- 1. I am a Research Professor of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Utah, and Director of the University of Utah Seismograph Stations. This Declaration is in support of the State of Utah's April 30,1999 Motion Requiring Applicant to Apply for Rule Waiver Under 10 CFR s 2.758(b) or in the Altemative Amendment to Utah Contention L (" State's Motion"). A statement of my qualifications is attached hereto.
2.' I am familiar with Private Fuel Storage's ("PFS's") license application, Safety Analysis Report, answers to the NRC Staffs Requests for Additional Information, and
- Commitment Resolution Information relating to seismic issues. I am also familiar with j
the February 1999 Geomatrix report entitled Fault Evaluation Study and Seismic Hazard Assessment, Volumes I-III, and supplements thereto. Additionally, I am familiar with NRC regulations, guidance documents, and environmental studies relating to seismic hazard analysis.

He is the author or co-author of 36 published papers,69 published abstracts and numerous technical reports. His present responsibilities at the University of Utah include seismological research and extensive project management-<:hleay relating to the operation and modernization of a 100-station regional seismic network covering Utah and neighboring parts of the Intermountain area. He currently is the Principal Investigator on research projects totaling approximately $750,000 per annum.
He has been affiliated, since its inception, with the U.S. National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program-variously as a Principal Investigator of funded research, as a participant in dozens of workshops and conferences, and as a member of peer review panels. He has served on numerous national and state advisory and policy making committees, including,the Committee on Seismology of the National Research Council (19891994), the Board of Directors of the $elsmological Society of America (1994-1997), the Council of the National Seismic System (1993 present), and the Utah Seismic Safety Commission (1994-present).
