The more vocal of th 11ed today. He first spoke with Brain McDermott who told him (what I told him to say) that Kathy is working on a status letter and he (the alleger) should receive it by the end of the month. The alleger wants to know about the completeness of the investigation and he heard that Ol was going to investigate. he asked if this occurred. I told the alleger that I cannot answer his question right now, but will answer his question in the status letter (maybe I can attach the letter I am sending to the licensee....more on this later on). l The alleger is aware of the last 01 investigation (because he is also associated witn other allegation files) and I told him that he could FOIA it. He probably will.

The alleger said that current employees feelif they make one mistake..:they could be --

fired. The alleger said that PP&L is making it out to be more deliberate than it really was. I told the alleger that we had an enforcement conference and that management's expectations and problems in communication were discussed. I also told the alleger that the licensee needs to follow all of their procedures and there is no right answer for not performing the tasks. I told the alleger that he can tell PP&L employees that if there is a compromise to safety or if they have a safety concern, they can call the NRC.

BTW: Yesterday, I discussed this case with Letts, Holody and Swetland. Result: I will write a letter to the licensee describing the events of the last 6 months and mentioning Byrum's talk with Hub and the NRC's expectation that PP&L take allegations more seriously. I will also ask for the licensee's investigation which is dragging to be p .h}

. completed ASAP. pN This allegation will be 180 days come 12/20/97 and we have not dono anything except monitor the licensee's investigation which is taking forever. We can uiscuss this at the DRP monthly status meeting on 12/18/97.
