RICHARD DIAZ-ROBAINAS
Dear Mr. Harris:
This letter will confirm two telephone conversations we have had regarding your client, Richard Diaz-Robainas, and Richard's concerns about nuclear safety at FPL's Turkey Point nuclear facility.
As you may know, Richard has already presented some'oncerns to FPL's SPEAKOUT organization.
-Richard raised those concerns at his perfor-mance review meeting (that you and I attended) on July 30,
- 1991, and then presented them to SPEAKOUT that same afternoon.
To our knowledge, this is the first time Richard has made these safety concerns known to FPL.
SPEAKOUT is currently investigating Richard's concerns.
Appro-priate followup action will be taken, as necessary.
Richard's management has discussed with him.FPL's interest in a full disclosure and a full investigation of any and all safety concerns Richard may have.
Richard has been asked to report all of his concerns to FPL management and/or to SPEAKOUT and/or to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, directly.
Zf he is uncomfortable in any way or for any reason in reporting his concerns to his management or to SPEAKOUT, we encourage him to contact the NRC directly.
The NRC can be contacted at (404) 331-4503 In our telephone conversation of last wednesday afternoon, you inti-mated that Richard may have additional nuclear safety concerns that he has not already disclosed.
As I said then, and as I repeated on Friday when we last sPoke by telephone, we encourage him to promptly report all of his concerns.
I hope that you will convey this request to him.
For your information, I am enclosing a "Notice to Employees" FPL has posted in various locations which encourages nuclear employees to bring safety, concerns to the attention of the NRC.
The Notice includes the
