Meeting w/Salem HC alleger - Tuesday 9/9/03, 10:00 a.m.

After several conversations back and forth with the alleger and the alleger's attorney, I have confirmed that they will come for the interview on Tuesday 919103.at 10:00 a.m. We have informed Eileen Neff so that she can arrange for the court reporter.

The alleger indicated that she would be leaving South Carolinag so that she can have some time to go through the documentation she has at her home in before coming to KOP. I told her that we may want copies of some or all of the additional informatfione brings, and she has no

-problem with that. She indicated that she will bring the audio tapes as long as we can copy them and get them back to her. I told her that I was pretty sure that we could do that.

When I initially called her back this afternoon, I made sure that she understood that we are giving a lot of attention to activities at Salem/HC, and that we have accelerated our normal processes in response to the concerns she has raised '. I told her that I wanted to assure her that we were not just waiting for her interview before doing anything,. because she had given me some impresion in a call this morning that we might not be acting quickly enough. She assured me that that was not her intention in the earlier call. My overall impression is that as she has gotten more deeply into this matter with us, she reallized that she wanted to have the face-to-face discussion with us more quickly than the originally planned date. Her attorney offered that he had the same impression, indicating that she "wants to get this off her chest."

She (and her attorney) also made a couple of requests. First, her attorney asked if it was possible for the NRC to pay for her transportation here, as she had informed him (after he inquired) that I had not made any offer to reimburse her for her expenrses. 1. told. the attorney that I was not sure about the answer and that I would have to get back to him. He said that was OK, and that if any reimbursement was possible, if would be no problem if it was provided after the fact. In a subsequent call with the alleger, she wanted to make sure that I understood that she'didn't even intially thinka6bout reimbursement and that that was not an issue f.or her, but that her attorney had suggested that the q.uestion be asked. I assured hier that I would ask cognizant staff here in the Region about how this is handled and get back to her.

She also asked me if Hub would be in the office next Tuesday. I told her that I did not know.what his schedule was or whether he would even be in-the office that day. She indicated that, if at all possible, she wvodul like to meet Hub. I told her that I would get back to her on this.
