Preliminary Pursuant to schedule set for motions on discovery, each 1/
of the parties 3bjected on various grounds to various interrog-atories and document requests filed pursuant to 10 CFR 2.740(b) and 2.741 by other parties.
Specifically, (a) Applicant, Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (CEI), objected to the interrogatories and document requests of the City of Cleveland (City), (b) Applicants (Toledo Edison Company, Pennsylvania Power Company, Ohio Edison and Duquesne Light Company) objected to City's interrogatories and document requests, (c) Applicants l

. objected to the joirt request of the AEC Staff (Staff) and the i
Department of Justice (DOJ) for answers to interrogatories and for production of documents, (d) City objected to i
Applicants' initial interrogatories and request for documents, (e) DOJ moved for a protective order as to certain discovery requests made by Applicants, (f) the Staff objected to certain of Applicants' interrogatories and document requests, and, also objected to certain discovery requests and interrog-atories by Applicants and by the City directed to other parties.
Accordingly, a pre-hearing conference was held on September 16, 1974, to consider each objec' tion.
All parties appeared and par-ticipated except AMP-0.
The objections as listed above will be considered in turn.
t B.
Objections of Applicant, CEI, to City's Proposed Discovery 1.
On August 26, 1974, City served interrogatories and documentary requests on CEI.
On September 9, 1974, CEI filed objections to these interrogatories and document
- requests.
As stated above, the Board held hearings on September'16, 1974, at which argument with respect to these objections was presented.

. 2.
The Board makes tile fol', wing disposition with respect to the general objections raised by CEI au to City's discovery requests:
(a)
CEI objects to the definition of the term " Company" insofar as it includes subsidiaries or affiliates of CEI.
This objection is overruled.
Section 2.741(a) permits discovery wi'h respect to materials in the possession, custody or control of the party upon whom the request is served..."
To the extent that CEI's relationships with its subsidiaries and affiliates have placed it in possession, custody or control of the materials being sought, production should proceed in accordance with the Board's rulings ennunciatt> nerein (U.S. v.
Continental Can Co., 22 FRD 241 [1958]).
(b)
CEI objects to the definition of " electric utilities" contending that the term is too broad in terms of its geographic impact and proposed owner-ship of electric power facilities.
The Board, for purposes herein, defines " electric utilities" to mean commercial firms, cooperatives, governmental units, or similar organizations that generate, transmit or i
i distribute electric power within the relevant market (s).
Included within this definition are those proposals known to CEI related to owning or controling electric power facilities.
r
-~.
-4_
(c)
CEI objects to L.te definition of
" competition".
The objection is sustained in part.
The definition is revised to interpret "any other electric utility company" as any actual or potential competitor of CEI.
(d)
CEI objects to the scope of pro-duction in terms of applicable time periods covered by the discovery requests and requests to produce documents on file at public agencies.
The Board heard argument from all parties with respect to an appropriate commencement date for discovery, and the Board has concluded that a uniform commencement date is appropriate.
Various dates were suggested, most of which related to the founding date of the CAPCO pool.
CEI indicated that the effective date of formation of this pool was September 1, 1967.
The Board has received proposals to limit discovery to a period commencing two years prior to this formation date and alternate proposals to commence discovery as of January 1, 1964.
The Board rules that the commencement date for discovery purposes shall be September 1, 1965.
This will allow the parties to discover documents generated in connection with the formation of the CAPCO pool for a period of approx-imately 2 years prior to che formation of the pool.
With respect thereto the Board also rules that upon app?.ation to the Board and for good cause shown the
parties may request discovery prior to September 1, 1965, for particular, specific, requests.
(e)
With respect to the objection relating to production of documents on file with the public agencies, the objection is overruled.
CEI is re-questing expedited action by the Board in its license application.
It is inconsistent with the purported need for expedition to insist that other parties be put to the time-consuming burden of visiting various public agencies to obtain information which is more readily available in Applicant's own files.
3.
CEI objects to City's rejoinder in certain interrogat-ories propounded by the Staff and DOJ. Any decision of the Board with regard to such common interrogatories will apply to all parties affected.
4.
CEI objects to document request 1(d) which seeks information on the occupations of CEI directors on the ground that this information is irrelevant.
City contends that these directors may have utilized their other business connections to assist CEI in the creation or maintenance of a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws.
