Subject:

ASLB Deposition of Evert Mouser During his deposition of January 3,1984, Mr. Evert Mouser, a former QC inspector at Comanche Peak, described meetings between himself and TUGC0 QA management that may have been an example of intimidation. Judge Bloch at

p. 22788 expressed hope that, "the Staff working intimidation will consider what Mr. Mouser has said and his familiarity with these questions." This matter is being examined by the TRT staff, but is being brcught to the attention of the Intimidation Panel as wel I have enclosed the pertinent transcript excerpt.

You should also address your comitment to assure the establishment of a quality first attitude by your management and employees, as well as describe any evaluation, programs or other efforts underway or to be undertaken m

directed at this situation.

Your written response to the foregoing matters should be provided within 30 days of your receipt of this request.
