3 (Allens Creek Nuclear Generating ) g p Station, Unit 1) ) NRC STAFF RESPONSE TO VARIOUS SUBMISSIONS RECEIVED PURSUANT TO THE BOARD'S CORRECTED NOTICE OF INTERVENTION PROCEDURES At this Board's direction, a " Corrected Notice of Intervention Pro; cedures" was published in the Federal Register on September 11, 1978 l (43 FR 40328). Pursuant to that notice, submissions requesting the opportunity to participate in this proceeding were received from the following individuals and groups: Mr. D. Michael McCaughan Dr. Joe C. Yelderman Ms. Shirley Caldwell Ms. Kathryn Hooker q Mr. Robert S. Framson Ms. Patricia L. Day Carro Hinderstein Mr. David Marke Ms. Ann Wharton Ms. Madeline Bass Framson Mr. Emanuel Baskir Charles L. Michulka Mrs. R. M. Bevis Gregory Kainer Mr. F. H. Potthoff, III Ms. Lois H. Anderson Brenda A. McCorkle Mr. John V. Anderson Steven Gilbert, Esq. Mr. John Renaud, Jr. Mr. Jean-Claude De Bremaecker Mr. George Broze Mr. Brent Miller National Lawyers Guild Mr. Allen D. Clark Edgar Crane D. Marrack Mr. Lee Loe Mr. John R. Schreffler The Coninission's Rules of Practice provide for two methods of partici-pation in Commission proceedings. Under 10 CFR 52.714, individuals or groups may petition for leave to intervene as full parties to the case, 7811070/7,1

with all the rights and responsibilities attendant thereto. Under 10 CFR 62.715, persons may participate by making a " limited appearance statement," usually on the first day of the evidentiary hearing, in which they set forth their concerns with regard to the proposed facility. They may also raise questions which they would like answered, and the Board, if it deems the questions relevant to the proceeding, may order the Applicant and Staff to respond to them. With regard to all of the above submissions, except those of Mr. David Marke and the National Lawyers Guild, it is unclear whether the petitioners desire full party status pursuant to 10 CFR 92.714 or the opportunity to make a limited appearance statement pursuant to 10 CFR 52.715. The Staff's general impression from studying the petitions, and from telephone conversations with certain of the petitioners, is that many of the petitioners may prefer the latter alternative. The Staff, therefore, urges the Board to seek immediate clarification from the above individuals with regard to their intended form of parti-cipation in this proceeding. In any event, should any of these petitioners file contentions within the time limits specified in 10 CFR 62.714 (15 days before the special prehearing conference), the Staff will then address both standing and contentions. We will assume that those

I petitioner's who do not file contentions within the prescribed time , period intend to make a limited appearance statement. j The Staff, therefore, believes that the Board should defer ruling on the newly received petitions (except for those of Mr. Marke and the National Lawyers Guild) until the intentions of the respective peti-tioners are clarified. The petitions of Mr. Marke and the Guild will be addressed in separate pleadings. Respectfully submitted, Stephen M.
