20036 In the Matter of Metropolitan Edison Company (Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1)
Docket No. 50-289 Y
Dear Lynne:
This is in response to your letter to me dated September 24 posing informally a number of questions to Ernie Blake in the hope of avoiding the need to take his deposition.
In our discussions on Friday, September 21, I informed you that in any deposition you might take we intended to assert wherever apprcpriate the attorney-client privilege with respect to cliec communications and that I was unwilling to have Ernie 0410010336 840926 POR AIV1CK 05000289 l

.Page 2 Blake answer informal questions, however innocuous his re-sponses, which risked a broader waiver of that privilege.
I thought it possible, however; that Ernie might be able to sup-ply certain factual information without breaching or waiving the attorney-client privilege.
I have discussed your letter with our litigation depart-ment and I am advised that disclosure not only of privileged communications but of facts imparted to Ernie in the course of such communications can result in a broad waiver of the attorney-client privilege.
Virtually all of the questions in your September 24 letter seek information which is privileged.
Many of the questions inquire directly into communications be-tween Ernie Blake and GPU and are not confined to facts.
Oth-ers seek facts or information which could only have been im-parted to Ernie Blake in communications to him by GPU.
Under these circumstances I do not think it is profitable to pursue further the process of informal questioning of Ernie Blake.
I regret that my unfamiliarity with the ground-rules of attorney-client privilege and waiver may have led to greater expectations on both our parts.
Sincerely Georg F. Trowbridge cc: Service List
