o Q
0W I am writing to ask you to see to it that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission carries out a comprehensive, independent investigation into alleged safety violations at the Seabrook nuclear power plant before it considers granting the utility a
low-power testing license.
L Former employees at the plant have recently come forward and testified to a long list of alarming conditions and procedures at the construction site.
These include epidemic levels of drug and alcohol abuse on the job, electrical cables along the inside of the containment vessel walls that give off sparks and ignite
.(
small
- fires, a
clogged and inadequate fire protection
- system, J
improper mixtures used in the containment cement, empty beer cans 3
and bottles dropped into wet containment cement (which may create air pockets),
improper training procedures for various
- jobs,
,i including delicate welding work, and much m' ore.

Please let the NRC know in no uncertain terms that the citizens in your state are aware of the allegations being made by Seabrook construction
- workers, and that they will not be satisfied with the Commission undertaking anything less than a well-designed, well-monitored, and independentinvestigation of these claims.
Thank you for giving your attention to this matter.
Sincerely, O
