Mr. McChain indicates he worked for a period of time as a welding inspector, had access to security controlled areas including an operating reactor control room, and is knowledgeable of falsified weld records.
Rrgion V, along with the Region V OI Field Office, is coordinating with the FBI, OIE, NMSS end Regions 1, 3 and 4 regarding the above.

The timing of his interview will be coordinated with the FBI, McChain's attorney, and the Colorado Department of Correctness.
The NRC team will consist of Mr. Phil Joukoff (OI Investigator, Region V), Mr. Ron Lloyd (OIE Welding and NDE Expertise) and Mr. John Davidson (NMSS Security-Access Clearance Expertise). NMSS and OIE will maintain lead responsibility with regard to follow-up on any id:ntified safety issues in their respective areas after proper coordination with 01 and the FBI.
The issue is currently receiving news media interest in the western states. The Headquarter's Public Affairs Office is aware of this issue. OI has initiated an investigation of this matter.
