MOTION TO REVISE HEARING SCHEDULE Commonwealth Edison Company
(" Applicant") moves the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board
(" Board") to enter an order revising the hearing schedule in this proceeding in the manner set forth in Attachment A.
In support of its motion, Applicant states:
1.
The present hearing schedule, which was attached
~
to the Board's Order dated October 24, 1985, was based on a joint motion by Applicant, the NRC Staff and Intervenors Rorem, et al.
The joint motion set forth the need for additional time to permit discovery on Applicant's corrective action. programs, the results of which were not yet available.
Applicant has
.since submitted its. report on the Material Traceability Verifica-tion Progiam on November 15.
The reports on cafety-related equipment ("82-05") and on corroded pipe will be sent to the parties by January 13, 1986.
i 2.
The parties entered into negotiations during
(-
December, 1985 regarding additional revisions to the hearing B601130267 B60109 PDR ADOCK 05000456 9

ko I
i schedule.
Those negotiations, however, did not materialize into an agreed schedule.
A number of the dates established by
'~
'the existing schedule are no longer _ applicable because of the passage of time during the parties' negotiations.
3.
Applicant believes that the revised schedule fairly accommodates the needs of the parties to conclude discove ry and prepare for the hearing.
Discovery has now been
'open since July, 1985 and Applicant and Staff have responded to voluminous interrogatories, made thousands of documente available for inspection and copying and have participated in over 12 depositions, many of which have extended for more than
.one day.
4.
In view of Applicant's anticipated fuel load date of September 30, 1986, the revised schedule ensures an adequate amount of time for the Board to conduct evidentiary hearings, to consider the parties' proposea findings of fact and conclusions of law, and to prepare and issue its initial decision.
Applicant's motion for summary disposition encom-passed only 14 of the over 65 subcontentions in the Amended Quality Assurance contention and involved over 300 pages of testimony by over 20 witnesses.
Even assuming that Applicant is wholly successful in its motion for summary disposition, appropriate evidentiary consideration of the remaining subcon-tention items is going to be time-consuming.
Beginning the evidentiary hearings in accordance with the revised schedule 2
/" :'-,,s
- g.
Linsures that there will be adequate time to fully consider and decide'those issues.
ForLgood cause shown, Applicant's motion.for entry of a revised hearing schedule should be granted.
