.e December 10,1982 MEMORANDUM FOR: File THRU: R. M. Gallo, Chief, RPS1A.DPRP E. G. Greenman, Chief, RPB1, DPRP FROM: A. C. Cerne, Sr. Resident Inspector, Seabrook

SUBJECT:

ANONYMOUS DRUG CONCERNS On December 7,1982, Mr. J. Singleton (YAEC Field QA Manager at Seabrook) showed the SRI a copy of an anonymous letter (attached) expressing concerns overdruguse(eg: apparentlymarijuana)atSeabrook. Mr. Singleton -

informed the SRI that certain actions were being taken by PSNH construction management personnel and that these actions were being handled confidentially.

As background information, NRC inspection report 443 & 444/80-01 documents preliminary inquiries in early 1980 by Mr. Cerne and a Region I investigator into indictments at Seabrook which were the culmination of an undercover drug investigation initiated by the licensee. A copy of this IR was sent to the office of the Governor of New llampshire on March 11,1980(see attachment 2)'. More recently, as part of an FOIA request (82-524) from the

Assistant Attorney General from New Hampshire, documents were requested which " relate to an assessment, evaluation or review of the adverse effect of alcohol and drug use within the work force at the Seabrook facility on the quality of design and construction".

The SRI discussed the attached letter and concerns with R. K. Christopher, OIPFO. Based upon the lack of specific details and lack of any allegation of improper work, the SRI recomends no further NRC inspection and inves-tigative effort. However, based upon the precedent set by the earlier NRC inquiry and recent FOIA interest, the SRI deems it important for regional management to decide any future course of action with an understanding that the State of N.H. is an intervenor in the Seabrook licensing proceedings and that concern over drug use at Seabrook has the potential to become once again a highly visible and public issue.

,- Attachment 3 April 18, 1984 Mr. Joseph Moriarty .

Business Agent -

Construction & General Laborers Union Local 976 Portsmouth, N.H. 03801

Dear Mr. Moriarty; ,

I wish to file a grievance against Perini Power Constructors Inc., for unlawfully discharging me on April, 17, 1984, for Project Rule #6, and also breech of contract that guaranteed me six months of steady employment with ho lay-offs; I only worked three months on this contract before I was terminated.

The reason Joe McGonagle terminated me on April 17, 1984, was because I made contact with the Vice-president of the Public Service Company of N.H. , William Derrickson, who is in charge of the Seabrook Project. I saw Mr. Derrickson for the first time, March 19, 1984, at the legislative office building in Concord, N.H., as I was attending a Public Utilities Conunission meeting that focused on the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant and Public Services ability to pay for the project At intermission, March 19, 1984, I introduced myself to Mr. Derrickson and told him I was a laborer working for Perini and that-I was trying to crack down on the drug & alcohol abuse at the job site.

Mr. Derrickson was very interested on what I was doing to crack down on the problem and he asked me to contact him at the site at any time, and he gave me his extension phone #4400 at the Seabrook Nuclear

- Power Plant or to contact him at the Public Service Company of N.R. office, as he said he was most . interested in helping me deal with the issue. He wanted me to set up a meeting with him so he could go over it in great detail.

Last week, I finally got hold of Mr. Derrickson on the ph'one, and he scheduled an appointment for Tuesday, April 17,1984 at 5 :00P.M.

at the Public Service Company of N.H. office on the 19th floor in Manchester, N.H.

On Monday, April 16, 1984, I was called into Joe McConagle's office and Mr. McGonagle questioned me about a couple of phone calls I was making on the job site. I told him I called Mr. Derrickson, Public Service Company of N.H. and Dick Strome, Director of Civil Defense for the State of New. Hampshire and who works for Governor Sununu.

Mr. McGonagle was intimidating me and belittling me, because of the j actions I took calling these people. He felt I went against my

/ contract by going over his head in the Perini Corp. , but I stated to him and Roy_ Capra, who is head of the supervisors for Perint Power {

Constructors Inc. , that I exhausted the chain of command for Perini by coming to him several times since my return back to work on January 16, 1984, for several alcohol and drug complaints that was going on in my work area at the pump house. I was constantly frustrated through the acts of the Perini Corp., condoning the alcoho:

in the pump

,. ' house and drug problem at the Seabrook Station; especiall7'new area. I had no alternative but to go to the kid on the block", William Derrickson, who just started working at the site for j

Public Service Company of N.H., I had Mr. Derrickson's permission

! to seek his wisdom and possible solutions to minimize this problem,

! and I also had approval and guidance from Governor Sununu's legal advisor, Steve Merrill, to go ahead and sit down with Mr.

Derrickson and have this meeting.

Because of this, I feel I did not go against the Project Rule #6, nor

. did I breech my end of the contract by going to Mr. Derrickson after exhausting the chain of cotanand, from my foreman on the field, all the way to the project manager, Bill Dileo at Perini Power Constructors.

I honestly feel I was most patient and sincere with the Perini people but they were unwilling to help me in trying to minimize the alcohol and drug problems at Seabrook Station. Consequently, I feel I kept my end of the bargain and Perini failed to.

I would wish the powers to be to reinstate me at the job site since -

I did not violate any Project Rules nor my contractual agreement with Perini. I suffered enough physical I and mental abuse on the job should not have to.take a site since I have been back there.

  • financial set back because of Perini's negligence.and insensitivity, '

to myself, my family, but most of all, Seabrook Station.

i Sincerely, i

i cc: Joseph McGonagle, Labor Relations Director for Perini I Governor John Sununu Attorney Eugene Vantoan III Secretary Raymond Donovan, U.S. Labor Department Conunissioner Vance Kelly, N.H. Labor Department William Borchardt, Nuclear Regulatory Commission l
