SCANP'S REPLY TO ANSWERS OF APPLICANT AND STAFF TO SCANP'S MOTION TO DISMISS APPLICATION SCANP has received the responses of the Applicant (Puget Power) and the Staff to our motion to dismiss the application filed Ma'y 8, 1980. / Because Puget Power's response, and par-ticularly the af fidavit of Mr. Mecca, provides detailed infor-mation of the sort that should have been provided by Puget Power in its report dated April 14, SCANP hereby withdraws its motion to dismiss the application for failure to pursue the application diligently.

It is significar.t that neither Puget Power nor Staff dis-puted our s tatement that the pendency of this application, and its attendant uncertainties, causes serious injury to SCANP members and Skagit County residents, which is not to be taken ligh tly . It is significant also that neither Puget Power nor Staf f strenuously def ended the sufficiency of their April status reports. and that Puget Power in part icular provided S

_.7 significant additional information *o demonstrate that it is acting diligently.

SCANP appreciates the difficultles of Puget Power 's pre-sent position, and appreciates also that major decisions, such as that faced here, cannot be made instantaneously. On the other hand, the Board is extending great leeway to Puget Power under these circumstances, and SCANP should not be required to ins is t on full disclosure at every turn. In view of the major uisruption caused by this application in the lives of SCANP members and all Skagit County r es ident s , Puget Power's minimum r es pons ibility is to provide f ull disclosure of the steps it is taking to provide electricity for future years, and should indicate in detail the particular progress made in

(

pursuit of the Skagit application, or, the progress made in facilitating a decision to abandon the Skagit site. These reports should be provided to the public willingly, and not only in response to mot ions of the nature filed by SCANP on May 8.

On April 14, Puget Power indicated that it would be pre-pared to declare its intent by the end of May. In response to our motion of May 8, Puget Power asks that its response be taken as a substitute for a mid-May repcrt, and advises the Board and the parties that it will be prepared to state its intentions by the end of June. SCANP request's that Puget Power provide a detailed progress report at the beginning of June,

and urges the Board to accept no further excuses or delays regarding Puget 's declaration of its ultimate intent past the end of June, 1980.

DATED this N day of June, 1980.
