October 14, 2022 Filing 2643 Text Order. On September 16, 2022, the Court unsealed all exhibits cited in its order denying Defendants' motion for summary judgment on government contractor immunity. (Dkt. No. 2067). On September 19, 2022, the Court granted the government's request to stay the unsealing order. (Dkt. No. 2067). The government and defendant 3M subsequently filed briefing regarding the unsealing order. (Dkt. Nos. 2617, 2618). After consideration of the noted briefing, the Court finds that, with the exception of certain exhibits noted infra, the unsealing of all exhibits cited in the summary judgment order is required because the public's right of access to court records predominates over any private interest in confidentiality. See Doe v. Public Citizen, 749 F.3d 246 (4th Cir. 2014). The Court finds, however, that as to the deposition of John Farley, only that portion of said deposition cited in the Court's order on government contractor immunity shall be unsealed as the remainder contains "confidential Navy testing of AFFF products and fire suppression systems on advanced Navy ship classes." (Dkt. No. 2606 at 2). Plaintiffs are directed to supply the clerk a version of Farley's testimony containing only those sections cited in the summary judgment order. The Court also declines to unseal Defendants' Exhibit 109, Dkt. Nos. 1971-9 (slipsheet) & 2594-10 (under seal), which is the unredacted, Highly Confidential Department of Defense Inspector General report entitled Evaluation of the Department of Defense's Actions to Control Contaminant Effects from Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances at Department of Defense Installations ("DoD IG Report"). As noted by the government, a redacted version of the DoD IG Report is publicly available and the unredacted version raises issues related to deliberative privilege. (Dkt. No. 2617 at 1-2). Further, as to the deposition of John Butenhoff, the Court declines to unseal pages 404:6-408:12 as they contain irrelevant, personal health information. See Davis v. Elwyn, 2021 WL 4902333 at *4 (E.D. Pa. Oct 20, 2021) (quoting Moore v. CVS Rx Servs., Inc., 660 F. App'x 149, 153 N.4 (3d Cir. 2016)). Plaintiffs are directed to supply the clerk a replacement of Plaintiffs' Exhibit 7, (Dkt. No. 2063-7), in which the testimony at 404:6-408:12 is redacted. AND IT IS SO ORDERED.

February 22, 2022 Filing 2186 TEXT ORDER This Order Relates to Case No. 2:19-cv-03120-RMG re #2182 (in case 2:18-mn-02873-RMG; (117) in case 2:19-cv-03120-RMG). Defendants move to compel the continued Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of third-party CDM Smith, Inc. They argue that the initial designee was unable to testify to the noticed topics, warranting a continued deposition. They also note that a replacement designee, former employee Dora Chiang, Ph.D., will be deposed on February 24, 2022 and, should her "testimony provide the necessary discovery, Defendants should be able to forgo the continued Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of CDM Smith." As a result, the need to compel a continued deposition may become moot on February 24th. The Court, therefore, DENIES WITHOUT PREJUDICE WITH LEAVE TO REFILE Defendants' motion promptly thereafter. The Court is aware that fact discovery in the water provider bellwether cases is scheduled to conclude on February 21, 2022. The Court is amenable to extending that deadline in this specific instance to avoid potentially unnecessary briefing or status reports on an issue that may soon resolve. AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
