MEMORANDUM FOR:

Comissioner Gilinsky g Comissioner Roberts brtific' ""a --- -

Comissioner Asselstine Comissioner Bernthal

(

FROM: William J. Dircks Executive Director for Operations

SUBJECT:

STAFF ISSUANCE OF SUBPOENAS IN FURTHERANCE OF TMI INVESTIGATION This is to advise the Comission, in accordance with the terms of its July 20, 1982, delegation of subpoena authority to the Executive Director of Operations, that the staff intends to issue forty-seven (47) subpoenas to persons who the staff believes have knowledge of reactor coolant leak rate test practices at the Three Mile Island facility prior to the accident at TMI-2.

The Regional Administrator, Region I, was requested by the Office of Investi-gations to issue these subpoenas. The requested subpoenas are required because the. individuals have indicat.ed, through counsel, that they would not voluntarily talk to NRC investigators concerning leak rate test practices in light of the ongoing Grand Jury proceeding on similar . issues. The statements of these individuals, largely TMI-2 personnel just prior to the accident, are needed in order to determine the validity of the Hartman allegations.

The Staff intends to issue these subpoenas on September 1, 1983.
