Mr. George W.*Knighton, Chief Environmental Projects Branch 1 Division of Site Safety & Environ-mental Analysis Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555 RE: Docket No. 50-5a8

Dear Mr. Knighton:

This is in response to ycur letter of March 17, 1978, addressed to my attention.

On June 17, 1977, our licensing counsel advised the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board of the commencement of a lawsuit against Omaha Public Power District by Nebraska Public Power District. Since then, Westinghouse has also filed a suit against OPPD for breach of contract. Settlement or disposition of the two lawsuits will influence, if not control, further decisions by OPPD concerning possible future use c of the Fort Calhoun site.'

l We therefore request that further licensing activities in the above docket be held in abeyance until OPPD notifies the Regulatory Staff further concerning the progress of the litigation.

Sincerely, 0 s. .
