In order to deal with the matter of the documents of which the Citizens Committee for the Protection of the Environment -has requested the Board-to take of ficial notice, as discussed at the hearing on November 12, 1971 (Tr. pp. 3839-3840); and (e)

In order to introduce evidence with respect to

^

the fire which occurred in the Primary Auxiliary Building on November 4,.1971.

In support of this motion Applicant states as follows:

1.

.The Commission's regulations require ~that

.pending the completion of theLenvironmental review for the Indian Point 2 plant, the Board' 8

  • t and the parties will proceed expeditiously with the hearing on radiological safety matters.

Pursuant to the Board's order dated September 17, 1971, an evidentiary hearing was convened on November 1, 1971 and was continued with brief recesses until November 17, 1971.

As required by the Board's order, the purpose of said-sessions-was "to conclude the hearing in this proceeding-in all respects possible".

2.

In accordance with the Stipulation dated Novenber 2, 1971, the Citizens Committee-for the t

Protection of-the Environment ("CCPE"), the only party opposing the issuance of a license for Indian Point 2 on the basis of radiological safety considerations, completed its evidentiary presentation as of November 17, 19 71, s ubj ect to the hearings being continued with respect to the matters listed above.

3.

The expeditious and orderly conduct of this hearing requires that schedules be established for t.

presentation of evidence and other matters, in-cluding interrogation.by the Board, _and be=

adhered to _ wherever possible.

Applicant and other parties have attempted to follow this 3

L

4 principle by executing the Ctipulation dated November 2, 1971.

Applicant will continue to attempt to reach agreement with other psrties to the proceeding in order to facilitate its conduct, as indicated by Applicant's letter 1

to the Board dated November 29, 1971.

4.

It is necessary for the Board to establish by order the extent to which the hearing han been comp 30ted with' regard to all matters in_ controversy and to limit further inquiry on radiologic.a1 safety mati.srs to those items, listed above, with respect -to which there has-not already been an adequate opportunity for an evidentiary-pre 7entation to be made.

_ issuance of-the cequested order by the' Boat, would clearly delineate those subjects with respect to which further evidentiary presentations could be made.

This would serve to put all parties on notice as to the nature of'any further hearings on radiological safety issues, as well as those matters which could not be reopened.

Such an order would also facilitate the efforts __of the parties to conclude post-bearing activities, such as-preparation of findings con-clusions and briefs. -The items listed above adequately protect the= rights of all ' parties and

further recognize the preper-role of the Board

{

in evaluating tbo ev:dence introduced to date.

6.

It is particularly important that the Board I

i l

issue the requested order because of the necessity-t-

l that this hearing be continued in order to deal with environmental issues pursuant to 10 CPR 50, 1

Appendix D.

The Doard should make it clear i

s by its order that-the duration of the hearing on s

environmental issues in no way opens the door to a prolongation of the hearing on radiological 1

i safety issues.
