PUBLIC SERVICE INDIANA S. W. Shields St. Vice Presdent Nuclear Division December 19,1980

Dear Fellow Employee:

From the start of work on the Marble Hill nuclear project, Public Service Indiana has been dedicated to safety. This is our very fi'st priority. Safety as well as quahty, of course, starts with each one who has even a modest role in the physical work of the project. We are convinced that the work that has already gone into the constniction is of the highest order. Craft work, quality assurance and quality control have, for the most part, been very effective.

However, we and the world know that all has not gone well on the project. Problems which should have come to light promptly were not identified. While none of the problems has created serious weaknesses increasing the possibility of radiation leakage or structural failure, they have eroded public confidence in the job. Public Service Indiana is totally responsible to the Nuclear Regulatory Commis-sion to assure that all work meets the necessary requirements and we intend to fully correct all defi-ciencies. To safeguard against future problems, I urge you to promptly communicate any lapse or deviation from performance standards that has come to your attention m the past or may come to your attention in the future.

All work, equipment and material involved in safety-critical areas must meet the requirements of the Quality Assurance programs. Such work also is subject to a much greater level of inspection, surveillance and documentation. If, at any time, you see areas of work or inspection that you feel are not meeting quality requirements, I urge you to report them to your supervisor. If, however, you do not feel this is appropriate you may wish to cor: tact me or any of the following Public Service Indiana or Nuclear Regulatory Commission personnel:

Lorren O. Ramsett, Seth W. Shields, W. M. Petro, Quality Assurance Manager, Sr. Vice President-Nuclear Division, Project Director, Home: 912-282-0629 Home: 812-265-3460 Home: 812-866-3102 Office: 812 289-1000 Office: 812 289 1000 Office: 812 289-1000 E4t.1240 Ext.1200 Ext.1371 Lloyd A. Crews, James G. Keppler, J. J. Harrison, Vice President-Construction, Director, Enforcement & Inspection, NRC Resident Inspector, Home: 317-745-2468 Region ill, NRC, Office: 812 293-3334 Office: 317-838 1216 24-hour phone: 312-932 2500 (Call collect)

Any such matters brought to our attention will be treated confidentially and will receive full review and attention. No employee's job will be jeopardized as a result. You have the right and obligation to act whenever you feel job quality is being compromised.

With all of us working together, we have the opportunity to make this project an outstandmg example of safety and quality.

Sincerely,

/
