Reason _ Lor _ Change llaving'the General Manager, Nuclear Oversight and the General Manager.

Plant Support report to the Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer instead of the Vice President Nuclear increases the independence of Nuclear Oversight and Plant Support.

{

Criterion 1 of Appendix B requires that persons and organizations performing QA functions report to a management level so that they have sufficient _ organizational freedom including from cost and schedule.

The-i reporting of the General Manager, Nuclear oversight to the Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer meets this requirement.

Plant Support consists of Nuclear Security, Nuclear Training, Material-t Services, Cost Control, and Administrative Services. There are no requirements in Appendix B concerning the independence of these l

organizationst however, Technical Specification 6.2.1.d requires that-individuals who train the operating ataff shall.have aufficient organizational freedom to ensure their independence from operating pressures. This change continues to meet this Technical Specification.

This is not a reduction in commitment.
