R. E. Hall, Chief. Engineering Support Section

SUBJECT:

HEMSPAPER ARTICLE REGARDING WATERFORD, UNIT 3 DN 50-382 Pursuant to your request, I contacted the author of the enclosed news-paper article regarding the " allegation" contained in the third coluni.

Mr. Jim Ar:oss (504 586-3560) is a staff writer for the New Orleans States Item, the New Orleans afternoon paper. After identifying myself to him, he indicated that he had no further inforration than that pre-sented in the article.

The three concrete workers he talked to w re working on the Intake Structure, a nonsafety related structure; but did say their conr.cnts also were applicable to prior work on the plant proper. He did not know if they were J. A. Jones or Bob Bros. workers.

Only J. A. Jones did safety related work at Waterford, Unit 3.

I tried to impress upon him how important it is to obtain sufficient specifics to pennit pursuit of all allegations; and that if he does get allegations, we would follow to completion any he relayed to us.

L His moral obligation to help assure the safety of the Waterford, Unit 3 facility was stressed, as were our statutory obligations. Zie was given the RIV telephone number should further items be brought to his attention. The Waterford, Unit 3 NCR process was also explained to him.
