, Cons i -.cion of Issuance of Facility Operating License and Notice of Opportunity for Hearing," published at 45 Federal Register 83360 (December 18, 1980), a petition for leave to intervene pursuant to 10 C.F.R.

S 2.714 (a) must:

  • *
  • Set forth with particularity the interest of the petitioner in the proceeding, how that interest may be affected by the results of the proceeding, including the reasons why petitioner should be permitted to intervene, with particular reference to the factors [ listed in the Federal Register notice] in paragraph (d) of this section, and the specific aspect'or' aspects of the subject matter of the proceeding as to which petitioner wishes to intervene.

10 C.F.R.

S 2.714 [ emphasis supplied].

The Commission-thus insists that a prospective intervenor articulate the basis of his interest clearly and, moreover, specify the focus of the desired hearing before the petitioner is entitled to be admitted to a proceeding.

Kansas Gas & Electric _

Co. (Wolf Creek Generating Station, Unit No. 1), ALAB-279, 1 NRC 559, 574 (1975).

Ms. Salava's general statements that she opposes issuance of the Wolf Creek operating license because "there is not a viable emergency plan" and "there has been virtually no publication of the * * * [NRC's] intent to consider the application" are wholly insufficient to satisfy the Commission's

" interest" and " aspects" requirements for intervention petitions.

In an operating license proceeding such as this --

unlike a construction permit proceeding -- a hearing is not mandatory.

There is, accordingly, especially strong reason

" utmost care" to ensure that petitions for intervention clearly demonstrate a "real stake" in the proceeding.

Accord, Houston Lighting & Power Co. (Allens Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1), ALAB-547, 9 NRC 644, 649 (1979).

Applicants would therefore oppose the intervention of Ms. Salava, but do not object to her limited appearance by oral or written statement.on matters germane to the proceeding, if a hearing is held.
