j ORDER l i

Several months have elapsed since the Licensing Board I was last advised as to the status of this operating license proceeding. In the interim, the membership of the Board l.

has been changed (see 43 Fed. Reg. 46911, October 11, 1978;  ;

see also 42 Fed. Reg. 58583, November 10, 1977). ReNiect- l j

ing these circumstances, the Applicants are requested, at f their earliest convenience, to apprise this Board of:

1. The current progress of construction. l l

2. The currently projected fuel loading j date. (The last advice on this sub-3 ject in the record appears to be the l

Applicants' letter of March 20, 1978, advising that the fuel loading date 1 would be June, 1979; the Board wishes l "I 81130 0 35T

to be advised whether this date is l

still realistic.)

3. The approximate schedule which the Applicants seek for the hearing (as well as remaining prehearing matters). ,

^l

4. A summary description of (1) contentions heretofore accepted by the Licensing i Board, and (2) matters not the subject of contentions as to which the Board has directed that evidence be presented.

1 (In providing this description, the Applicants may wish to utilize the format which they followed in their letter of l October 20, 1977 to the parties; they may, if they choose, merely update that l l

letter and supplement it with a description of the other matters raised by the Board.)

5. Recommendations as to whether a further prehearing conference would be desirable.

Other parties are invited to respond to (or expand upon, as appropriate) the Applicants' submission. They I

a,- s m should do so within 15 days of their receipt of that sub-mission (except that the Staff may do so within 20 days of its receipt of the Applicants' submission).

The parties are also invited to comment on any addi-tional matters which they believe should be dealt with by the Board. Among other topics, the parties (and particularly 1 l

the Staff) are invited to comment on whether outstanding generic safety issues applicable to this reactor, if any, within the meaning the Appeal Board's decisions in Virginia l Electric and Power Co. (North Anna Nuclear Power Station, Un its 1 and 2), ALAB-491, 8 NRC (August 25,1978) and Gulf States Utilities Co. (River Bend, Units 1 and 2),

1 ALAB-444, 6 NRC 760 (1977), have been or will be satisfactorily  !

resolved (and, if so, in what manner).

1 IT IS SO ORDERED.

THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD designated to rule on petitions for leave to intervene.
