IN RESPONSE, PLEASE July 7, 2004
The Commission1 approved a Memorandum and Order responding to a motion by Pacific Gas & Electric Co. to terminate the NRC proceeding and a request by the City of Santa Clara that the Commission vacate CLI-03-02. The Memorandum and Order terminated the NRC proceeding and denied Santa Clara's request to vacate CLI-03-02. (Subsequently, on July 7, 2004, the Secretary signed the Memorandum and Order.)
The Commission approved a Memorandum and Order responding to the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board's certified questions regarding admissibility of a security contention and related questions. The Memorandum and Order held that the Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League's Security Contention 1 is inadmissible and declined to reconsider the Commission's prior "need to know" decision in CLI-04-06. (Subsequently, on July 7, 2004, the Secretary signed the Memorandum and Order.) The staff should begin rulemaking to codify the DBT orders at the earliest possible opportunity.
The Commission approved an Order designating an official to serve as the Pre-License Application Presiding Officer (PAPO) to rule on disputes among the participants over the electronic availability of documents during the pre-license application phase for high-level radioactive waste repository licensing. The Order designated the Chief Administrative Judge of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, G. Paul Bollwerk, III, to serve as the Pre-License Application Presiding Officer, and authorized him to delegate that authority. (Subsequently, on July 7, 2004, the Secretary signed the Order.)
