SUBJECT:

Seabrook operating license case:

onsite emeraency olannino and technical issues l

Dear Administrative Judges:

On behalf of the New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution (NECNP), I am notifying you that NECNP does not intend to liti-gate NECNP Contention I.V, on the adequacy of Applicants' program for in-service-inspection of steam generator tubing, or NECNP Contention IV,-to the extent that Contention IV relates to the adequacy of Applicants' program for monitoring to detect blockage of coolant flow resulting from the build-up of macro-biological organisms. Accordingly, NECNP will not file its own summary dis-position motion on these issues, nor will it oppose any summary disposition motions filed by Applicants or the Staff to the extent such motions address those issues.

NECNP's decision not to litigate these two Contentions is based on our review of the information and documents we have received to date as a result of discovery under Contentions I.V.

and IV. Our decision also stems from this Board's procedural rulings on NECNP Contention IV, which effectively preclude NECNP from inquiring into, or litigating the adequacy of Applicants' program to control microbiologically induced corrosion, ar.d other detrimental effects resulting from the accumulation of micro-biological organisms. NECNP continues to believe that Applicants' program for monitoring and controlling microbiologi-U p DD .

Accordingly, NECNP intends to appeal the' Board's rulings regarding the scope of NECNP Contention IV and allowable discovery thereunder at the appropriate time.

Counsel for the Staff and Applicants have been notified by telephone of the content of this letter.

Very truly yours, y Andrea Ferster Counsel for NECNP cc: onsite service list