This objection is over-ruled in part.
CEI shall comply by listing for each director his occupation, all banks or other financial institutions (including insurance companies, investment banking firms, and securities firms) as to which the CEI director is an officer l
. or director, and all public utilities or electrical supply or construction companies as to which the CEI director serves as an officer or director.
5.
CEI objects to document request 16(d) relating to legislation and constitutional revision affecting the ability of electric utilities to own, finance and construct facilities and to sell electricity.
CEI contends that these documents are irrelevant to the proceedings and that it would be placed under a severe burden to conduct a search for such documents.
The oujection is sustained on the basis that CEI's activities, if any, in the areas of legislation or constitutional revision do not possess the requisite degree of relevance to these pro-ceedings.
Assuming that CEI did undertake legislative activities directed to the enactment of statutes which would affect the competitive position of the City, these activities nonetheless wou'.d not constitute antitrust violations in and of themselves.
The Board might consider whether such activities were part of a broader program to create or maintain a situation inconsistent with the' antitrust laws, but under the doctrine of Parker v,.
Brown, 317 US 341, (1942), legislative judgments with respect to legislative structure may not be considered as antitrust l
violations even though they have an effect upon commerce.
t
. 6.
CEI objects to document request 16 (f) which calls for materials relating to municipal elections claiming burden, and further claiming that political activities are immunized from antitrust attack.
CEI contends that the Noerr Doctrine prevents discovery relating to political matters.
The Board does not agree that the blanket assertion of the Noerr Doctrine precludes all such discovery, and on that basis the objection would be overruled.
However, the City thus far has failed to demonstrate the relevance of the information sought under this request to the issues admitted in this proceeding and on that basis the objection is sustained. In the event relevance is clearly demonstrated, the Board may reconsider its ruling.
7.
CEI objects to document request 16(g) pertaining to litigation documents because it calls for privileged materials and is unduly broad.
CEI also claims that certain activities covered by this request may be immunized from antitrust challenge since they would not fall within the " sham" lawsuit exception as set forth in California Motor Transport Company v,.
Trucking Unlimited, 404 U.S. 508 (1972).
The City cited an example of ons lawsuit which it contends has anticompetitive overtones. The City further indicated that it would be difficult, without discovery, to gauge the number of lawsuits to determine whether the " sham" exception applied.
The Board agrees that l
l it is impossible to determine if the " sham" exception applies f
- without permitting the discovering party to ascertain the ex-tent of such litigation.
Also, with respect to Applicant's claim that the request is unduly broad, we note that it is limited to litigation in opposition to the construction of competing generation or transmission facilities.
Accordingly the objection is overruled with regard to litigation that may have been initiated by CEI and discovery is permitted thereto except where CEI asserts an " attorney-client" privilege which shall be handled in accordance with the provisions of Section H below.
The objection of CEI is sustained with respect to liti-gation that may have been initiated by other entities.
8.
CEI ob4 ; cts to document request 16 (i) calling for information regarding labor union negotiations on the basis that this information is irrelevant to any issue in this pro-ceeding.
The objection is sustained.
9.
CEI objects to document request 16 (j) which seeks fossil fuel supply contracts, on the basis that the information is irrelevant and confidential.
As to confidentiality, data other-wise discoverable may not be withheld from attorneys, or economic and technical advisors employed by a party even though the request does involve information considered by a party to be confidential i
business information.
However, the Board will assist the parties in protecting arguably confidential business information from
_9_
coming to the attention of business rivals.
The Board intends to treat requests for confidential treatment in a uniform fashion, and it sets forth as Appendix A to this order a standard protective order which will apply to all requests for 4
con..!.dential treatment except as good cause may be shown for amendment.
With respect to the relevancy objection raised as to this request, such objection is overruled, except that the Board will not at this time require the production of collateral documents pertaining to the supply contracts sought.
10.
CEI objects to document request 17(a) relating to electrical load growth or area growth.
The parties have reached agreement whereby the City will rephrase its request and CEI will withdraw its objection to the request as amended.
11.
CEI objects to document request 17(b) which seeks documents pertaining to retail electrical service franchises, as being irrelevant to this proceeding.
The City further clarified its request as being limited to any municipality which offers franchises to serve customers within the said municipality at retail.
The objection is overruled and dis-covery permitted except where CEI asserts an " attorney-client" privilege, in which case the provisions of Section H below shall apply.
l
4
. 12.
