Docket No. 50-272 Gentlemen:

Enclosed are:

(1)

" Licensee's Objections to Lower Alloways Creek Township's Proffered Testimony," and (2)

"Licenst=e's Outline of Cross-Examination."

These filings are being made one day late because of my participation in Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company's Zimmer licensing hearings in Cincinnati, Ohio which unexpectedly continued through Friday, June 29, 1979, and my absence from the office for substantially all of the month of June.

This slight delay in submitting these two documents will not affect the upcoming hearing scheduled for the week of July 10.

Sincerely, e

. h'
