BRANcn%'y-Harold R. Denton Director U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 7920 Norfolk Avenue Bethesda, Maryland 20814 Re: Shoreham Nuclear Power Station; Docket No. 50-322-OL-3
Dear Mr. Denton:
This concerns the Long Island Lighting Company's letter. to-you dated June 20, 1986. Therein, LILCO states that the recent decision of the Nassau County Board of Supervisors that prohibits the use of any of Nassau County's facilities, including the Coliseum, is either of no consequence, or of uncertain consequence to LILCO's pending application for a license to operate the Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant. LILCO's claim is that i
despite the decision of the Board of Supervisors, ". . . the l authority to make use of the Coliseum and other Nassau County facilities in an emergency rests with the County Executive; and l
the County Executive has said that in the event of an accident at l Shoreham he would in fact make use of whatever resources were available to him, including the Coliseum." LILCO misstates both the law and the effect of the Board of Supervisors' decision.
First, NUREG-0654 specifies the need for an " agreement" between LILCO and a relocation center. E.g., NUREG-0654, 5 II.A.3.
The Staff's witnesses during the Shoreham hearings l
emphasized the need for such an agreement. See Direct Testimony Kowieski, and of Thomas E. Baldwin, Joseph H. Keller, Roger B.
l Philip H. McIntire Concerning Phase II Emergency Planning, April 17, 1984, p. 20; Tr. 14,201, 14,221-22, 14,269, 14,270.
Previously, LILCO identifed the Nassau Coliseum and offered a purported agreement with the lessee of the Coliseum to meet this requirement of NUREG-0654. However, the Nassau County Board of 8607090215 860701 PDR ADOCK 05000322
/b o
KIRKPATRICK & LOCKHART Harold R. Denton July 1, 1986 Page 2 Supervisors declarad this purported agreement "a nullity, contrary to law, and void." Therefore, LILCO does not comply with NUREG-0654.
Second, LILCO implies that it has the assurance of the Nassau County Executive that the Coliseum would be used in an emergency. Even if that were so, such assurance could not substitute for the required agreement. Nevertheless, there as shown by the statement of Nassau is in fact no such assurance, County Executive Purcell's spokeswoman, Purcell has who isofficially never quoted inmade Newsday, such June 28, as saying, ". . .
(Copy of Newsday article attached.)
a statement to the utility."
In view of the foregoing, LILCO clearly does not comply with LILCO's the relocation center requirement of NUREG-0654.
Revision 7 of its plan, which relies upon the Coliseum, should therefore be rejected by the Staff.
Very truly yours,
