.f E g 431 PARK AVENUs
. 8A Kino or enussia.pannsytvAnia iseos MAY.13 1985 Docket No. 50-322 Mr. Richard M. Kessel Chairman and Executive Director
- - New York State Consumer Protection Board Room 1725
! 250 Broadway New York, NY 10007
Dear Mr. Kessel:
! I have been asked to respond to your March 12, 1985 letter to the Helear i
RegulatB'ry Commissions' Secretary, Samuel J. Chilk. Since issuance of 4
-construction permit in 1973 for the Shoreham facility, this office has been conducting inspections and investigations relative to design, manufacturing, construction and management systems affecting the construction and safe opera-tion _of the facility. Over the years, numerous problems have been. identified
, by both the NRC and the mandated utility audit program. Consequently, many i problems have been identified and we have required that deficiencies be fixed and appropriate remedial measures taken. The record at Shoreham over the years
- i. shows that problems have been properly addressed and required corrective actions were taken. This type of situation is not uncommon in the construction of a 1- complex facility such as a nuclear power plant. Your letter forwarded a letter from Ms. Patricia Bower that contained allegations regarding design and construction flaws and other issues apparently provided to her by instrumen-
, tation and control technicians at the Long Island Lighting Company's Shoreham
- Nuclear Power Station. I believe your letter raised four concerns that I will respond to directly.
. The first concern is that NRC should ' consider in the Shoreham hearings before
. the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board '(ASLB) the information contained in Ms. Bower's letter. As you noted, Ms. Bower's letter contains a number of
, allegations of which we previously were aware. We informed the Shoreham ASLB
, on August 16, 1983 of those' allegations. Ms. Bower's recent letter also i .contains new allegations. The Region I staff has recently conducted an inspec-tion related to these allegations. A report of our inspection findings should
- be available in the near future and will be forwarded to you and Ms. Power.
Based on the nature of these findings, appropriate steps will be taken.
The second concern is that the allegations appear to seriously affect the
- -prospects for safe operation of the Shoreham plant. The NRC follows up on each allegation received to determine if it could affect the safe operation of a plant.

O ENCLOSURE
SUMMARY
OF REGION I ACTIVITIES RELATED TO ALLEGATIONS OF MS. PATRICIA B0WER RELATED TO SHOREHAM On January 14, 1983, NRC Region I received allegations from Ms. Patricia Bower in a letter dated January 3,1983, relative to design and construction quality assurance concerns related to the. Shoreham facility. Based on a preliminary review by Region I, the concerns exrressed in the January 3 letter were developed into 38 separate allegations. Most, if not all, of these allegations were lacking in detail and in need of further specificity before a determina-tion could be made relative to the appropriate inspection effort, if any, required to resolve these concerns. As a result, the staff acknowledged Ms.
Bower's submittal in a letter to her dated February 1, 1983, advising her of our need for additional information to allow appropriate followup activity.
In a February 6,1983 letter to Region I, Ms. Bower transmitted an update of allegations -with additional information. After these concerns were discussed with Ms. Bower by telephone and in person on a number of occasions in February and March 1983, an investigator and an engineer from the NRC went to Long Island on March 10, 1983, to interview her with the objective of formulating an inspection plan. A copy of the transcript from the March 10 meeting was provided to Ms. Bower by lettar dated April 1, 1983.
During this interview, it became apparent that Ms. Bower had no first-hand information relative to her concerns. Further, she would not disclose her sources. She did protide a March 9,1983 document which contained a listing of I 37 allegations received from a steam fitter. This document later was formally l provided to Region I as an attachment to an April 21, 1983 letter from Ms. Bower, which also included an allegation (diagram) related to reactor building floor drains which had been informally handed to two different NRC representatives at a Congressional hearing on April 18, 1983, in Seldon, New York. Subsequently,. an individual (Mr. John W. Huber) with more specific information did voluntarily contact Region I and, based on his detailed comments obtained during an interview in July 1983, a detailed inspection plan was developed. Follow-up inspections were documented in a series of reports over a two year period, reflecting the numerous inspections that were conducted to assess the extent to which, if any, they had on plant safety. Although Mr.
Huber's concerns were sufficiently detailed, the nature of the problems iden-tified were not adversely affecting critical safety systems. However, such a parspective may not'be readily obtained and it is,only after extensive investi-gative effort that we reached this conc 1 Jsion. Details of events associated with the follow-up to Mr. Huber's concerns are described below:
On June 14, 1983, Region I received a handwritten note from Mr. John W. Huber, dated June 9,1983, requesting a meeting and stating that he was one of the individuals (a steam fitter) who provided Ms. Bower with the 37 allegations contained in the the March 9 document. Based on telephone calls in mid June 1983, a meeting date of July 13 was established. During telephone discussions on June 23 and June 24, 1983, Mr. Huber provided an additional allegation related to fuel handling.

