Foreword i

Digests and indexes for issuances of the Commission (CLI), the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel (LBP), the Administrative Law Judges (ALJ),

the Directors' Decisions (DD), and the Denials of Petitions for Rulemaking (DPRM) are presented in this document. Rese digests and indexes are intended to serve as a guide to the issuances.

l Information elements common to the cases heard and ruled upon are:

Case name (owner (s) of facility)

Full text reference (volume and pagination)

Issuance number Issues raised by appellants Legal citations (cases, regulations, and statutes)

Name of facility, Docket number Subject matter ofissues and/or rulings Type of hearing (for construction pennit, operating license, etc.)

Type of issuance (memoranuum, order, decision, etc.).

These information elements are displayed in one or more of five separate formats arranged as follows:

1. Case Name Index ne case name index is an alphabetical arrangement of the case names of the issuances. Each case name is followed by the type of h:aring, the type of issuance, docket number, issuance number, and full text reference.
2. Digests and Ileaders l

l The headers and digests are presented in issuance number order as follows:

the Commission (CLI;, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel (LBP),

l the Administrative Law Judge (AU), the Directors' Decisions (DD), and the Denials of Petitions for Rulemaking (DPRM).

He header identifies the issuance by issuance number, case name, facility j

name, docket number, type of hearing, date of issuance, and type of issuance.

The digest is a brief narrative of an issue followed by the resolution of the issue and any legal references used in resolving the issue. If a given issuance covers more than one issue, then separate digests are used for each issue and are designated alphabetically.

3. Legal Citations Index This index is divided into four parts and consists of alphabetical or alpha-numerical arrangements of Cases, Regulations, Statutes, and Others. These citations are listed as given in the issuances. Changes in regulations and statutes may have occurred to cause changes in the number or name and/or applicability of the citation, it is therefore important to consider the date of the issuance.

l

'Ihc references to cases, regulations, statutes, and others are generally l

followed by phrases that show the application of the citation in the particular issuance. These phrases are followed by the issuance number and the full text reference.

4. Subject Index Subject words and/or phrases, arranged alphabetically, indicate the issues and subjects covered in the issuances. 'Ihc subject headings are followed by phrases that give specific information about the subject, as discussed in the issuances being indexed. These phrases are followed by the issuance number and the full text reference.

)

A The Commission denies a petition to intervene and request for a hearing on a heense application for the export of 280 kilograms of higb<nnched uraniuns in the form of mixed uranium and thorium carbide 3

fabricated as unirradiated fuel, to COGEMA in France to be processed for recovery of the uranium and i

i under the Atomic Energy Act and that a hearing, as a matter of discretion, wouki not be in the pubhe f

interest and is not needed to assist the Commission in umking the deierminations required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, for issuance of tir export hcense.

C Section 304(bX2) of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act of 1978 mandates that the Commission

[

establish procedures for pubbe participation in nuclear export licensing proceedings when the Commission

/

{

finds that such participation will be in the public interest and will assist the Commission in making the 7

a statutory determinations required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. The criteria set out in 10 x

CF.R. 6 !!0.84(a) for granting a hearing in export licensing cases as a matter of discretion acwmmodate

CLI 94-2 SACRAMENTO MUNICIPAL IJTILITY DISTRICT (Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Stanon),

2 Docket No. 54312 DCOM, DECOMMISSIONING; March 1,1994; MEMORANDUM AND ORDER j

A

%e Comrmssion denies Sacranento Municipal Uchty District's petition for review and motion for l

directed certification of LBP-93-23,38 NRC 200 (1993),in which the Atomic Safety and Ucensing Board,

/

inter alia, admined a contention filed by Environmental and Resources Conservation Orgamzation.

B Although interlocutory review is disfavored and generally is not allowed as of right under our rules j

of practice (see 10 C.F.R. 6 2.730(f)), the criteria in section 2.786(g) reflect the limited circumstances in 7

wluch interlocutory review may be appropriate in a procec&ng.

