NEW ENGLAND COALITION ON NUCLEAR POLLUTION'S L PETITON FOR REVIEW OF ALAB-899 I. Introduction The New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollu-tion ("NECNP") hereby petitions for Commission review of ALAB-899 (August 23, 1988), in which the Appeal Board affirmed NECNP's t

appeal of the Licensing Board's dismissal of NECNP's Contention IV.1 l In discovery, NECNP presented Applicants with a series of [

interrogatories regarding the adequacy of Applicants' program to i detect and control "microbiologically induced corrosion," or "MIC," a form of biofouling by which microbiological organisms i i

i 1 NECNP Contention IV reads as follows: Conten* ion: The Applicant must 1stablish a survellance and maintenance program i

for the prevencion of the accumulation of mollusks, other aquatic organisms, and debris in cooling systems in order to satisfy the l

requirements of GDC 4, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, and 39, which I require the maintenance and inspection of reactor cooling sys-I tems. The design, construction and proposed operation of l Seabrook fail to satisfy these requirements.

l The basis of Contention IV, which is too lengthy to

( reproduce nere given the page limits, is quoted in full in ALAB-899, slip op. at 3-4.

accumulate in and corrode nuclear power plant cooling systems.

In response to NECNP's Second Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents to Applicants on NECNP Contention IV, dated December 23, 1987, Applicants objected to NECNP's questions on the ground that the literal language of NECNP Contention IV did not specifically identify MIC as an issue.2 NECNP then filed a motion to compel Applicants to respond to these questions, in which NECNP presented proof, in the form of NRC-sponsored studies,3 demonstrating that the literal language used in NECNP contention IV and bases placed Applicants on notice that the issue of "microbiological 1y induced corrosion" was encompassed by the contention.4 By order dated February 17, 1988, the Licensing Board denied NECNP's motion to compel, and ruled, inter alia, that the issue of "microbiologically induced corrosion" ("MIC")

is not within the scope of NECNP Contention IV. The Licensing 2 "Applicants' Responses to NECNP's Second Set of Inter-regatories and Request for Production of Documents to Applicants on NECNP Contention IV," filed January 14, 1988, at 2.

4 "NECNP's Motion to Compel Applicants to Respond to NECNP's Second Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production of Docu-ments on NECNP Contention IV," dated January 25, 1988. NECNP also moved to compel Applicants to respond to questions seeking information concerning possible biofouling and corrosion in "cir-culating water systems" at the Seabrook plant. NECNP's sub-sequent appeals encompassed these discovery rulings as well.

Board reasoned that "NUREG/CR-4724 wha issued some four years after Contention IV was proposed," and that NECNP cannot "expand the scope of the contention by reliance upon a document that did not exist at the time Contention IV was submitted."5 NECNP then sought and was granted leave to file a motion for reconsideration of the Licensing Board's February 17, 1988 order, which motion was filed by NECNP on March 1, 1988. In support or its motion, NECNP presented an expert affidavit from Dr. James Bryers, who testified that the scientific meaning of the literal terms of Contention IV encompassed the issue of microbiological 1y induced corrosion.6 In addition, NECNP submitted scientific studies contemporaneous to the admission of Contention IV demonstrating that, in 1982, microbiological 1y induced corrosion was recognized as one of the detrimental effects of biofouling of nuclear power plants. Both the Applicants and the NRC Staff filed responses opposing NECNP's motion, which urged the Licens-ing Board to disregard the expert affidavit of Dr. Bryers on the 5 Memorandum and Order of February 17, 1988 Denying NECNP's Motion to compel, (unpublishud) at 6-7.

6 NECNP's affiant, Dr. James Bryers, is a professor in the Cen-ter for Biochemical Engineering at Duke University, and is the author of over thirty publjshed articles in scientific journals and treatises on the subject of microbial fouling and its effects in engineered systems, including nuclear power plant heat-exchange systems. Dr. Bryers' affidavit and curriculum vitae are attached in support of the NECNP's appellate brief, as Exhibits A and B, for the convienence of the Commission.

ground that it was "unpersuasiver" however, they failed to pro-vida anX expert opinion or studies of their own controverting the voluminous material provided by NECNP.7 The Licensing Board then denied NECNP's motion for reconsideration, again on the grounds that "the opinion of Dr. Bryer (sic) and the appended scientific studies cannot serve to establish that, in preparing the conten-tion in 1982, the drafter intended to encompass MIC within the scope of the contention.n8 By letter dated April 22, 1988, NECNP notified the Licensing Board and the parties that it did not choose to litigate conten-tion IV due to the Licensing Board's restrictive rulings which precluded NECNP from litigating the adequacy of Applicants' pro-gram for controlling microbiologically induced corrosion. NECNP further stated that it intended to appeal the Licensing Board s rulings on the scope of NECNP Contention IV at the appropriate 7 "Applicant's Response to NECNP's Motion for Reconsideration of the Board's Order Denying NECNP's Motion to compel," dated March 14, 1988, at 3; "NRC Staff Reponse to NECNP Motion for Reconsideration of the Board's Denial of NECNP's Motion to Com-pol," dated March 11, 1988, at 5 n.3.

3. The Licensing Board denied NECNP's subsequent request for entry upon land, dated February 19, 1988, on the ground that it concerned the impermissible issue of MIC, ASLB Memorandum and Order (unpublished), dated March 18, 1988, at 4-5. The Board also denied NECNP's March 22, 1988, motion to compel Applicants to answer interrogatories regarding MIC at Seabrook on the ground that it was untimely, and because it concerned matters not within the scope of NECNP Contention IV.

dated April 1, 1988.

