Dear Judges Kelley,

Bright and Carpenter:

Regretfully I must inform you that Joint Intervenors have been unable to comply with the Board's Order of November 29, 1983, regarding Discovery on Joint Contentions IV, V, and VI.

As indi-cated in our Motion for a Protective Order, we did not have the resources at this time to provide reasonably complete, good-faith answers to Applicants' interrogatorics.

I held off informing you of the situation until the very last moment, because there was a slim possibility that we would be able to file answers.

Unfort-unately, the press of other business prevented us from preparing a response.

I realize that our failure to comply with the Board's Order leaves us subject to appropriate sanctions, including dismissal of these contentions.

For the record, I want to make it clear that Joint Intervenors' failure to respond in no way indicates that we feel these contentions are unimportant or without merit.

Sincerely, g2140141 s33po9
