APPLICANTS.
In those answers, item No. 2 requested the names N
of CCANP members who assisted Mr. Sinkin in answering Applicant Interrogatories. Since the hearing, Mr. Sinkin has reviewed the file of working notes from which the answers in question were prepared. Based on this review, Mr. Sinkin now supplements his answer to state:
"In answering the Interrogatories, I was assisted by a Mr. Patrick O'Mara. Mr. O'Mara was not a member of CCANP to the best of my recollection, but did assist me by referencing information already in our possession to the Applicants' ques tions.
Mr. O'Mara w'as net involved in collecting any informa-tion, only in organizing information already on hand."
On March 17, 1981,- CCANP representatives met with Appil-cant representative to discuss additionel information sought by Applicants in response to Applicant's second interrogatories.
Y Below are the answers sought, including answers potentially covered by the protective order entered by the Board on March 18, 1981.

?Icns were being substantiated.

" Daniel E. Swayze" 6.(c) Names of persons who refused to provide Information for fear of losing his or her job.
CCANP was contacted by a person who stated he worked in the electrical department at STNP and that there was very poor work.manship regarding holders of high voltage lines. Said person did finally agree to a meeting but failed to appear. CCANP attempted to get this person to agree to a meeting, but this person expressed fear for his job with Brown and Root, Inc..
Subsequent attempts by both CCANP and CEU to locate this person failed.
It is possible the person used an assumed name, but in case the name gi4en is the real name, this name will be provided under separate cover for inclusion under the protective order.
The only other persons relevant to this interrogatory are persons - whom Mrs. Buchern talked to. Other than people named on the 1981 tape given to l&E, CCANP cannot recall any names of persons who expressed this sentiment."
- 40. Identify exactly that portion of the PRC Regulations and/cr Scuth Texas Project Quality Assurance ' Procedures which CCANP

" pour cards" referenced in Contention I,
Paragraph d.,
which you assert has been falsified.
"At the March 17, 1981 meeting with Applicant representa-tives, CCANP representatives-recalled another allegation of falsification. A letter recounting that allegation, the source of the allegation, and the alleged falsifiers has been sent to NRC l&E. Washington for investigation. Rather than compromise k
'. the investigation, CCANP awaits l&E determination of the vali-dity of the charge."
As to the names on the tape fr'om Mr. Swayze's attorneys, I have sent Mr. Swayze a letter requesting his permission to release the tape to the NRC. If such permission is received, I will review the tape to see if there are matters related to Contentions 1 and 2 or where questioning of the inspectors is
.Iikely to lead to information. relevant to Contentions I and 2.
If there is such information or the likelihood of such informa-tion being developed, I will provide the names to the Applicants either under the protective order or in the witness Iist."