I time. On May 12, 1988, in reaction to this letter, the Licensing a

Board dismissed NECNP Contention IV as "abandoned." NECNP filed a notice of appeal on June 1, 1988, along with a motion for leave to file the notice of appeal out of time. The Appeal Board, in A LAD-8 9 4 , granted NECNP's motion.9 On August 23, 1988, in ALAB-899, the Appeal Board affirmed the Licensing Board's dismissal of Contention IV.

II. Reasons ALAB-899 Should Be Reversed The Appeal Board made several errors in concluding that contention IV encompassed only "blockage" of reactor coolant systems and not degradation caused by microbiological 1y induced corrosion. First, the language of the contention, which refers to the "accumulation of mollusks, other aquatic organisms, and debris in cooling systems," logi-cally embraces the effects of such "accumulation," including both blockage and corrosion.10 The scope of the contention is determined by the language of the contention itself, and not by the contention's title.ll 9 ALAB-894, 10 contrary to the Appeal Board's implication (slip op. at 9),

these effects are not mutually exclusive. It would be perfectly possible, for example, for blockage to occur at the same time that corrosive effects took place.

11 The Appeal Board also errs in relying for its conclusion on NECNP's statements at an oral argument, in which counsel referred to blockage of cooling tunnels to illustrate a point about whether the Seabrook cooling tunnels constitute the reactor's ultimate heat sink. Obviously, this colloquoy did not squarely raise the issue of the scope of the contention,

i J. . .Z ..~ . 'ZE.~

The Appeal Board also incorrectly found that Contention IV lacked specificity with respect to the issue of microbiologically induced corrosion. A contention need only be specific enough to put other parties on notice so that they will know what to defend against or oppose, and to assure that the proposed issues are proper for adjudication. Philadelchia Electric co.. (peach Botton Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3), ALAB-216, 8 AEC 13, 20 (1974). The fact that the basis o.f Contention IV fails to spe-cifically use the technical term "MIC" cannot preclude litigation of that issue, as that would establish "secretive and complex technicalities" not intended by the basis and specificity requirements of 10 C.F.R. I 2.714(b). Id. The basis of Conton-tion IV refers, inter alia, to dbuildup of fouling organisms" and "fouling by aquatic organisms." As demonstrated in affidavits filed cofore the Licensing Boardl2, these terms are adequate to place Applicants on notice that they encompass the concept of microbiological 1y induced corrosion.

The Appeal Board did not reach a number of other issues raised in NECNP's appeal. First, the Licensing Board wholly dis-regarded the voluminous expert and scientific evidence presented by NECNP that the literal language of Contention IV encompassed 12 See Note 18, infra.

w . a-ii.. ... _ . .. . . . - . .. .. . .. . - . . . . v...

the issue of microbiologically induced corrosion.13 Instead, the Licensing Board created an entirely novel standard which seeks to determine NECNP's "intent" when its contention was formulated.

However, it is well-esablished that the scope of a contention is controlled by an objective standard -- the "literal language" of the contention. Carolina Power and Licht Co. (Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant) , ALAB-852, 24 NRC 532, 545 (1986).

Second, the Licensing Board erred in ruling that NECNP's February 19, 1988 request for entry upon land was outside the scope of the discovery period. The language used in the Licens-ing Board's December 2, 1987 Scheduling Order implied that Febru-ary 19, 1988 was the last date on which reauests for discovery may be served. The Board's Scheduling order did not provide a 1

separato deadline by which discovery requests must be served and received. Past NRC practico in the Seabrook proceeding has con-sistently been that the date by which discovery is to be closed has meant the date on which the last discovery request must be 13 NECNP presented uncontroverted evidence that microbiologi-cally induced corrosion was recognized as one of the detrimental effects of biofouling as early as 1977, five years prior to the formulation of NECNP Contention IV. Bryers' Affidavit, at 9; Egg also Norman, G., Characklis, W.G., and Bryers, J.D., "Control of Microbial Fouling in Circular Tubes with Chlorine," 18 Devel-ooment in Industrial Microbioloav, pp. 581-590 (1977), excerpt attached to NECNP's appellate brief as Exhibit E.

filed.14 Where a Licensing Board has intended to impose on parties a specific deadline by which the last discovery response must be received, and depositions must be taken, it has done so explicitly.15 Finally, the Licensing Board erred in denying NECNP's motion to compel Applicants to respond to questions seeking information concerning possible biofouling and corrosion in all "circulating water systems" at the Seabrook plant, on the ground that NECNP Contention IV only concerned "cooling systems."16 These dis-covery requests were entirely permissible.

It is well established that "In modern administrative and les al practice, pretrial discovery is liberally granted to enable the parties to ascertain the facts in complex litigation, refine the issues, and prepare adequately for a more expeditious hearing or trial." Pacific Gas and Electric Co. (Stanislaus Nuclear Pro-ject, Unit 1, LBP-78-20, 7 NRC 1038, 1040 (1978). In this regard, interrogatories need only have "general relevance, for discovery purposes, to the matters in controversy in the proceed-14 "Memorandum & Order - Establishing Hearing Schedule on Offsite Issues Raised By NHRERP," ASLBP No. 82-471-02-OL, dated December 4, 1986; "Memorandum and Order," ASLPBP No. 82-471-02 OL, dated September 13, 1982.

t Here, NECNP sought information about other systems in order i I

to determine the extent to which microbiological 1y induced corro-f sion has occurred and is adeqttately treated in general at .

