INTERVENORS' MOTION FOR EXPEDITED CONSIDERATION Intervenors support expedition of Edison's appeal of LBP-84-2 (Initial Decision) dated January 13, 1984.
The economic consequences of Edison's inadequate quality assurance program at Byron, a set forth at length in Edison's Motion for Expedited Consideration, filed January 24, are such that expedition is important to Edison ratepayers, including the members of Intervenors' organizations.

INTERVENORS' MOTION FOR EXPEDITED CONSIDERATION Intervenors support expedition of Edison's appeal of LBP-84-2 (Initial Decision) dated January 13, 1984.

The economic consequences of Edison's inadequate quality assurance program at Byron, a set forth at length in Edison's Motion for Expedited Consideration, filed January 24, are such that expedition is important to Edison ratepayers, including the members of Intervenors' organizations.

However, we oppose the unfair schedule proposed by Edison, and offer an alternative.

The Board's decision was issued on January 13, 1984 Edison's Notice of Appeal was filed 10 days later.

If Edison had prompt-ly filed its notice of appeal, its brief would be due in 30 days (10 C.F.R. 52.762(b)) or on February 13, the same date proposed in Edison's schedule.

respond, or until March 14.

($2.762(c))

Thus, under normal

' Appeal Board practice, all briefing would have been completed by March _14.

In contrast, Edison has proposed a schedule that expedites only Intervenors' and the staff's briefs.

Moreover, Edison has added 'seven. additional days to the end of the schedule for a reply brief, even though no reply is contemplated under the regulations.

Accordingly, Intervenors propose the following schedule, which would conclude briefing by the same date proposed by Edison:

Edison's Brief:

February 13, 1984 (30 days from service of the licensing board's decision on Edison.)

Intervenors' and Staff Briefs :

March 12, 1984 (28 days from service of Edison's brief.)

While economic considerations require expedition, this Board's paramount concern - the safety of the Byron plant -

requires sufficient time for responsible briefing.

Intervencrs' schedule would allow fair and adequate time for all parties,

whereas Edison proposes expedition at the expense of other parties.

Edison's proposal is inconsistent with a full and fair adversary presentation to this Board.

We accordingly ask the Board to adopt intervenors ' proposed schedule, or any other
