kw f 3pg 30 mac MEMORANDUM FOR: -Leonard I. Cobb, Chief Safeguards and Materials Programs Branch Division of Ocality Assurance, Vendor and Tecnnical Training Center Programs Office of Inspection and Enforcement FROM:
J. Nelson Grace, Regional Administrator
SUBJECT:
RESPONSE TO CONGRESSMAN MARKEY'S REQUEST This is in response to your memorandum on the same subject dated January 24, 1986, which requested a summary of the cualifications of certain inspectors in Region II. The requested information is in the Enclosure which was sent to you by IBM 5520 on January 28, 1986.
The persons listed are those who might inspect health and safety areas'at fuel facilities, including Section Chiefs. Obviously, since we were provided only 2.6 FTE plus a portion of the Resident Inspector's time for this, these individuals are not fully dedicated to fuel facility inspection activity.
