l APPLICANTS' MOTION TO COMPEL 1
ANSWER FROM J0. TNT INTERVENORS TO APPLICANTS' REQUEST FOR ADMISSIONS j
Applicants move that the Board compe) the Joint Intervenors to answer by aamission or denial of Applicants' Request for Admission No. 6.
I itequest No. 6 reads an fc? lows:
[
i "As required by federal and/,)r state Jew and/or regulation, the Commonwsaltn of Massacs.uantts and j
the six Massachusetts FF communities have adeque.te (a) plans, (b) personnel, and (c) resources to
[
respond to a major non-radiological hazardous eva..t
[
(such as the chemical release endrgency that occurred earlier this year in thu Springfield area), should one occur in the Massachusetts EFZ, in such a way as to provide reasonable assurance I
that edequat protective measures can and will be l
taken to protect the public health and safety."
[
Joint Intervenors object to this request on three l
grounds, arguing that it sesAs admissicn as to a matter et law, that it is irrelevant, and that it calls for a legal i

conclusion.
The request does begin with a prefatory reference to legal requirenents, but the remainder of the request is purely factual and should be answered.
Egg 10 CFR
$ 2.742(b) ("If written objections are made to only a part of a request, the remainder of the request shall be answered within the time designated.")
The existence of plans, personnel, and resources to respond to non-radiological emergencies is certainly relevant to the proceedings.
(git Board discovery order at Ir2 2456, April 14, 1986 (Town of Hampton compelled to respond to discovery requents concerning TOH's personnel and resources available to raspond to non-radiological emergencies).
As to Joint Interverors' claim 1
that "adequacy" of emergency plans is a legal, not factual question, Applicants note that if Mass AG were right -- which he is not -- no hearing on the "adequacy" of the SPMC would be permitted, let alone required.
A proper answer should be compelled.
By their attorneys,
