4. On July 22, 1983, Angus R. Love, Esquire, agreed to assume representation of the' inmates and Don Bronstein formally withdrew from this matter. .

5. On April 20, 1984, in a Special Prehearing order, the Board granted the inmates twenty (20) days to submit their contentions upon receipt of the evacuation plan for S.C.I.G.

6. On December 14, 1984, counsel for the inmates re-ceived an unclassified copy of the Pennsylvania Bureau of Corrections Radiological Emergency Response Pla'n (copy attached I ,

as Exhibit "A").

7. Upon review of said document, it became obvious that major portions of said plan have been removed. The remain-ing portions made little or no sense, giving counsel an inadequate basis from which to form contentions pursuant to the Board's Order of April 20, 1984.

8. Censorship of the plan was so broad that even information in the public domain has been with. held (see page E-1-7; capacity of infirmary at S.C.I.G.).

9. Information in said plan is irreconcilable with information given in Applicant's initial evacuation plan filed March 17,1981 App. H s4.1 (attached as Exhibit "B") .

10. Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency and the Governor's Energy Council have joined in a request to withhold confidential portions of said plan from the public citing 10 C.F.R. 2.790(d) as authority.

11. Inmates at S.C.I.G. object to the withholding of confidential information, and request the Board to issue a protective Order allowing counsel and any recognized experts to review the entire plan under appropriate circumstances.

12. Inmates also request that the twenty day time period allowed for the filing of their contentions not begin until full disclosure of the plan is permitted under the appro-priate circumstances.
