On March 21 — after the start of the tutorial in the above-captioned action — The

18

Concerned Household Electricity Consumers Council filed a motion seeking leave to file an

19

amicus curiae brief (Dkt. No. 172). Because of the timing of the motion, the parties did not

20

have an opportunity to address it. The motion is accordingly DENIED. No further amicus

21

submissions on the science of global warming and climate change will be accepted now that the

22

tutorial has concluded.
