& Safety Issues SEACOAST ANTI-POLLUTION LEAGUE'S MOTION TO EXTEND THE DEADLINE FOR FILING RESPONSES TO APPLICANTS '

MOTIONS FOR

SUMMARY

DISPOSITION The Seacoast Anti-Pollution League moves the Licensing Board, pursuant to 10 CFR S 2.730, 5 2.711 and 5 2.7 49(c), to issue an order to extend the deadline for filing responses to Applicants' Motions for Summary Disposition.

As bases for supporting this motion SAPL states:

1)

Applicants have sought summary disposition on all 11 contentions SAPL has had admitted in this proceeding.

The motions for summary disposition on SAPL's and other parties contentions were served on SAPL on March 26, 1987 in a box over six inches in depth.

Each of the motions directed to SAPL's contentions had at least one and in some instances several i

detailed af fidavits associated therewith and each motion contained a detailed recitation of f actual and legal issues the Applicants asserted not to be in dispute.

,y -

v, 2)

The affidavits associated with the motions were provided at least in part by individuals who have not been identified as witnesses for the Applicants. In response to SAPL's General Interrogatory "What witnesses do the Applicants intend to have testify with respect to this contention?" Applicants replied as recently as March 18,1987 " Witnesses have not yet been selected."

The Town of Hampton in its interrogatories (SAPL intends to litigate Hampton Revised Contention III to Revision 2) asked Applicants to " Identify all persons on whose factual knowledge, opinions, or technical expertise you rely for your position na each contention and subpart thereof." (emphasis added)

Applicants, though supplying a list of seven names, did not in their March 18 reply specify which experts would be relied on for each specific contention.

3)

SAPL contends that, with respect to each of its 11 admitted contentions, there are substantial genuine issues of material fact in dispute.

Pursuant to this Board 's schedule and S2.749(a), SAPL has only 20 days to respond to the aggregate of Motions for Summary Disposition directed to its contentions.

This is an inadequate amount of time for consultation with expert witnesses, preparation of affidavits, and drafting of responses and statements of facts in dispute.

4)

Since the Board has not yet provided the parties with a memorandum detailing the bases for acceptance or rejection of contentions on the Revision 2 plans, it is premature to be carrying forward with summary disposition at this time.

"u

'. 5)

In answer to interrogatories, SAPL received a great deal of material on March 19, 1987.

These answers to discovery and the summary disposition motions are in the process of being distributed to the appropriate experts but these experts will require a reasonable period of time to assess the material and prepare af fidavits in response.

6)

SAPL has had so much work to do associated with this proceeding including the seeking of a stay of the low power license filed this date, that it has not yet had time to seek production of documents from either the Applicants or the State of New Hampshire.

7)

Thomas J. Adler, the expert witness upon whom SAPL

-intends to rely in litigating SAPL Contention 31 and Hampton Revised Contention III to Revision 2 has not received certain key information required to perform his analysis properly (see

" Attorney General James M. Shannon's Motion to Extend the Deadline Within Which to Respond to Applicants' Motions for Summary Disposition" at points #6 and 7).

WHEREFORE, SAPL moves this Board to issue an order extending the deadline for filing summary disposition to Monday, May 11, 1987.

a g, g Respectfully submitted, Seacoast Anti-Pollution League By its Attorney BACKUS, MEYER & SOLOMON I

DATED April 8,1987
