95-706-01-ML]
    In the matter of: HYDRO RESOURCES, INC., (2929 Coors Road, Suite 
101, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87120).

    Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.1211(a), on September 15, 1998, from 1:00 PM 
to 4:30 PM and 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM, limited appearance sessions will be 
held in the South Gym, Crownpoint Community School, State Rd. 371, 
Building No. 3001, South Gym, Crownpoint, New Mexico 87313 (``South 
Gym''). This facility belongs to the Eastern Navajo Agency, Office of 
Indian Education Programs.
    Statements may be made by members of the public at this session. 
The statements will not be a part of the decisional record. Only the 
parties who have been admitted in this case may place material into the 
formal record. When speakers make important points, relevant to pending 
areas of concern, the parties may introduce the arguments and the facts 
into the record in compliance with established procedures. People 
wishing to speak at the limited appearance session will, at the outset 
of each session, present to me a written statement containing their 
name and address and declaring whether they are able to speak in 
English; non-English speakers may speak in Navajo.<SUP>1</SUP> (Those 
who cannot write and cannot get someone to prepare a written statement 
for me may ask orally to make a limited appearance statement.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A Navajo translator is expected to be available.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Six minutes will be allotted to each speaker, subject to overall 
limitations of time. Speakers wishing to extend their remarks to ten 
minutes shall explain in their written request why they need the 
additional time and shall begin their remarks by requesting the 
Presiding Officer to grant an extension for that purpose. Speakers who 
must use the Navajo language shall have twice the allotted time, so 
that I may hear the English translation.
    On September 16, 1998 the parties and the Presiding Officer will 
take a bus tour of the site. A limited amount of space may be available 
on the bus for the press or the public, in exchange for the cost of the 
seat. Members of the public wishing to accompany the Presiding Officer 
may also follow the bus, but there is no assurance concerning how much 
of the conversation with the Presiding Officer will be audible for the 
general public.
    A scheduling conference, open to the public, will be held in the 
South Gym beginning at 9:00 AM on September 17, 1998. The expected 
duration of this conference is less than three hours.

    Rockville, Maryland, August 19, 1998.

    It is so Ordered.
Peter B. Bloch,
Administrative Judge, Presiding Officer.
