PDR accession number is identified beside each document description. The documents listed on the enclosed Appendix H are being placed in the PDR.
One of the issues in the TMI-1 restart proceeding was whether or not GPU discriminated against or harassed Richard D. Parks. Therefore, PDR docket file 50-289 may contain some information of interest to you. Also, there were two lawsuits, TMIA v. NRC, 3rd Cir. No. 85-3301 and Shumaker v. NRC, 3ra Cir.
M No. 85-3283, that may contain some information of interest to you.
The documents listed on the enclosed Appendix I are being withheld from public disclosure pursuant to the exemptions noted beside the document descriptions.
