In the Matter of ROCKWELL INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION Rocketdyne Division a
L Docket No. 70-25-SNM-No. 21 ASLBP No. 89-594-01-ML h
Dear Administrative Judges:
In the conference call of March 15, you asked the intervenors to consult among themselves on two matters and report back to you within ten days. Those two; matters had to do with (1) manner and computation of time for service of documents and (2) proposals for foreshortening the proceeding _
by eliminating or combining certain subsequent phases.
We believe we have a statutory right to a full hearing on Rockwell's application. We further believe that some time in required to adequately rebut Rockwell's anticipated responses to our direct cases.
Additionally Judge Bloch has set up a process for identifying questionq that may need
.3' answering, additional information that may need to be obtained and the 3
possibility that oral hearing and calling of witnesses may be necessary to resolve important mat.ters. The Appeals Board has ordered that that-information-gathering portion of the proceeding be deferred until at least after our direct cases were filed, and Judge Bloch has ruled that this will not commence until after Rockwell's response is filed.
Specific answers from intervenors are as follows:
1).
Consensus opinion that even though a 5-day scheduling delay for each filing ensues, express mail for each item is too burdensome. Should a specific filing be decided,by Judge Bloch to be urgent enough to requite express mailing,'the intervenors would be pleased to comply with such a decision.
2).
Shortening of the schedule -- other than the provision that pertinent future information be sent to intervenors now rather than later -- is not acceptable. While intervenc 1 share the desire for quick action, we are very apprehensive that our points-of-view may not receive a complete hearing. Consensus opinion is that we have to be given time to respond to Rockwell contentions. We are unanimous that stopping the hearings af ter 9003300120 % $$02W PDR ADOCK ppg C
