==Dear Mr. Ratner:== | |||
I have been asked to acknowledge receipt of your letter of July 12, 1985 addressed to Ben Hayes and your letters of July 15 and 16 addressed to Judge Plaine. Since OGC is legal counsel to OI, we are here responding to the communications to both offices. | |||
We appreciate the information you provided, including actions taken by officials at the General Electric Company's Wilmington facility during the course of the present OI investigation at that location. I understand OI is fully cognizant of these actions. | |||
Should OI determine that its investigation is being impeded, it will take whatever action is necessary to protect the investigatory process. OI and OGC agree, however, that it would be premature, at this time, to take the steps suggested in your motion to the Department of Labor. | |||
Thank you for your continued interest in this investigation. | |||
Sincerely, | |||
