Dear Chairman Zech:

I am writing to express my grave concern with the safety of the South Texas Nuclear Plant (STNP) and to request that the Nuclear Regulatory Conmi s s i on (NRC) conduct a

special investigation of the safety of the STNP before the NRC licenses the plant.

I understand that over 400 allegations regarding the safety of the STNP have been made to the Government Accountability Project (GAP).

In turn, GAP reported these allegations to the NRC and the builder of the STNP, Bechtel.

However, when the NRC investigated these allegations it examined only 60 of the allegations and spent only four days at the plant.

The safety allegations raised are serious and merit more extensive study.

The NRC should investigate these allegations in detail before proceeding to license the plant.

Moreover, allegations that inspection reports were falsifed and that Bechtel employees were discouraged from reporting possible safety violations must be investigated before the NRC can rely on the builder's documentation regarding safety.

I urge the NRC to conduct a

full investigation of the allegations regarding safety reported by the GAP and to delay licensing the STNP until the investigation has been completed and all safety concerns addressed.
