Unit #1) )
PETITION FOR LEAVE TO AMEND PETITION FOR LEAVE TO INTERVENE BY THE TOWNSHIP OF LOWER ALLOWAYS CREEK A Petition For Leave To Intervene By The Township of Lower Alloways Creek, and Affidavit In Support Of Petition For Leave To Intervene By The Township Of Lower Alloways Creek was filed in this proceedin~ on March 9, 19 78.
By Order dated March 22, 1978 the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Designated To Rule On Petitions For Leave To Intervene granted a motion by the Division of Public Interest Advocacy, Department Of Public Advocate, State of New Jersey, to extend to and including April 5, 1978 the time for filing A Petition For Leave To Intervene.
The motion that was granted also provided for extension of time to amend previously filed Petitions such as the Acknowledged by C3id 1,1.Q: ....... ~ .. :....:;:
one filed by Petitioner, Township of Lower Alloways Creek.
On March 22, 1978 NRC Staff filed an Answer To Petition For Leave To Intervene By The Township Of Lower Alloways Creek in which it concluded that the Petition For Leave To Intervene By The Township Of Lower Alloways Creek should be granted, subject to the Township demon-strating how its interest will be affected by this proceeding.
Petitioner hereby requests that its previously filed Petition For Leave To Intervene be amended by the addition of the following statement demonstrating how its interest may be affected by the results of this proceeding.
Petitioner contends that its original*Petition and all the statements contained therein, when read as a whole, amply demonstrate how its interest may be affected, especially when logical inferences and conclusions are drawn. The interest of the Township of Lower Alloways Creek in protecting the health, safety and welfare of the public or any person within it, would be adversely affected if there were any accidents or nuclear mishaps at the Salem Unit #1, Spent Fuel Storage Area due to the requested
increase of storage capacity, which is the subject of this proceeding.
Any such accident or nuclear mishap will adversely affect or jeopardize the health and safety of persons and members of the public at or near the site by exposing them to bodily harm from the resulting radiation. Since the very site and the persons and members of the public so exposed are within the Petitioner Township, the Petitioner's interest in preserving their health, safety and welfare will be affected if the increase in spent fuel storage capacity increases the risk of excessive radiation, accidents and nuclear mishaps.
Petitioner through its contentions, maintains that such increased risk of excessive radiation, accidents and nuclear mishaps may result from the granting of application for the increased storage of spent fuel at Salem Generating Station Unit #1. The purpose of this intervention is to make sure that these risks are fully considered and that the public health and safety with
'**- ,_}
which the Township is charged is properly protected against these risks.
WHEREFORE, the Petitioner, Township Of Lower Alloways Creek, respectfully requests that this Petition To Amend its previously filed Petition For Leave To Intervene, be granted .
