April 14, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 155 TRANSCRIPT REQUEST by Bay.Org, Defenders of Wildlife, Golden State Salmon Association, Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. for proceedings held on 04/07/2020 before Judge Hon. Dale A. Drozd. Court Reporter Karen Hooven. (Chisholm, Barbara)
April 14, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 154 MINUTE ORDER: (TEXT ENTRY ONLY) signed by District Judge Dale A. Drozd on 4/14/2020. This court has received and reviewed preliminarily the papers filed in connection with the pending motion for preliminary injunction #81 , which is now fully briefed. Before this matter was transferred to this district, the motion was set for hearing on April 16, 2020. 101 In light of the Standing Order Re Judicial Emergency issued March 25, 2020 #115 -1, motions before the undersigned are generally decided on the papers pursuant to Local Rule 230(g) without a hearing. Nonetheless, it is possible that a hearing may be helpful in this complex case. However, given the time expended by the court preparing for and hearing the recent application for a temporary restraining order and in light of the fact that the reply brief was not received until March 12, 2020, the court requires additional time to determine whether to hold a hearing, and, if so, to prepare for any such hearing. As a result, the April 16, 2020 hearing date is formally VACATED. The court is aware that operational conditions in the coming month may require rapid judicial attention. The parties are therefore directed to meet and confer to provide the court with a brief (no more than 7-pages combined) joint status report on or before April 24, 2020 outlining their respective positions as to whether operations may trigger the need for the court to accelerate a ruling on the preliminary injunction motion (or certain issues contained within that motion).

March 16, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 103 CLERKS NOTICE RE: CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE / MOTION HEARING: Through at least April 17, 2020, the court will not have any in-person civil case-management conferences or civil motions hearings and instead will have telephonic appearances.

March 15, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 101 Order by Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler granting in part and denying in part #100 Administrative Motion.Under the circumstances, the court does not wait the customary four days under the local rules and grants in part the motion for an extension of time at ECF No. 100.

The court appreciates the parties' continued effort to meet and confer to streamline case management. Finding good cause for an extension, the court extends the briefing schedule and modifies it as follows: Federal defendant's opposition: 3/26/2020Intervenor defendants' opposition: 3/31/2020Plaintiff's reply: 4/9/2020Motion hearing is continued one week to 4/16/2020 at 09:30 AM in San Francisco, Courtroom B, 15th Floor before Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler.