Seabrook. These interrogatories seeking information about other systems are designed to lead to information that is relevant to l NECNP's Contention IV, which concerns the adequacy of Applicants' surveillance and maintenance pro' gram for the prevention of micro-  !

biologically induced corrosion in cooling systems. The presence  ;

of corrosion in other circulating water systems may well indicate that corrosion may occur in cooling systems. If corrosion has  !

occurred in other circulating water systems, it is necessary to determine whether Applicants have a program designed to prevent or control corrosion in these systems. Obviously, if Applicants' [

responses showed that these programs are the same as the programs used to prevent or control corrosion in cooling syetems, this may l l

be admissible evidence that such programs are also not adequate l r

to treat or control corrosion in cooling systems. Accordingly, [

these interrogatories were clearly "relevant to the subject mat- '

ter involved in the proceeding...(or which) appears reasonably  ;

calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence." 10  !

C.F.R. 5 2.740(b) (1) . I III. Reasons the Commission Should Take Review of ALAB-892 The  !

Commission should take review of this petition because it raises

(.; . . . . . .. . . .~ . . .. . . . . - . . . , , . . . u.. . - ... _, .c._. .

i both significant safety issues and important questions of Commis-sion practice and policy. First, the integrity of the Seabrook reactor coolant systems is of paramount significance to the safe operation of the plant. In their Supplemental Response to NECNP's Second Set of Interrogatories to Applicants on NECNP Con-tantion IV, Applicants, revealso that MIC has been discovered in seabrook cooling systems. Thus, this petition poses very real, and not just speculative, concerns about the p,otential effects of microbiological 1y induced corrosion on cooling systems at Seabrook.

Second, both the Appeal Board and the Licensing Board com-mitted fundamental legal error with respect to the application of the Commission's standards for the admissibility of contentions.

These errors, if allowed to stand, could have profound and adverse effects on the public's right to participate in NRC licensing proceedings. For these reasons, the Commission should grant review of this petition for review.

NEW ENGLAND COALITION ON NUCLEAR POLLUTION'S BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF'ITS APPEAL OF THE LICENSING ggARD'S DISMISSAL OF NECNP CONTENTION IV I. INTRODUCTION The instant appeal concerns the Licensing Board's March 18, 1988, ruling which limited the scope of NECNP Contention IV1 to only one of the adverse affects of the accumulation of aquatic organisms in cooling systems, namely, the accumulation of macro-organisms resulting in blockage and constriction of coolant flow.

As a result of this ruling, as well as other Licensing Board rulings constricting the time and type af allowable discovery for this contention, NECNP was precluded from inquiring into, or litigating, the adequacy of Applicants' program to monitor and 1 NECNP Contention IV reads as follows: The Applicant must establish a survellance and maintenance proaram for the preven-tion of the accumulation of mollusks, other aquatic organisms, and debris in cooling systems in order to satisfy the require-ments of GDC 4, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, and 39, which require The the maintenance and inspection of reactor cooling systems.

design, construction and proposed operation of Seabrook fail to satisfy these requirements.

BACKGROUND On March 25, 1987, the Licensing Board iscued a Partial Ini-tial Decision ("PID") which authorizes Public Service Co. of New Hampshire ("Applicants") to operate the Seabrook nuclear power plant at power levels up to and , including 5% of rated power.2 NECNP appealed that decision on the merits, arguing, intar alia, that the Licensing Board had wrongly denied NECNP Contention IV.

On October 1, 1987, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Board (the "Appeal Board") issued ALAB-875, reversing and remanding in part the March 25, 1987 Licensing Board decision authorizing a low power license for Seabrook. The Appeal Board ordered, 1paer alia, that the Licensing Board admit two of NECNP's contention concerning protection against steam generator tube ruptures (NECNP Contention I.V.) and potential degrading of the plant's heat removal capability due to build-up of biological organisms (NECNP Contention IV), and begin the litigation process fcr these improperly rejected contentions.3 Discovery upon the remandad 2 Public Service Co. of New Hamoshire. et al.

corrosion" was encompassed by the contention.7 By Order dated February 17, 1988, the Lic.nsing Board denied Ni:CNP's motion to compel, and ruled, ja'Jg alia, that the issue of "microbiologi-cally induced corroston" ("MIC") is not wichin the scope of*NECNP Contention IV. Thr. Licensing Board reasoned that "NUREG/CR-4724 was issued some four years after Contention IV was proposed,'4 and that NECNP cannot "expand the scope of the contention by reliance upon a document that did not exist at the time contention IV was submitted.n8 NECNP then sought and was granted leave to file a motion for reconsideration t:f the Licensing Board's February 17, 1988 Order, which motion was filed by NECNP on March 1, 1988. In support of its motion, NECNP presented an expert affidavit from Dr. Cames Bryers, who testified that the scientific meaning of the literal terms of Contention IV encompassed the issue of microbiologically 7 "NECNP's Motion to compel Applicents to Respond to NECNP's Second Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production NECNP of Docu-monts on NECNT :ontention IV," dated January 25, 1988.

also moved to compel Applicants to respond to questions seeking information concerning possible biofouling and corrosion in "cir-culating water systems" at the Seabrook plant. Applicants had refused to provide this information with respect to all circulat-ing water systems which Applicants claim are not "cooling sys-tems" based on their view that "Issues cor.:erning circulating water systems generally are outside the scope of Contention IV."

induced corrosion.9 In addition, NECNP submitted scientific studies contemporaneous to the admission of Contention IV demonstrating that, in 1982, microbiological 1y induced corrosion was recognized as one of the detrimental effects of biofouling of

  • nuclear power plants.10 Both the Applicants and the NRC-Staff filed responses opposing NECNP's motion, wh,4.ch urged the Licens . ;

ing Board to disregard the expert affidavit of Dr. Bryers on the ground that it was "unpersuasive;" however, they failed to pro-vide any, expert opinion or studies of their own controvercir.g the voluminous material provided by NECNP.11 The Licensing Board then denied NECNP's motion for reconsideration, again on the grounds that "the opinion of Dr. Bryer (sic) and the appended scientific studies cannot serve to establish that, in preparing the contention in 1982, the drafter intended to encompass MIC within the scope of the contention."12 9 NECNP's affiant, Dr. James Bryers, is a professor in the Cen-ter for Biochemical Engineering at Duke University, and is the author of over thirty published articles in scientific journals and treatises on the subject of microbial fouling and its effects in engineered systems, including nuclear power plant heat-  !

