Chairman Atomic Safety & Licensing Board 1001 Connecticut Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D. C.
20036
Dear Mr. Deale:
Some time ago, you telephoned me to establish a i
date to discuss procedure in connection with alleged charges brought against me and which you represented were assigned to you in your capacity as Chairman of a Special Licensing Board.
I told you that in connection with those L
alleged charges I was represented by counsel, and I re-ferred you to Mr. Milton V. Freeman of the Washington law firn of Arnold & Porter.
l Thereafter, but prior to your notice of Decem-i ber 19, 1977, I understood.that Mr. Freeman was to meet with you on January 9, 1978.
Because of financial and other considerations I did not plan to attend that meeting in Washington and b(.came otherwise occupied in the course of my legal duties.
In fact, I have been for some time scheduled in depositions in California on that date (and thereafter throughout January 1978 in California and New York) and also in a hearing before a Federal District Court Judge in the Central District of California.
Thus I cannot be in Washington on January 9.
i-Thereafter I received the December 19, 1977 Order which established a rigid procedure imposing upon the Saginaw Intervenors certain requirements. g'In f act, that Order attempts to require the Saginaw Intervenors (or myself) to make certain filings on January 5, 1978 concerning the charges preferred by the Midland Licensing Board against the Regulatory Staff.
Wedbelieve that your Order is improper and without admitting the jurisdiction of your Order are asking the Board to rescind it.
