Dear Dr. Murley:
This letter is in reference to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's decision to initiate a
special inspection of the training of Long Island Lighting Company's personnel at the Shoreham nuclear power plant.
While New York State is pleased that the NRC is taking this step, we believe your action does not go far enough.
In particular, we believe there is need for involvement of the State and other interested parties in the inspection, and for the establishment of a means to assure that the process of the inspection and its results are substantively sound and credible to the public.
Accordingly, the State requests that you take the following additional steps:
1)
Immediately open the special inspection to participation and observation by representatives of New York State and any other parties to the Shoreham proceeding who express an interest to participate and observe.
2)
Withhold establishing the
- scope, content, and process of the investigation until the State and any other interested parties have the opportunity to work with you toward formulating mutually satisfactory objectives for the investigation.

3)
Treat the inspection as a
cooperative program with the State and any other interested parties so as to facilitate collective support-and to minimize disagreements over the workproduct.
The special investigation deals with a subject that has deeply concerned the State.
As you know, both LILCO and the NRC Staff refused to give the State a copy of LILCO's audit report and related documents on Shoreham personnel training and qualifications.
Now that the report is in the public domain, it is imperative that the NRC proceed openly and in full cooperation with the State and any other interested parties.
The State is prepared. to move forward promptly and cooperatively in contributing to the sp 1 investigation.
I look forward to your early reply and to the opportunity to work with you on thi matter of public imp rtance.
