DECs 1986 Billie Pirner Garde, Esquire Government Accountability Project Midwest Office IN RESPONSE REFER 3424 Marcos Lane TO F01A,p6-A-13 Appleton, WI 54911 (F01A-8F59)

Dear Ms. Garde:

This is in partial response to your letters dated February 26 and 28, 1986, which appealed Mr. Donnie H. Grimsley's letters dated December 3 and 24,1985, and February 24, 1986, with regard to the denial of portions of 12 documents and 3 documents in their entirety. These documents were subject to your Freedom of Information Act (F0IA) request for documents related to the NRC Comanche Peak Task Force.

Acting on your appeal, I have carefully reviewed the record in this case and l

have determined that the previously withheld information in thirteen documents will continue to be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Exemption (5) of the F0IA (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(5)) and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(5) of the Connission's regulations.

Therefore, your appeal concerning thirteen documents is denied.

Documents A-11 and A-77 were initially denied pursuant to Exemption (4) of the F0IA because they contain commercial information provided in confidence to the NRC. The originators of these documents have been requested to review the documents in order to help NRC make a determination if any portions can now be made publicly available.

I will inform you later of my determination concerning these two docurrents.

Document C-352 is a draft which is clearly predecisional because it was prepared i

prior to and in the course of reaching a final agency decision. This document describes preliminary staff thinking and, therefore, contains preliminary advice, opinions, and recommendations of the staff. Exemption (5) was intended to permit the agency's withholding of such documents to preserve the free and candid internal dialogue necessary for the careful formulation of agency decisions.

As stated in Mr. Grimsley's December 3,1985 letter, the withheld portions of documents C-254, C-257 through C-262, C-584 through C-586, C-625, and C-631 relate to the subject of potential violations. - The withheld portions were predecisional to the issuing of the enforcement action on Comanche Peak.

I Exemption (5) shields from mandatory disclosure information generated in the deliberative process that precedes most decisions of government agencies.

861211o125 e61209 DE A-13 PDR

e Ms. Garde I

)

3 This is a final agency action on the Appendix C documents. As set forth in the F0IA (5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(B)), judicial review of this decision is available in a district court of the United States in the district in which you reside, have your principal place of business or in the District of Columbia, i

Sincerely,

and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(7)(iv) of the Comission'.s regulations because they contain the names of allegers and other identifying information concerning individuals who provided information to the NRC during the agency's investigative activities. These records are being withheld in their entirety because their release would disclose the identity of confidential sources.

Twenty-one of the Appendix C documents listed below are being withheld in part, as indicated by asterisks, and the remaining 31 documents contain deletions without invocation of an F0IA exemption, for the reasons set out following the document listing:
