NRC STAFF'S REEPONSE TO JOINT MOTION BY NECNP AND SAPL FOR EXTENSION OF IIEARING SCHEDULE On August 6,1086, Intervenors NECNP and SAPL filed a joint motion for an extension of the hearing schedule established by the Board's Order I
of July 25, 1980, -
wherein they request that the Licensing Board
" extend the hearing schedule by one month in order to allow adequate time to prepare for the hearing" (Motion, at 2).
In essence, NECNP and SAPL seek to defer by one month the dates for (a) conducting depositions, (b) filing testimony, and (c) holding the hearing. 2_/

" Memorandum and Order (Rulings on Applicants' Motion of. Tune 17, 1980, on TH's Motion of June 23, 1986, and on Hearing Matters,"
issued July 25, 1986, at 11-12.
l 2/
Uhile NECNP and SAPL also complain about the time allowed by the Board for filing interrogatories and answers thereto, the Staff does not understand their Motion to seek an extension of time for these activities, as well.
Rather, the Motion appears to be directed to the asserted need to hnve interrogatory answers in hand before any depositions are conducted, and to allow sufficient time for their counsel and expert, who have scheduled vacations during August, to review discovery responser and to prepare for depositions and hearings (Motion, at 2, 3).

{DR ADOCK 05000443 PDR+
I The Staff submits that NECUP and SAPL have failed to demonstrate good cause to support a one-month extension of the hearing schedule.
While it might well be preferable to have interrogatory answers in hand prior to conducting depositions, NECNP and SAPL have not shown that depositions concerning the limited scope of the reopened issues will be necessary, nor have they demonstrated why an additional month's time (as opposed to some more limited time which would not disrupt the established hearing schedule), is required for them to prepare for the depositions and hearings.
Accordingly, the Staff opposes the Joint Motion, and recommends that it be denied.
CONCLUSION For the reasons set forth above, the Staff opposes NECNP and i
SAPL's Joint ?!otion and recommends that it be denied.
Respectfully submitted, Sherwin E. Turk Senior Supervisory Trial Attorney Dated at Bethesda, Maryland this 14th dcy of August,1966
