Subject:

NRC Whistleblower Policy John:

I have a specific request and ask that you forward it to che Commission. The request is as follows:

The proposed NRC Whistleblower policy has been in a draft stage for at least the past year. I understand it is about to be issued later this month. If you remember, we submitted comments on the proposed policy on behalf of NNSN on April 30, 1995 and as of today we have not had any response to the issues addressed in this letter.

We formally request that this policy not be issues until after my meeting with the Chairman on April 9, 1996. We also believe that NNSN should have the opportunity to review this document prior to its final issuance. I hope the Commissiom realizes that.the comments from individuals mEst impacted. by. this, policy _must be

' serl_ously considsrEd'.__The previous Chairman clearly stated that theseleopie~are "the eyes and ears" of the NRC and the continued l suppression of these people will have a severe impact on nuclear l safety.

Whitout these people we never would have identified such issues as the deficient refueling practices-at Millstone, the Thermo Lag problems, Rosemount transmitters, BWR and PWR level problems and dozens of l other significant safety issues.

The issuance of the draft _ policy will assure th_a_t__these.peop ~le will never again come forward to identify safety issues. _

Let me know if you are not able to forward this to the Commission l

and I will write a personal letter to them.
