MEMORANDUM AND ORDER 1
(Sep tember 11, 1980)
Intervenor Steven C. Sholly inquired as to how many copies ofwrittentestimonyandexhibitswillberequiredforthefortkh-i coming hearings.
Parties will make normal service upon the board, other i.
parties, state agencies, and the Docketing and Service Branch of written direct testimony and exhibits in accordance with the i
board's order of August 15, 1980.
In addition, intervenors shall have three copies of written direct testimony and exhibits at the
\\
j hearing to offer into-evidence according to the provisions of l
10 CFR 2.743(b) or (f).
i Frequently when inexperienced parties attemot to cross-examine
-witnesses on the' contents of a document, they overlook the fact that the board and the other parties also need copies of the docu-ment.
Therefore, to avoid confusion, and perhaps loss of me=entum 1

in cross-examination, parties should, if possible, bring extra copies of cross-examination material to the hearing unless the material has already been distributed.
In recent filings several intervenors have been failing to serve motions and other pleadings on other intervenors.
Although the Docketing and Service Branch has attempted to provide service where intervenors fail to do so, it now reports that it can no longer automatically handle this task.
Without service upon all parties, the board is placed in-the position of having to consider intervenors' motions and other pleadings without an opportunity to consider the views of other intervenors, or delaying considera-tion until all parties have been served.
Neither alternative is acceptable at this stage of the proceeding.
Unless a particular exemption has been authorized, parties are required to follow the requirements of rules of' practice with regard to service of motions and pleadings upon all parties.
Several intervenors have requested free transcripts and we assume that eventually all of them will.
The board will provide i
free transcripts.
To avoid waste, we will order only four "nexc-day" transcripts (delivered to the board directly from the reporter the morning following the day of the reported testimony).
These will be allocated among the intervenors probably according to the issue being heard.
Inte,rvenors not provided with "next-day" t
e
9 transcripts will be provided free transcripts as soon as they can be duplicated by the Docketing and Service Branch.
Adj ust-cents to this distribution will be made if required.
The board is without authority to provide free transcripts for prehearing conferences before August 12, 1980, and requests for these transcripts are denied.
