RE:
Docket Nos.

(2.206)
Dear Mr Saporito:
I
C
SERYc"! m~ -6 )989
On June 20,
1989 and by supplemental letters dated June
22
(as
amended August 12)
and July 3,
1989,
you requested
the Commission
to take certain actions regarding the Turkey Point facility.
On
September
25,
1989,
the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation
(NRR) issued Director's Decision DD-89-08 denying your
request.
On October 5,
1989,
you sent to my Office (filed on
October 13,
1989)
a document entitled "Answer to Director's
Decision Under
Xn that document
you contest
the finding of the Director of NRR expressed
in DD-89-08.
You
further allege that Dr. Thomas
E. Murley, the Director of NRR is
in collusion with the licensee
and that his actions
appear to be
a violation of the public trust.
You have also requested that
a
copy of your "Answer" be filed with the Federal
Re ister and
placed in the Commission Public Document
Room.
NRC regulations provide that, within 25 days after the date of
the Director's Decision, the Commission
may on its own motion
review that decision,
in whole or in part, to determine if the
Director has
abused his discretion.
Review is at the discretion
of the Commission;
no individual has the right to such
a review.
No petition or other request for Commission review of a
Director's Decision under this section will be entertained
by the
Commission
(See
Therefore, to the extent
that you request that the Commission undertake
a formal review of
DD-89-08, I deny this request in accordance
with my authority
under
The time provided by NRC regulation within which the Commission
may act to review the Director's Decision DD-89-08 in this docket
has expired.
The Commission has declined
any review.
Accordingly, the decision
became final agency action on October
201
1989 '
o
)g89
The allegations of collusion and of a violation of public trust
by Dr. Murley expressed
in your "Answer" have been referred to
the
NRC Inspector General.
Your request to have your "Answer+
filed with the Office of the Federal Register is denied since it
is not one of the types of documents
which may be published in
the Federal
Re ister
(See
44 U.S.C. Sections
1501-1511).
However, your answer will be placed in the
NRC Public Document
Room.
The Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation will provide a
separate
response
to your "Answer".
