ORDER (January 16, 1980)

By motion dated January 11, 1980, received by us on January 15, 1980, CAND filed a motion for us to reconsider our Orders of October 30, 1979 and January 4, 1980.

Those Orders had the effect of alleviating, although still imposing, certain discovery obliga-tions upon CAND.

Upon receipt of CAND's motion, we requested the Staff counsel (Mr. Cutchin) to attempt to arrange a conference call to discuss various points raised in the motion.

This morning (Wednesday, January 16), Mr. cutchin informed us that he had contacted Mr.

Thomas J. Halligan, CAND's representative, to advise CAND of the conference call and that Mr. Halligan had declined to participate in any such call but insisted upon being contacted only in writing.

In line with Mr. Halligan's request, CAND is hereby notified that its motion, which includes no information that we have not 80012 50 h) already considered, is denied.

Given Mr. Halligan's refusal to participate in a discussion concerning the outstanding discovery obligations, CAND is hereby reminded that it must respond to the Applicants' and Staff's discovery requests by Friday, January 18, 1980 (the date established in our Order of December 6, 1979).

As provided by our Order of October 30, 1979, failure to respond will result in CAND's being barred from presenting direct testimony on the contentions for which responses are required by January 18, and such failure may also be grounds for dismissing CAND from the proceeding.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

FOR THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD Charles Bechhoefer, Chairman Dated at Bethesda, Maryland, this 16th day of January, 1980.
