We are considering where and how to conduct oral argument most efficiently. Possibilities include New Mexico, NRC headquarters in Rockville, Maryland (with the option of participating from other locations electronically), and perhaps elsewhere.

Accordingly, on or before November 19, 2018, any participant may, if it wishes, file and serve a brief statement of its position concerning the preferable location and method for oral argument on standing and contention admissibility. The Board does not expect that any such statement need be more than a page or two.

It is so ORDERED.
