(1) Envirocare's employment contract non-disclosure covenant threatens the financial well being of employees who want to provide information regarding Envirocare operations, and (2) current and former Envirocare employees fear for their lives and lives of their families. NRDC states that it is apparent from sworn affidavits, compiled in the State of Utah Legislative Auditor General Investigation of Envirocare, that current and former employees of Envirocare fear for their lives and for the lives of their families. NRDC further states that Envirocare has required employees to enter into an employment agreement with onerous provisions that impose significant monetary penalties for disclosing safety-related information. NRDC, furthermore, asserts that such threatening practices constitute a violation of Section 211 of the ERA, 10 CFR Secs. 19.16, 19.20, and 40.7. The NRC has evaluated these matters and found no basis to take the requested actions.
