JUL 2 51985 Scott A. Klion, Esquire General Electric Company 260 Long Ridge Road IN RESPONSE REFER Stamford, CT 06904 TO F01A-85-461
Dear Mr. Klion:
This is a second partial response to your letter dated June 25, 1985, in which you requested, pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (F0IA), copies of documents dated from July 26, 1984, to present between Mr. Ratner and any Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) employee. You excluded 18 specified documents from the scope of your request.
The documents listed on the enclosed Appendix B are subject to your request and are enclosed.
Please note that some of the documents that we are providing are merely the transmittal notes or cover pages to a series of documents provided by Mr. Ratner.
It is our understanding that your acceptance of those cover pages and not the underlying attachments was agreed to in your telephone conversation with Edward Schomaker and Kostantina Pappas on July 23, 1985.
The documents listed on the enclosed Appendix C are already publicly available at the NRC's Public Document Room (PDR) located at 1717 H Street, NW, Washington, DC. The PDR accession number is indicated beside each document description. Enclosed is a notice which explains charges and procedures for obtaining documents from the PDR.
The search for and review of additional records subject to your F0IA request have not yet been completed. We will notify you upon completion of search and review.

Dear Mr. Taylor:
But for a breakdown in our word processor, you would have had Chapter II on Monday, March 11, 1985.
I have just acquired a copy of a memorandum dated March 1, 1985, and apparently circulated on March 5, 1985, from C. M. Vaughan, Manager, Regulatory Compliance, to W. W. McMahon, Manager, Quality Assurance, with copies, among others, to Sheely, number two in cosumand of the-Cheaet Lab. I have underlined the portions that are of particular interest and significance.
In my opinion, the most damning admission is on Page 12 where
_C T
Vaughan admits that the Company considers NRC's investigations super-y F -J ficial.
One could hardly expect so authoritative a corroboration of our J,
charges in the Petition and Chapters I and 11 thereof.
i Your immediate action is urgently requested.
Very truly yours,
/

o Incinerator Incinerator operation continues to be marginal.
Recent burns have shown an average of about 34 boxes per burn.
The recent adjustments to the measurement system have reduced, bat not eliminated, the negative bias.
This means that, in most cases, there is more uranium in the incinerator than the measurement system shows.
In recent burns this bias has varied from about
+5.0 to -16 kqs.
(Megattve values mean an underestimate of uranium in the systems.)
The average value for recent burns the has been about -6 kgs for the primary measurement system, and about -7 kgs for the diverse measurement system.
