Re: Contra Costa County & Contra Costa County Water Agency's Response to Petitioners' Request for Extension of Time
Dear Hearing Chair Doduc and Hearing Officer Marcus:
Johh Kopchik Director
On February 23, 2016, the Department of Water Resources and United States Department of Interior, Bureau of Reclamation ("Petitioners") requested, among other things, an extension of time, to extend, by 30 days, their deadline to submit written testimony for their cases in chief. Contra Costa County and Contra Costa County Water Agency neither support nor oppose the requested extension. Since you granted the requested 3 0-day extension, we request that you extend, and it is only fair to extend, by the same amount of time, all other deadlines for this hearing, including the current March 15, 2016 deadline for "procedural/evidentiary objections concerning petitioners' cases in chief," the current March 15, 2016 deadline for "receipt of proposed groupings and order of parties cross-examination," and all deadlines related to Part 1 b of the hearing (See Revised Hearing Schedule, Feb. 11, 2016 Pre-Hearing Conference Ruling, p. 2.) Extending these other deadlines will preserve the staggered hearing schedule in the February 11, 2016 Pre-Hearing Conference Ruling.
Further, Contra Costa County and Contra Costa County Water Agency join in the arguments made in Mr. Herrick's February 23, 2016letter regarding, "State Water Contractors Request for Reconsideration."
If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact me at (925) 674-7824.
