NRC STAFF'S MOTION FOR AN ADDITIONAL EXTENSION OF TIME IN WHICH TO FILE ITS BRIEF IN RESPONSE TO INTERVENOR$' BRIEFS ON APPEAL FROM LBP-88-32 1

The NRC Staff hereby requests an additional five-day extension of time, until Monday, June 5, 1989, in which to file its brief in response to Interveners' four briefs on appeal from the Licensing Board's Partial InitialDecision(PID)ofDecember 30,1988.1/ In support of this request, the Staff states as follows:

1.

Briefs on-appeal from the Licensing Board's PID were filed by theTownofHampton,theSeacoastAnti-PollutionLeague(SAPL),the Massachusetts Attorney General (" Mass AG"), and the New England Coalition l

on Nuclear Pollution (NECNP). The appellants' briefs were filed on or before March 24. 1989, pursuant to a 40-day extension of time granted by the Appeal Board. On May 5,1989, the Appeal Board granted the Staff's request for a 23-day extension of time, until May 31, 1989, in which to file its brief in response to the Interveners' briefs on appeal.

2.

-As the Staff noted in its previous request for-an-extension, the Interveners' briefs total approximately 250 pages, plus many voluminous attachments. In their briefs, the Interveners raise numerous factual. and legal issues-challenging the PID, evidentiary rulings made by the Board.

.and earlier Board rulings.

3.

The preparation of a brief in response t'o these numerous and detailed Challenges to the Licensing Board _'s PID has entailed considerable effort and has taken longer than the Staff initially estimated.

While the Staff previously estimated that its brief would be completed and ready for filing by May 31,1989,.it has become apparent that the Staff will require several additional days in which to complete its brief.

4 The Staff's. requirement of this additional time is necessitated, in part, by the unexpected length of time it has taken to respond to all of the many arguments raised by the Interveners on appeal.

In addition, the need for this additional time results from the fact that the Staff was required to respond last week to an emergency motion filed by the Mass AG, which required Staff Counsel to spend an entire day and night in the preparation of a responsive pleading -- in effect causing the loss of two days' time which would otherwise have been utilized to respond to Interveners' briefs on appeal.

. 5.-

The granting of this Motion will not harn any other party to this proceeding, will not delay resolution cf the issues before the Appeal Board, and will not delay the issuance of a full power license (if such a licenseshouldbeauthorized).

7.

Staff Counsel has contacted the other parties who filed briefs on appeal-from the P!D. Counsel for the Applicants, NECNP, and the Town J

of Hampton have authorized the Staff to state that they do not oppose the granting of this Motion. Counsel for the Mass AG has authorized the Staff to state that he does not oppose an extension until Friday, June 2,1989, but opposes an extension until the following Monday.

Counsel for SAPL has stated that he opposes the grant of any extension of time for the filing of the Staff's brief.

WHEREFORE, the Staff respectfully requests an additional 5-day extension of time, until June 6,1989, for the filing of its brief in response to Interveners' appeals from the Licensing Board's PID.
