Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. W. P. Haass, A. Vietti-Cook,

C. Early, and G. L. Madsen during the period May 5-8, 1986, regarding the TUEC

programs established to identify and investigate safety concerns of workers at

the Comanche Peak plant site, and to the discussion of our findings with

Mr. W. G. Counsil, and other members of your staff on May 8,1986.

Areas examined during the inspection in'cluded the applicant's policies,

procedures, and implementation of the Comanche Peak site Ombudsman and SAFETEAM

programs. These programs were set up to receive, evaluate, and resolve concerns

arising during plant design and construction which might not otherwise come to

the attention of TUEC or to the attention of the NRC. Because these programs

fulfill an important function, we decided to evaluate their effectiveness even

though these programs are not specifically required by NRC regulations. The

inspecticn consisted of selective examination of procedures and representative

records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspectors. The

inspection findings are documented in the enclosed inspection report.

During the August 26-29, 1985 NRC inspection, some areas for improvement to the

SAFETEAM program were identified. As a result, TUEC evaluated each item and by

letter dated May 14, 1986, from W. G. Counsil to Eric H. Johnson, a formal

response was provided.

Within the scope of this inspection, no violations or deviations were identified.

Should you have any questions concerning this inspecticn, we will be pleased to

discuss them with you.

Sincerely,

g 3,9 staned GV
