L. E. Tripp, Section Chief, ESS=1, RCKES Branch FOLLO'rl-UP CALL TO ALLEGER (AITS H06000518F01)
At approxiaately 5=15 p.m.
on january 22, 1980, I called the alleger (Robert t'ilson) m tell him that we planned to follow-up on his allegation concerning welding at the Susquehanna plant within a few days.
(This allegation was forwarded to AC Headquarters on December 28, 1979, by the U S. Attorrey's Office in Scranton, Pa.).
Our plans for follow-up were to start by having a welding specialist contact him to get specific details before sorting de on-site investigation.
~ t."hen i.reached Yu wilson on the telephone, he was suspicious of the reason d'or my call (I had identified myself and rrp organization).
He questioned if I ns a part of v. conspiracy in that he had just ca1led the white House a few minu~s previous to this call to complain about homosexuality in the=. ~~
Presidency. in 1966-67.
Mr. wilson was abusive, irrational and made numerous disorganized
- detrands, charges and threats (several were unrelated to nuclear plants).
Fe clawlred to have spent three and one-half days on the "Susquerhanna site as a welder-trainee for Bechtel.,
He alleged that Bechtel-refused m qualify him as a welder a1&ough he passed all tests.
He also said tlat Ecch el asked him to leave the site and threatened to have him arrested ar8 removal if he did not leave.
I had a grea deal of difficultyin ta.lking to Mr. Wilson to even state the -'..
purpose af my call.
~wsed or sty initia1 contact,. he does not appear to have.
any ac'mal speci.ics to support his allegation or any knowledge of matters that sm~ld be investigated.
I did indicate to Mr. Wilson that we wou1d be back in cortact ~"~A him.
He indicated that he would be available at h$ s hm.
Hr. Rilson terainated the conversation by stating, "do your job punk" and sly~rig doaa Ae receiver E. Tripp, Section Chief ESS=:1 RCK~D Branch CC-R T
