UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DOCKETED 01/24/08 NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD SERVED 01/24/08 Before Administrative Judges:

Lawrence G. McDade, Chairman Dr. Kaye D. Lathrop Dr. Richard E. Wardwell In the Matter of Docket Nos. 50-247-LR and 50-286-LR ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS, INC. ASLBP No. 07-858-03-LR-BD01 (Indian Point Nuclear Generating January 24, 2008 Units 2 and 3)

ORDER (Preliminary Notification Regarding The Scheduling Of Oral Argument)

It is the intent of the Board to hear oral argument on the admissibility of contentions, and any other matters then outstanding, during the week of March 10, 2008, at the Richard J.

Daronco Courthouse, 111 Dr. Martin Luther King Blvd., White Plains, New York.

It will be necessary for representatives of the NRC Staff and the Applicant, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc., to be available during all business hours (9:00 am until 6:00 pm) throughout that week. Other participants in this litigation need only be present when contentions, or other matters which they presented, are being discussed.

Accordingly, in order to assist the Board in establishing a schedule for oral argument that will pose the least inconvenience to all involved, we direct all participants in this litigation, on or before Thursday, January 31, 2008, to notify the Board of any conflicts anticipated during the oral argument week. This notification shall include a listing of the business hours during the week of March 10th that would present a scheduling problem and a brief description of the nature of the time conflict.

To the degree practicable, the Board will attempt to formulate its schedule for oral argument to accommodate any significant conflicts. However, given the number of participants in this litigation and the number of issues too be addressed, the Board may not be able to acquiesce to all scheduling requests.

It is so ORDERED.
