Good afternoon, Counsel: Thank you for your email regarding this matter. Although the week of June 24 would be a difficult week for me to schedule a civil hearing on this matter, I could hear it the following week on July 3. That hearing may occur in Durham since I'll be holding civil court there. I understand from the Durham Trial Court Administrator that the docket for that week is "light" so scheduling a 1 hour hearing should not be much of a problem. If the 3rd would not work for some or all of you, we could look at a distant second choice of the afternoon of Friday, June 28th - but that date would have to be subject to rescheduling if my criminal docket goes into Friday. Please discuss this among yourselves and let me know whether either of these dates will work. If not, we'll look at some other options. P. Ridgeway

DENR, DWQ v. Duke Energy Progress, pending in Wake County (13-CVS-4061). I have copied the attorneys for the State and Duke Energy Progress on this email. We learned from the Wake County TCA’s office on Friday that you have been designated as the presiding judge by Order dated May 23, 2013, upon a Rule 2.1 request of Duke Energy Progress. (A copy of the Order is attached.) We have a pending Motion to Intervene that had been scheduled on the Wake County motions calendar for the June 24 session before Judge O’Foghludha, but we understand from the TCA that the motion has been removed from the calendar administratively based on the exceptional designation. We also understand that you will be sitting in Wake County through June and Durham County in July. The Durham County TCA and Wake County TCA suggested we contact you directly at this email address to determine when we can appear before you. Pursuant to this suggestion, I am writing you to ask if you could suggest dates when it would be convenient for you to hear this matter. We anticipate it may take approximately one hour. Our Motion to Intervene has been pending since April 15, 2013, a few weeks after the State initiated this action. Based on our understanding of various scheduling conflicts among counsel, on May 6 we submitted a calendar request to have the hearing set for the June 24 session. We are eager to have the hearing on the Motion to Intervene re-calendared at an
