O ATTACHMENT 1 TO: All Personnel FROM: Charles E. Monty, President and Chief Executive Officer John B. Randazza, Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer MAINE YANKEE'S COMMITMENT TO QUALITY From its beginning, Maine Yankee has been committed to quality.

This commitment is reflected in the engineering conservatism, extra safety features , and quality construction bui.it into the station. It is also reflected in its long and excellent operating record: fourteen years of consistently high power production with no measurable environmental impact, never a threat to public safety, and no permanently disabling empl oyee injury.

At Maine Yankee, quality is everyone's responsibility--from the manager who should consistently exercise sound judgement to the production worker who should perform all assigned tasks with skill and professionalism. A conmitment to quality work must also be shared by the suppliers of equipment, material, and services to the Company and by contractors and tradesmen who work at the plant.

Over the last few years, we have continued to take measures to advance the quality of our operation. Plant modifications have been made to improve operational reliability and safety; special performance tests have been conducted to verify the reliability of safety related systems ; and our quality assurance and training programs have been substantially expanded. Most important of all, Maine Yankee people have made a greater personal commitment to improving quality in everything they do.

The formal Maine Yankee Quality Assurance Program identifies all the regulatory quality requirements to which the Company must adhere, and the Quality Assurance Department monitors operational activities to assure those requirements are met. However, no quality program and no amount of monitoring can assure a high level of quality. This can only be achieved with the personal dedication and commitment of every employee to doing every job carefully, skillfully, and professionally.

Maine Yankee's commitment to quality improvement must continue to be vigorously pursued if our Company is to gain and hold public confidence and acceptance necessary to its survival.

The Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) has as its overall goal: THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE. That too must be Maine Yankee's overall goal.

The cooperation and support of all personnel is necessary if we are to achieve'the desired objectives of ever better performance, safer operation, and greater public confidence.
