G The Commission's regulations and case law are clear that only motions and answers to motions may be filed. 10 C.F.R. §2.730(c) states that "[t]he moving party shall have no right to reply, .:except as permitted by the presiding officer *.* II See also Detroit Edison Co.

Ther,efore the supplemental argument in support of the motion should be stricken as an impermissible pleading.
Were the Board to consider the merits, the Colemans' motion should be denied, even taking into account the ad-_y ditional arguments advanced.
The Colemans claim that .information.
regarding r.adiation exposures experienced during the of the spent fuel pools at the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station was to be provided.
Initially, the Licensee was never asked for this information nor has it made any representation that such data would be provided by it. The Colemans have failed to demonstrate the relevance of this information to the Salem case. The Peach Bottom . ... 1/ See also Licensee's Response to Motion for tion--ci'f"""°Colemans' Contention No. Thirteen dated August 31, 1979. facilities are boiling water reactors, while Salem Unit 1 is a pressurized water reactor. There has been no showing that the racks or methodology for changfng the racks have any I similarity with those to be employed at Salem Unit 1. To the extent that this information may be considered related to this proceeding, the Colemans could have and should have requested
... the information they now seek during the extended period for discovery which was permitted by the Board. They have not demonstrated why the Board should grant the requested relief to give the .Colemans what clearly should have been pursued during discovery in accordance with the Commission's Rules of Practice.
With regard to seeking the information from the Staff, the Colemans have failed to inform this Board of a vital fact relevant to its decisionrnaking.
The Colemans have 2/ already made a request under the Freedom of Information 3/ and the NRC's implementing for this data (.Appendix .A contains a: copy of the Colemans 1 undated request) and have been informed by letter dated August 23, 1979 that none of the requested information was in the possession of the NRC (Appendix B contains a copy of the NRC reply). Thus, they would have the Board do a useless act and have withheld information from the Board which could have af-fected its decision in this matter . ...l:_I 5 u.s.c. 552 et seq. _]_/ 10 C.F.R. Part 9, Subpart A.
4 The remainder of the brief attempts to argue from material taken out of context from another proceeding that information provided to the Board by the NRC Staff was incorrect.
The fallacious premise underlying this argument is that there is necessarily a similarity between the situation at Oconee and at Salem Unit 1 *. However, the Colemans offer nothing which would demonstrate that any disparity in estimates cannot be explained by differences in design, procedures and other circumstances existing at the 4/ two facilities.-
In any event, these are matters which should have been pursued during the discovery phase of this proceeding; there is no reason to permit further discovery on these matters at this time. In their argument, the Colemans misstate the Licensee's position with regard to the Commission's "as low as reasonably achievable" ("ALARA")
standard.
It is clear that "Licensee's Response to the Motion for Reconsideration of Colemans'
- Contention No. Thirteen" addressed only the application of the standard to Contention 13 in this proceeding which has no connection with the consideration of alternatives.
The Colemans distort the Licensee's position addressed to a limited point by trying to apply it beyond its obvious limits and give it universal application.
_!/ Informal contacts reveal that (1) the Staff has aubsequently reduced its estimates of the Oconee occupational doses and (2) the estimated doses resulted from the condition of the Oconee spent fuel and the fact that the Oconee racks were welded to the liner rather than bolted as is the case at Salem Unit 1. Radiation doses may certainly be considerations in the evaluation of viable alternatives in a particular licensing action; however, the fact that the radiation dose to the public or to radiation workers associated with one alterna-tive may be less than another, does not mandate the selection of that alternative.
It is only one factor to the considered.
To give an example, if one alternative had a dose associated with it of .0005 man rem and another had a dose of .0006 man rem, it would be completely contrary to the mandate of the National Environmental Policy Act and the Commission's regulations to exclude all other considerations and be required to select the first alternative.
Of course, with respect to any course of action ultimately selected, the Commission's ALARA standard would have to be implemented.
There is nothing in the cited staff position which is any way inconsistent with Licensee's position.
In conclusion, nothing further has been presented which would require reconsideration of the Board's prior rulemaking with regard to Contention