- 2 i
On July 13, 1983, Mr. Huber, accompanied by his attorney, Robert Gottlieb, Esq., met with the NRC senior resident inspector, an NRC supervisor and the Region I Counsel, in order to provide Mr. Huber an opportunity to more fully i express and clarify his concerns to the NRC and to give the Region I technical i
staff a chance to obtain more specific information upon which to base an i inspection. Two more allegations (in addition to his original 37 plus the one
- relt.ted to fuel handling) were identified during this meeting.
j As a result of the interview with Mr. Huber on July 13, 1983, the allegations !
initially raised by Ms. Bower, which lacked the requisite specificity to initiate meaningful field inspections, were described in more detail.
With regard to Ms. Bower's claim that the NRC dismissed 70 worker allegations she provided, they were investigated during the period August 1983 through February 1984, and the results of those inspections were provided to the various licensing Boards hearing the Shoreham case, as well as all the parties to that proceeding. The results of the inspections are contained in seven 4 separate public reports; six addressed the allegation of a former Shoreham i steam fitter, Mr. John Huber; and one report addressed Ms. Bower's separate concerns. Regarding Mr. Huber's allegations, the staff identified 40 distinct allegations from the July 13, 1983 interview with him, which were subsequently found to be unsubstantiated as violations of NRC regulations or as public
- health or safety problems. Copies of all six of the inspection reports were provided to Mr. Huber's attorney, as agreed to in the interview with him.
Copies of those reports are also available in the NRC's Local Public Document.
Room, which is located at the Wading River High School on Route 25A near the i Shoreham site.
All of Ms. Bower's technical concerns were addressed by an inspection conducted by the Reoion I office in February 1984. The results of that inspection were documented in Report No. 50-322/84-04, published on May 1, 1984. The staff concluded that there was no safety substance to any of he. alleged conditions.
While Mr. Huber had not requested anonymity, Ms. Bower did request that her name not be revealed so as not to compromise her sources. Although this office initially honored 'her request, her inputs indicated that she had subsequently
, openly discussed her concerns, and we informed the Shoreham Licensing Board of the status of these issues on August 16, 1983. Region I has had no further contact with Ms. Bower in almost two years, even though Inspection No. 50-322/
84-04 was made public (as well as provided to all parties involved in the Shoreham hearings) almost one year ago. ,
Regarding the new items identified by Ms. Bower to you (namely, the four items in the second paragraph of the first page and the instrumentation allegations
' on the enclosed sheet), on-site inspections were conducted in April 1985, and the results are currently being evaluated. A report of these inspection findings will be issued.
With respect to Ms. Bower's reference to the statements made by two former Quality Assurance inspectors at Shoreham before the Suffolk County Legislature,
- NRC Region I representatives have been in contact with these individuals. The 4

I
, 3 NRC staff was initially made aware of their concerns through articles published in Long Island newspapers in January 1985. After initial attempts to interview with Mr. George Henry, the person cited in the first newspaper article, were unsuccessful, a preliminary inspection was performed based solely on the state-ments made in the article. Mr. Henry was a former QC inspector for two years at Shoreham. Subsequently, interviews were conducted on February 19 and 27, 1985. The report of the on-site inspection, No. 50-322/85-10, was issued on February 19, 1985, and the preliminary findings were that, based on the available information in the newspaper and upon the NRC inspection, none of 3tr.
i Henry's allegations could be substantiated as violations or safety problems.
l The transcripts of the interviews are being evaluated by other regional staff; i however, based on the reviews performed to-date, no new information has been identified hat would affect the preliminary findings.
While Mr. Henry described problems or events which did occur, inspection records indicate that these matters were previously identified by LILCo in the normal conduct of their quality assurance program. Records indicate that these issues were properly evaluated by LILCo Startup and Engineering personnel, and
, received acceptable ~ technical disposition. Further, none of the technical issues described were found to represent a serious operational or design problem. The other individual, Mr. Ronald Stanchfield, a former employee (but not a QC inspector) of two subcontractors at Shoreham for a period of approxi-
- mately four months total, was interviewed on February 4, 1985, by the staff.
Transcripts of these interviews have been evaluated by Region I managemee., and an inspection of those concerns resulting from that review was conducted during April 1985. A report of these inspection findings will be issued. ,
