February 20, 1987 ORDER (Revising Discovery and Hearing Schedule)

On February 20, 1987 LILCO, with the consent of Intervenors, requested a telephone conference call to resolve an impasse concerning completion of deposition discovery under the current schedule. LILC0 and Suffolk County supported their positions by letter submitted by telecopier transmittal.

The problem was brought about by notification this week of 16 additional witnesses to be deposed. The parties proposed a very ambitious schedule to depose them, with one deposition scheduled for each workday and sometimes two. The dispute involved how the additional week needed for deposing the witnesses would affect the existing schedules.

In addition to LILCO, Suffolk County, the State of New York, NRC Staff and FEMA participated in the telephone conference call.

After hearing the parties and considering their arguments the Board decided that there was good cause, considering the workload, to extend the time for deposition discovery by one week as well as all the other following due dates and the date for the start of the hearing.

The Board wants it fully understood by the parties that it does not expect to entertain any other requests for postponement of the discovery and hearing schedule.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
