Doe!cet Nos. 50 '329 and 50-330 cb,
e Dc.ir Chairman Murphy:
As stated at the conclusion of last Friday's Hearing (Tr. 4822-3). Eow requests that the Board proceed now to consider appropriate environmental issues, in light of the Ccurt of Appeals for the District of Columbia's Calvert Cliff 3 decicion, rather than await the outcome of judicial review or further AEC acticn. Such an approach nould be consistent with previous applications of Opposing Intertonors, uho all along have been contending that en-virorvasntal issues should 'ue concidered by thic Board.
The Ecard has requested that the AEC Staff (Tr.
4653) and the Saginaw Intervenor: (Tr. 4675-6) furnish proposed timetabics for future proceedin6s on radiological mattern, supplementing the Dow Schedulo corved July 23 tni Applicant's proposals (Tr. 4650-3), and has indicated that it will be issuing an Order this week in that regard (Tr.
4C53). ~We request that the Board include in its order a tinctcble with respect to environmental matters, including at 1 cant the follouing:
1.
A final dtte for the cut.uiscion of written int!.rrcgator.cs by Oppenin:; Inter tenor

July 28, 1971 on environmental matters, or renewal of earlier such interrogatories withdrawn or denied.
2.
A final date for the submiccicn of writtcn objections and/or responses to environ-mental interrogatcrics.
3.
A final date for the submissicn of legal briefs with respect to any environmental interrogatorics in issue, considering especially the standards to be applied in diccovery and at the HehrinE in connection with environmental matters.
4 A date for oral argcment, if the Ecard considers it appropriate.
5.
A final date for the AEC Staff to serve end file it: detailed environmental statement er make application for further time, on good cause shown.
6.
A date for the Hearing of environmental matters.
Although the Calvert Cliffs decision does intro-duce a new cet of considerations into this proceeding, it need not modify the procedures which have been considered for concluding the other non-ECCS issues, nor delay final decision. We believe the cbjective of the Hearing Board and all parties should ess~.t.ae to be to press forward so as to ccnclude as much of the c Atter as possible before the commencement of the school year, and the balance assoon thercarter as circumstances permit.
