. to take and provide Intervenors with photographs of specified cooling pipes and supports. The Licensee filed its Response To Intervenor's Motion-To Compel Dated August 8, 1978 And; Cross Motion For Protective Order on August 21, 1978. The NRC Staff submitted its Response To Intervenors' Motion To Compel on August;29, 1978. Both the Licensee and the Staff oppose the Congreesman's. motion.
On August- 18, 1978- Congressman Dellums submitted l
Intervenors' Motion-To Compel Answers To Interrogatories, The interrogatories involved requested information concerni,ng the containment design for GETR'. The Licensee responded to this motion on August 30, 1978; Licensee's Response To Inter-venors' Motion To Compel Dated August 18, 1978 And Cross Motion For A Protective Order. The Licensee filed a supplement to its Response on August 31, 1978. The NRC Scaff.is not required to file a response to this motion and has evidently chosen not to do so.
