March 11, 1997 EA 96-051 Mr. T. F. Plunkett President, Nuclear Division Florida Power and Light Company P.O. Box 14000 Juno Beach, FL 33408-0420
SUBJECT:
RECEIPT OF FP&L'S FINAL RESPONSE TO THE NRC'S NOTICE OF VIOLATION AND IMPOSITION OF CIVIL PENALTY (Department of Labor Case No. 92-ERA-010)
Dear Mr. Plunkett:
On July 16, 1996, the NRC issued you a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty. This will acknowledge receipt of your letter dated December 3, 1996 and your wire transfer for $100,000 in payment for the civil penalty. This penalty was based on a Secretary of Labor finding that discrimination occurred against an individual.
In your response, you continue to maintain that your treatment of the individual did not violate NRC requirements.
However, you acknowledge the importance of the issues involved in the case, and the NRC's concern that nuclear industry employees who raise safety concerns are not subject to discrimination. We will continue to examine the corrective actions you described in your response to this violation, which you have asserted provide evidence of the commitment of FP&L management to ensuring that employees who J
raise safety concerns can do so without fear of retaliati a.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790, a copy of this letter will be placed in the Commission Public Document Room.
Si cerely, ames Lieberman, Director
