Mr. Bynum:

l l

l This will acknowledge receipt of your letter date, May 1,1998. Your letter indicates an 1

appreciation and awareness of the importance of compliance with NRC requirements, including those which address the prohibition of discrimination against employees who raise safety concerns to licensee management and to the NRC. It is the NRC's expectation that licensees, and other employers subject to NRC authority, will maintain safety-conscious work environments in which employees can raise such concerns without fear of retaliation. The responsibility, for maintaining safety-conscious work environments, rests with licensees, and with individuals such as yourself. The NRC has confidence that, in the future, you will comply j

with NRC Employee Protection requirements.

Sincerely, W

^
