RE: Midland Proceedings: Discovery ,

I

'o e Co

Dear Mr. Cherry:

At.approximately 3:45 p.m. your secretary contacted me for the second time tcday concerning your request to. inspect documents which we have made available to the parties in this  !

proceeding. She stated, in substance, that'centrary to the in-  !

formation she gave me on her first call, you wanted the documents available for your inspection on Saturday, January 15, Sunday,

~ January 16 and Monday, January 17. As you are aware, since '

December 13, 1976, we have been providing you, on a weekly basis, .

with indexes of documents available for your review.- This is the first time that you have requested an opportunity to. inspect the

documents. As I stated in my first letter of.today's date, our

.  : offices will be closed on Saturday, January 15 and Sunday, Jan-ugry 16. However, the documents will be available for your review on Monday, January 17, during normal business hours. Of

-course,.they are currently available for your inspection during regular businessLh'ours~on reasonable notice, just as documents have been available for your inspection on that basis since December 13.

As you know, Rule'34 of the Federal: Rules of Civil j Procedure,- upon which NRCl discovery rules are' based, states that i a document request "shall specify a reasonable time, place and j manner.of. making the inspection and performing the related acts". l

Since inspection of the documents during a reasonable time, i.e.

-normal working hours, does not appear.to meet your-schedule, in

. order to attempt.to accommcdate you, we are prepared to:make avail-able on either Saturday or Sunday a paralegal familiar with the ,

documents and a xerox operator to' copy those documents which you designate,.providedlthat you are willing to pay their hourly overtime wage rate for the time they will expend in providing this service ~.to'you. If ycu wish to esereise this option, please notify me in writing bv Thursday, January.13, setting forth your consent to this provision and the exact dateLand time at which you will appear at our cffices, so that we.may make the necessary arrangements.

Sincerely, f.hM,