On February 19, 1988, NECNP filed a request for entry upon land for inspection and the taking of notes, samples and photog-raphs at Seabrook in the areas containing piping and heat-exchangers that are susceptible to biofouling or microbiologi-cally induced corrosion, and in laboratories where testing for biofouling or microbiological 1y induced corrosion is performed. .

The Licensing Board denied NECNP's request on the ground that it was untimely, and because it concerned matters not within the scope of NECNP Contention IV.13 /

On March 22, 1988, NECNP filed a motion to compel Applicants to respond to NECNP's Third Set of Interrogatories and Request for production of documents to Applicants on NECNP Contention IV, which were served on February 19, 1968. The Licensing Board denied this motion, again, on the ground that the issue of micro-biologically induced corrosion vs.s not encompassed within the scope of NECNP Contention IV.14 By letter dated April 22, 1988, NECNP notified the Licensing Board and the partios that it did r.ot choose to litigate the Con-tention IV due to the Licensing Board's restrictive rulings which precluded NECNP frc a litigating the adequacy of Applicants' pro-gram for controlling microbiologically induced corrosion. NECNP further stated that it intended to appeal the Licensing Board's 13 ASLB Memorandum and Order (unpublished), dated March 13, 1988, at 4-5.

rulings ca the scope of NECNP Contention IV at the appropriate time. On May 12, 1988, in reaction to this letter, the Licensing Boarddismissed NECNP Contention IV as "abandoned." NECNP filed a notice of cppeal on June 1, 1988, along with a motion for leave to file the notice of appeal out of time. The Appeal Board, in ALAB-894, granted NECNP's dotion.16 III. THE LITERAL LANGUAGE OF CONTENTION IV ENCOMPASSES THE ISSUE OF "MICROBIOLOGICALLY INDUCED CORROSION" AND OTHER DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS OF "FOULING" OF COOLING SYSTEMS.

It is important, at the outset, to understand the scientific definitions of the phenomenon of "biofouling" and "microbiologi-cally induced corrosion," and the scientific meaning of the terms employed in NECNP Contention IV. NECNP Contention IV asserts simply that "the Applicant must establish a surveillance and maintenance program for the prevention of the accumulation of mollusks, other aquatic organisms, and debris in cooling sys-tems..." This contention does not specifically identify the problem as either "fouling" or "biofouling," nor does it identify any of the detrimental effects of this process. However, this language in fact broadly identifies the process commonly known as "fouling," which has a number of detrimental effects, including blockage, ccastriction and/or mechanical deterioration of the 15 A LAD-8 94 .

operating characteristics of valves and pumps, fluid resistance, and corrosion.16 The Licensing Board determined that NECNP Contention IV was limited to only one particular detrimental effect of fouling, that of blockaae of piping in heat exchange systems, which is generall'y caused by the build-up of macro-organisms (such as clams and mussels) and debris on the inside of piping, resulting in the degradation of heat removal capability of cooling water systems. In reaching this conclusion, the Licensing Board appropriately relied on the literal language of the contention, which referred to "the accumulation of mollusks, other aquatic organisms, and debris."17 However, the Licensing Board erred in reaching.the conclusion the word "accumulation" was intended to refer only to the detrimental effect of blockage caused by foul-ing. Rather, the term "accumulaulon" clearly refers to the pro-cess of fouling itself, which is the accumulation of organisms 16 Egg Bryers' Affadivit, Exhibit A, at 7; aan also Bryers, J.D., Characklis, W.G., Zelver, N., and Nimmons, M.G., "Microbial Film Development and Associated Energy Losses," at 12.14-1, Paper No. 12-15 presented at the Proc. 6th OTEC Conference, "Ocean June 19-20, Thermal Energy for the '80's," Washington, D.C.,

i 1979, which defines "fouling" as follows:

The term fouling refers to the formation of inorganic and/or organic deposits on surfaces. In cooling systems, these deposits form on condenser tube walls increasing fluid fric-tional resistance, accelerating corrosion and impairing heat transfer.

(both macro and micro) and debris on pipes. The accumulation of macro-organisms can cause blockage, and the accumulation of biofilms on heat-exchange systems can ultimately interact with bacteria to cause the phenomenon of microbiological 1y induced corrosion.18 Thus, the use of the word "accumulation" in the Contention reinforces a broad, rather than limited construction of Contention IV.

It is well settled that a party is bound by the literal terms of its own contention.

(Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant), ALAB-852, 24 NRC 532, 545 18 Perhaps the clearest explanation of the process, and dif-forent types of fouling, appears in a 1981 article by W.G.Characklis, entitled "Bioengineering Report -- Fouling Biofilm Development: A Process Analysis:"

The term fouling refers to the formation of inorganic and/or organic deposits on surfaces. These deposits can impede the flow of heat across the surface, increase the fluid frictional resistance at the surface, and increase the rate of corrosion at the surface. In any case energy losses result.

Several types of fouling and their combinations may occur in heat exchangers: 1) crystalline or precipitation fouling, 2) corrosion fouling, 3) particulate fouling, 4) chemical reaction fouling, and 5) biological fouling.

