Tho above being duly sworn deposes and says:

My name is Charles Stokes.

I am submitting this statement frcely and voluntarily without any threats, inducements and coer-cien to Mr.

Thomas Devine.

This affidavit raises additional ccncerns about the NRC staff's failure to honor the rules of its own j

Allegation Management Program, and about material false state-l Ccnts by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PGandE) in response to l

provious allegations I had submitted.

1.

PGandE f alsely stated that the American Institute of Steel Ccnstruction (AISC) has endorsed the analysis of Australian papers thot appear to support the use of structural steel " angles",

cince according to an AISC representative the Institute merely i

presented the papers and the AISC Specifications Committee has l

not met, discussed nor approved the use of the Australian papers.

2.

PGandE falsely stated that the analysis in the Australian pcpers on structural steel angles is applicable for conditions at Dicbio Canyon; since the Australian analysis is based on " pure bending", which significantly underestimated the loads on the ottel, compared to the compression.and tension combined with b:nding at Diablo Canyon.

3.

I have never received any written confirmation of the ollegations I raiced to Region V, as required by their Allegation Menagement Program, although In October that region did provide written summaries of two a21egations I had made earlier to RCgion III and which were forwarded to Region V.

4.

Contrary to the thorough practices at Region III, Region V did not note in its report the corrections I made to the staff cnolysis in a June followup interview for my allegations on welding docign at Diablo Canyon, nor did Region V even note my rebuttal in its published findings, which led me to believe that my cccments were not considered and my time had been wasted through o ceaningless public relations gesture.

I have read the above two page affidavit and it is true, cccurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
