io/~/ai 3

%hat ve find today is that despite pe"haps the 4 "-t ff's best e fcrts, ve had some very substantial I

5 undetected errors that came u" after an operatirg license 6 vas issue".

Ard fcr that reason, on be.al cf the peo le 8 live arcurd the pl nt, I vou' like tc l'e the Zta

.o 9 t ke a

ve y c ref ul look a t the vork t'G"- '

choir g, at the 1p "uality assurance program.

And I vould 1'ke to re@Des that 11 the Staff recommend an independent auc't of the seismic 12 reana'ys's-13 5B.

DEhTOH -

I think ve are getting an 'deper de"...

q4 aud t.

I assume ve are getting an independent audit through 15 the vork that Dr. Cloud is doing.

That is one reason I 16 vanted the reverification program plar. submitted, so ve can 17 look at it in advance to 'see if ve think it is really 18 adequa te And I vould certainly velcome any comments you 19 might have on that plan after ve have had a chance to see it 2p from the company And ve vill have our ovn look at these 21 same areas, of course.

22 NB.

BBOWÃc Harold, let me follov up cn that I

23 am not sure if maybe David is satisfied.

But tc the extent 24 that an independent audit ought to be pursued, it really 25 ought to be vhat ve vould consider independent, at least to ALDERSON REPORTING COMPANY. INC.

And I say this not casting anv doubts on Dz-5 Cloud 's integrity or his capability.

I st'u'ate these fzcx' the beginning.

It is just that the natural inclination of 7 people vho have s udies and aud'ts done by these vhc l ave 8 been found to have comm. tted an error is not to take 9 necessa ily vith the same enthusiasm ar. au" it the way they 10 would if done by an independent par y rct be'ng unded by 1

11 tha individual oz pa" ty that corm'ted the erzc" 12 Fnd th t is abcut as gerr tly and a s trunca te" a

13 sentence as I could use to try to show as much respect as I 14 can to Dr Cloud, because, as I said, I am not in any way 15 challenging his qualifications oz his integrity, and I 16 stipulate those to begin with.

17 But I think a party that does not have eithe" an 18 interest or a

sour "e of funding from. the pa-ies interested 1g in the question 20 ER.

DENTON:

I think I ut derstand the point you 21 are

making, and we vill certainly take it under advisemert.

FLEISCHAKERc I want to make it perfectly 23 clear that we are not accusing PGCE of dissembling here, and 24 we are not accusing the Sta ff either-It is really a

25 question that we have got everybody here that shares the AI.DEASON AEPOMING COMPANY. INC.
