Nuclear Generating Station))DECLARATION OF PAO-TSIN KUOI, Pao-Tsin Kuo, do hereby state as follows:1. I am employed as the Acting Director of the Division of Licensing Renewal("DLR") in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's ("NRC") Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
Supp   Accession Number  Document Date                                Title/Description:
("NRR"). My supervisory responsibilities include oversight of the NRC Staff's review and evaluation of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station license renewal application.2. As part of their responsibilities in preparing the hearing file and mandatorydisclosures for these proceedings, NRC staff members under my supervision identified several documents as privileged because they contained information concerning the Staff's deliberative process. Those documents are listed in Attachment 2 to the December 11, 2006, submission of Supplement 4 to the Staff's Hearing File.3. I have personally reviewed the documents identified as privileged inAttachment 2, and have determined, in accordance with the guidance set forth in Management Directive 3.4, that they contain predecisional information concerning the Staff's review of the license renewal application. All documents contain either the Staff's analyses, recommendations, opinions, or evaluations, and may not necessarily reflect the final agency position with respect to the matters discussed therein. Each of the documents comprises part of the deliberative process necessary to the Staff's review of the pending license renewalapplication.4. Further, I have determined that disclosure of the documents could result in harmto the agency, in that it would (a) prematurely disclose the preliminary views of individual Staff members and/or the Staff prior to reaching a final agency decision, and could thus create confusion as to the actual policy or views of the NRC Staff; (b) hinder the efficiency of the Staff, in that forced disclosure of its internal discussions on an unresolved issue would tend to chill allfuture deliberations and would interfere with the Staff's ability to engage in a free exchange of opinions and analyses prior to publishing its final review documents; and (c) imply or suggest incorrectly that the opinions of the Staff members involved in these communications are actually the final decisions of the agency, while no such final decision has yet been made.5. Accordingly, I formally invoke the deliberative process privilege with respect toeach of the documents listed in Attachment 2 to the December 11, 2006, submission of Supplement 4 to the Staff's Hearing File.6. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to thebest of my knowledge, information and belief. /Original Signed By/

DECLARATION OF PAO-TSIN KUO I, Pao-Tsin Kuo, do hereby state as follows:
: 1.        I am employed as the Acting Director of the Division of Licensing Renewal (DLR) in the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC) Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR). My supervisory responsibilities include oversight of the NRC Staffs review and evaluation of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station license renewal application.
: 2.        As part of their responsibilities in preparing the hearing file and mandatory disclosures for these proceedings, NRC staff members under my supervision identified several documents as privileged because they contained information concerning the Staffs deliberative process. Those documents are listed in Attachment 2 to the December 11, 2006, submission of Supplement 4 to the Staffs Hearing File.
: 3.        I have personally reviewed the documents identified as privileged in , and have determined, in accordance with the guidance set forth in Management Directive 3.4, that they contain predecisional information concerning the Staffs review of the license renewal application. All documents contain either the Staffs analyses, recommendations, opinions, or evaluations, and may not necessarily reflect the final agency position with respect to the matters discussed therein. Each of the documents comprises part
 
of the deliberative process necessary to the Staffs review of the pending license renewal application.
: 4.        Further, I have determined that disclosure of the documents could result in harm to the agency, in that it would (a) prematurely disclose the preliminary views of individual Staff members and/or the Staff prior to reaching a final agency decision, and could thus create confusion as to the actual policy or views of the NRC Staff; (b) hinder the efficiency of the Staff, in that forced disclosure of its internal discussions on an unresolved issue would tend to chill all future deliberations and would interfere with the Staffs ability to engage in a free exchange of opinions and analyses prior to publishing its final review documents; and (c) imply or suggest incorrectly that the opinions of the Staff members involved in these communications are actually the final decisions of the agency, while no such final decision has yet been made.
: 5.        Accordingly, I formally invoke the deliberative process privilege with respect to each of the documents listed in Attachment 2 to the December 11, 2006, submission of Supplement 4 to the Staffs Hearing File.
: 6.        I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief.

December 11, 2006 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION BEFORE THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD In the Matter of )

)

AMERGEN ENERGY COMPANY, LLC ) Docket No. 50-219-LR

)

(License Renewal for Oyster Creek )

Nuclear Generating Station) )

DECLARATION OF PAO-TSIN KUO I, Pao-Tsin Kuo, do hereby state as follows:

1. I am employed as the Acting Director of the Division of Licensing Renewal (DLR) in the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC) Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR). My supervisory responsibilities include oversight of the NRC Staffs review and evaluation of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station license renewal application.
2. As part of their responsibilities in preparing the hearing file and mandatory disclosures for these proceedings, NRC staff members under my supervision identified several documents as privileged because they contained information concerning the Staffs deliberative process. Those documents are listed in Attachment 2 to the December 11, 2006, submission of Supplement 4 to the Staffs Hearing File.
3. I have personally reviewed the documents identified as privileged in , and have determined, in accordance with the guidance set forth in Management Directive 3.4, that they contain predecisional information concerning the Staffs review of the license renewal application. All documents contain either the Staffs analyses, recommendations, opinions, or evaluations, and may not necessarily reflect the final agency position with respect to the matters discussed therein. Each of the documents comprises part

of the deliberative process necessary to the Staffs review of the pending license renewal application.

4. Further, I have determined that disclosure of the documents could result in harm to the agency, in that it would (a) prematurely disclose the preliminary views of individual Staff members and/or the Staff prior to reaching a final agency decision, and could thus create confusion as to the actual policy or views of the NRC Staff; (b) hinder the efficiency of the Staff, in that forced disclosure of its internal discussions on an unresolved issue would tend to chill all future deliberations and would interfere with the Staffs ability to engage in a free exchange of opinions and analyses prior to publishing its final review documents; and (c) imply or suggest incorrectly that the opinions of the Staff members involved in these communications are actually the final decisions of the agency, while no such final decision has yet been made.
5. Accordingly, I formally invoke the deliberative process privilege with respect to each of the documents listed in Attachment 2 to the December 11, 2006, submission of Supplement 4 to the Staffs Hearing File.
6. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief.
