) (Emergency Planning)

(shoreham Nuclear Power Station, )

Unit 1) )

AFFIDAVIT OF RICHARD J. WATTS IN SUPPORT OF LILCO'S MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER Richard J. Watts, being duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:

,l 1.

I am presently the President of Richard J. Watts, Inc. My professional qualifications are included in the attachments to LILCO's profiled testimony on recep-tion centers at tab 7. filed March 30,1987. I have personal knowledge of the facts re-cited in this a!!1 davit Decause I have a working relationship with several of the people from the utilities or counties contacted by LILCO's staff in developing its testimony on the monitoring capabilities of other reception centers in New York and because I was personally involved in making some of those contacts.

2.

As president of Richard J. Watts, Inc., I provide radiological consulting in l

the area of health physics, radioactive waste management, and emergency planning to l LILCO for its Shoreham f acility and to other nuclear power plants and countias sur-i rounding these plants in New York State.

3.

In order to maintain my business and to provide such consultation, it is l important to maintain a good working relationship with utility and county personnel in-volved in emergency planning at all nuclear power plants in New York.

4. In gathering data about the monitoring capabilities of other reception centers in New York, I contacted several persons with the counties identified in LILCO's profiled testimony on reception centers. These persons hold positions of re-sponsibility with the organizations for which they work, such that there is every reason to be confident that the information they have provided to me is reliable.
5. The information provided to me and reported in LILCO's testimony is available to New York State in the exercise of its day-to-day liason role with the plants in question concerning offsite emergency preparedness, both from local government and utility personnel, and without any need to divulge the names of the persons who i provided this information reported in LILCO's testimony.
6. In my opinion, if the names of the sources are revealed, the potential for intimidation of these individuals would be great since they provided information to me that was ultimately used to refute New York State's claim that other reception centers l

in New York are prepared to monitor 100% of the population. Any contact from the In-tervenors would be intimidating since New York State, a party to this litigation, I

i oversees all offsite emergency planning within the state. The mere knowledge that their names had been turned over to the Intervenors also would cause fear within these individuals that that information may be used against them or their emergency organi-zation at some later date.

7. Identifying any of these individuals by name will greatly hinder and l

possibly destroy the good working relationships I have developed with these different individuals because of the intimidation that may result and the potential fear that re-vealing their names might cause.
