If you object to producin5 such deouments; please describe the existing documents and the grounds for each objection.

5. Applicant's production of documents'regarding the Administration Building settlement is satisfactory. However applicant objects to answering the follow up questions en this subject en the grounds that it"is irrelevant to this ca se'.'

l Having re-studied the documents provided I have been unable to find s

satisfactory answers to these questions (as Mr. Erunner had suggested in I

our 3/17/81/ telephone conversation). Therefore I hereby move that the applicant be compelled te answer these four (Eb-Se) questions.

Iccentend that the Administration Building settlement issues are relevant l

4h'e to proceeding,as does the N.R.C. in its 78-20 I.&E. Repert pages 21 and 22:

and as this A.S.L.B. apparantly does in accepting my centention 3c in their Oct. 24,1980 ruling. The questions fall within the scope of discovery requests as set forth in 10 CFR Part 2.740(l').

PERTAINING TO INTERROGATORIES

1. Response is satisfactory. (le having been inadvertantly oriitted according to Er. Brunner) i 2, p!The attached letter from Mr. Brunner correctly surmarizes the compromises reached in our conversations of 3/17/81 and 3/20/81. Although I disagree with all but one of the applicantfs grounds for objecting te my cuestions:

~., -

u----..

P00R ORIGINH I will not set forth these objections as the compror.ise we have reached rakes such arguments unnecessary. In aseeptingi the applicant's objection as to burdeny I have agreed to limit my request to the specific examples set forth in : y 1/26/81 submitts1.

4. Although I object to applicant's misstatement of the the question I posed; ind the resultant answer to 4b; I ar. ne longer in need of an answer here.

I. had asked about hRC censultatien " prior to " the decision to preload; not concerning the decisien to preload.
