Questions from Millstone Meeting i 1
We collected a number of questions at the Millstone Meeting. Some of which we answered and some that we didn't get to. We promised the Selectman Tony Sheridan that we would prepare written answers that could be distributed. We have grouped the questions by category and would like to have a response prepared. If possible, it would be ok to answer the grouped " question" as long as the issues are covered. We have the answers we put together for the Chairman prior to the trip and would be happy to share them with whoever gets this wonderful assignment. They should contact me, Brian or Annette for them. We would like to l get a response a soon as possible, but I think two weeks is reasonable.
l l will be happy to discuss this with you if you would like. Thanks CC: ave,beh 1

c Millstone Ouestions from Chairman's Auaust 6. 1996 Visit:
GROUP: ACCOUNTABILITY FOR NRC AND NU ACTIONS Why were all levels and limits exceeded in moving and storage of nuclear material and all procedures violated and nobody was suspended or fired because of serious violations?
Has anyone in the NRC been held accountable for the years of neglect at Millstone?
Who is being held accountable at the NRC for knowing and allowing risk for over 20 years every time a refueling was being conducted at Millstone? l Should NRC staff and Northeast Utilities (NU) employees be held accountable for disregard of regulations and other wrongdoing and pay some penalty?
When will you replace your oversight staff with officials who will enforce the regulations?
- Why has the Chairman not removed more NRC management from their l positions, can we ever expect accountability?
i Why would NRC allow many of the NRC staff responsible for current situation at Millstone to oversee startup?
Will you require full accountability from Millstone for it's actions addressed in the petitions prior to restart of any Millstone unit?
i Will you require full accountability of your Region I staff prior to the restart of any Millstone unit?
Has NU management lied to the NRC? Can you take action against management for this? What action, and when will you take it?
l l
Will NRC personnel be held accountable for allowing Millstone to operate outside its design criteria from 1970 to 1995?
Why hasn't Millstone /NU been given any penalty for not following i NRC rules (other than being shut down.)
l Why doesn't the Congress have a committee to oversee the NRC and make sure they are accountable?
To whom is the NRC responsible?
. If it were shown that Mr. Russell's and Mr. Taylor's actions contributed to the decline of the NRC's ability to regulLte effectively or fairly with respect to public safety would you consider replacing them?
l l
o'.
GROUP: SHUTDOWN AND STARTUP ISSUES How can we trust that your staff will resolve the safety issues at the Millstone plants if you allow Connecticut Yankee to restart with "similar deficiencies" and "significant weaknesses?"
Will NRC demand full compliance to safety regulations before a startup plan is considered?
Is it true that although 1200 compliance issues have been identifiel at Millstone 3, you will accept resolution of 600 in a restart plan? l Are safety and compliance with 100% of the regulations the same thing, or can a plant be run safely while working to achieve full l
compliance - make a distinction between safety and compliance? l If it's true that the ultinate decision to open the plants lies l
with the NRC, what factors will influence this decision?
How can you consider the restart of any Millstone units without resolving the issues that put them there in the first place?
Are we resolving restart issues with on-going investigations; without the cause being determined?
l i
How can inspectors listen to a proposal for unit 3 restart '
without correcting all the compliance issues; didn't the 50.54 letters require that to be done?
l Will the plants be allowed to restart and operate with known l deficiencies?
1 l Will Unit 3 be allowed to restart with a FSAR that has not been updated and declared unsound by its own engineers?
Will the Connecticut reactors be kept off line until the FSARs '
are updated as required by law? ,

GROUP: NU MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATION ISSUES How can the area people feel secure with the same management at
! NU that got us to this point?
What oversight is NRC providing over the NU management " shuffle" as a corrective action?
l l What does the NRC feel is the survivability of NU during this l period of scrutiny of Millstone?
Do you feel the bond rating will improve if Fox and Busch were dismissed and NU were led by Mr. Miller?

can NU do about it?
GROUP: NRC ESTIMATION OF REACTOR SAFETY
, once on line, are Millstone units more likely to have a nuclear i accident than any other plant in the country?
In case of a nuclear accident, is there any reason to believe that the independent safety trains wouldn't be activated to bring ,
the plant to safe shutdown?
l l Has the NRC gotten more serious in its regulation of the other nuclear power plants in this country?
Aren't the problems at Millstone due to a decade of NRC oversight, and doesn't that implicate the safety of other plants across the country?
If the NRC relies heavily on information submitted by licensees regarding FSARs amendments etc, and licensee management cannot be trusted, how can the NRC depend on this source alone for critical decisions; and what alternatives are there to this process?
If units 1 and 2 remain shut down, who is responsible for safety of these plants, NRC or NU?
GROUP: NRC SUPPORT FOR MILLSTONE STARTUP Can you say anything good about Millstone?
l r

properly monitors safe operation of our area's nuclear plants and l generates the electricity our state needs?
What is NRC doing at Millstone to get these plants back in operational condition?
i Is Millstone doing what NRC asked to get the plants back on line?
What is the NRC doing to ensure the people of southeastern Connecticut will receive safe and reliable electricity from Connecticut's nuclear power plants?
GROUP: STATUS OF 2.206 Where is NRC on Galatis petition? How can it take so long?
Why hasn't NRC addressed the 2.206 petitions of Ross and Galatis and rendered a decision prior to the restart of any units at i Millstone? '
GROUP: LONG TELA STORAGE OF HIGH LEVEL WASTE l
How can the NRC allow the nuclear industry to continue producing such deadly material before the high level waste problem is resolved?
Is dry cask storage a possibility for disposal of spent fuel? If so, shouldn't the nuclear utilities be responsible for the cost?
What happened to the National Radioactive Waste Site?
Does the NRC endorse the Senate high level waste bill, and will it recommend House passage and presidential signing?
How much waste have you accumulated to date which you are unable to move?
Do you foresee a permanent nuclear waste facility being opened in the future, and if so how can we be assured the waste will get safely to the facility?
l Why do you think waste can be maintained safely if first generation information is not passed down properly?
Could we glass encase spent fuel pellets like the French do at the various sites?-Why not?

GROUP: SPENT FUEL POOL SAFETY l
I Has the analysis of loss of spent fuel pool inventory mentioned '
on March 13 by Mr. Lanning been completed, and when will it be presented to the public? Will Part 100 requirements be addressed, and will these documents be available for public revies and comment prior to restart of the connecticut plants?
! Why isn't the spent fuel stored in safe containment buildings that would withstand an earthquake or other natural disasters or just wear and tear over the years?
l Are the other plants with spent fuel pool problems going to be
- shutdown until they are fixed too, or is the significance minor - l l not affecting the safe running of the plant? Haven't these j plants been running safely for years now?
GROUP: SAFETY OF NUCLEAR POWER IN CONSIDERATION OF CHERNOBYL, TMI, AND THE RISK VERSUS NEED OF THE POWER SOURCE. l Is the NRC planning to close our 110 defective U.S. reactors l before or after a catastrophic accident occurs, as discussed by i l
Commissioner Asselstine in 1985? '
l l Is there any remote possibility that we could have a repeat of the Chernobyl disaster?
l If nuclear power is inherently dangerous as suggested by the l President's Commission on TMI, then is nuclear power acceptable j when it is not necessary?
Will NRC promote new nuclear power plants in the US, or oversee the ultimate shutdown of the nuclear power industry in our j country?
l How would you tell parents of Down's syndrome children from TMI l that nuclear power is safe?
l l
Why is nuclear energy still considered necessary to our state and country when alternate energy sources exist?
