Applicants seek to exclude the testimony of a teacher panel,
)
presenting the views of approximately 547 teachers throughout the emergency planning zone, that a substantial rajority of teachers will not be available to assemble, transport, and remain with students at decontamination centers during an actual emergency at Seabrook.
The i' teacher panel, therefore, challenges a basic premise of the NHRERP kgOgy h C
SHAINES f. McC ACHERN PROFES$10N AL ASSOCIATCN F5 MAPLEWOOD AVENUE P O Box 360 PORTSMOUTH N H 03801 i
+y that teachers will-be willing'to carry' out these responsibilities as-assigned under that' plan.1 6
. Applicants, therefore, baldly claim that teachers assigned emergency. response roles under the NHRERP are incompetent to express a-their own: views on teacher av ail abil it y to carry out these assignments.
Apparently, Applicants take the position that their own robust testimony,. prof err ed by " experts" employed to support the NHRERP, can provide more accurate information on teacher availability F to this Board.
The Town of Hampton suggests that Applicants' position
~
- is incorrect as a point of evidence, raises due. process concerns by and denying a hearing to those assigned emergency response roles,
- would result in' exclusion of the most relevant testimony concerning _
teacher availability.
I i
1 The Town of Hampton believes that the State, under cross examination, has admitted that EPZ teachers are assigned emergency r e st pon s e roles under the NHRERP.
- Seg, e.g.,
Hampton Special Facilities Plan, Volume 18A, Appendix F.
New Hampshire's Emergency Management Agency has also apparently conceded that there are no provisions in the NHRERP to compensate or substitute f or a lack of available teachers and that that of fice has conducted no surveys to determine how many teachers m ay volunteer to assume the responsibilities in the event of an actual emergency at seabrook.

- Finally, the Limerick decision relied upon by Applicants otherwise f ails to support Applicants' motion in limine since that decision f ollowed a full evidentiary hcaring.
See, Limerick, n.1 at 1227.
Apparently, in Limerick, no motion to exclude testimony in advance of the hearing was made, and none ordered.
Appl ica nt s' motion, theref ore, is presented without legal support and should be DEHIED.
