1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated May 10, 1988, as superceded by letter dated May 26, 1988, Alabama Power Company ( APCo) submitted a. request for changes to the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2 Technical Specificaticns.
Tne Amendments revise management titles shown in Technical Specifications, Section 6, Administrative Controls.
The title of Senior Vice President is i
replaced with Vice President-Nuclear.
i 2.0 EVALUATION AND SAFETY
SUMMARY
The following is a brief description and evaluation of the changes proposed by the licensee in a letter dated May 26, 1988, after discussions with the NRC staff:
Technical Specification Sections 6.1.2, 6.2.1.c, 6.2.3.4, 6.5.2.2, 6.5.2.8, 6.5.2.9, 6.5.2.10, 6.6.1, and 6.7.1 would cnange the reference of Senior Vice President to the new title of Vice President-Nutlear.
The requested changes are acceptable since the position of Vice President-Nuclear is a sufficiently nigh corporate level position to implement the responsibilities designated within each of these sections.
Technical Specification Sections 6.5.1.8 and 6.5.3.1.d would be cnanged to delete the requirement that certain items be forwarded to the Senior Vice President (now Vice President-Nuclear) in addition to the Chairman of the Nuclear Operations Review Board.
These changes are acceptable since the Vice President-Nuclear is now the Chairman of the Nuclear Operations Review Board and has assumed the duties previously designated to the Senior Vice President.
Also, we consider the Vice President-Nuclear to be a sufficiently nigh corporate level position, as discussed above.
