the manner in which his or her interest 

is adversely affected by this Order and 

shall address the criteria set forth in 10 

CFR 2.309(d) and (f). 

If Joseph S. Shepherd or a person 

whose interest is adversely affected 

requests a hearing, the Commission will 

issue an Order designating the time and 

place of any hearing. If a hearing is held, 

the issue to be considered at such 

hearing shall be whether this Order 

should be sustained. 

Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.202(c)(2)(i), 

Joseph S. Shepherd, or any other person 

adversely affected by this Order may, in 

addition to demanding a hearing, at the 

time the answer is filed or sooner, move 

the presiding officer to set aside the 

immediate effectiveness of the Order on 

the ground that the Order, including the 

need for immediate effectiveness, is not 

based on adequate evidence but on mere 

suspicion, unfounded allegations, or 

error. The motion must state with 

particularity the reasons why the Order 

is not based on adequate evidence and 

must be accompanied by affidavits or 

other evidence relied on. 

A request for a hearing or to set aside 

the immediate effectiveness of this order 

must be filed in accordance with the 

NRC E-Filing rule, which became 

effective on October 15, 2007. The NRC 

E-filing Final Rule was issued on 

August, 28 2007, (72 FR 49,139) and 

codified in pertinent part at 10 CFR Part 

2, Subpart B. The E-Filing process 

requires participants to submit and 

serve documents over the internet or, in 

some cases, to mail copies on electronic 

optical storage media. Participants may 

not submit paper copies of their filings 

unless they seek a waiver in accordance 

with the procedures described below. 

To comply with the procedural 

requirements associated with E-Filing, 

at least five (5) days prior to the filing 

deadline the requestor must contact the 

Office of the Secretary by e-mail at 

HEARINGDOCKET@NRC.GOV, or by 

calling (301) 415–1677, to request (1) a 

digital ID certificate, which allows the 

participant (or its counsel or 

representative) to digitally sign 

documents and access the E-Submittal 

server for any NRC proceeding in which 

it is participating; and/or (2) creation of 

an electronic docket for the proceeding 

(even in instances when the requestor 

(or its counsel or representative) already 

holds an NRC-issued digital ID 

certificate). Each requestor will need to 

download the Workplace Forms 

ViewerTM to access the Electronic 

Information Exchange (EIE), a 

component of the E-Filing system. The 

Workplace Forms ViewerTM is free and 

is available at http://www.nrc.gov/sitehelp/e-submittals/install-viewer.html. 

Information about applying for a digital 

ID certificate also is available on NRC’s 

public Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/ 

site-help/e-submittals/applycertificates.html. 

Once a requestor has obtained a 

digital ID certificate, had a docket 

created, and downloaded the EIE 

viewer, it can then submit a request for 

a hearing through EIE. Submissions 

should be in Portable Document Format 

(PDF) in accordance with NRC guidance 

available on the NRC public Web site at 

http://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html. A filing is considered 

complete at the time the filer submits its 

document through EIE. To be timely, 

electronic filings must be submitted to 

the EIE system no later than 11:59 p.m. 

Eastern Time on the due date. Upon 

receipt of a transmission, the E-Filing 

system time-stamps the document and 

sends the submitter an e-mail notice 

confirming receipt of the document. The 

EIE system also distributes an e-mail 

notice that provides access to the 

document to the NRC Office of the 

General Counsel and any others who 

have advised the Office of the Secretary 

that they wish to participate in the 

proceeding, so that the filer need not 

serve the document on those 

participants separately. Therefore, any 

others who wish to participate in the 

proceeding (or their counsel or 

representative) must apply for and 

receive a digital ID certificate before a 

hearing request is filed so that they may 

obtain access to the document via the EFiling system. 

A person filing electronically may 

seek assistance through the ‘‘Contact 

Us’’ link located on the NRC Web site 

at http://www.nrc.gov/site-help/esubmittals.html or by calling the NRC 

technical help line, which is available 

between 8:30 a.m. and 4:15 p.m., 

Eastern Time, Monday through Friday. 

The help line number is (800) 397–4209 

or locally, (301) 415–4737. 

Participants who believe that they 

have good cause for not submitting 

documents electronically must file a 

motion, in accordance with 10 CFR 

2.302(g), with their initial paper filing 

requesting authorization to continue to 

submit documents in paper format. 

Such filings must be submitted by (1) 

first class mail addressed to the Office 

of the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 

Washington, DC 20555–0001, Attention: 

Rulemaking and Adjudications Staff; or 

(2) courier, express mail, or expedited 

delivery service to the Office of the 

Secretary, Sixteenth Floor, One White 

Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike, 

Rockville, Maryland 20852, Attention: 

Rulemaking and Adjudications Staff. 

Participants filing a document in this 

manner are responsible for serving the 

document on all other participants. 

Filing is considered complete by firstclass mail as of the time of deposit in 

the mail, or by courier, express mail, or 

expedited delivery service upon 

depositing the document with the 

provider of the service. 

Documents submitted in adjudicatory 

proceedings will appear in NRC’s 

electronic hearing docket which is 

available to the public at http://ehd.nrc.

gov/EHD_Proceeding/home.asp, unless 

excluded pursuant to an order of the 

Commission, an Atomic Safety and 

Licensing Board, or a Presiding Officer. 

Participants are requested not to include 

personal privacy information, such as 

social security numbers, home 

addresses, or home phone numbers in 

their filings. With respect to copyrighted 

works, except for limited excerpts that 

serve the purpose of the adjudicatory 

filings and would constitute a Fair Use 

application, Participants are requested 

not to include copyrighted materials in 

their works. 

In the absence of any request for 

hearing, or written approval of an 

extension of time in which to request a 

hearing, this Order shall be final 20 days 

from the date of this Order without 

further order or proceedings. If an 

extension of time for requesting a 

hearing has been approved, the 

provisions specified in Section IV shall 

be final when the extension expires if a 

hearing request has not been received. 

An answer or request for hearing shall 

not stay the immediate effectiveness of 

this order. 

Dated this 8th day of September 2008. 

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