I C

The mere expansion of issues rarely, if ever, has been found to affect the basic structure of a proccesng in a pervasive or unusual manner so as to warrant interlocutory review pursuant to section 2.786(gX2).

j CLI-94-3 YANKEE ATOMIC ELECTRIC COMPANY (Yankee Nuclear Power Station), Docket No. 5429, i

REQUEST FOR ACTION, March 18,1994 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER 1

A The Commission denies the request of Petiuoner, Environnentahsts, Inc., for an adjudicatory heanng regardmg decommissioning plans for the Yankee Nuclear Power Station. The Commission finds that the Peutioner has filed to identify any action taken by the NRC that requires the offer of a hearing.

The Commission notes that even if Petitioner had identified such an accon, it has failed to allege an interest to justify intervention in such a proceeding; and that, furthermore, Petitioner has not demonstrated that a

&scretionary hearing is warranted.

D De Comnussion will decline a grant of a petitioner's request to hah decommissioning activines where a petidoner has failed to address, much less satisfy, the four tra&tional cntena for injunct we relief:

DIGESTS 15SUANCES OF THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION (1) irreparable injury, (2) probability of success on de nerits. (3) lack ofinjury to others, and (4) the pubbe interest. Any request for energency sebef should address those criteria.

C The only "right" to an opportunity for a hearing under section 189 of the Atomic Energy Act exists for those actions that are idenuned in section 189.

D NRC reguladons exphcitly provide only for nonce to be given to the pubhc regarding Commission approval of a proposed decommissioning plan.10 CFA 9 50.82(e).

E Under NRC regulations, a licensee may mnks changes to its facility without prior Commission approval if those changes do not involve an unreviewed safety question or do not violate the terms of the bcense.10 Cf.Il 6 50.59(aXI).

F A meniber of the public may cl.allenge an action taken under 10 Cf.R. I50.59 (changes to a facility) only by means of a petition under 10 CFA (2.206.

. Under 10 Cf.R. 8 71.12, an NRC heensee is giwn a general license to ship or transport material G

that is subject to NRC licene in an NRC-approved package widmut approval by the Commission.

H Concerns regardmg acceptance by a low-level waste facihty reguised by an Agreenunt State Program of matenals removed isom a nuclear power plant must be directed to the state in which the facihty resides, not the NRC.

I A low-level masse facihty can accept special nuclear matenal (SNM) for disposal only under an NRC license that it holds, not under a state license under which the facihty has accepted reactor materials f

and components removed from a nuclear power plant site.

J Assunung there exists an NRC proceeding on the issues of concern to a petidoner, that petidoner must satisfy the minimum requirements of 10 Cf.R. I 2.714 which governs intervention in NRC proceedings.

K In order to saisfy the criteria for grard of a petition for intervendon, a pedtioner umst allege a concrete and particularized injury that is fairly traceable to de challenged action and is hkely to be redressed i

by a favorable decision.10 Cf.R. I 2.714(aX2).

L la order to nret the test far organiza6onal stanchng, an organizadon must allege: (1) that the

)

action will cause an " injury in fact" to either (a) the orgamzadon's interests or (b) the interests of its rnembers; and (2) that the injury is within the " zone of interests" protected by either the AEA, de Energy Recrganization Act (ERA), or the National Environrnental Policy Act (NEPA).

M A petitioner's identi6 cation of four organizational members whose interests have allegedly been j

injured or might be injured by accons taken in relation to the decommissioning process does not sansfy the Snjury in fact" piong of the orgamzational standing test wlere those nrmhers live near the proposed site for the dasposal of scactor materials and components and not near the site of the nuclear power plant from which the materials are to be removed.

N Where a petiboner's organizauonal address is farther than 50 miles nom a nuclear power plant site,it is outside ewn the radms within which the NRC normally presumes standing for those actions that l

may have sigm6 cant offsite consequences at plaras that are operating at full power.

