FURTHER STIPULATION RE DOCUMENT PRODUCTION AND

ORDER [proposed] No. C-03-4350-MHP 2

1. Plaintiffs Okinawa Dugong (Dugong dugon), et al., and Defendants Donald H.

Rumsfeld, et al., hereby agree and stipulate to further modify the schedule for the production of

documents referred to in the court’s Order entered on July 18, 2006, regarding the Stipulation to

Amend Complaint. In that earlier stipulation, the defendants had agreed to provide additional

documents to the plaintiffs by August 25, 2006, regarding the May 1, 2006 “Roadmap” for the

construction of a replacement facility for the Marine Corps Air Station Futenma. 

2. On August 11, 2006, the defendants filed a notice to advise the court and the

plaintiffs regarding a one-month delay in the production of those documents until September 25,

2006.

3. On September 21, 2006, counsel for the defendants informed counsel for the

plaintiffs that additional time beyond September 25 would be required for the defendants to 

produce the documents, in light of concerns that the Department of Defense had identified

regarding the need to insure appropriate protection of certain privileged documents. 

4. On September 25, counsel for the parties conferred by telephone to discuss the

situation. The plaintiffs expressed their concern over the delays in production of the documents,

while the defendants explained the need for additional time. The parties then filed a joint

stipulation advising the court that they would attempt to reach an agreement regarding document

production and file a further report by October 3, 2006. The court approved that stipulation on

September 26, 2006.

5. The defendants’ counsel has been advised by Department of Defense officials in

Japan that they now expect to have all of the responsive documents compiled, indexed, and

ready for transmission from Japan no later than October 13, 2006. Because shipment of the

documents to the continental United States requires several days, the defendants commit to

making every effort to deliver the documents to plaintiffs’ counsel by Wednesday, October 18,

2006.

6. If, due to unexpected events, the government should prove unable to produce the

documents to the plaintiffs by that date, either party may request a status conference at the

earliest opportunity to request the court’s assistance in insuring production of the documents.
