Memo to Madsen 2
October 30, 1961 The preceding paragraphs show that the inspector was on site approximately half of August and half of September 1981. Additionally, some time was spent packing office materials in order to report to my new assignment on October 5.1981. As you know. try Pt.I assignment was extended to allow additional time for obtaining l
a new RRI.
I resweed routine inspection on October 14, 1981 after the training j
seminar and the holiday.

Construction status Licensee construction work has continued to lag behind because of design problene. DuM eg this peM ed the licensee announced the replacement of the M ($rewn & Root)aand announced that Bechtel power Corporation would become E as well as assume QA and Project Management responsibility. This will occur dud ng the next twelve to eighteen months and will affect the schedule.
l Monpower remains at approximately 2.700, the same levels as reported in the l
