l October 8, 1990 Dr. R. A. Karam, Director Neely Nuclear Research Centar Georgia Institute of Technology Dear Dr. Karams 4

I regrat that I must offer my resignation from the position of Nannger, Office of Radiation Spfaty and Senior Research Scientist offective November 2, 1990 After carefull consideration I feel that it is impossible for me to work effectively within the structure of the radiation safety program at Georgia Tech.

I believe that the Manager, office of Radiation Safety (M.O.R.S. )

lacks sufficient operational freedom to adequately conduct the radiation safety program.

Specifically, health physics staff appear to be under the dual control of the H.O.R.S.

and the facility Associate Director.

On a personal basis, I have been discouraged from j

==Mng even minor decisions without first consulting you and Dr.

Revnin.

I also object to suggestions from yoursplf and Dr.

i Revsin that I should not, in the

future, document observed 1

regulatory violations or proposed program improvements.

I cannot, in good conscience, take responsibility for a program whose priorities I cannot set and in which I must comprcmise my professional judgments.

Sincerely, 7
