APPLICANTS' RESPONSE TO MOTIONS TO REOPEN THE RECORD TO CONSIDER FINANCIAL QUALIFICATION ISSUES PRIOR TO PERMITTING IhW POWER OPERATION STATEMENT OF THE CASE On September 22, 1988, the Commission issued an Order 1 in connection with its consideration of a pending certified petition for waiver of certain aspects of its financial qualification rules. Therein the Commission stated that:

"the unique and unusual circumstances of (the SeabrogA) case, requires that before low power may be authorized, applicants provide reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available ro that safe decommissioning will be reasonably assured in the event low power operation 1

4 has occurred and a full power license is not granted for Seabrook Unit 1.n2 <

In light of the foregoing, the Commission directed the Applicants to "provide the basis on which a finding of the necessary reasonable assurance . . . might be made."3 Applicants were requested to provide, within thirty days:

"adequate documentation of their plan and appropriate commitments under that plan to provide reasonable assurance that adequate funding for decommissioning will be available in the event - full power license is not granted for seabrook Unit 1."4 The Commission went on to state:

I "The procedural posture of L.nis case refl'ets that the record is closed for the consideration of new issues and litigation on this issue may only be pursued if a motion to reopen is granted and at least one late-filed contention is admitted. . . .

Nevertheless, we address it herein and feel it should be denied for the same reasons as set forth with respect to all of The Motions.

THE MOTIONS TO REOPEN DO NOT COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF 10 CFR I 2.734 Introduction The criteria for granting a motion to reopen a closed evidentiary record are set forth in 10 CFR 5 2.734. The required showing is that the motion be timely, address a 9

11"All oppositions to any such motion must ba filed within ten (10) deys of service of the motion." CLI-88-07 at 3.

12 Applicants note that the NECNP Motion contains a motion for a stay. The short, plain and dispositive response to this motion is that it does not even begin to comply with the provlaions of 10 CFR I 2.788 and should, therefore, be denied summarily. Kansas Gas and Electric C2A (Wolf Creek Generating Station, Unit No. 1), ALAB-412, 5 NRC 1415, 1417 (1977).

sianificant safety issue, and "demonstrate that a materially different result would be or would have been likely had the newly proffered evidence been considered initially."13 The burden of satisfying each of the criteria is upon the moving party, and it is, indeed, a heavy one.14 The regulation further requires that the motion be accompanied by affidavits which set forth the factual or technical basis for the claim that the criteria discussed

! above have been satisfied.15 With respect to these affidavits, the regulation provides that:

"Affidavits must be given by competent individuals with knowledge of the facts alleged, or by experts in the disciplines appropriate to the issues raised.

Evidence contained in the affidavits must meet the admissibility standards set forth in 5 2.743(c). Each of the t

criteria must be separately addressed, with a specific explanation of why it is met.n16 Finally, where, as here, the reopening is for the purpose of raising a late filed contention, the motion "must 13 10 CFR I 2.734(a).

b also satisfy the requirements for nontimely contentions in 5

2. 714 (a) (1) (i) through (v) . "17 Thus, in order to have its motion allowed, each movant must prevail as to each of five matters (1) timeliness, (2) safety significance of the issue sought to be raised, (3) difference in result, (4) propriety of the affidavits, and (5) the balancing test with respect to the "five factors" under 10 CFR 5 2.714 (a) (1) . We address each of these matters below.

A. Timeliness.

Given the fact that the Commission authorized The Motions, they are clearly, insofar as they challenge The Plan, timely.

B. There has Been no Adequate Showing as to the Safety Significance of the Issues Sought to be Litigated.

The regulation requires that the novant demonstrate that the motion "addresses a significane safety or environmental t issue."18 Not every safety issue is "significant" for

{

purposes of resolving a motion to reopen. It has been I squarely held, for example, that in cases where reopening is sought on the ground of quality assurance deficiencies, the 17 10 CFR 5 2.734(d).

18 10 CFR $ 2.734 (a) (2) .

O mere showing that a quality assurance program had deficiencies in execution is not enought rather it must be shown that there are, in fact, errors which endanger plant operation or that there has been a wholesale breakdown of quality assurance such as to raise a legitimate doubt as to i the plant's capability of being operated safely.19 In short the safety problem must be real and of a nature that it presents a real and present danger to the public.  !