CEI objects to document request 18 which seeks correspondence between it an the Edison Electric Institute and the National Association of Electric Companies on the ground that the request is unduly broad and irrelevant to these pro-ceedings.
However CEI's assertion as to burden in complying with the request, which it deemed unduly broad, has been made without more than a passing reference to indexes available to CEI, and a cursory review of its own files.
It is the Board's understanding that various indexes maintained by CEI may provide access to the materials being sought.
Accordingly, the Board overrules the objection based on burden, but hereby directs that the search not extend beyond files which appear responsive to said request 18 as such files may be identified through said indexes or through files identified as relevant by CEI department heads.
With respect to relevance, request 18 must be examined as to each subheading.
The objection is sustained as to subheading (a) relating to construction and acquisitions.
The objection
)
i is overruled with respect to subsections (b), (c) and (d) which relate to power supply to municipals, coordination and inter-connection with municipals, and territorial or customer allo-cations.
13.
CEI objects to dccument request 20(e), on the ground that it is unduly broad, as it seeks information pertaining to each wholesale electric customer of the company.
The City responded that, according to its definition of wholesale, very few customers of CEI are involved in this request.
The objection is sustained as to all customers except those known by CEI to fall into the category of wholesale customers as defined by the City.
Moreover, the objection is sustained as to all subheadings, except subheading (b) which relates to the l
sale or purchase of electric power, subheading (c) concerning wholesale competition and any communications with representatives of Boards of Directors, and subheading (e) on communications pertaining to the matters covered in subheadings (b) and (c).
14.
CEI objects to document request 21(c) which seeks documents relating to NERC, ECAR and NAPSIC, on the basis of relevancy and burden.
The objection is sustained as to all documents except those dealing with membership in these groups, and decisions setting qualifications for membership and full participation.
l l
l j
15.
CEI objects to document request 22 insofar as it per-tains to unexecuted agreements for the reason that working l
drafts may not accurately reflect the policy or position of the company and that only executed documents may be considered to state the companies' position.
The City argues that w
m
. reference to working drafts may provide evidence with respect to Applicant's intentions and motives in negotiating such agreements.
The objection is sustained, except as to un-executed documents relating to membership and membership qualifications in CAPCO.
16.
CEI objects to document request 23, on the basis of relevancy, and states that this request constitutes a
" fishing expedition".
The objection is sustained as to all documents except that discovery is permitted as to CAPCO and ECAR documents.
17.
CEI objects to document request 25 relating to the i
formation of holding companies to become the parent of some or all the Applicants, on the ground that this information is irrelevant to the issues of this proceeding.
The objection is sustained.
18.
CEI objects in part to document request 26, on the ground that it seeks production of pool arrangements under t
consideration.
CEI contends that working papers may not re-present its final position.
Nevertheless, the information being sought may well be related to the creation or maintenance of a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws and is related i
j to the issues of this proceeding.
Accordingly, the objection is overruled.
. 19.
CEI objected to documentary request 27.
The City has amended this request and Applicant has withdrawn its objection to the request as amended.
20.
CEI objected to document request 28, but the parties subsequently informed the Board that they are in agreement with respect to the method of compliance with this request and the objection is withdrawn.
21.
CEI objected to document request 31, but the Board subsequently has been informed that the parties reached an agreement and the objection is withdrawn.
22.
CEI objected to document request 32(a) but subsequently the parties reached agreement with respect to the method of compliance with this request and the objection is withdrawn.
23.
CEI objects to document request 35, on the basis that it calls for drafts of contracts which may not represent its final position.
The objection is overruled.
24.
CEI objects to document request 37 (a) which seeks information on cost analyses of other Ohio utilities as burden-some and irrelevant.
The Board agrees that such request is irrelevant to tl'e issues under consideration and the objection is sustained.
r
- 25.
CEI objects to document request 37(b).as reformulated in a
letter dated September 18, 3 from City's counsel to the Board.
The request seeks participation studies between the company and other electric utilities with respect to nuclear or fossile fuel generating facilities and transmission facilities.
CEI objects, on the ground that the request is vague and compliance would be burdensome.
This request may be highly relevant to the issues defined by the Board and to the creation of a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws.
Accordingly, the objection is overruled.
26.
