Dear Mr. Orser:

This letter is in response to a request from Ms. Donna Alexander of your staff for statistics on allegations received by the NRC concerning Brunswick, Sheron Harris, and H.B. Robinson. The attached tables provide a breakdown of the allegations concerning the three sites by source category, as well as a comparison to allegations recieved at other operating sites for calendar years 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998.

You may notice changes from statistics previously reported. The software used to count allegations has been revised to avoid "double counting" allegations that are transferred from one NRC organization to another. Additionally, the data is audited for accuracy and corrections are made as appropriate.

If either you or Ms. Alexander have any questions concerning the data, you can reach me at (301) 415-8529.

Sincerely, /s/

Edward T. Baker, III Agency Allegation Advisor Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
