Warren 'Jastincs, transmitted a letter notifying the Board of the w .1-drawal of "its Application to the State of Oregon for a Site Certificate for the Pebble Springs N'uclear Plant.

FORELAWS ON BOARD ,

, . "*, 2 (1)' All further proceedings in the Pebble Springs site certificate application cending before the Council are hereby term-inated:

(2) The applier.tl by the Portland General Electric Company for a site ce rti f ic t ~e is hereby denied: and (3) The Portland Uc.eral Electric Company is directed to advise the Federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission of the action taken by this Council in order to obviate the need for the hearing scheduled for. April 20, 1992, and it is further ordered that the Portland Gen-eral Electric Company take such action before the Federal Nuclear Re-gulatory Commission to carry out the intention of this order.

In addition, Portland General Electric " enclosed for the Board's and Staff's information a copy of an Order of the Oregon Public Utility Commissioner directing Portland General Electric Company to write off

its financial investment in such f;cnt or to show cause why it shc2.'ed nct be required to do so."

I Portland General Electric's response to the Orders of both the Oregon Energy Facility si".ing Council and the Oregon Public Utility Commissioner has been to ir'orm this Board that "the Application to the Nuclear Regulatory C nmi. Men for a Construction Permit for these units is not beine withdrawn since the project could be continued at another location in another state." (emphasis added). Forelaws On Board contends that this action on the part of PGE is contrary to the intent of the Orders expressed above.

The Pebble Springs Application has been denied by the State of

Oregon and all further hearings terminated. Portland General Electric I

l cannot obtain a license to construc t the Pebble Springs plants in , agon.

t Thus the Application before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has been rendered noot ard any further licensing proceedings should be termine.ted with the Board's denia: of the Pebble Springs Application. If Portland 1

these proposed nuclear plants "at another location in another state" they may do so by reanolvine with a new application before the Nuclemr Regulatory Commission. To allow this Application to languish before this Board any longer is to prejudice our interests as a party to this proceeding as well as th:. o 12all public interest. (10 CFR 2 759). .

Thus we pray that the Be_cd end these protracted hearings and deny this Application as being without further merit.

Respectfully submitted.
