| | |
| | ==Dear Ms. Fowler:== |
| | |
| | ibis is in further response to your letter dated January 15, 1986, in which you requested, pursuant, to the Freedom of Information Act (F0IA), all documents related to the NRC investigation into the complaints of Susan Register, Leslie Price, and James B. Register regarding alleged illegal and improper procedures and practices at the Vogtle plant located in Waynesboro, Georgia. |
| | The documents listed on the enclosed Appendix D are records compiled for law enforcement purposes and are being withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Exemption (7)(A) of the F0IA (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(7)(A)) and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(7)(i) of the Commission's regulations. Disclosure of the information would interfere with an ongoing enforcement proceeding and could allow those being inves igated to learn the scope, direction, and focus of investigatory efforts. That know-ledge could possibly allow them to take action to shield potential wrongdoing or a violation of NRC requirements from investigators. |
| | Pursuant to 10 CFR 9.15 of the Commission'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 person responsible for this denial is Mr. Ben B. Hayes, Director, Office of Investigations. |
| | This denial may be appealed to the Secretary of the Commission within 30 days from the receipt of this letter. Any such appeal must be in writing, addressed to the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 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 This completes action on your request. Also, in light of our responses of l March 28, 1986, May 2, 1986, and this date, no further action will be taken on , |
| | your letter of March 5,1986, appealing our lack of response to this F0IA ' |

| | ==Dear FOIA Officer:== |
| | |
| | n Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA, 5 U.S.C. |
| | 552 as amended), the Georgia office of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) requests: copies of any and all NRC records and information, including, but not limited to: notes, letters, memoranda, drafts, minutes, diaries, logs, calendars, tapes, transcripts, summaries, interview reports, procedures, instructions, engineering analyses, drawings, files, graphs, charts, maps, photographs, agreements, handwritten notes, studies, data sheets, notebooks, books, telephone messages, computations, interim and/or final reports, status reports, and any and all other records relevant to and/or generated in U., connection with the NRC's investigation into the Complaints of Susan Register, Leslie Price and James B. Register regarding illegal and improper procedures and practices at Georgia Power Company's Nuclear Plant Vogtle in Wa'ynesboro, Georgia. (See attached letters from NRC's Bruno Uryc for reference.) This request includes, but is not limited to, any and all NRC records and information regarding Region II Insp.ector Bruno Uryc's initial cont'ct a and follow-up with Susan Register and Leslie Price in January of 1985. |
| | Because the ACLU is a non-profit organization established to protect the civil liberties guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, we believe it is appropriate for you to waive copying and search charges, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 522(a)(4)(a). |

| | For any documents or portions that you deny due to a specific |
| | . FOIA exemption, please provide an index itemizing and describing the documents or portions of documents withheld. The index should provide a detailed justification of your grounds for claiming each exemption, explaining why each exemption is relevant to the document or portion of the document withheld. |

% ,,, .+ JUL 11 1986 Docket Nos. 50-424/425 Ms. Lauri Fowler, Esquire Georgia ACLU Suite 220 - Grant Building IN RESPONSE REFER 44 Broad Street, NW TO F01A-86-43 AND Atlanta, GA 30303 F01A-86-A-31
Dear Ms. Fowler:
ibis is in further response to your letter dated January 15, 1986, in which you requested, pursuant, to the Freedom of Information Act (F0IA), all documents related to the NRC investigation into the complaints of Susan Register, Leslie Price, and James B. Register regarding alleged illegal and improper procedures and practices at the Vogtle plant located in Waynesboro, Georgia.
The documents listed on the enclosed Appendix D are records compiled for law enforcement purposes and are being withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Exemption (7)(A) of the F0IA (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(7)(A)) and 10 CFR 9.5(a)(7)(i) of the Commission's regulations. Disclosure of the information would interfere with an ongoing enforcement proceeding and could allow those being inves igated to learn the scope, direction, and focus of investigatory efforts. That know-ledge could possibly allow them to take action to shield potential wrongdoing or a violation of NRC requirements from investigators.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 9.15 of the Commission'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 person responsible for this denial is Mr. Ben B. Hayes, Director, Office of Investigations.
This denial may be appealed to the Secretary of the Commission within 30 days from the receipt of this letter. Any such appeal must be in writing, addressed to the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 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 This completes action on your request. Also, in light of our responses of l March 28, 1986, May 2, 1986, and this date, no further action will be taken on ,
your letter of March 5,1986, appealing our lack of response to this F0IA '
request. )

This request includes, but is not limited to, any and all NRC records and information regarding Region II Insp.ector Bruno Uryc's initial cont'ct a and follow-up with Susan Register and Leslie Price in January of 1985.
