SERVED 85131998 ORDER l
The Applicant, Commonwealth Edison Company, has filed a motion to postpone the time for filing its answer to the numerous and lengthy proffered contentions contained in the supplemental intervention petition of the Petitioner, Edwin D. Dienethal.
The Applicant seeks an extension of time until after the Licensing Board rules on the Petitioner's standing to intervene.
The Applicant argues that filing an answer to the proffered contentions at this time is inefficient and imposes substantial unnecessary costs upon the Applicant because~the Board might rule that the Petitioner lacks standing thereby obviating the Applicant's need to respond to the Petitioner's contentions.
The NRC Staff concurs in the Applicant's motion and requests similar relief.
The Petitioner opposes the Applicant's motion.
In light of the length and complexity of the Petitioner's proffered contentions and the corresponding time,. effort, and expense 9808140025 990813

t n the Applicant and the Staff will incur in filing answers to them at this time, the Board finds that the most efficient manner of proceeding is to postpone the filing of answers to the Petitioner's contentions until after the Applicant and the Staff file their replies addressing the standing issue and the Board rules upon that issue.
Accordingly, the Applicant's motion is oranted.
If necessary, the Board will issue a. subsequent scheduling order.
It is so ORDERED.
