I have an M.S. in Ceramic Science through a nuclear waste management traineeship with DOE. I am currently finishing my M.S.

3. Conam Inspection of Richmond, CA, provides eddy current inspection personnel and eddy current data analyst personnel to obtain and analyze steam generator tubing at a large number of the nation's operating and construciton stage nuclear plants. Steam gnerator tubing contains the primary reactor coolant which circulates in a lo po continuously from core to the steam generator.

Eddy current inpsection is a means of finding any cracks or other indications in the tubing which may eventually lead to rupture. If enough primary coolant is lost in this way the core' may become uncovered and reactor control may be lost. This is the type of problem operators are trained to handle; but the ope'rators may not be able to handle deviations from this basic problem.

4. Eddy current data at Harris has been obtained by Conam personnel I have seen deal or use cocaine. These people were involved in inspecticn/ analysis of the steam generators. Ir. October or November 1984, Conam did eddy current work at the VC Sum =er liuclear Plant near Columbia, South Carolina, operated by South Carolina Gas & Electric. One quarter to half a pound of marijuana was said by John Camburn of Conam to have been brought into the plant in an equipment case or package which was opened on-site in a Conam data ,.

analysis . The drugs had been flow to South Carolina from Richmond, California , Conam office. The person sending the drugs was alleged l to be Richard Marlow, Jr. , vice president 6f Conam. i

5. Persons employed in the Conam organization and alleged by John Camburn co be using drugs are John Funanich , Mr. Dugas (inspector) ,

Mr. Dobson (data analys t) , Mark Matheson (inspector) , and others . f . .

    ? = .. .

Page 3 All of the above worked at the Harris plant. I witnessed ' John Camburn purchase several grams of cocaine from Mel Matheson of Canam and then use it at the Mission Valley Inn in Raleigh.

6. In cy opinion, drug abuse at the Harris plant is widespread throughout the Daniel Construction Company and Carolina Power &

Light. A tougher drug testing program is required. It is very . 4 doubtful any of the above-mentioned Conam personnel could pass a random urinalysis done on the site. s f t- -. - ./ A ? Patt[Miriello f-4-f5 , C Sworn to and subscribed to before me this /p '- day of & 2 6 a/g,, 1985.