O A heanng pedtion or supplementary pention that does not allege any concrete or particularized injury that would occor as a result of the transportanon of reactor materials or components to a low-level waste facihty, fails to demonstrate any " injury in fact."

P A hearing pention or supplenentary petition that alleges only that petitioner's members live "close" j

to transportation routes that will be used for shipnents of reactor materials and components to a low level waste facihty and does not identify those routes or explain how "close" to those routes the petitioner's numbers actually live, fails to demonsuate " injury in fact."

Q Under secoon 16)(c) of the AEA, the Commission has the inhemat discretion to insotute a proceedmg even where none is required by law.

R The institunon of a proceeding where one is not required is appropriate only where substantial health and safety issues have been identihed.

B As a creature of the Congress, the agency can only wield that enforcement authonty it has been 6

given by legislative enactment. See 5 U.S.C 1558(b).

C C

Previous judicial interpretanon makes it clear that the Commission's enforcement authority under sections 16th,161i(31 and 186a of the Atomic Energy Act (AEA), 42 U.S C. Il220l(bk 2201(iX3),

2236(a), is wide ranging, perhaps uniquely so. See Siegel v. AEC,400 F.2d 778,783 (D.C Cir.1968).

I D

The Commission's broad authority under AEA section 182,42 U.S C 6 2232(a). to de6ne regulatory

]

requirenrnes hkewise has received judicial recognition. See Union of Concerned Scientists v. NRC,880 F.2d 552,558 (D.C Cir.1989) (determination of what consututes " adequate protection" of the public heahh 3

and safety for reactor facihties under section 182 is a matter congressionally comnuned to the Commission's sound &scretion).

?

E A valid agency order mandaung requirenrnts for a particular heensee is on an equal footing with a vahd regulation affecting licensees generally. See AEA i161b,42 U.S.C 1220l(b). See also Wrangler

~i laboratones, ALAB-951,33 NRC 505,518 & n.39 (1991).

l F

The choice of whether to use a general rule or an individual order to estabbsh a standard is one r

within "the informed discretion" of the agency. See NI.RB v. Bell Aerospace Co.,416 U.S. 267, 294 (1974); SEC v. Chencry Corp., 332 U.S.194, 203 (1947). This pnnciple recognizes that in the face of l

a broad congressional mandate such as that given to the NRC, an agency simply cannot be expected to 2

j anticipate and promulgate a rule relative to each activity that a regulated entity undertakes. Therefore, to

[

permit administratiw agencies to deal effectively with the varied, complex regulatory problems they face, j

j those agencies rnust retain the power to address those problems on a caserby-case basis by issuing orders.

g See Chenery,416 U.S. at 203. In the words of the Suprene Court, to do otherwise "is to exalt form over necessity." Id. at 202.

O There snay be instances when an agency's determinauon to proceed by order rather than rulemaking would amount to an abuse of Ascretion. See Dell Aerospace,416 U.S. at 294.

H A general "due process" concern about the agency's failure to give expbcit pnor notice of the standards set forth in an order generaDy is not suf6cient to estabhsh an agency abuse of discreuon in making a choice to proceed by order rather than by regulation, given the Supreme Court's recogmtion of the discretion afforckd agencies to utilize individual orders to establish bindmg standards. See Bearer East, i

inc. v. EPA, Region III, %3 F.2d 603,609 (3d Cir.1992).

1 I

In determining whether an agency has abused its discretion in choosing to proceed by order rather I

i than regulation, the critical factor appears to be whether the challeriged agen y order "6ll[s] interstices in i

the law" or wheder it creates a new standard, cirher because the order overrules past precedents rehed 5

l DIGESTS ISSUANCES OF Tile ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARDS upon by the party subject to the rubog or because it is as issue of 6rst impression. See United food &

Commercial Workers International Union, local No.150 A v. NLRB,1 F.3d 24,34 (D C Cir.1993). Only in the latter instance is a concera about the retroncave applicadon of the order warranted.

