f Washington, D.C. 20009 Dear Ellyn By letter dated September 26, 1984, Licensee agreed to provide to UCS supplemental responses to specified interrogato-ries contained in Union of Concerned Scientists' First Set of Interrogatories to General Public Utilities, dated August 28, 1984. By letter from Licensee's counsel to counsel for UCS dated September 28, 1984, Licensee provided a partial supple-mental response to UCS' First Set of Interrogatories. This supplemental response constitutes the completion by Licensee of its commitments, as specified in my letter of September 26.

Interrogatories 2(d) and 2(f). Counsel for Licensee cur-rently anticipates that its witnesses may rely on the following

documents in' forming the opinions contained in their testimony.

To the extent UCS seeks documents other than those affirma-e tively relied on by Licensee's witnesses, its request i

unreasonably invades the work product and trial preparation

) exceptions to discovery specified in 10 C.F.R. S 2.740(b)(2).

Ellyn R. Weiss, Esquire October 15, 1984 Page 7 Licensee is'not now sure whether its two panels of GPU Nu-clear witnesses will subdivide sponsorship of the topics within j their respective pieces of testimony. Obviously, there are  !

+

certain subjects which one witness, from his experience and responsibilities, may be most suited to address._ With respect I to the Reconstituted OARP Committee, who will appear.as a panel, Licensee anticipates that each of the five members of the Committee will be particularly knowledgeable in the follow-ing subject-areas:

Dr. Christensen -- the various aspects of. simulator-training.

Dr. Gardner -- the educational quality of the licensed op-erator training program and operators' views of training;

, Mr. Kelly -- the substantive quality of the licensed oper-

ator training program and operators' views of training; Dr. Kimel -- the substantive quality of the licensed oper-ator training program, training management and GPU Nuclear's response to cheating (insofar as it relates to the licensed op-erator training program); and l Dr. Uhrig -- training management and GPU Nuclear's re-sponse to cheating (insofar as it relates-to the licensed oper-ator training program).

In this letter, Licensee has endeavored to be as fully forthcoming as possible,. recognizing that its trial prepara-tions currently are underway. The above information should en-able-UCS to understand and respond to Licensee's case-in-chief.

As indicated in Licensee's Motion to Compel, which will be filed tomorrow, Licensee does not believe that UCS has been 4

equally forthcoming with Licensee.

Sincerely, h.
