JOINT STIPULATION CONCERNING FILING OF AND CITATION TO ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD AND MOTION TO SET BRIEFING SCHEDULE

Petitioners State of New Mexico and the New Mexico Environment

Department, Respondents U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the

United States of America, and Respondent-Intervenor Interim Storage Partners

LLC stipulate concerning the filing of and citation to the administrative re cord and

propose a briefing schedule for this petition for review, as follows:

1. On December 7, 2021, the NRC filed a certified index of the record in

accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 17 (b)(1)(B). The index provides the location

where each document may be publicly obtained, either in the Federal Register or

through the NRCs ADAMS database, available at https://adams.nrc.gov/wba/.

Appellate Case: 21-9593 Document: 010110632956 Date Filed: 01/18/2022 Page: 2

2. In accordance with C ircuit Rule 17.1, the NRC will file with the Court

those portions of the record that the parties have designated for submission.

Further, in accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 17(b)(3), should the Court request any

documents in the record that were not previ ously designated and submitted by the

parties, the NRC will provide them to the Court.

3. The parties have agreed that their briefs will cite to the materials in

the record using the Record ID number in the certified index, together with the

page of the.pdf file being cited. Thus, page 6 of the document with Record ID 157

would be cited as R157. 6. For any materials that are stored in an ADAMS

package (a collection of documents stored in the NRCs database under one

Record ID number), the parties will designate which sub -document within the

package is being cited with a number separated from the Record ID by a period,

along with the ML number of the sub-document in parentheses. Thus, page 12

of the third document in the package bear ing Record ID 19 would be cited as

R19.3(ML17058A026).12. The record that the NRC submits to the Court will be

paginated in this format, without any ML number (i.e., 157.6 or 19.3.12).

b. Brief of Respondents: May 13, 2022

d. Petitioners Reply Brief: June 13, 2022
5. The parties propose that NRC file the portions of the record that the y

have designated on or before May 27, 2022. This will permit inclusion of any new

materials cited in Intervenor -Respondent s brief and allow the agency sufficient

time to assemble the record for submission to the Court.

Accordingly, the parties respectfully request that the Court approve their

stipulation concerning the filing of and citation to the administrative record and

order briefing in accordance with the schedule listed in paragraph 4 above.
