CHAIRMAN CARR:
Good afternoon, ladies and 4
gentlemen.
5 This is an affirmation session.
We have one 6
item to come before us this afternoon.
7 Before I ask the Secretary to lead us 8
through the item for affirmation, do any of my fellow 9
Commissioners have any opening comments they would 10 like to make?
11 (No response) 12 CHAIRMAN CARR:
Mr. Secretary?
f 13 SECRETAR'i CHILK:
Mr. Chairman, before the Li 14 Commissien can consider the affirmation, it needs to 15 vote to hold this on less than one week's notice.
16 If I might have that vote, please.
17 (Ayes) 18 SECRETARY CHILK:
The paper before the 19 commission is SECY-89-257, an immediate effectiveness 20 review of full power licensing of Limerick Unit Two.
21 The Commission is being asked to act on an 22 order which provides a Commission's decision in its 23 immediate effectiveness review of Limerick Unit Two.
i 24 Chairman Carr, Commissioners Roberts,
(--
25 Rogers, and Curtiss, have approved an order which was NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVENLIE N W.

I d attached to our menior a n d u m of August 25, which
(.
I 2
l indicates that the Commission has determined that the 3
l current record in this proceeding provides the l
4 necessary basis for authorizing the issuance of a 5
license to the Philadelphia Electric Company, to 6
operate the Limerick Generating Station Unit Two At 7
full pvwer.
B The Commission finds that the balance of 9
factors set forth in 10 CFR Section 2.764(f)(2)(i), as 10 well as consideration of the environmental matters 11 under the National Environmental Policy Act, favor 12 commencement of this operation now.
13 R es the r than waiting for the outcome of the
(';
14 proceeding currently pending before the Atomic Safety 15 and Licensing Board concerning Severe Accident 16 Mitigation Design Alternatives, SAMDA's, this decision 17 is without prejudice to the Licensing Board decision, 18 i
and the license is subject to amendment as a result of 19 the outcome of that proceeding.
20 Since the Commission expects that there will 21 be a Licensing Board decision on the merits of the 22 SAMDA issue before the first refueling outage, it need 23 not consider at this tinie the matter of whether full 24 power operation beyond first refueling outage should h~
25 be subject to further conditions based on the outcome NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVENUE, N W.

of the Licensing Board proceeding.

The Commission notes that any further 3
requirements on a licensee that might be reasonably 4
foreseen to arrive out of the Board's consideration of 5
SAMDA's will not be foreclosed by the present 6
authorization.
7 In addition, the request of the Limerick 8
Ecology Action Incorporated for an administrative'e 9
housekeeping
- stay, which was in their second 10 supplemental response dated August 24,
- 1989, is 11 denied.
12 Would you please affirm your votes?

V 14 MR. PARLER:
Mr. Chairman, I have a couple 15 items of background laforma. tion, none of which affects 16 the action that the Commission just took.
17 In other words, the order authorizing the 18 staff to issue the full power license for J.*merick 19 stands.
20 But by way of background information, there 21 have been several things that have happened today 22 rather quickly.
23 This morning the intervenor, Limerick 24 Ecology Action, filed a supplemental pleading, which
(*k 25 is addressed in a footnote to the order.

l About an hour ago, I received a copy of a 1 ;
document that had been filed with the Secretary of the l
2 3
Commission.
It is a joint motion for termination of 4
the proceedings signed by the counsel for the 5
respective parties.
6 This joint motion is now before the 7
Licensing Board so if the Licenn ng Board approves 8
it, I would assu.:e that the proceeding would be over 9
with.
10 I would like to call specifically to the I
12 a t t en ti on of the Commission that in that joint motion paragraph which reads as follows:
12 there is a 13
" Licensee, LEA, (that is the intervenor),
14 and the NRC, agree that nothing in the settlement 15 agreement in any way restricts the right of LEA to t
16 con muni ca te to the Commission any safety information 17 it may have, or obtain."
18 About thirty minutes ago, Mr. Chairman, a 19 communication was received from Mr.
Charles W.
20 Elliott, the counsel for intervenor LEA, which advised Mt. Chilk that LEA had withdrawn the pleading, the 21 l
22 second supplemental pleading that it filed this 23 morning, and also specifically it withdraws Section 24 Three ther eof, in which LEA requests a stay of any 4
25 favorable licensing action by the Commission.