Biological fouling results from a) development of a biofilm consisting of microorganisms and their products (microbial fouling), b) deposition and growth of macroorganisms such as barnacles (macrobial fouling), and c) assorted detritus.

  • e (1986). Here, the literal terms of the contention broadly identify the process of fouling, which has a number of detrimen-tal effects, including microbiologically induced corrosion.

Accordingly, microbiologically induced corrosion is within the scope of NECNP Contention IV.

  • The Licensing Board, in part, apparently based its decision on the fact NECNP Contention IV did not specifically identify the issues of "biofouling" or "microbiological 1y induced corrosion."

However, a contention need only be specific enough to put other 4 parties on notice so that they wil1 know what to defend against or oppose, and to assure that the proposed issues are proper for adjudication. Philadelchia Electric Co. (Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3), ALAB-216, 8 AEC 13, 20 (1974).

The fact that the contention fails to identify specifically the issues encompassed by the contention by their technical names cannot precludo litigation of thora issues, as that would e. stab-e

Here, NECNP Contention IV, by broadly identifying the pro-cess of f _Aing of nuclear power plant heat-exchange systems, clearly put Applicants on notice that the contention encompassed all the detrimental effects of this process, including micro-biologically induced corrosion. Thus, the issue of nicrobiologi- ,

cally induced corrosion was identified with sufficient i specificity to satisfy the pleading requirements of 10 C.F.R. 5 2.714(b).20 IV. THE LICENSING BOARD ACTED ARBITRARILY AND CAPRICIOUSLY IN RESTRICTING THE SCOPE'OF NECNP CONTENTION IV.

A. The Licensing Board Applied an Incorrect Legal Standard in Determining the Scope of NECNP Contention IV.

As noted above, the scope of a contention is defined by the literal tprms of the contention. Carolina Power and Licht Co.

(Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant), ALAB-852, 24 NRC 532, 545 .

(1986). However, the Licensing Board wholly disregarded the t

t voluminous expert and scientific evidence presented by NECNP that the literal language of contention IV encompassed the issue of microbiologically induced corrosion. Instead, the Licensing 20 While microbiologically induced corrosion is not specifically discussed in the bases for the contention, the bases for a con-tention cannot be relied on to alter the contention's actual lan-Texas Utilties Co. (Comanche Peak 9 team Electric Station, guage.

Unit 1), 25 NRC 912, 932 n. 83 (1987). And, as noted above, the contention's literal language was sufficient to identify the issue of microbiologically induced corrosion. Likewise, the use of the word "blockage" in the caption of NECNP Contention IV can-not be construed as limiting the scope of the contention to only ,

that detrimental effect of fouling, to the exclusion of others.

Like the interpretion of statutes, titles or captions cannot be used to alter or vary the plain meaning of provisions. Eas e.a.

Board created an entirely novel standard which seeks to determine

?

NECNP's "intent" when its contention was formulated. Applying this new standard, the Licensing Board determined that NECNP did not "intend" for its contention to' encompass the issue of micro

  • biologically induced corrosion in 1982, when the contention was first formulated.

This subjective standard for determining the scope of a con-tention is without any support in past NRC precedent.21 Further, it is flatly contradicted by the nunerous cases setting forth an obiective test for determining the scope of a contention, namely, that the literal language employed by the contention controls.

More importantly, the subjective standard applied by the Licensing Board runs contrary to the principle purpose of 10 C.F.R. 5 2.714(b), which is to provide notice to Applicants of so that they will know what to defend against or oppose. Philadel-chia Electric Co. (Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3), ALAB-216, 8 AEC 13, 20 (1974). Indeed, as the Limerick case 21 Ironically, the Licensing Board was forced to confine its search for "NECNP's then (1982) intent" to the language and basis of the contention itself, since this contention was wrongly rejected by the Board at the outset, thereby precluding any opportunity to develop this contention. As noted above, the litoral language of the contention itself encompasses the issue of microbiologically induced corrosion.

cited above recognizes, it would be fundamentally unfair to Applicants if subjective intent could be used to guide litigation of contentions and to protect Applicants from surprises.

Indeed, NECNP presented evidence that microbiologically induced corrosion was recognized as one of the detrimental effects of biofouling as early as 1977, five years prior to the ,

formulation of NECNP Contention IV.22 Thus, the literal language of the contention was sufficient to provide adequate notice to Applicants that microbiologically induced corrosion was one of the issues to be litigated within the scope of NECNP Contention IV in 1982, when the contention was drafted, as well as in 1987

-- the more relevant time period -- when the contention was actually admitted and litigation begun. Despite the fact that this evidence was uncontroverted, the Licensing Board disregarded this evidence, again on the premise that these studies did not indicate what NECNP "intended" in preparing the contention in 1982.23 Clearly, the focus should not be on what NECNP "intended" but on whether Applicants objectively had adequate notice. We submit that the literal language of the contention provided this notice.

l Moreover, the facts here show that NECNP did intend that microbiologically induced corrosion be encompassed within the scope of its contention. This intent is apparent in the conten-tion's literal language, which broadly identified the issue of fouling, and in NECNP discovery requests, in which NECNP con-

  • sistently sought to acquire information about the Applicants' program to control microbiologically induced corrosion. The Licensing Board erred in basing its finding of NECNP's "1982 intent" on the very general information provided to satisfy the basis and specificity requirements of 10 C.F.R. $ 2.714(b), and in ignoring the more persuasive evidence of NECNP's intent con-sistently evidenced in NECNP's discovery requests and pleadings, which were filed as soon as NECNP was permitted to litigate the contention. Again, to confine the search for NECNP's "intent" to snly those documents filed in 1982, and to ignore the clear evi-dence of NECNP's intent contained in its discovery requests, would unfairly penalize NECNP for the Licensing Board's action in wrongly rejecting the contention at the outset.

l B. The Licensing Board Erred in Ruling Contrary to the i Uncontroverted Expert Affidavit and Scientific Studies i

Provided by NECNP.

