Q.

Okay.

Now, Mr. Bridenbaugh, your, I I

I 1

11 In addition to your testimony here j

j i

'l 12 today, which isn't on the last page of that schedule,

]L.

.\\

13 there should be one other professional engagement at j p.

14 least that's added, isn't that right?

Well, I don't know that I would describe my i

Well, I guess I would have to go back and II,'.

J.:

i

i 13 see exactly what the final line was in the affidavit.

4j li ej I

14 What

[

my view of that affidavit was il 15 not to defer the startup testing, but.rather to get --

[

4 16 to encourage the NRC to do an investigation of the q.

.l-17 structural review that had or had not been completed

[,'

p l

18 with regard to hole drilling and safety-related I

l I

L 19 structures, and I wasn't particularly, at least when

[

II 20 I wrote the affidavit, tying it to an operating u;

21 license.

I did say in the affidavit that such l!

in y,

22 investigation should be performed before the plant l!,

Now, turning back to this testimony, Mr.
