and inquire into the studies, information, and knowledge of NRC staff with respect to my contentions on which discovery is now open. Since I cannot read the minds of the staff, and this information is not contained in documents which the staff has provided to ne, I am unable to obtain this infornation by other means. Where the information is contcined in a document I can obtain fron NRC (Public Document Roon, etc), I still need the identification of the doc.2nent in order to obtain the information. The staff has resources and in ormation which exceed what I have, and as a party, their position and ir2ormation are necessary to making my case in this proceeding. These interroga-t rios are continuing in nature and should be supplemented when answers change.
