OPPOSITION OF SUFFOLK COUNTY AND NEW YORK STATE-TO LILCO'S MOTION TO STRIKE PORTIONS OF NRC STAFF TESTIMONY OF JOHN L. KNOX AND' PORTIONS OF NRC STAFF JOINT TESTIMONY OF SPENCER H. BUSH, ET AL.

For the reasons discussed'below, Lilco's motion to strike portions

of the NRC Staff's testimony should be denied.

A.- Lilco' objects to the first and second full paragraphs'on page-

.six of the testimony of NRC Staff witness John L. Knox on the grounds that the testimony is unresponsive, unfounded and outside the scope

-of_the diesel generator load contention.

The testimony in issue' discusses the'EDGs' response during the ten'second plus time period afterLstarting in which their BMEP may.

be-greater than that curresponding to continuous electrical-loads-of-3300 kW. :On its face, Lilco's. claim that this testimony _is not responsive and outside the scope of subparagraph a(i) of the contention,

~

because it allegedly does:not concern intermittent or cyclic loads,is q

u-

y*

i w specious.

The testimony clearly appears to refer to short-time loading conditions similar to those discussed in Lilco's testimony relating.to c?clic and intermittent loads.

See, e.g., Diesel Generator Qualified Load Testimony of George F. Dawe, et al., at 11 (" Intermittent or cyclic loads are small loads that will operate only once or occasionally following a LOOP /LOCA event.

In either case, operation is for a short period of time."S.

Lilco also claims that this testimony requires expertise in mechanics, dynamics and thermodynamics which Mr. Knox allegedly does not possess.

There is no foundation in the record for this objection, and the entire issue is one more properly pursued on cross-examination.

B.

Lilco also objects to the one reference to Det Norske Veritas on page twenty-one of NRC Staff witness. Professor.Sarsten on the grounds that that reference is irrelevant and outside the scope of the contention.*/

To the contrary, the reference merely identifies the source and basis for the witness' calculation of stresses in the replacement crankshafts.

Every party is entitled to know the basis for the testimony of a witness, and the express reference to the basis in this instance merely aids the efficiency of the pro-

. ceeding by putting the parties on notice of that fact in advance of cross-examination.

Excluding the reference would impose a more

-*/

We do not understand Lilco to be objecting the remainder of the testimony, in which Professor Sarsten quantifies the stresses in the replacement crankshaft.

Such testimony clearly is relevant to the adequacy of the replacement crankshaft and also is the basis for portions of Dr. Bush's testimony relating to the conclusions to be drawn from the endurance test run.

See, e.g.,

Joint Testimony of Spencer H. Bush, et al., on Load contentions Concerning TDI Emergency Diesel Generators at the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station, at 17.

. stringent rule in' administrative proceedings than is applied in faderal civil proceedings.