CEI objected to document request 37(c) but subsequently the parties reached agreement with respect to a method of compliance with this request and the objection was withdrawn.
4 27.
CEI objects to document request 37(d) as reformulated in letter dated September 18, 1974, from City's counsel, to the Board, relating to generation and transmission integration studies, and document request 37 (e) relating to line extension i
policy.
CEI contends these requests are too broad and unduly burdensome.
The objection is sustained as to all routine daily or short-term business reports, but is overruled with re-L spect to all policy and planning documents.
)
28.
CEI objects to document requests 37(f) and 37(g) relat-ing to reliability data for generating units and transmission lines.
CEI contends that these requests are burdensome and irrelevant to the issues of this proceeding.
CEI does offer, m-
.I
- however, to furnish a summary analysis of major activities relating to transmission reliability.
The objections are sustained except that CEI will provide a summary analysis in accordance with the terms of its offer.
29.
CEI objects to document request 37(h) seeking docu-l ments relating to outage time in 1973.
The City amended its request at the prehearing conference and the objection to the request as amended was withdrawn.
30.
Upon CbI's objection to document request 37 (i), the request was withdrawn.
31.
CEI objects to document request 38 which seeks information relating to engineering consultants.
The City amended the request, and the objection was withdrawn as to said amended request.
32.
CEI objects to document request 39 relating to yearly peak flow diagrams through 1985.
The request was amended and the objection withdrawn to the amended request.
33.
CEI objects to document request 40 which seeks press releases.
The request was limited to reduce the asserted burden and the objection is overruled with respect to the i
amended request.
l
. t CEI objects to document request 41 which seeks all 34.
documents pertaining to capital and operation and maintenance l
cost factors on grounds that the information is too broad in scope, irrelevant, and production would impose an undue burden.
City indicated the information was desired to assist in utilizing the same factors as CEI in constructing any studies for possible use at the hearings.
City has not commenced any study nor does it have affirmative plans to do so.
The objection is sustained since the City has failed to demonstrate l
l any current need for this type of information.
In the event the City does decide to undertake such a study, the parties are directed to confer for the purpose of utilizing the same definitions and base data in their respective studies to the maximum extent possible.
35.
CEI objects to document request 43.
The parties a
conferred after the hearing, reported that City had amended document request 43, and that CEI withdrew its objection to the amended request.
36.
CEI objects to document request 44 which seeks it.2ormation relating to actual and proposed power purchases.
CEI withdrew its objection to that part of the request re-lating to actual wholesale sales or transactions (the City l
l i
_ 17 -
narrowed the scope of its request to wholesale sales or trans-f actions).
The objection is overruled with respect to proposed sales of power at wholesale, as so defined and limited by City.
1 37.
CEI objects to document request 51 which relates to the proposed Yankee-Dixie generation and transmission system on grounds that this information is irrelevant to these pro-ccedings.
The City argues that the Yankee-Dixie project would make available additional bulk power in the wholesale market and would make available an alternate transmission grid.
- Thus, the city contends that the availability (or nonavailability) of alternate sources of power relates to potential competition.
The objection is sustained, except that discovery is permitted in the limited area of planning, policy and study documents.
38.
CEI objects to document request 54, on the grounds that the information is irrelevant.
The City argues that such information would show whether CEI determines its rates i
l on a cost basis or on some other basis which might indicate an intent to monopolize on the part of CEI.
The objection is overruled.
39.
CEI objects to document request 55 which seeks cost of servicing studies relating to wheeling, on the basis that wheeling is not relevant to any contention of City.
City cites
. paragraphs 16, 17, and 19 of its Perry petition as an indication of the fact that wheeling was included among its contentions.
The objection is overruled.
40.
CEI objects to document requests 56-62 relating to advertising and public relations, firms, materials and ex-penditures of CEI, on the grounds that this information is irrelevant.
The obiection is sustained.
41.
CEI objects to document requests 70, 72, 74, 76, 83-88, on the basis that the specific activities as to which information is sought relate to conduct rather than structure.
The parties are reminded that the Board's second prehearing order of July 25, 1974,.did not eliminate from these proceedings all reference to conduct.
The issues in i ase proceedings are those set forth by the Board in said prehearing order and the parties should address themselves to those issues without undue emphasis as to whether a particular issue relates to structure or to conduct.
Discovery focusing on conduct but relating to an issue designated by the Board will be permitted if otherwise unobjectionable.