In addition to applying an incorrect legal standard, the Licensing Board erred in disregarding the expert affidavit and scientific studies presented by NECNP. NECNP presented an expert affidavit from Dr. James Bryers, one of the nation's foremost experts on the issue of microbiological 1y induced corrosion and l

fouling of heat-exchange systems, who stated that the literal l

language of the contention encompassed the issue of microbiologi-cally induced corrosion,24 and that the problem of corrosion in engineered systems caused by the interaction between micro-organisms and biofilms on pipe-liquid surfaces was recognized by the scientific community as early as 1977.25 Neither the Applicants nor the Staff offered any controverting affidavits or studies. Rather, Applicants rested merely on the bald assertions of counsel that Dr. Bryers' testimony is "unpersuasive;n26 and the NRC Staff merely stated, again without submitting any con-troverting evidence or expert opinion, that Dr. Bryers' opinion "is entitled to little, if any weight.n27 Despite the absence of any controverting evidence, the Licensing Board disregarded Dr.

Bryers' testimony. The Licensing Board's ruling was based on its view that Dr. Bryers' statements, by necessity made six years after the contention was formulated, "cannot serve to establish that, in preparing the contention in 1982, the drafter intended 24 Bryers' Affidavit, at 5.

to encompass MlC within the scope of the contention."28 Where expert opinion evidence is submitted by only one side, as is the came here, an agency may disregard it only under three circumstances: where the agency possesses the expertise to'sub-stitute its judgment in the place of the experts'; where their is ,

e contrary evidence already in the record; and where the expert's j testimony has minimum credibility. Stein, Mitchell, and Mazines, l Administrative Law, 5 28.06 (Mathew-Bender, 1987). None of these circumstances is present here.

First,'the issue at hand involves the interpretation of technical, scientific terms used in the field of microbiology and 4

biochemical engineering, which is not an area in which the Com-mission pessesses expertise.

Where the testimony of a witness is in an area in which.the agency lacks knowledge or technical skill, it may not arbitrarily substitute its judgment for that of an export witness. Culler v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, 237 F.2d 611, 616 (8th Cir. 1956).  !

Second, there was no contrary evidence in the record, other j than the unsupported "lay' opinion of Applicants' and the Staf f's legal counsel. Finally, as noted above, Dr. Bryors is one of the i

28 ASLB Memorandum and order (unpublished), dated March 18, .

1988, at 3. This reasoning is particularly ironic, in light of the fact that Dr. Bryors' "post hag" interpretation of this Con-tantion is noconsitated by the fact that the contention was wrongfully dismissed at an earlier stage in this proceeding. To disallow export opinion as to the scientific meaning of the plain langaugo of the Contention because it could not, duo to an orror not of NECNP's making, be mado contemporaneously, is blatantly unfair and prejudicial to NECNP.

1 country's foremost experts on the subject of the effects of biological fouling on engineered safety systems. His opinion as to the meaning and scope of the plain language of NECNP Conten-

  • tion IV is clearly entitled to great weight.29 Accordingly, the Licensing Board abused its discretion in ruling contrary to the uncontroverted and entirely credible evidence presented by NECNP that microbiologically induced corrosion was within the scope of NECNP Contention IV.

V. THE LICENSING BOARD ERRED IN DISALLOWING NECNP'S DISCOVERY REQUEST SERVED PRIOR TO THE TIME DISCOVERY CLOSED.

The Licensing Board denied NECNP's Motion for Leave to Enter Applicants' Land, filed on February 19, 1988, and its alternative motion to extend the deadline for discovery,30 on two grounds:

first, th'at the motion sought discovery on matters not within the scope of NECNP Contention IV; and second, that the motion was untimely.31 This ruling was in error on both counts.

29 While Dr. Bryers' opinion as to "the scope of NECNP Conton-tion IV" is, admittedly, the ultimate issue of this casa, Dr.

Bryors' expert opinion of the technical, scientific meaning of the terms used in the contention, and his expert opinion as to the range of detrimental offects that are caused by the process referred to in the contention, are entirely appropriate and admissible.

First, as noted above, microbiological 1y induced corrosion and biofouling are within the scope of NECNP Contention IV.

Therefore, NECNP's motion was clearly "relevant to the subject matter involved in the' proceeding...[and) appears reasonably cal-culated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence." 2.0 C. F. 5 2.740(b) (1) .

  • Second, the language used in the Licensing Board's December 2, 1987 Scheduling Order implied that February 19, 1988 was the last date on which reauests for discovery may be served. The Board's Scheduling Order did not provide a separate deadline by which discovery requests must be served and received. Past NRC practice in the Seabrook proceeding has consistently been that the date,by which discovery is to be closed has meant the date on which the last discovery request must be filed.32 Rather, where a Licensing Board has intended tc impose on parties a specific deadline by which the last discovery response must be received, and depositions must be taken, it has done so explicitly.33 NECNP relied in good faith on the Board's previous practice of providing explicit guidelines and deadlines in such instances where it intended for the deadline for service of discovery requests to be different and earlier from deadline for completion 32 "Memorandum & Order - Establishing Hearing Schedule on Offsite Issues Raised By NHRERP," ASLDP No. 82-471-02-OL, dated December 4, 1986; "Memorandum and order," ASLPBP No. 82-471-02 OL, dated September 13, 1982.

