2 DL EA 96-177 Mr. Louis F. Storz Senior Vice President-Nuclear Operations Public Service Electric and Gas Company P.O. Box 236 Hancocks Bridge, NJ 08038

Dear Mr. Storz,

This will acknowledge receipt of your letter dated January 10, 1997 and your payment of $80,000 for the civil penalty proposed by NRC in a letter dated December 11, 1996. In your response, you do not dispute the Notice of Violation and acknowledge that the root cause of the violations was, in part, imprudence on the part of the former manager of Nuclear Safety Review. The NRC's expectation is that the penalty in this case will serve to remind Public Service Electric and Gas Company and its employees that actions to ensure that employees feel free to raise safety concerns without fear of retaliation must be continuous and lasting.

In addition, your response describes actions taken to ensure that your employees feel free to raise safety issues without fear of harassment, intimidation, or discrimination. These actions included a self-assessment and two surveys that provided evidence of progress in this area. We will continue to monitor your efforts to maintain a safety conscious work environment at your facility and we will be interested in the results of any future self-assessments or surveys of your work environment.

Your corrective actions will be examined during future inspections.

Sincerely, Original Sitnc! Cy J:mes IJeberm:n James Lieberman, Director Office of Enforcement Docket No. 50-410 License No. NPF-69 cc: H. Miller, RI DISTRIBUTION:
