Mr. Nick C. Aquilina

Manager

Department of Energy
Nevada Operations Office

P. O. Box 98518
Las Vegas, Nevada 89193-8518

Dear Mr. Aquilina:
I am concerned by your November 1 response to ny letter of
October 5 to Harry Brown and ask that you review my request as

soon as possible.

The Subcommittee's ongoing investigation suggests that DOE's
study requested in my letter was part of the survey managed by
DOE's Nevada Operations Office and described in the "Operaticns
Plan -~ Northern Marshall Islands Radiological Survey" that was

signed by Mahion E. Gates.

I do not find it reassuring that a copy cannot be lecated.
It
would be most disconcerting to learn that your office dees not

have a copy of this study given the importance and sensitivity of
this matter.

It would raise a question abcut whether this

information has been destroyed or nislaid.
Would you therefore please:

-- immediately ascertain that the integrity of this study
has not been compromised;

-- identify the individual who prepared the study; and
-~ provide the Subcommittee with a copy of the study.
A response no later than November 30 would be very much
appreciated.
