to make this overall determination based on a review of FEM A Gndmss and determinations as to wheth'er " state and I local emergency plans" are adequate and whether there is reasonable assurance that they can be implemented, and on the NRC assessment as to whether the "appicants' onsite emergency plans" are adequate and whether there is reasonable assurance that they can be implemented. This provision i does not itself require that state and local government oriste radiological response plans be filed by an apphcant; it merely bifurcates initial review of the emergency plans required by section 50.33 f g) between the NRC and FEM A. F in the event that the NRC determines on the basis o(its section 50 47(a) review that therc are denciencies in the status of emergency plannmg based on defects in or the absence of a state or local government ofTute emergency response plan, this does not automatically require the demal of an operating license. Section 50.47(c)(l) provides that in such cases "the apphcant will have an op-portunity to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Commismon that denciencies in the plans are not sigmficant far the plant in question, that adequate interim compennatmg actions have been or mill be taken promptly, or that there are other compelhns reasons to permit plant operation." In the absence of a state or local government plan, the Commission may base this determination on uuhty spon-sored offste plan. G Section 109f a) of the NRC Authonzation Act for fiscal year 1980, Pub. L.

M The refusal of a local government to adopt or implement a radiological emergency response plan does not, as e matter of las, preclude the issuance of an operating hcense for a nuclear power plant. A state or iocal government's refusal to participate may factually preclude a utihty from demonstrating that adequate emergency planning esists to protect the pubhc health and safety, there-by acting as a de facto veto of the issuance of an operating license. The Commission's rules of practice do not, however, give state and local governments a de jure veto over plant operation. The latter rejected interpretation of the Commission's regulatsoes would permit state and local governments to regulate radiological hazards and would therefore be inconsistent eith fl271 and 274 of the Atomic Energy Actof1954,asamended. N in enacting ((271 and 274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 19M Congress intended to reserve to the federal government the eaclusive power to regulate matters of radiological health and safely in i connection with the construction and operation of a nuclear power plant;Cor4ress did not intend to further limit the power of states to regulate activities "other than protection asamst radiatinn hazards" associated with those areas over which the NRC had comp 4cte control.

The Commission denies a petition for rulemaking which requested that the Commission amend its emergency planning rules for nuclear power plants so that the results of the offsite emergency preparedness exercise held prior to full-power operation would be htigable in the operat-ing hcense proceedmg The petition is denied because the requested amendment is unnecessary, con-trary to sound admimstrative practice, and would add regulatory delays to the Commission's licens-ing process without a correspondmg increase in pubhc health and safety. 8 The apphcant's emergency plan is skin to the design of the facility. The task of the hcensing board confronted with eme*gency planning issues is to decide whether the plan meets the Commis-sion's regulations and to predict w hether it can be implemented successfully. C The full-scale offsite emergency plan exercise should be held as close in time as possible to commercial operation of the facihty to ensure that the exercise involves those personnel who will ac-tually operate the facility. D It is impractsal to hold the fu!! power operating license proceedmg record open solely for the purpose of heigsting the results of the full-scale offsite exercise, because full-power operation of the completed facility could be delayed for months with no commensurate safety benefit. Deficiencies appearms in the exercise can be corrected without further litigation. E Deficiencies in the full-scale offsne esercise are not suitable subjects for the adjudicatory setting. The function of the licensms board is to determine whether the plan meets the Commission's regulations. However, a heanns could be reconvened upon an appropriate evidentiary showing that some key aspect of the plan turns out to be inadequate or unworkable. F It is not enough to assert, without more, that removal of a hmited subject from the adjudica-tive phase of the igensing process necessartly equals a loss of protection of the public health and safety, or imphes a loss of the pubhc's right to recourse where the factsjustify entraordinary licensing action. G The Commission has the discretion to separate matters which properly belong in the licens-ing phase from those which belong in the post adjudicative operational phase. The record in a heens-ing proceedmg must close at some logical point, and the Commission hasjudicially-recognized dis-cretion to select that pomt on a rational basis. Petitioner did not show that the placing of esercise deficiencies into the post-a4udicative category was without such a basis, and thus cannot prevail on statutory grounds. DPRM-33-2 John F.
