June 21, 2005 MEMORANDUM TO: File RIII-2005-A-0062 FROM: Pruel P~ ce Allegation Coordinator, Region III

SUBJECT:

RECEIPT OF ALLEGATION (POINT BEACH)

On June 20, 2005, I received a call from a concerned individual (CI) who stated that s/he was discriminated against (access denied to the plant) for 'reporting that s/he inadvertently dropped a wrench from a scaffold. The Cl's name, address, and phone number are listed separately in the allegation file. The Cl worked as a carpenter for Day and Zimmerman, MPS, Inc.

On March 22, 2005, while a scaffold was being erected, the Cl Inadvertently dropped a wrench from the scaffold. The scaffold was being erected on the 26' elevation of the Unit 2 turbine hall near the water box. The wrench fell from the scaffold, through the 26' floor opening. and landed next to the water box on the 8' elevation.

The Cl reported the dropped wrench to the supervisor, a condition repqrt was written (CAP 062966), and the Cl's access was denied on the same day. CAP 062966 is attached. The Cl was informed that s/he failed to use a lanyard with the wrench even though it was discussed during a pre-job brief. The Cl claims that lanyards were in short supply (not all tool pouches had them) and that it was not discussed during a pre-job brief. CAP 062966 states under the why did this occur section that, OLanyards were not readily available and are in short supply.'

The Cl stated that another employee dropped a piece of diamond plate and still worked at Point Beach.

The Cl requested a review of his access denial on April 20, 2005, and has received no response from the licensee.

The Cl did not object to having his/her Identity released, and did not object to referring issues to the licensee.
