On December 27, 2005, defendant-intervenors San Luis & Delta Mendota Water Authority,

et al. filed an administrative motion under Civil Local Rule 3-12 to consider whether this case is

related to a subsequently filed case pending in this District Court: Planning and Conservation

League v. U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, No. 05-3527 CW. Under Civil Local Rules 3-12(e) and 7-

11(b), any responses to defendant-intervenors’ administrative motion must be filed in the earliestfiled action (here, Case 05-3527) within three days – in this case by December 30, 2005.

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-2(a), the undersigned counsel for the parties in both this case

and Case No. 05-3527 CW hereby stipulate to request that the Court enlarge the time for filing

Planning and Conservation League’s responses to defendant-intervenors’ administrative motion by

three business days to January 5, 2006. As set forth in the accompanying Declaration of Roger B.

Moore, the reason for the request is that counsel who has been principally responsible for this action,

Dave Owen, has been out of the office all of this week and will not return until next Tuesday. The

only other attorneys in this office, Roger B. Moore and Antonio Rossmann, must devote their full

efforts for the rest of this week to end-of-the-year accounting and are also unavailable. The requested

three-day extension is not expected to affect the schedule for the case.