J When it relies on the agency's general statutory rnandate to " protect the public health and safety" instead of a specafic, previously issued regulation, order, segulatory guide, or license condidon as the basis for imposing an enforcement sanction, the Staff must be prepared to establish with specificity the health and safety consegences of the bcensee action or inaction about which it complains. Ultinately, the Staff nest show how the standard to which it would hold the licensee (and presumably others similarly situated) tegard ng those maners is a reasonable component of agency's general statutory mandate to protect the public health and safety.

K After au factual allegations in an issue speci6ed is an enforcement proceeding are presumed to be true and all reasonable inferences are made io favor of the party sponsoring the issue,if there is no set of facts that would endtle that party to relief on the issues, dismissal is appropriate. See Hishon v. King &

Spalang. 467 U.S. 69,73 (1984).

L Consistent with the analogous agency tules regarding contenuons 6led by intervenors, see 10 C F.R.

12.714(dX2Xii), it is within the IJcensmg Board's authonty in an enforcenent proceeding to entertain a Staff monon seeking dismissal of issues speci6ed by the opposing party. See 10 C.F.R. 5 2.718.

M W Conurussion intended to de6ne the scape of an enforcement proceeding under 10 C.F.R. 12.202 to hmit the Licensing Boani to a determination regarding the suf6ciency of the legal and factual pre & cates oudined in the Staffs enforcenent order as of the time the order was issued. %e essent to winch j

subsequent circumstances warrant agency acdon to modify or withdraw a suspension order generally is a matter that is within the &scredon of the Staff and is not subject to consideration in an agency adjudication.

Cf. San 1.nis Obispo Mothers for peace v. NRC,751 F.2d 1287.1314 (D.C Cir.1984), vacated in part and rehearing en banc gransed on other grounds,760 F.2d 1320 (1985), aff'd en banc,789 F.2d 26, cert.

)

devued,479 U.S. 923 (1986).

N The question of the presiding officer's authority to consider whether the Staff should act so revine or withdraw a challenged suspension order can be distinguished from instances in which the Staff actually has acted (1) to mo&fy or withdraw a previously issued order during the pendency of an adjudicatory proceeding regarding that order, or (2) to enter into an agreement to take such actions to seule a procce&ng.

la both of the latter instances, agency rules provide that the Staff's action is subject to scrutiny by the presiang of6cer. See 10 C.F.R. Il2.203,2.717fb).

LDP-94-3 GULF STATES UrlLITIES COMPANY, et at (River Bend Station, Unit 1), Docket No. 50-f 458-OLA (ASLBP No.93-680 040LA); OPERATING LICENSE AMENDMENT; January 27, 1994; MEMOltANDUM AND ORDER (On Petition to Intervene) i A

In this Decision, the ljcensing Board grants a peution to intervene and request for a hearing.

I Stan&ng was granted on the basis that the property interest of a petitioner in a nuclear facihty, who was a co-owner of the facility, might be jeopardized by potential ensafe operation of the facihty caused by underfunding. The Board accepted one of seven contentions. The accepted contention was based on potential unsafe operanon of the facihty caus-d by a lack of fun &ng.

B license amendnents can be made immediately effective solely at the discretion of NRC Staff,

)

following a determination by Staff that there are no significant hazards considerations involved. Immediate effectiveness 6a&ngs are not subject to review by licensing boards.

C in past NRC cases, stan&ng based on injury to property has been denied because the property interests in question were too far removed from the purpose of the underlying statutes governing those proceedings. Those cases primanly involved economic interests of ratepayers and taxpayers or general concerns about a facility's impact on local utility rates and the local economy. Notwithstandmg the ratepayerhaxpayer line of cases, property interests can confer standing since the Atomic Energy Act affords radiological protection for both human life and property. There is standing in this procce&ng since the Petitioner's stated interest is to protect its property, the nuclear facihty, from radiological hazards arising from the facility's unsafe operation.

