Seabrook Station Recertification Procedure Docket Nos, 50 Il43 and 50 tii.;4

Dear Mr. Dallard:

I received your letter concerning the above dated September 19, 1978.

If the Seabrook Station was required to be equipped with a closed cycle cooling system, recertification by the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee under RSA 162-F would be required.

However, the recertification proceeding would not necessarily deal with all issues which were previously considered.

Without attempting to analyne the record issue by issue, I am sure that a number of issues denit with at the initial hearing would not have to be reviewed.

However, I must add in the same breath that there are quite obviously a number of issues which would have.to be reviewed entirely.

It is difficult to estimate the amount of time necessary for such a review procedure.

However, the statute places a maximum evaluation time of sixteen (16) months.

P lt is difficult to answer your question,with regard to the information'which would have to accompany an application,in the abstract.

I think it is clear that any application would have to be accompanied by sufficient information to provide the public a fair opportunity to determine the nature of the proposed facility such that meaning;ful analysis and convnent could be made during the hearings.

While i realize that the above statement is not extremely helpful to you in your attempt to determine a specific time period of delay, it is difficult to M more precise without an issue by issue determination of which issues would be involved in the recertification proceeding.

In any event, it would appear that a complete re-engineering of the facility would not have to be accomplished prior to making an application.