Given the serious consequences in terms of NECNP's ability to effectively litigate the important, remanded safety issue of NECNP Contention IV, and the reasonable-ness of NfCNP's reliance on past practice regarding discovery schedulir.g, the Board should have allowed NECNP's motion, or granted NECNP's request in the alternative for an extension of the discovery deadline.

VI. THE LICENSING BOARD ERRED IN DISALLOWING DISCOVERY INTO CIR-CULATING WATER SYSTEMS THAT WERE NOT "COOLING SYSTEMS."

The Licensing Board also erred in denying NECNP's motion to compel Applicants to respond to questions seeking information concerning possible biofouling and corrosion in all "circulating water systems" at the Seabrook plant, on the ground that NECNP Contention IV only concerned "cooling systems."34 These dis-covery requests were entirely permissible.

It is well established that "In modern administrative and legal practice, pretrial discovery is liberally granted to enable the parties to ascertain the facts in complex litigation, refine 34 "NECNP's Motion to Compel Applicants to Respond to NECNP's Second Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production of Docu-monts on NECNP Contention IV," dated January 25, 1988, at 4-5.

Here, NECNP sought information about other systems in order to determine the extent to which microbiological 1y induced corro-sion has occurred and is adequately treated in general at Seabrook. These interrogatories seeking information about other systems are designed to lead to information that is relevant to NECNP's Contention IV, which concerns the adequacy of Applicants' surveillance and maintenance program for the prevention of micro-biologically induced corrosion in cooling systems. The presence of corrosion in other circulating water systems may well indicate that corrosion may occur in cooling systems. If corrosion has occurred in other circulating water systems, it is necessary to determine whether Applicants have a program designed to prevent or control corrosion in these systems. obviously, if Applicants' responses showed that these programs are the same as the programs used to prevent or control corrosion in cooling systems, this may be admissible evidence that such programs are also not adequate to treat or control corrosion in cooling systems. Accordingly, these interrogatories were clearly "relevant to the subject mat-ter involved in the proceeding...(or which) appears reasonably

calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence." 10 C.F.R. 5 2.740(b) (1) .

VII. CONCLUSION For the foregoirig reasons, the Licensing Board's erred in raling that microbiologically induced corrosion was not within the scope of NECNP Contention IV, and by restricting the time and.

type of allowable discovery under this contention. Therefore, the Licensing Board's decisions of February 17, 1988, March 18, 1988, and April 1, 1988, should be reversed.

AFFIDAVIT OF DR. JAMES BRYERS r

I, James _Bryers, being on oath, depose and say as follows:

1. I an a Professor in the Center for diochemical l Engineering at Duke University. My curriculum vitae, which I, describes my academic and professional experience, publications, and research, is attached hereto as Exhibit B. *
2. My area of expertise in the field of chemical I

engineering is in the physical, chemical and biological processes l governing biofilm formation, and the detrimental effects of these biofilms in engineered systems, incitding nuclear power plant heat-exchangers. .

3. I have reviewed the text and bases of contention IV, f "Blockage of Coolant Flow to Safety-Related Systems and Com-ponents by Buildup of Biological Organisms," sponsored by New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution ("NECNP") in the above-captioned proceeding. It is my opinion that, while contention  !,

IV's identification of the problem as "the accumulation of mol-lusks and other aquatic organisms in reactor cooling systems" f does not specifically identify any particular type or detrimental f

.egyb'l 9 ]{

. , . w.....a,...-.. a - - . = - . - - - - - - - . - - - - - . .. .. . .

.m. .

effect or' fouling, it broadly identifies the pro 7ess of fouling.

4. The term "fouling" refers to the formation of inorganic and/or organic deposits on surfaces, and includes that ,

form of fculing caused by the attachment of macro-organisms and particulate matter ~on pipe-liquid interfaces, and corrosion foul-ing, resulting from the interaction of biological organisms and biofilms or slime layers on surfaces. "Microbiologically induced corrosion," also referred to as "microbiologically mediated cor-rosion," is one detrimental effect of fouling, which "tn be caused by the interaction between aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and biofilms in pipe-liquid interfaces.

5. It is my opinion that, because the identification of the issue.in NECNP Contention IV broadly identifies the' process that causes "fouling" and "corresion," microbiological 1y induced corrosion is within the scope of this Contention.
6. "Biofouling" refers to fouling that results from the development of a biofilm consisting of of microorganims and their products (microbial fouling), the deposition and growth of macro-organisms sr.ch as barnacles (macrobial fouling), and the accumulation of assorted detritus. Biofouling can be very extensive, even with very minute levels of biofilm, sirilarly, flow or heat inefff.ciencies can occur even with minute coverage of fouling organisms on surfaces.
7. There are several detrimental effects of biofouling in heat-exchange systems. Ono effect is blockage of cooling sys-tems, and subsequent impairment of the system's heat transfer

capabilities. Blockage can be caused by the accumulation of macro-organisms (mussels, barnacles). Another detrimental effect of fouling is contriction and/or mechanical deterioration of the  !

ops:2 ting characteristics of valves and pumps, which is cause

  • by 7 the accumulation of a biofilm or "slime" on pipe-liquid inter- ,

faces.. Another detrimental effect of fouling is fluid fric- '

tional resistance, whereby fluid as pumped ineffeciently through ,

pipes. Finally, corrosion and degradation of pipes and heat-i exchange systems, as a result of the accumulation of micro- i organisms (microbial fouling) on surfaces, f 1 8. The identification of microbiologically induced corro- 9 sion can be seen in Contention IV's use of two words - "aquatic [

organisms," and "accumulation." The term "aquatic crganisms" j

3 refers both to macro-organism such as mussels, clams, and other j bivalves and bivalve larvae, ar.< micro-organisms, including 4

aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. "Accumulation" is used in the i bio-chemistry field to refer to the accumulation of biofilms on  !