In The Motions four arguments are made for the proposition that what is involved is a significant safety issue. The two Mass AG Motions acke reference to statements by this Commission made in the issuancc accompanying the recent decommissioning rule.20 These all are statements to the effect that a failure to plan for decommissioning could [

result in significant safety impacts and hazards in the future at sites which are not decommissioned. These statements do not constitute allegations of any clear and present danger to the public. Second, it is argued that high level waste (HLW) is, in and of itself, dangerous and therefore unless there is a good decommissioning plan in 19 Pacific Gas and Electric Comnany (Diablo Canyon l

' Nuclear Power Plant, Unita 1 and 2), ALAB-775, 19 NRC 1361, '

1366 (1984); Pacific Gas and Electric Comeany (Diablo Canyon i Nuclvtr Power Plant, Units 1 and 2), ALAB-756, 18 NRC 1340, [

1344 (1983) 20 Magat_AG #1 Motion at 4; Mass. AG #2 Motion at 6-7.

I

place, there would be future dangers.21 This too is not an allegation of a clear and present danger. Third, it is argued that there may be long term storage of the contaminated fuel and reactor parts at the site.22 Even if this were true, and it is not, the storage on site for a long time of the radioactive products of low power testing present no threat to the health and safety of the public. Fourth, it is argued that the existence on the site of the radioactive materials resulting from testing would be a hazard to those with unrestricted access to the site.23 The complete answer is that as long as there are hazardous materials on the site, there will be no unrestricted access. In s.Nort, even assuming the contentions had merit, and in fact that the Applicants were short of funds to decommission the facility after low power testing, there will not be any present threat

) to the health and safety of the public. The radioactive material vill remain on site and under the regulation of this agency.

Prescinding from all of the foregoing, it will be recalled that 10 CFR $ 2.734(b) requires an affidavit which sets forth "the factual and/or technical basis for the 21 Mass AG #2 Motion at 7.

22 ,NECNP Motion at lot IQH Motion at 4.

23SAPL Motion at 2.

i movants claim that the criteria of paragraph (a) (including the paragraph (a)(2) criterion of significant safety issue) are met. One will peruse such affidavits as were filed with The Motions in vain for any statements in support of the I concept that there is a significant safety issue. The '

affidavits are confined to quarreling with the statements, conclusions, and assumptions in The Plan.

i c'. There has been no Adequate Showing as to the Difference in Result  !

criterion When the Commission codified the rule with respect to  :

reopening closed evidentiary records, 10 CFR I 2.734, it paid I particular attention to the "materially different result" '

criterion codified in subparagraph (3) of subsection (a) of the rule. The Commission noted that theretofore there had been articulated in the case law two differently worded l I

l standardas the so-called "might have been reached" standard 6

and the "would have been reached" standard.24 The Commission went on to say i "The actual inquiry to be performed falls between the two standards. The 'vould' standard may be read to imply that an ultimate conclusion must be reached j before all evidence is considered. The  :

'might' standard implies that reopening  !

could be ordered even where a board is  !

j uncertain whether or not the new evidence i I  !

O is important. The inquiry should be, and has been, the likelihood that a different result will be reached if the information is considered. 133 3.g., Union Electric Comnany (Callaway Plant, Unit 1) , ALAB-750, 18 NRC 1205, 1209 (1983).

Accordingly, the Commission is modifying the standard of I 2.734(a)(3) to require that a materially different result would be or would have been likely had the newlyproff!3 initially."

red evidence been considered In each of The Motions, this criterion is handled by argument in the motion itself to the effect that, assuming the novant is right, the low power decision earlier rendered would have come out differently. Wa are unadvised of any

reason why an outcome adverse to the Applicants is likely.

1 Moreover, once again, the criterion simply is not addressed in the affidavits filed.

D. The Affidavits, to the Extent They 4

Exist at All, do not satisfy the Requirements of the Regulation.

As noted earlier, the regulation governing motions to reopen require that the motion be accompanied by .n affidavit l which gives the factual or technical basis for the claim that the criteria of 10 CFR 52.734(a) have been satisfied.

Moreover, it is required that the affidavit be by competent individuals with knowledge of the facts alleged or by experts in the disciplines appropriate to the issues raised. The 251d. at 19537.

I

NECNP Motion is accompanied by no affidavit, and, therefora should be summarily denied for that reason. The TOH Motion is accompanied by an affidavit of its lawyer. He does not (

purport.to give a basis for TOH's belief that the criteria of 10 CFR I 2.734(a) are satisfied,t rather, he purports, in a wholly conclusory way, to set out "the factual and/or [

technical bases for TCH's lace flied concencion.n26 Thus, on its face, it does not comply with the regulation. SAPL has filed an affidavit. However, there is no statement of qualifications of the affiant accompanying it which could tell the reader if the affiant is competent to give the testimony she purports to give, rurthermore, as indicated h above, the affidavit appears to address the contention, not i the criteria of the regulation. Finally, Mass AG does have I sffidavits attached to both of his motions, and the p

?

i qualifications of the affiants are set forth. However,

(

{ again, the bases addressed in the affidavits are the bases for the contentions made, not the bases for the belief of the h Mass. AG that the criteria of 10 CFR 5 2.734(a) are f l

satisfied.

