. Dear

.CONFIDEtmpgTJURCE It is my understanding that you have been contacted by various organizations or individuals within the NRC during the past 14 months.

There have recently been some conflicting statements of understanding in reference to the status of your original and follow-on verbal requests and/or denial of confidentiality within Region IV.

On

, it is reported that you discussed your concerns on the telephone with Messrs. J. Jaudon and T. Westerman at which time you asked to be treated as confidential.

On Messrs. D. Driskill and D. Galante met with you at your residence in Burlington, Ks. to discuss these concerns.

In that conversation you declined confidentialit'y.

On-Mr. D. Driskill telephonically contacted you at you7 residence and you indicated that you expected confidentiality relative to all your previous contacts with Region IV NRC representatives.

Mr. Driskill informed us of your wishes and in order that we might document your desire for confidentiality, please date, sign, and return the enclosed NRC Confidentiality Agreement. We will place this formal agreement in front of the Regional Administrator for his signature, and upon its signing, will include it as a permanent portion of your Region IV case file. We will return a copy of this completed agreement to you.

Mr. Driskill also advised me that you stated to him that you no longer were interested in receiving copies of NRC inspection reports.

If you have reconsidered and would like to receive a copy of Region IV's final inspection reports, in which your concerns about Wolf Creek Generating Station are addressed, please advise me of this in your return correspondence.

Enclosed is a self-addressed envelope for your use in returning the confidential agreement and whatever other writings you may desire.

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT I have information that I wish to provide in confidence to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

I request an express pledge of confidentiality as a condition of providing this information to the NRC.

I will not provide this information voluntarily to the NRC without such confidentiality being extended to me.

It is my understanding, consistent with its legal obligations, the NRC, by agreeing to this confidentiality, will adhere to the following conditions:

(1)

The NRC will not identify me by name or personal identifier in any NRC initiated document, conversation, or comunication released to the public which relates directly to the information provided by me.

I understand the term "public release" to encompass any distribution outside of the NRC with the exception of other public agencies which may require this information in furtherance of their responsibilities under law or public trust.

(2) The NRC will disclose my identity within the NRC only to the extent required for the conduct of NRC-related activities.

(3)

During the course of the inquiry or investigation the NRC will also make every effort consistent with the investigative needs of the Comission to avoid actions which would clearly be expected to result in the disclosure of my identity to persons subsequently contacted by the NRC. At a later stage I understand that even though the NRC will make every reasonable effort to protect my identity, my identification could be compelled by orders or subpoenas issued by courts of law, hearing boards, or similar legal entities.

In such cases, the basis for granting this promise of con-fidentiality and any other relevant facts will be comunicated to the authority ordering the disclosure in an effort to maintain my confidentiality.

If this effort proves unsuccessful, a representative of the HRC will attempt to infom me of any such action before disclosing my identity.

I also understand that the NRC will consider me to have waived my right to confidentiality if I take any action that may be reasonably expected to disclose my identity.

I further understand that the NRC will consider me to have waived my rights to confidentiality if I provide (or have previously provided) information to any other party that contradicts the information that I provided to the NRC or if circumstances indicate that I am intentionally providing false information to the NRC.

Other Conditions: The confidentiality granted harain is limited to the subject

.. The sub.iect matter matter of this_ allegation as discussed on,

pertains to I have read and fully understand the contents of this agreement.

I agree with its provisions.