1 With that background, we turn to the specific requests under objection.
CEI's objection to request 70 relating to events occurring in 1960-61 is sustained on the ground that these events occurred prior to the Board's cut-off date and
. i I
insufficient cause was demonstrated by City to render it advisable to select an earlier date on such request.
Request 72 pertains to correspondence relating to amending or defeating Bond Ordinance No. 2104-72 including contacts between CEI representatives and Bond Counsel for the City.
The objection to request 72 is sustained, except that discovery is permitted as to corres-pondence or documents given to, or relating to said Bond Counsel.
Attempts to persuade City that it would be legislatively unwise to accept a pending bond proposal seems so far within the ambit of the Noerr-Pennington Doctrine as to preclude discovery on this point.
On the other hand, contacts by CEI representatives with City's Bond Counsel may relate to attempts to prevent financing of this project and may lead to evidence that Applicant's activities were for the purpose of creating or maintaining a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws.
The Board notes that, throughout the hearing, counsel for City indicated that City had information to the effect that CEI was engaged directly and indirect 1/ in attempts to interfere
-with City's financial standing.
42.
CEI objects to document request 74 which seeks documents relating to the draft of bond ordinances.
The objection is sustained except as to correspondence and enclosures between CEI and any law firm representing City or Bond Counsel for City.
I l
' 43.
CEI objects to document request 76 which relates to a 1939 bond issue.
The objection is sustained, on the ground that the information sought is too remote from these proceedings.
44.
CEI objects to document requests 83-88 which relate to campaign activities within the City of Cleveland and appointments of municipal officials within the city.
These objections are sustained.
45.
CEI objects to document request 71 which relates to the economic conditions of the area served by CEI regarding future projections, contending that the request is irrelevant.
The objection is sustained.
46.
CEI objects to document requests 75 and 78 which con-cern litigation relating to the sale of City's revenue bonds and the use of its general fund.
The objection is overruled as to document request 75, since it may relate to the question of whether CEI instigated " sham" litigation against the City, except that if CEI asserts an " attorney-client" privilege, l
the provisions of Section H below apply.
The objection is sus-tained as to document request 78, since it refers to a pending civil action in the Federal District Court, the records of'which are available to City.
. 47.
CEI objects to document requests '/, 79, 80 and 81 relating to the retention of attorneys and budget planning reports, on grounds that such information is privileged, irrelevant or confidential.
Document request 77 which seeks correspondence and enclosures between the Union Commerce Bank, Mr. Harkla and Mr. Hengst is overruled, but the objection is sus-tained as to other documents covered by this request, on the ground that the request is overly broad.
Document request 79 was amended by City and the objection was withdrawn to the amcnded request. Document request 80 which seeks budget re-ports and planning documents relating to the budget is over-ruled.
Document request 81 relating to weekly reports to Mr.
Howley is sustained on the ground that the request is overly broad.
48.
Document request 89 relating to the activities of 1
certain civic associations or leagues is sustained, on the ground that the relevance of communications with these organ-izations has not been demonstrated, 49.
CEI objects to document request 91 which calls for l
information with respect to CEI and CAPCO deposits at all banks utilized by them.
The objection is sustained except that CEI shall identify all banks in the Cleveland metropolitan area during the relevant time period in which it maintained l
l n-
b
' deposits in excess of $25,000, but CEI shall not be obligated to state the amount or duration of such deposits.
50.
CEI objects to document requests93-112 on the J
grounds that this material is not relevant and that it would be burdensome to conduct file searches.
CEI maintains these requests relate to conduct rather than structure.
The object-ions are overruled except that the Board directs that the search not extend beyond (1) reference to a central index or j
subindexes; (2) reference to files designated by customer 1
name; (3) reference to customers address list; (4) reference and requests for assistance in producing such documents to appropriate personnel in the CEI sales department.
51.
CEI objects to document request 113 which seeks daily diaries and appointment calendars of its officials.
City failed to narrow its request to relevant dates and/or subject matter to the satisfaction of the Board and, accordingly, the objection is sustained.
52.
CEI objects to production of documents located during the course of its discovery searches which it deems to be privileged or confidential.
With respect to claims of confidentiality made by any party to this proceeding, the Board's protective order attached hereto as Appendix A to this Order will apply.
