SR Hydropower, Inc.; Notice Accepting Late Filing and Establishing Deadline for Responses December 3, 1997. On November 1, 1996, Paul V. Nolan, as attorney for the Town of Rockingham, Vermont, filed a motion to intervene, protest, and comments, as well as a complaint and request for investigation relating to events surrounding an application filed August 16, 1996, by SR Hydropower of Brockway Mills, Inc. to surrender its license in Project No. 3131. On December 16, 1996, John Rais filed on behalf of SR Hydropower, Inc. and/or SR Hydropower of Brockway Mills, Inc. a response to Rockingham's November 1, 1996 filings. On June 2, 1997, Paul Nolan, on behalf of Rockingham filed a letter with the Commission, asserting that the December 16, 1996 filing by John Rais was not timely filed, nor was a copy of the filing served on Rockingingham or Nolan, and should not be accepted for filing. In the June 2, 1997 filing, Nolan answered, in part, certain allegations by Rais concerning a conflict of interest in Nolan's representation of Rockingham in this matter, but reserved the right to respond in full if the Commission should accept Rais's December 16, 1996 filing. In light of the circumstances described in Rais's December 16, 1996 filing, and the fact that Rockingham has now received a copy of the filing, the filing is accepted. Any further answers to the allegations in that filing concerning Nolan's conflict of interest, or any other matter, must be made by December 19, 1997. Linwood A. Watson, Jr., Acting Secretary.
