ORDER
PER CURIAM
Upon consideration of the motion for summary affirmance, the response thereto, and the reply; and the motion for leave to participate as amici curiae and the opposition thereto, it is
ORDERED that the motion for summary affirmance be granted substantially for the reasons stated by the district court in its memorandum order filed August 13, 1996. The merits of the parties' positions are so clear as to warrant summary action. See Taxpayers Watchdog, Inc. v. Stanley, 819 F.2d 294, 297 (D.C.Cir. 1987) (per curiam); Walker v. Washington, 627 F.2d 541, 545 (D.C.Cir.) (per curiam), cert. denied, 449 U.S. 994 (1980). It is
FURTHER ORDERED that the motion for leave to participate as amici curiae be dismissed as moot.
The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing. See D.C.Cir. Rule 41.