D Injury in-fact in this procec&ng was based upon potential damage to a co-owner's property interest in a nuclear facihty. Potential property damage included loss of the co owner's share of the facility, kiss of plant power and revenue, and potential habihty to third parties from radiological accidents.

ISSUANCES OF THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARDS 1

E A petitioner need not estab ish that injury will inevit:,Li; result from the proposed action to show 1

an injury in fact, but only that it may be injured in fact by the proposed action.

F Licensee's argument that a lack of fun &ng could not adversely affect plant safety because the plaat would be safely shut down is rejected by the board. This argunent contradicts the radonale of 10 C.F.R. 50.33(f)(2993) requiring appbcants for operstmg licenses to demonstrate that they possess reasonable assurance of obtaining funds necessary to cover estimated operation costs for the period of the licenses.

O Although an electnc utihty's 6aancial quah6 canon usually cannot be the subject of litigation in t

NRC operating license proceedmgr., this exernption does not apply to operators of a nuclear facility that are i

not electric utilities.

H Absent ra&ological heahh and asfety concerns, environmental concerns, or antitrust matters subject to NRC license con &tions, contractual disputes between co owners is nuclear facihties ordinarily should be l

resolved by the appropriais state, local, or federal court.

I Contractual esputes among electric utihties regarang interconnection and transmission provisions, rates for electric power and services, cost-sharing agreernents,loog-term and short-term planning functions, j

l and similar, utility 4 elated operational agreenents are matters that fall within the jurisdiction of FERC or j

Material Ucen e No. SUB-1030); ENIORCEMENT; February 24,1994; MEMORANDUM AND ORDER (Granting intervention Motion; Referring Ruling to the Comnussion)

A in this pruceeding concerning a Staff enforcenent order issued in accordance with 10 C F.R.

(2.202, the Licensing Board grants a petition for leave to intervene, concluding that (1) interverition in support of a Staff enfarrenent order is permitted, (2) the Ittitioner established its stan&ng to intervene in this particular proceeding; and (3) the intervention motion was timely filed. Ad&tionally, the Ucensing 1

Board refers its ruling on the first mattes to the Commission for its review.

(

B Once a party to whorn a Staff enforcenient order is directed requests a hearing, a person favoring I

the order is presented with the likelihood that an adjudicatory pmceeding would be conducted that could have two possible outcomes: the presiding officer wouki fully sustain the order or it would not, either became the presieng officer would reject the order in whole or in part or because the order would be l

i 1

l modihed or withdrawn by some unilateral Staff action or by a settlement between the Staff and the parties contesting the order. Given these two possible outcomes, only if the person supporung the enforcenent i

order is permitted to participate in the proceeding can it protect its interest in seeing that the order and the requirenents the order irnposes are sustained. Therefore,if the person supporting tte order also can l

establish a particularized injury that it or its members will suffer in the event the order is not sustained, i' is entitled to intervene as of right as a

C A Staff action to relax or rescind the con &tions in an enforament order that is the subject of an ongoing adjudication would be subject to review by tir ;4esidmg officer with input from 611 parties so the proceedmg. See Oncology Servims Corp., LBP-94-2,39 NRC 11,26 n 12 (1994).

I

(

D Pursuant to 10 Cf R. 6 2.203, any settlement between the Staff and any of the pames subject to an enforcement order must be reviewed and approved by the presiding of6cer. In such a circumstance, a panicipant intervening in support of the order would have an opportunirj 1o vindicate its imerest in having tir order sustained fully by demonstrating why the seulenent proposal would not be in the public interest.

E la assessing whether an intervenor has made the necessary showing of particularized injury to estabbsh its right to intervene in a proceeding, the presiding ofncer is constrained to apply contemporaneous judicial concepts of standing.

