- 1983 Prehearing Conference Order it appears that th2s Board oither misroads or micunderstands Palmotto Allianco's Quality Assurance Contention Number 6 in serious ways that cloud and obscure the nature of Palmotto Allianco's concerns expressed since the outset of this proceeding, the allocation of the burden cf proof with respect to the adequacy of applicant's Quality Assurance Progran and the assuranco that the Catawbs Nuclear Station is safely built, seriously hinders and limits palmotto Alliance's ability to offer evidence on this subject in upcoming heerinoc.

The thrust of the Board's-September 14, 1963 Prehosring Conferenco Ordor with respect to its characteri=stion of Ps1 motto
- Contention 6 is to mistakenly limit Psimetto's proof on its Quality Assur-ince Contention to- "Information about specific construction deficiencies." (Ordor at pp. 6-8.) If Psimetto's
_ 3 _
thir spec 2fication of cading of this Order is indeed correct, improperly targots the " trees" while missing tho
.the issues by limiting proof to " specific construction
" forest" deficiencies" which are meroly the symptoms of the more pervasive malady: the systematic Quality Assurance breakdown at datawba. By the Board appears to accept tho same fallacious no doing, approach to this issue as is reflected by Duke Power Company's response to the serious, generic and programmatic complaints by Duke's response there was, the Catawbs welding inspectors.
likewise, to target only the " specific construction deficiencies", i.e., the bad welds, while ignoring the procedural cnd programmetic Quality Assurance breakdown. Quality Assurance pronicco at Cstswbs have not and will not be solved by simply reworking or exple_.ing away the known construction deficiencies. It is the indeterminate character of the as built condition of the plant - the unknown construction deficiencies that should be the proper target of palmetto's Quality Assurance Contention 6.
By memo to the parties of September 16, 1983, the Board Chairman transmitted the Appesi Board's most recent pronouncement on the subject of Quslity Assurance: Unigg__Elegtric__Cg, (Callsway Plant. Unit 1), ALAB-740,_____ NRC_______ (September 14, 1963), with the appropriate admonition that, "[T]he decision ;

A recurring issue in reactor oporating license proceedings is whether the incility hoe been properly constructed. In most instaneos, the focus is upon the execution of the Quality Assurarre Program designed to
- eliminate the possibility that construction deficiencias of potential safety significance will go undetecteo and therefore unrectified.
In any project even remotely approaching in magnitudo and complexity the erection of a nuclear power plant, there inevitably will be some construction thus, cefects tied to Quality Assurance lapsou . . . .
in examining claims of Quality Assurance deficiencies, one must look to the implication of those deficiencies in terms of safe plant operation.
Obviously, this inquiry necessitates careful censideration of whether all ascertained construction errors heye been cured.

Ilowever, hero, if Palmetto Alliance's understanding of the Board's Prehearing Conference Order is correct the existence of " specific construction deficiencies" is the be all and end all of this Board's inquiry. By its express terms the Ecord's Prehooring Conference Order observes that the offecs of its terns is to requiro Palmotto's dicciosure of all information about specific construction deficiencios for the record by Septenber 19, 1983 - the Monday following the Friday receipt of.

This discovery and NRC personnel confirmed Palnotto's eerliest fears, revealed extensive QA breakdowns at Cstswbs, evidence of widespread extending far beyond the welding craft ares. Through this discovery Palmetto learned for the first time of the critical October 1982 sudit of construction p'octicen at Catawba - the INPO study - " Cone.truction Station." Ovor Pro 3cct Eve.iuation for Catawba Nucle 3nr Duke Power Company's oblectione, this Board directed production of the INFO study together with past revisions of cor.struc tion and Quality Assuranco procedures in use over time at the Catawba Station. On the basis of this information learned .since May 1983 Palmetto Alliance sought by Motion of September 9, 1983, reopened discovery of Quality Assurance matters beyond the welding aros permitted earlier and additiensi relief to permit the comprehensive treatment of systematic Quality Assuranco concerns at Catawbs.
Finslly, on September 14, 1983, the Government.

requested the NRC Comnissioners' inmediate action
. pursuant to 10 C.F.R. section 2 206 to require independent audits of the as-built condition of the facility and the Quality Assurance program at Catawba.

