Randy B., Dan H., Anne P. Jeff T., et. al.,

Please see the attached "revised" remarks from the alleger's speech on Wednesday night This version is slightly different than the handout she provided on 6116/04, becase she told me that she has added as many of her ad-libbed remarks as she could remember. She has no problems with the NRC placing this Into ADAMS.

I also spoke with her about her comment on Wednesday night re: the alleged "untruths" that have been told, and are still being told, by PSEG about the corporate Input to "production vs. safety pressure" with regard to site activities. I asked her if there were any statements, or specific incidents, other than those she has already referred to us, that we should know about She didn't really have any other specific comments/incidents to tell me about, but instead provided a list of names of people we should Interview, noting that "if they tell the truth," it will shed much light on the corporate pressur rd "prod uctiorer ifter interviewing

'etTusaw il'ae ntriwd6o h 1individuals named).-Raving heard her o 07i77=77 out many of the individuals she named in prior discussions, I asked her if she really thought these pedple would admit that they were pressured by corporate to make a non-conservative decision, or that others had been. She indicated that we are the government and need to be very strong in our questioning of them. I told her that I believe we do make our best effort at getting the people we interview to be candid, but that if someone doesn't want to admit something, there is not much we can do. All we can do is look at the information gathered, and render a conclusion based on that information.

She also has some additional suggestions for enabling us to get to the "corporate pressure" issue:

he indicat two weeks while she was there, there was a video conference betweer

She didn't know if these meetings were audio or video recorded, but thif =heryth nIn thi

Jerirey eator - Ke: i-wa: l-~emarKs or June lb i-'aqe 21 r, Jeffrey i edtor - Re., Fwa: KemarKS of June 16 Page 21 were, they would provide us with invaluable information in this area. She also noted that it might be possible that we could derive information for the Board of Directors meeting minutes. She wasn't sure if we could get our hands on this documentation, but indicated that she may be able to obtain it as part of the discovery process for her lawsuit.

She also suggested that, if possible, we should try to get a hold of the first draft version of

!AT report. She indicated that, from her experience, first versions of such reports are ofter more cand icl~nd revealing than the final versions, which are always polished to take out "purple words" - as she referrred to them.

At the end of the call, she informed me that she was going to be callin his evening to ask him "if he agreed to be the scapegoat" (for the rest of PSEG managemen on thiS"lue).

As you can see from her commentary, she is still very interested in the corporate pressure issue, and proving she was correct.
