SEP 29 1986 Docket 50-341 hs. Billie Pirner Garde Government Accountability Project Midwest Office IN RESPONSE REFER 3424 Marcos Lane TO FOIA-86-373 AND Appleton, WI S4911 APPEAL 86-A-124 {

}

Dear Ms. Garde:

This is in response to your letter dated May 16, 1986, in which you requested, )

pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), documents related to hRC l reviews, inspections and evaluations of the Fermi 2 Health Physics Department, from January 1984 to the present.

The documents identified on enclosed Appendix A are being placed in the hRC Public Document Room (PDR) located at 1717 H Street, NW, Washington, DC 20555, in file folder F01A-86-373 in your name. Copies of the documents are also being placed in the Local Public Document Room (LPDR) for Fermi located at the Monroe County Library System, 3700 S. Custer Road, Monroe, MI 48161. The decuments identified on enclosed Appendix B are already in the PDR. We have indicated the PDR accession number beside each document description.

Documents identified at numbers 1 through 3 on enclosed Appendix C are bein withheld in their entirety from public disclosure pursuant to Exemption (5)g of the F0IA, 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(5), and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(5) of the Comission's <

regulations. Information withheld pursuant to Exemption (5) consists of draf ts or records containing the preliminary advice, opinions, ar,d recomen-dations of members of the staff. Release of this type of information would tend to inhibit the frank and candid exchange of information in future deliberations and thus would not be in the public interest. There are no reasonably segregable factual portions because release of the facts would permit an indirect inquiry into the predecisional process of the agency.

Document 4 on Appendix C is being withheld in its entirety from disclosure pursuant to Exemption (7)(a) of the F0IA, 5 U.S.C.(b)public(7)(A),and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(7)(i) of the Commission's regulations. Information withheld pursuant to Exemption (7)(A) consists of an investigatory record compiled for law enforcement purposes the release of which would interfere with an ongoing enforcement proceeding. Release of this information could allow those being investigated to learn the scope, direction, and focus of investigatory efforts, and thus could possibly allow them to take action to shield potential wrongdoing or a violation of NRC requirenents from investigators, gO1 6 860929 GARDE 86-A-124 paa

[

Ms. Garde  !

The documents identified on enclosed Appendix D are being released in part and are being placed in PDR folder F01A-86-373 and the LPDR. Portions of the documents are being withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Exemption (6) of the F0IA, 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(6), and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(6) of the Commission's I

l regulations. Information being withheld pursuant to Exemption 6 consists of personal information the release of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. In addition, portions of Document 3 are being withheld pursuant to Exemption (7)(A) of the F03A, 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(7)(A), and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(7)(i) of the Commission's regulat' ions for reasons noted above. .

Pursuant to 10 CFR 9.9 of the NRC's regulations, it has been determined that

the information withheld is exempt from production or disclosure, and that its production or disclosure is contrary to the public interest. The persons responsible for this denial are the undersigned and James G. Keppler, Regional Admir,istrator, Region III.

This denial may be appealed to the NRC's Executive Director for Operations within 30 days from the receipt of this letter. As provided in 10 CFR 9.11, any such appeal must be in writing, addressed to the Executive Director for Operations, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Conmission, Washington, DC 20555, and should clearly state on the envelope and in the letter that it is an " Appeal from an Initial F0IA Decision." l l

In light of this response, no further action will be taken on your '

July 16,1986, letter appealing our lack of response to your request.

I Sincerely, aA Donnie H. Grimsley, Director Division of Rules and Records Office of Administration

Dear Mr. Stello:

This is an appeal pursuant to subsection a(6) of the Freedom of Information Act as amended (5 U.S.C. 522), of the effective denial of the Commission to release documents requested on May 16, 1986, by the Government Accountability Project.

No response from your agency has been received in this matter since a May 29,1986 form letter acknowledging receipt of the request.

We expect your response to this appeal within 20 working days of your receipt so that we can determine whether to pursue this matter further in the courts.

Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Sincerely, B a A L C. A Billie Pirner Garde Director, Environmental Whistleblower Clinic
