Decenter 27, 1978 A:
_ r r.cw, the Critical Mass Energy Project is a consumer organization f 3ur f e d 5-
?siph Seder that is concerned about the safety and reliability of U.S.
ener;y tec'nolegies.
On the basis of the Preliminary Notice, we believe there are secer:1 basic safety nd procedural iroblems plaguing the Wolf Creek nuclear f a ci' i ty --c.ich e s t be fully aired and resolved before any further construction is r e r-i t t e d.
The citizens of Kansas dese; ve no less.
F r a r% 1:., it appears that the quality of construction at Wolf Creek is D e f l '.
- eficient and that neither the licensee nor Daniel Construction is et
- rer+r: :t ble cf assuring that the workmanship at.the site is satisfactory.
1: a t: ti-- dl; a pp ears that the licensee has not been fully fortheeming in prompt 1; serious design problem and hoped it could cover up such otifying "FC steut a deficien:ies.
This type of attitude on the part of the licensee, if confirmed, would be urrardonable and should subject the licensee to NRC disciplinary action.
We t'+:efore request that the Commissioners revoke the construction permit for / elf Creek. antil the licensee has clearly demonstrates that it has taken carr+ctice 2nd reredial action to upgrade the quality assurance and c 91ity control e:tanisms at the reactor site.
We also believe that unless fully satisfst:cr: explsnatien has been issued by the licensee for the six month d el ay ir reparting th e event, the CP should be suspended.
An official deter-
-ins:ier c f whether the licensee should be subjected to disciplinary action should also c:- ence.
We w _id finally hope that the Lemmission would evaluate the ILE capabilities f o r 7 e g i a r I'l to deter-ine if action is necessary to improve the agency's inspection rregrar-
!:{EP weuld be grateful for any notification of action taken with respect to the licensee or Region IV I&E activities.
Ycur a:tention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
Sir : rely,
