A For sometime after the* problem, the Geotechnical group 3

was not involved in the fill placement, but at some later date, we 4

became involved, and I don't recall exactly.

Mr. Wanzek was 1

3 5

assigned as a coordinator, and his responsibility was to provide R

j 6

engineering' guidance to the onsite Geotechnical soil engineer.

21 this job, and he is supposed to be watching all these activities.

PATON: There has been some discussion between 2 E 8 8 counsel concerning some records kept by Bechtel at Ann Arbor that d:i 9 g relate to soils at the Midland site. There has been a reference o i: 10 E to some large number, for example 170,000 documents. The ctaff is = E 11 j not presently advised of the nature of those documents, and the d 12 i staff has requested that we be allowed to inspect those documents. E 13 i "'ha staff has also requested that some brief summary be provided E 14 g to let us know what kind of documents are kept by Bechtel in 7 15 j Ann Arbor with respect to the, soil matter in Midland. ? 16 g My recollection was that after Isham, Lincoln & Beale p 17 had the opportunity to look at these documents, some consideration a F.= 18 g was to be given to providing the staff an opportunity to look'at j t 19 A these documents.

-l 13 other.

100 percent of the 20,000 pound in one report was sub-x m i 14 stituted for 95 percent of the other in the other report. That is g 15 what one basis is. The other basis is that from this previous x j 16 experience, I feel that way, and we have data right now and the e ti 17 data is available to the NRC of running both types of test on the

ss 18 clay field and the data to support the statsment.
