On August 8, 1978 Congressman Dellums sub-mitted Intervenors' Motion To Compel Answers To Interroga-tories.

The motion sought an order compelling the Licensee to take and provide Intervenors with photographs of specified cooling pipes and supports.

The Licensee filed its Response To Intervenor's Motion To Co=pel Dated August 8, 1978 And Cross Motion For Protective Order on August 21, 1978.

The NRC Staff submitted its Response To Intervenors' Motion To Compel on August 29, 1978.

Both the Licensee and the Staff oppose the Congressman's motion.

On August 18, 1978 Congressman Dellums submitted Intervenors' Motion To Compel Answers To Interrogatories.

The interrogatories involved requested information concerning the containment design for GETR.

The Licensee responded to this motion on August 30, 1978; Licensee's Response To Inter-venors' Motion To Compel Dated August 18, 1978 And Cross Motion For A Protective Order.

The Licensee filed a supplement l

to its Response on August 31, 1978.

The NRC Staff is not j

required to file a response to this motion and has evidently i

chosen not to do so.

Each of the above described motions, along with full and complete responses to each motion are currently l

before the Board for its consideration.

The issues raised i
