(Commission) hold a hearing on the antitrust considerations of the I

By a letter dated July 9,1971, the Attorney General, pursuant to sec-l tion 105c. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, advised the Commission that an antitrust hearing would not be required on this application.

2-published notice will provide that persons whose interests may be affected will have 30 days to petition to intervene and requeat a hearing on the antitrust aspects of the application.

Accordingly, the AEC regulatory staff reccmmends that consideration of the City of Clevel'and's petition be held in abeyance until the time in which petitions to intervene may be filed, as will be specitiud in tne notice to be published in the Federal Register, has ended and that dur-ing this time the petitioner could be allowed to amend its petiticn, if it so desires, to reflect its comments on the advice of the Attorney General and/cr the results of its r.egotiations with the applicants.

.ne regulatory staff also recommends that the applicants and we be granted 15 days after the time in which to file petitions to intervene has ended in which to answer this petition and any amendment thereto.

For the above reasons, the regulatory staff has no objection to the motion of the applicants dated July 13, 1971, requesting additional time in which to answer the petiticn.

Respectfully submitted, i

Paul W. Wallig v'

Counsel for AEC Regulatory Staff Dated at Bethesda,ffaryland, this 19th day of July 1971.
