Dear Bill:

Subject:

In the Matter of Texas Utilities Electric Company, et al.

Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. 50-445-1 and 50-445-2 50-446-1 and 50-446-2 Informal Discovery Regarding _

Drug-Related Terminations and Related Developments at CPSES As discussed last week with you and Judge Bloch, we are filing the attached interrogatories and requests for documents on an informal basis.

Although we are filing this informally, we have attempted to make our questions as focussed and detailed as possible to let you know exactly what information we are after. It should also be noted that the fact that we are at this time filing this informally in no way decreases the importance wb'ch we place on this matter. We believe this is very serious, with implications for virtually all aspects of CASE's Contention 5 on OA/QC, including possibly intimidation.

If there is any information requested which you believe to be of a proprietary nature or which should for some other reason be subject of a protectiva order, please contact me so that we can attempt to work out informally an agreement in this regard to avoid unnecessary invasion of privacy, while at the same time providing us with the information we need insofar as the safety of the plant is concerned.

, We hope that it will not be necessary to pursue this further with the l

Licensing Board, and will appreciate your assistance by a prompt response.

Thanks.

Sincerely, l CASE (Citizens Association for Sound Energy) 8407090191 e40704 rs.) Juanita E211s, President PDR ADOCK 05000445 A pgg .
