i also }1ississippi Power and Light Co. (Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2), ALAB-130, 6 A.E.C. 423, 426 (1973); Houston Lighting and Power Co. (Allens Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1), ALAB-590,11 N.R.C. 542, 548-49 (1980). In short, the standard falls somewhere in between, and "[t]he degree of specificity with which the basis for a contention must be alleged initially involves the exercise of judgment on a case-by-case basis." Peach Bottom, supra, 8 A.E.C. at 20 (1974).

There also are certain practical considerations which should play a particularly important role here in the Board's application of the " bases with reasonable specificity" standard to a particular proposed contention -- beyond the question of whether the proposed contention provides clear and precise notice of the issues on which Applicants may bear the burden of proof. The contention should refer to and address pertinent documentation, available in the public domain, which is relevant to this facility. See Cleveland Electric Illuminating Co. (Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Units I and 2), LBP 24,14 N.R.C.175,181-84 (1981). In the instant case, this documentation includes the f

on-site emergency plan and Plant Emergency Procedures (PEP's) for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant which have been served upon the parties to this proceeding.1 In addition, there should be either a reasonably logical and technically credible explanation, or a plausible and referenced authority for the factual assertions in the contentions. The intervenor's personal opinion alone is not adequate for this purpose.

B. Standards Governing Late-Filed Contentions In addition to the normal pleading requirements,10 C.F.R. S2.714 sets forth five factors that must be balanced in admitting a late-filed contention, and a contention is untimely if it is filed later than fifteen days prior to the 10 C.F.R. 52.751a special 1 Rev. O of the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Emergency Plan ("the on-site emergency plan") was served on the Board and parties on March 29,1983. Rev. 3 of the on-site emergency plan and the Harris Plant Emergency Procedures were both served on September 12, 1984. Rev. 4, which was served July 8,1985, made only minor changes to the classification and notification procedures referenced hereinafter. _
