Personnel at the Niagara Mohawk Power Corp. are accused by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) of making false statements and violating NRC requirements. The utility denies the allegations and protests the punitive actions taken by the NRC to modify licensing and to impose fines of $225,000. The central issue involves a letter written by Niagara Mohawk outlining plans for shielding and the use of a portable gamma survey instrument which the NRC challenges. A review of the communications between both parties quotes pertinent statements made as the controversy developed. (DCK)
