SUBJECT:
NRC OFFICE OF INVESTIGATIONS REPORT NO. 2-2004-020
Dear Mr. Crane:
This letter refers to an investigation conducted by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Office of Investigations (OI) to determine if a supervisor at the LaSalle County Station deliberately instructed personnel to violate a fire protection program procedure by logging fire watches at the targeted times instead of the actual times the fire watch inspections were performed. Based on the evidence developed during the investigation, we did not substantiate the issue. The synopsis from the OI report of investigation is enclosed.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter, please contact James Heller or Magdalena Gryglak of the NRC Region III staff at telephone number (630) 829-9500.