I heat.-exchange systems, which are the result of aerobic or I f

anaerobic bacteria depositions, as well as the accumulation of

macroorganisms. 133 3ryers, J.D., Characklis, W.G., Ze'ver, N.,

and Nimmons, M.G., "Microbial Film Development and Associated l

Energy Losses," at 12.14-1, Paper No. 12-15 presented at the Proc. 6th OTEC Conference, "Ocean Thermal Energy for the '

80's,"

t Washington, D.C., June 19-20, 1979. This detrimental biofilm or slime can ultimately interacts with bacteria to cause corrosion of heat-exchangers. Thus, "the accumulation of aquatic 1

s nr -t*- wat== e- at-s----------m*-- w-w-w w --rw-wr we 7me-- v-*--- - , - = - - - - --

,:o.

-4 -

organisms" refers equally to the accumulation of microorganisms and the formation of biofilms, as well as the accumulation of macroorganisms.

9. The problem of corrosion in engineered systemc caused by the interaction between microorganisms and biofilms on pipe-liquid surfaces is not a new one. As early as 1977, the cor-rosive effects associated with microbial fouling and biofilm formation have ber.1 the subject of studies by the scientific com-munity, and have ber identified as a detrimental effect of "biofoulir.g." h .iorman, G., Characklis, W.G., and Bryers, J.D., "Control of Microbial Fouling in Circular Tubes with Chlorine," 18 Develoonent in Industrial Microbiology, pp. 581-590 (1977), attached as Exhibit E, and studies cited above.
10. Fouling by macro-organisms, such as barnacles and mus-sels, should not be thought of as independent of microbial foul-ing. Microbial fouling often precedes colonization of heat-exchanger surfaces by macro-organisms, since the microbiological organisms which cause the corrosion are a food source for bivalves, permitting and encouraging their settlement and colonization, and the sedimentation caused by and causing micro-biologically induced corrosion enables mussols and oysters to attach more firmly to piping surfaces. Therefore, control of microbial fouling results in control of macrobial fouling. Con-versely, controlling macro-fouling will not necessaryily control microbial fouling or microbiologically induced corrosien. See Characklis, W.G., "Bioengineeri.ng Report -- Foulint Bicfilm

Development: A Process Analysis," Biotechnoloav and Bioencineer-ing, Vol. XIII, pp. 1923-1960 (John Wily & Sons, Inc. 1980),

   .              INT!10DUCTI0tl With the increasing necessity to recycle both fresh and saltvater, problems of microfouling and subsequent microbially facilitated corrosion i

become more important. Noi only do microblat films increase resistance to efficient heat transfer, increase the resistance to fluid flow and provide the conditions fer facilitation of corrosion, but they may provide the ideal growth conditions for the dissemination of the huh.an pathogen Legionella. Simple antifouling treatments with blocidos are increasingly expensive and potentially damaging to the environment so research tow.a ds a new strategy to interdict microfouling led to the development and validatien of biochemical methods by which the biomans and community structure of the mlerobial films could be e>, amin d.

Ef fect of Diofilm Growth on flydraulic Performance Dy B. F. Picologlou,8 N. Zelver,' and U. G. Characklis' INTRODUC7. ION Biofouling in water conduits causes pronounced increases in fluid frictional resistance. The resulting energy losses arc of major concer7 to the water supply and power industries.

        ,                    Biofouling is a general term referring to undesirable effects due to attachment of microorganisms at liquid-solid interfaces.         The microorganisms produce a polysaccharide slime layer (5,6,8) which, when formed on the inside surface of water conduits, increases frictional resistance in flow systems re-sulting in energy losses or losses in pipeline capacity.-

Deterioration of pipeline capacity attributed to biofilm development can be substantial. Seifert and Kruger (14) report a 55% reduction of original capacity in a 50 mile (80 km) long water supply pipeline 23.62 inches (60 cm) ID due to a l) - thin slimy layer approximately 0.026 inches (650 pm) thick. Table 1 documents other case histories of biofouling in water supply lines (3 ) . Biofouling is not limited to microbial activity. The term includes the interaction of the microorganisins and the slime leyer with both the chemistry of the solid surface and the bulk

fluid. These in terac tions can enhance some of the~ more commonly known fouling phenomena such as precipitation or crystalliration (scaling) and corrosion. In these latter cases, the wall layer attains a much more rigid s tructure and the pronounced increase in frictional resistance can be successfully explained by the

           ,        increase in the equivalent sand roughnesp of the pipe wall.             In the case of microbial slime layers, the situa tion is more com-plex.      The thickness and morphology of the slime layers are
   ') ,             functions of the operating conditions.            A change in operating

. conditions, such as an incNease in wall shear s tress, can cause

                  'significan t changes in the morphology and thickness uf the bio '

film, thus changing the value of the equivalen t sand roughness. In addition, the viscoelastic nature of the slime layer and its filamentous acrphology suggest that perhaps additional dissipa-tien mechanisms con tribu te significan tly to the increased fric-tional 'resis tance . Consequen tly, description of the biofilm effect by a unique value of equivalent sand roughness may be g) inadequate over the entire range of the operating conditions. The purpose of this s tudy is to explore some of these possibilities. This paper will only be concerned with microbial slime layers and, th er e f or e, the term biofoulina will be used for microbial fouling and the term biofilm for the microbial slimo layer.

Chlonne generally is used for controlling nuerobial fouling in such systems. How ever, both economic considerations and increasingly stringent environrnental regulations r 0uire a systematic understanding of microbisj fouling. its effects. and methods of control.