With respect to material to which any party may
- assert the " attorney-client privilege", the provisions of Section II below will apply.
The objection is otherwise overruled.

(15c))/onthegroundsthatitisundulybroadandburdensome and that Applicants, other than CEI, are n'ot involved.
As to the data sought by DOJ and Staff, the objection is over-ruled.
In view of the September 1, 1965, date set a?;ve, the arguments of burden are not persuasive.
The data being sought may well be probative of other information relating to the creation or maintenance of a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws.
87.
Applicants object to Interrogatory 2, on the basis that it requests a definition of geographic and product markets and submarkets on which the Applicants intend to rely.
It is contended that such request is contrary to Federal Rule 33(b).
DOJ replies that Rule 33(b) as cited by Applicant was amended i
in 1970 to permit, such discovery, contrary to Applicants' assertion.
An Interrogatory otherwise proper is not necessarily objectionable merely because an answer thereto involves an opinion or contention that relates to fact, or the application of law 3/ Doc. Req.15c identifies the identically worded request separately addressed to each Applicant other than CEI corresponding to joint request 23c.

DOJ objection I seeks a limitation on the number and location of files to be searched.
Applicants agree to the i
limitations proposed by Justice (Tr. 639).
l 141.
DOJ objection II relates to the time frame for dis-covery.
The time is to be governed'by the Board's ruling which established September 1, 1965, as the cut-off date for all discovery except upon good cause shown.
142.
DOJ objection III relates to the date by which DOJ shall list detailed allegations of actions " creating or t
maintaining a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws."
The parties have agreed that an initial response will be made on or before October 31, 1974, with a supplemental response due on or before January 10, 1975, (Tr. 641).
143.
DOJ objection IV relates to specification of contentions concerning nexus.
DOJ requested leave to file tentative contentions relating to nexus on or before October 31, 1974, I
and to supplement such contentions by February 20, 1975, as requested by Applicants because additional time may be required for, expert analysis of discovered data.
Accordingly, the l
. Board will permit DOJ to supplement its answers on or before February 20, 1975.
144.
DOJ objection V seeks to ascertain conditions DOJ may seek to impose on the subject license.
The Motion for a Protective Order as to this ' item was withdrawn (Tr. 645).
145.

As in objection IV, Applicants requested leave to file on or before January 10, 1975, and DOJ proposed a February 20, 1975, filing date.
The Board will allow supplemental responses to be filed on or before February 20, 1975, based on the expectation that Applicants will receive tentative answers on October 31, 1974, which will advise Applicants as to the basis of DOJ's concern and enable Applicants to fashion their responses accordingly.
However, if, at any time, Applicants deem them-selves to be prejudiced by said ruling, they may request additional preparation time.
146.
DOJ objection VIII concerns Applicants' request for the DOJ's view of the appropriate access commitment CEI would have to grant to Painesville and Cleveland to be free from anti-competitive effect.
DOJ proposes to defer its answer until the completion of discovery.
Given the nature of the question l
l l
l
. and the impracticality of framing a considered answer prior to the completion of discovery, this request need not be answered at this time.
147.
DOJ objection IX relates to previously produced materials.
The parties reached agreement with respect to this request and no ruling is required (Tr. 652).
G. Objections of Staff 148.
The Staff's objections to Applicants' interrogatories and request for documents as stated in section 1 of Staff's September 9 response were withdrawn at the pre-hearing conference.
With respect to Staff's objection to certain dis-covery requests and interrogatories by Applicant and Intervenor City of Cleveland, directed at other parties, the Board has considered Staff's comments in making specific rulings herein.
However, while the Board may agree that discovery relating to the. retail market should be kept to a minimum, nevertheless as indicated in the issues admitted as matters in controversy herein, some discovery on retail is permissible to.the extent it is incorporated within the issues defined by the Board.
. 11. Documents as to Which Privilege is Asserted 149.
In the event any party asserts privilege as a ground for withholding any document otherwise subject to production under the terms of another party's discovery requests (as modified herein by the rulings of the Board), the Board directs the party asserting the privilege to identify each such document as follows:
The document shall be identified by date, person (s) preparing the document, recipient (s), subject matter of the document, documentary request number by which the document would be produceable but for the assertion of privilege, and brief statement. of the basis for asserting privilege.
A copy of privileged document designations should be supplied to the Board.
