Dr. Pratt thinks that Liktanur II is a vessel subject to the rules and regulations of the BNL and that as Party Chief he is in charge of Liktanur II as "the charterer". This is simply not the case. BNL is utilizing, as a tenant, a U.S. Government furnished facility (Liktanur II). The DOE (PASO) is in charge of Liktanur. Dr. Pratt's activities are (or should be) limited to the medical program, per se. The tactics employed by Dr. Pratt in waging his vendetta against C. E. Otterman, Harry Brown, and Liktanur II have created personnel problems for PASO which will be difficult to overcome. The General Manager, Holmes & Narver, PTD has encountered similar problems. Simply put, I will have difficulty finding either a senior PASO or H&N representative willing to accompany BNL on future medical surveys (if there are to be any). Many of the problems that we have encountered with Dr. Pratt could have been avoided with clear policy direction, guidance and assignment of responsibility by the office of the ASEV. Unless we can obtain such. wd policy guidance, we can expect to have more of the above in the future. Page 2 of 13 ENCLOSURE I