In Jight of the foregoing ralnotto Alliance respectfully objecte to the Board's Pretnaring Conference Order, seeks clarification and revision of that Order to clarify ano specify the Quality Assurance issue for hearing in this proceeding consistent with Palmetto Alliance's originci Contention 6 and the -

With respect to Contention 6 the NRC Staff's approval of Applicant's Gaality Assurance Program and of Duke Power Company's of the wolding inspoctor complaints resolution of its Quolity Acnurance Justifios Palmetto's focus 6 primarily towards Applicants, and Contention secondarily towards the NRC Staff. Since the Staff has undertaken to endorso and support Applicant's GA track record Intervonors shoulc be permitted to respond by following third in order of presentation. Palmetto further objects to the Board granting Applicant's and NRC Staff unsought and un]ustified advanco opportunity for rebuttal not provided Intervenors. While the Board properly observes that testimony of witnesses subpoenaed by Intervenors "cannot be fully anticipated," the " unanticipated matters" which would crise upon the examination of such witnesses burden
Intervenors and not Applicant and Stoff who employ and control the nubpoonced witnesses. If any party is in a botter position to more fully anticipate the substance testimony it is Applicants and the of such witnesses' should be offered the NRC Staff.

Since the summary disposition stage Palmetto has identified Resnikoff and Mr. Lindsay Audin as its Dr. Marvin proposed witnesses on Contention 16. The sub3ects of the witnesses' proposed testimony has likewise been long known to the parties. The only witnesses whose identities have yet to be disclosed by Palmetto are the witnesses in the employ of Applicants and NRC Staff with regard to Contention 6.

The Board's ruling with respect to the requirement on Palmetto to pay costs of reproduction in advance of the subpoona of records from Applicants is simply wrong.
10 C.F.R. section 2.720 makes mandatory the issuance of a subpcene by the presiding officer for "the production of evidence" upon "a showing, of genersi relevance of sought," but makes no mention of the the...ev3dence payment of costs of reproduction.

Subject to the objections contained in the accompanying filina by Palmetto Alliance with respect to the provisions of the Board's Prehearing Conference Order of September 14, 1983 with respect to "prefiled testimony" at p. 4, Palmetto Alliance hereafter endeavors to provide as fo.llows:
.(1) A general outline of the subject matters on which each witness will be examined, and (2) as to contention 6, specific reference to any par-ticular instance of alleged substandard construc-tion.concerning which the witness will be ques-tioned.
uider at p.4.
Pursuant to 10CFR 82.720, Palmetto Alliance hereby applies te the Chairman for issuance of subpoenas requiring the attend-ante and testimony of the following witnesses and the production of evidence from them with respect to contention 6. Palnetto
~
seeks t:.e production of any and all documents in the possession of the witness or subject to the witness s control which reflect their knowledge of quality assurance and workmanship at Catawba within the scope of Palmetto contention 6.
If the witness is voluntarily tendered for examination by another party Palmetto seeks only the production of evidence fica that witness and an opportunity to examine that witness in i
~
turn. IlowcVer , since the'desionation of witnesses on contention 6 by both Applicantu aru! the NRC Staf f appears by its termu to
'be conditional, Palmetto Alliance asks that subpoenas issuc to compel their attendance , testimony and production of evidence unless such attendance, testimony and production is otherwise agreed to.
Pursuant to 10CPR 92.720 (h) (2) (1) , Palmetto Alliance socks an Order of the presiding officer recuiring the attendance , test-imony and production of evidence from the below named NRC person-7 nel who are bdlieved to have direct personal knowledge of material facts with respect to Palmetto contention 6 unicuely known to them reflecting such exceptional circumstances as reauires their testimony on this matter.
