LYNN CHONG et al. & CO-OP MEMBERS FOR RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT'S RENEWED CONTENTIONS--May 25, 1982 Lynn Chong et al. & Co-Op Members for Responsible Investment, not having been informed yet of their intervenor status by the earlier deadline for " contentions," gratefully accept the May 25 deadline for its opportunity to renew their original contentions, which follow: _ - _ _ . . . .

- - 3 :.

1. No Seabrook evacuation plan can yet guarantee r de removal of local and summer residents and summer tourists and migrant workers in the event of a nuclear accident.

53 Cc-Op members who also use the NH' beaches in season, do usually spend a total of 21 summer days at the Hampton Beach area with my two daughters. I have done so since graduating from the University of New Hampshire (B.A. '67 and M.A. '69). During a nuclear accident at Seabrook, our lives would be threatened or lost, contrary to the ljbConstitutional amendment, section 1, that says any person shall not be deprived "of life, liberty, or property, (emphasis added) without due process of law."

2. Gov. Gallen's springtime 1980 request for an NRC . study of the quality of Seabrook Station construction done while workers were under the influence of drugs, is not yet completed or released. Shoddy nuclear plant construction is not to be trusted, as stated in our original item number two.

. 3. The NRC's ALARA policy allows radioactive emissions in a routine way, although there has never in New Hampshire been public discussion and decision-making of what a " reason-able" number of health effects (cancers, genetic mutations, other radiation-caused abnormalities) might be, in exchange for having the benefits of nuclear-generated electricity.

4. High-voltage transmission lines having a discharge corona and chemicals such as agent white n_nd Tordon sprayed beneath 2.

i them to maintain right-of-ways present health-hazards that have not had public discussion sufficiently in New Hampshire. Any of us passing in some proximity to the lines stand to be affected unless it is proven otherwise, and our grandchildren may suffer birth defects such as are now known caused by agent orange.

3. (formerly B.l.) As part-owners of Seabrook Station, we Co-op members have a financially unstable partner in Public Service Company of New Hampshire, primary owners and builders of Seabrook Station. In DR77-49, 1978, the NHPUC described PSCoNH' to be " teetering precariously on' the brink ,

of financial disaster," and in January 1982 PSCoNH!s bond-rating was dropped to speculative grade, meaning to us that the utility is in no better condition half-way through Seabrook Unit l's construction. We Co-Op members find it impossible to believe that PSCoNH could finance a major accident's clean-up or even finance in an on-going routine way the best maintenance of an on-line Seabrook Station.

We also wonder at the quality of construction supervision that allows underemployed welders to set up a regular production line of stainless steel belt-buckle construction while the NH public believes their line of work is nuclear plant construction.

6. (formerly B.2.) Repeat as in tie original filing.
