The parties’ Joint Case Management Conference Statement indicates that there is a

18

dispute over whether discovery is appropriate in this action. Dkt. 48 at 4-5. They further

19

state that after Defendant produces the administrative record for the 2013 Total Maximum

20

Daily Load, Plaintiff will file a discovery motion. Given the dispute regarding whether

21

discovery is necessary or appropriate in this action and the anticipated motion practice,

22

coupled with the fact that no actual dates have been proposed by the parties, the Court finds

23

that, in the interests of judicial economy and conserving the parties’ resources, a brief

24

continuance of the presently-scheduled Case Management Conference is appropriate.

25

Accordingly,

26

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

27

The telephonic Case Management Conference currently scheduled for June

26, 2014 is CONTINUED to October 1, 2014, at 2:30 p.m. At least seven (7) calendar
