SITE MANAGER & PLANT MANAGER CLEARLY DOMitlANT PLAYERS IN NEW TEAM o

PRESIDENT & CEO RESIGNED IN FEBRUARY - REPLACEMENT UNKNOWL o

NEW LICENSEE MANAGEMENT'S CHALLENGE IS TO PREVENT " STEAMER" ATTITUDE FROM RETURNING II, SALP FUNCTIONAL ARE65 Pl. ANT OPERATIONS PERFORMANCE GOOD e

CONTROL RDOM ACCESS AND DECORUM GENERALLY GOOD DURING PLANT RESTART e

SHlf T 1URNOVERS STRUCTURED. COMPREHENSIVE o

USE OF VERBAL COMMUNICATIONS AND REPEAT BACKS GOOD BUT NOT CONSISTENTLY APPLIED e

PROCEDURAL ADHERENCE & WILLINGNESS TO STOP TO CORRECT PROCEDURAL DEFICIENCIES EVIDENT e

POCKETS OF RESISTANCE EXIST IN:
