MOTION FOR LEAVE TO SUPPLEMENT BASIS OF CONTENTION REGARDING NEPA REQUIREMENT TO ADDRESS SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS OF THE FUKUSHIMA TASK FORCE REPORT Pursuant to 10 C.F.R. § 2.323, Beyond Nuclear, Citizens Environment Alliance of Southwestern Ontario, Dont Waste Michigan, and the Green Party of Ohio (hereafter "Joint Intervenors" or "Intervenors"), hereby move for leave to supplement the basis for their contention seeking consideration of the environmental implications of the Fukushima Task Force Report in the relicensing decision for the Davis!Besse reactor. Intervenors request the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board ("ASLB") to consider the recent issuance of a directive by the Commissioners of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") to the NRC Staff, which requires the Staff to "strive to complete and implement the lessons learned from the Fukushima accident within five years - by 2016." SRM/SECY!11!0124, Memorandum from R.W.

Borchardt, Executive Director for Operations to Annette L. Vietti!Cook, Secretary, re:

Recommended Actions to be Taken Without Delay from the Near!Term Task Force Report (Oct.

18, 2011). SRM/SECY!11!0124 (see NRCs website at: http://www.nrc.gov/reading!rm/doc!

collections/commission/srm/2011/2011!0124srm.pdf. ) provides further support in addition to the language of the Task Force Report itself and the Declaration of Dr. Arjun Makhijani, for Intervenors contention that the information set forth in the Task Force Report must be considered before issuance of a License Renewal for the Davis!Besse reactor. By ordering the Staff to adopt and implement numerous Task Force recommendations, including redefining what level of protection of public health and safety should be regarded as adequate, the Commission makes clear that it believes the lessons learned from the Fukushima accident have safety and environmental significance. See SRM/SECY!11!0124 at 2.

Intervenors note that the issuance of SRM/SECY!11!0124 also undermines the basis for a recent licensing board decision finding that contentions similar to Intervenors contention were premature because the Commission itself had not yet accepted or implemented the Task Force Reports conclusions and recommendations. PPL Bell Bend, L.L.C. (Bell Bend Nuclear Power Plant); Luminant Generation Co., L.L.C. (Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, Units 3 and 4); Energy Northwest (Columbia Generating Station); Southern Nuclear Operating Co.

(Vogtle Electric Generating Plants, Units 3 and 4); Duke Energy Carolinas, L.L.C. (William States Lee Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2), LBP!11!27, __ NRC __, slip op. at 16 (Oct. 18, 2011) (citing Union Electric Co. d/b/a Ameren Missouri (Callaway Plant, Unit 2), et al., CLI!11!05, __ NRC __

(Sept. 9, 2011)).

Intervenors certify that on October 26, 2011, we contacted counsel for the applicant and the NRC Staff in an attempt to obtain their consent to this Motion. Counsel for the applicant (FENOC) opposed the Motion, as did the NRC Staff.