DIGESTS ISSUANCES OF Tile ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARDS CLI-93 21,38 NRC 87,92 (1993). This requires that the pesiang officer assess whether Cw intervenor will suffer any " injury in fact" relative to its interests in de procee&ng and whether those alleged interests are withis the " zone of interests" protected by the perunent statutes and reguladons under which the petitioner seeks to participate in the proceeding. See id.

F To estabbah de requisite injury in fact, a petitioner snust allege a concrete and particularized injury that is fairly traceable to the action at issue and is likely to be redressed by a favorable decision in the pucceding See Perry, CLI-93-21,38 NRC at 92.

G la reviewing affidavits on the issue of wheder a petiooner has establisted its injury in fact so as to I

have stan&ng to intervene, the presidmg officer nest bear in mind the often-repeated admonicon to avoid I

"the famihar trap of confusing the stan&ng determinanon with the assessment of petitioner's case on tie nents." City of Los Angeles v. National Highway Traf6c Safety Administration,912 F.2d 478. 495 (D C Or.1990)(citations omitted)

H if, on Ow basis of the presentations by the participants, the pesi&ng officer is unable to conclude relative to an intervenor's properr, that there is "no potennal for offsite consequences" from contamination from a licensee's site, see Ferry, CLI-93-21,38 NRC at 95, then there has been a sufficient demonstration ofinjury in fact to provide standing to interwne as of right in a proceeding.

I Although 10 C.F.R. 52.714(aXI) has been interpreted to require that the late-filed factors be addressed in the imtial late intervention petition, it is within a presi&ng of6cer's discretion to permit an intervenor to make a belaied lateness showing. See Boston Edison Co. (Pilgnm Nuclear Fuwer Station),

ALAB.816,22 NRC 461. 466 68 (1985).

J In interpreung a statute or regulation, the usual inference is that different language is intended to mean efferent things. See Umred States e. Stauffer Chemical Co.,684 F.2d 1174,1186 (6di Cir.1982),

affd,464 U.S.165 (1984).

K The inference regarding differing neanings for difIering language might be negated by a showing that the purpose or history behind the language demonstrates that no efference was intended. See Stauffer Chemical Co.,684 F.2d at 1186.

L For an intervenor who wishes to become a party to a hearing to protect its interest in seeing that the Staff enforcenent order challenged in a proceeding is sustained, the matter adversely affectmg the petitioner's interest is not the " order," with which it agrees, but the agency's " proceeding" selative to that order, which carries the potential for overturning or mo&fying the order in derogation of the pennoner's interests. Therefore, the language of 10 C.F.R. 6 2.202(aX3) estabbshing a 204 fay deadline for hearing i

I requests by any person " adversely affected by the order" is not applicable to such a petitioner. Instead, the pentioner's intervendon is gewerned by the terms of 10 C.F.R. 6 2.714(aKI), which is appbcable to "lalny person whose interest may be affected by a proceedmg," and is subject to any time hrruts that are estabhshed in accordance with that section.

M If the only agency issuance provieng constructive nonce of a filing deadhne for heanng requests is a Staff enformment order issued in accordance with 10 CF.R. 6 2.202(aX3) that, by its ternu, is not applicable to persons who wish to intervene in support of the order, then an intervention petioon filed by such a person cannot be deened unumely for failing to meet an appropnately noticed 6hng deadhne.

N Even in the absence of any constructive nonce of when an intervention peution rnust be 6ted, the possitnhry rernains that an intervenor had actual notice of de pendency of an enforcenent proceeding and j

failed to make a twely intervendon request following that notice. See 54 Fed. Reg. 8269, 8272 (1989).

