The time for filing exceptions to the December 18, 1981, partial initial decision is extended to February 1, 1982.
We agree with UCS that the parties should direct their immediate attention to the issues before the Commission so we shall extend the date for filing exceptions to us.
The establishment of a fixed date for the filing of e::ceptions, irrespective of when and if an oral argument before the Commission is held, should permit better planning for the appeal phase of the case without placing an undue burden on the parties.
The extension applies to all parties.
