FDTION 'IO IEDPEN DISCCfERY ON ISSUE #8 Intervenor Ohio' Citizens for Pesponsible Energy'("OCE") respectfully

' l requests the. Licensing Board to reopen discovery on Issue #8, on hydrogen control, for the good cause shown herein. CCE noves that:

. Tenperature Response to Hydrogen Ccnbustion for Cleveland Electric Illuminating Co. Perry Nuclear Poaer Plant" OPS-38A92, October 7, 1982.

l(b.) New information submitted by Applicants to the NRC at a June 19, 1984 meeting. _. mis.information indicated Applicants' substantial reliance on the work of other entities' and is the basis of the nore general interrogatories in OCRE's. m irteenth Set.

It is important. to. note that the docments received by OCRE on May 2 could have been.made available.by Applicants much earlier. Ore of the documents is dated October.7, 1982. It thus could have been i lentified in Applicants' original. responses to OCRE's first ' interrogatories on Issue #8 propounded in' the fall of.1982.It is quite probable that, had the Licensing Board not' suggested that Applicants update its. discovery responses (see footnote L3; p.
2.of the Board's December 20, 1983 Menorandun and Order (OCRE Motion to l Reopen Discovery)), the docments would never have. been identified and produced.

Berefore the delay from October.1982 until May 2,1984 -is wholly attributable to Applicants, as.they failed to disclose and produce information that is ocmpletely within their-possession and control.. It is certainly not OCRE's fault' that Applicants failed to meet their discovery obligations.

Be delay from May 2 to the present was necessary for OCRE to evaluate the docments -(and other materials providing the necessary factual background g

for the evaluation). and to propound the attached interrogatories, as is required by the Board's Memorandum and Order (Motion to Ibopen Discovery) of February 28, 1984: 2 ".(i)n general, we will not rule on general requests to reopen discovery

~

unless they are accompanied by the interrogatories or questions to which answers

?are. sought" (p. 3).

S e need which OCRE has for the requested information is another con-tribution to the good cause rgirement. Without the information sought, OCRE will not be able to present its case on Issue #8 or to rebut Applicants' case.