E. Satisfaction of the "Five Factors" Test

1. Discussion of the Factors
l. Good Cause, if any, for Failure to Flie on Time Concededly, the motions were filed in accordance with the Commission's schedule. They are timely as noted earlier.
11. Availabliity of other Means to Frotect recitioners' Interest.

The Applicants would concede that this (and the fourth factor) favor the movants, as is usually the case. However,

"[t]his factor, like the closely related fourth factor (the extent to which other parties will represent petitioners' interest) is accorded less weight, under established Commission precedent, than factors one, three, and five."27 27 Commonwealth Edison comnany (Braidwood Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2), CLI-86-8, 23 NRC 241, 245 (1986),

Comm.ission "case law establishes both the importance of  ;

this third factor in the evaluation of late-filed contentions ,

and the necessity of the moving party to demonstrate that it has special expertise on the subjects which it seeks to a raise. (citation) The Appeal Po; ts has said: 'When a 1 i petitioner addresses this criterion it should set out with as f

much particularity as possible the precise issues it plans to i cover, identify its prospective witnesses, and summarize

(

their proposed testimony'."28 {'

The Motions name no witnesses definitively.29 The ,

The injection of a new issue will obviously delay any

proceeding. In this case, it also will delay the issuance of

2. Dalance of Factors The only one of the weightier factors which weighs in ravor of the Movants is the timeliness factor. The showing P

of factors weighs against the movants.

II. ALL OF THE MOTIOFS APPEAR TO PROCEED FROM AN ERRUNEOUS INTERPRETATION OF THE COMMISSION'S ORDER.

Prescinding from the failure of the movants to make their' case in conformity with the requirements of 10 CFR 52.734 as shown above, it is also apparent that the motions, in the main, proceed from an erroneous interpretation of the Commission's Order in CLI-88-07. Virtually all the proposed contentions seek to take issue with The Plan as though it was a final decommissioning plan to be measured against the particulars of the recently issued decommissioning rule. No such assignment was given to the Applicanto in CLI-88-07.

What the Commission directed was the filing of a funding plan, not a final decommissioning plan.31 Because there are no regulatory criteria for the amount of funding to be planned for after nothing but low power testing has been accomplished, it was necessary for the Applicants to develop, through the use of conservative assumptions, a dollar amount to be targeted as the required funding to be supplied to decommission Seabrook in thu hypothetical event that no commercial operating license was ever forthcoming after low power testing was conducted. Financially conservative assumptions (such as the possible use of foreign reprocessing) were utilized throughout and no ane really 31 Comoare 10 CFR 5 50.75(b) with 10 CFR 5 50.75(f) .

P quarrels with the number developed based on the' assumptions used.

Despite the foregoing, the movants dwell on The Plan's details with claims to the effect that this or that underlying assumption is erroneous; complaints as to the lack of a specified High Level Waste Storage facility in The Plan;32 complaints that no calculations have been done in conformity with 10 CFR 5 50.75(c);33 arguments that insufficient time has been allowed for regulatory approvals;34 and concerns about ALARA.35 This is not what the commission intended when it issued CLI-88-07. This is evidenced by the limitation of thirty days in the order. '

Such a period could not possibly provide sufficient time to develop finalized contracts for matters such as low level waste storage.36 It is time to develop a plan of sufficient 32 The minor volume of high level waste remaining after reprocessing the fuel is hardly of a magnitude as te sause any great concern insofar as disposal is concerned in any event.

detail to generate a reasonable estimate and funding plan upon which a finding of reasonable assurance can be based; in short, to do what the commission ordered done: provide a basis for finding that in the hvoethetical case of issuance of a low power license never followed by a commercial operating license, there exists retscnablo assurance that there would be funds to underwrite such additional termination costs as would have been caused by the low nower ooeration so as to permit the sit' to be released for unrestricted use. The $21.1 million figure derived from the analysis set forth in The Plan is a reasonable figure for the postulated task at hand, and the means of generating, and, if required, segregating, those funds are realizable. No more was required under the commission's order.

O h.

1 CONCLUSION The motions to reopen fail under two of the thrsa 10 CFR 5 2.734(a) criteria; they do not meet the requirements of 10 CFR 5 2.734(b); they also fail the requirements of 10 CFR S 2.734(d) which incorporates the "five factors' test; and they proceed from an erroneous reading of the Commission's order.

The Motions should be denied.