O Because it is their interest in the proceedmg" rather than the " order" that is relevant for a person wishing to intervene in support of a Staff enforcement order, the perunent actual notice was that affording the intervenor knowledge that an adjudicatory proceeding would be commenced. Receipt of the hearing request of a person adversely affected by the order constitutes such nonce. By 6 ting an intervention motion widun 10 days after receipt of such a hearing request, an intervenor acts seasonably relative to that actual nonce. Compare 10 C.F.R. I 21205(cX2Xi)(hearing request must be hied within 30 days of actual nonce).

P Until a determination is made that an intervenor has proffered a litigable contention, a presi&ng officer's ruling that the petitioner has estahhshed its standing is not 6nal so as to be appealable pursuant to 10 C.F.R.12.714a.

Q Because the question of whether intervenuon as of right exists for a petitioner that wants to emer a 10 C.FA ( 2.202 enforcement order proceeding to support the Staff's order is of sone nement for the l

structure of diis proceeding, as well as the Conmussion's adjudicmory process generally, and in order to alleviate any delay in Cornnussion consideration of this matier pending the Licensing Board's determinanon regarding the admissibihty of the intervenor's contentions, in acccedance with 10 C.F.R.12.730(f) it is appropriate for the Board to refer its ruhng on the petitioner's right to intervene to the Commission for its imme& ate review. Cf. Statenrnt of Policy on Car, duct of Ucensing Proceedings, C1181-8,13 NRC 452,4%57 (1981)(in licensing hearings, licensing boards should seek Commission guidance on signi6 cant legal or policy questions and should do 30 in a manner that will avoid delay in the procecdmg).

A Factual informauon contained in a 4ompleted inwst4ation report will be segregated and released if there is no speci6c allegation of how the release would hurt a future enforcement action or deter future i

1 predecisional communications within the Staff of the Comnussion.

B The Board reviewed the Rules of Practice,10 C.F R. 62.790(aX5) and (a)(7) as well as the i

"Statenes of Policy, lavestigations, inspections, and Adju6catory Proceedings," 49 Fed. Reg. 36,032-34 (1984). It concluded that both docununts required the release both of factualinformation and of the Staff's opinions in the Of6ce of Investigation Report. The Board was heavily influenced by: (1) the failure to allege any specine adverse inplications for an enforcenent accon; and (2) the Staff's decision to release the Ofhce of Investigation Report, tims narrowing the effect of an immediate releam of requested information.

The Board reasoned that since the report would be released anyway, there would be litik adverse impact on the Staff from releasing it now.

C Discovery of Staff docunents may be appropriate when there is no specihc allegation of an adverse impact either on a future enforcenent action or on intra-Staff discussions.

D The "Statemem of Policy: Investigations, Inspections and Adjudicatory Procedure" requires the release of Staff docuness after an investigation is complete and during the period of Staff evaluation of that investigation. Contrary language found in the Statement is by way of pieliminary explanation and is not as signi6 cant as the operative language, which escludes any esemption from releasing Staff docunents during a time that investigation results are being evaluated.

E When the Staff of the Commission requests that docununts be treated as privileged, the Board may exercise its authority as presiding ofncer and may release docunents. However,it should hmit its ruling to what is newssary to fairly adjudicate the pending case, and it may require release pursuant to a pmtecove order is order to sasisfy a Staff request to avoid publicity during a continuing process of evaluating the results of an investigation.

A in this proceeding concerning a Staff enfurcemem order issued in accordance with 10 C.F.R. 12.202, the Ucensing Board concludes that an intervenor wishing to participate in the pmceedmg to support the Staff's enforcemem order has presemed two lingable comentmas B

NRC regulations require that an admissible comention consist of (1) a specinc statenrnt of the issue to be raised or converted; (2) a brief explanation of the bases for the comention; (3) a concise statenrnt of the alleged facts or expert opinion supporting the cornention on which the petitioner intends to rely in proving the contention at any hearing; and (4) sufficient information to show that a genuine dispute exists on a material issue of law or fact. See 10 C.F R. 6 2.714(bX2). A failure to comply with any of these requirements is grounds for dismissing the comemion.
