CREDIT CARDS HONORED, MAIL PHONE ORDERS ACCEPTED. Grumman Building Cogeneration Plant By Susan Howard The Grumman Corp. is preparing to take over for LILCO at the aerospace company's Bethpage headquarters. Grumman, Long Island's largest employer, broke ground yesterday on its $64-million cogeneration power plant, which will provide electricity and steam to its Bethpage operations by July, 1989 a time when Long Island probably will need more electricity if the Shoreham nuclear power plant is not on line. The plant, the largest of its kind on Long Island, will provide steam for the company's operations and about 50 megawatts of electricity, enough to supply the power for 25,000 homes at one time.

Grumman expects to use about 30 megawatts, meaning LILCO will have to purchase the remainder under a federal law. As part of a 15-year contract, Grumman will lease its property and buy its electricity from TBG Cogen Partners, a joint-venture operation of General Electric Brooklyn Union Gas Co. and J. Makowski Associates a venture management company. "This is an agreement where we've said, 'you raise all the chickens, and we'll buy all of them from 99 Grumman spokesman Mike Drake said yesterday.

As a result, Grumman will be the primary customer of TBG Cogen Partners. When the new plant is completed, the company no longer will purchase its power from the Long Island Lighting Co. Pesticide Ban Upheld The partial ban of a pesticide that in 1984 killed 500 geese at a Hewlett Harbor golf course has been upheld by a federal administrative law judge. Use of the chemical diazinon was banned by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1986 on golf courses and sod farms because of its lethal effects on wildlife. Manufacturers still could sell the product, however, while their appeal of the ban was pending.

On Monday, an administrative judge upheld the ban. Diazinon is a common weed and insect killer found in the arsenal of many gardeners. In large doses, it can kill birds that feed on grass or insects that have been contaminated with the chemical. In 1984, the pesticide was determined to be the cause of death of 500 geese at the Seawane Golf and Country Club in Hewlett Harbor. The country club paid $5,000 to the state Department of Environmental Conservation when it was found that the groundskeeper who applied the chemical was not certified to do so.

After the EPA imposed the ban in 1986, its major manufacturer, Ciba-Geigy and several other companies appealed the decision. -Kathy Boccella Judge Rules in SIC Case A judge in Riverhead yesterday continued an order barring the State Commission of Investigation from issuing a report critical of the suffolk district attorney's office. Acting State Supreme Court Justice Michael Mullen also said he would consider allowing counsel for former Suffolk Chief of Detectives John Gallagher to intervene in District Attorney Patrick Henry's lawsuit against the SIC. Gallagher's lawyer, David Clayton, argued that the SIC interfered in the selection of the special prosecutor who obtained an indictment in which Gallagher is accused of forging documents to help his son avoid a jail sentence for drug-dealing. In arguments yesterday, and in court documents filed at the inception of Henry's suit last month, Assistant Suffolk District Attorney Maureen Hoerger argued that the SIC had violated the constitutional rights of members of the district attorney's office by denying them the right to a fair hearing and due process, among other civil liberties.

Suffolk prosecutors were targeted during SIC hearings in January for allegedly condoning improper wiretap procedures and the use of an unreliable informant to make narcotics cases. Mullen asked for additional written arguments to be filed later this month, and continued the stay restraining the SIC from publishing its report. In a related development, Gallagher's lawyer, David Clayton, argued in court and in legal papers that the SIC improperly interfered with the selection by State Supreme Court Justice Thomas Stark of a special prosecutor to investigate allegations against Gallagher. -Joshua Quittner.
