12. If any party or participant contests the designation of any

materials as protected, this Protective Agreement shall cease to apply to such

material fifteen (15) Business Days after the objection is filed with the

Commission unless any party, within the fifteen (15) Business Day period,

responds and asserts that the materials should continue to be protected. Any

objection to the designation of protected materials, and any response to the

objection, shall be filed in writing with the Commission and delivered to CEGT

or the objector, as applicable, and their counsel on the date of filing unless

otherwise ordered by the Presiding Judge. The Presiding Judge shall resolve
