1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated April 24,1997, and supplemented by letters dated June 6,1997, and June 27, 1997, Union Electric Company (UE) proposed changes to the Administrative Controls section of the Technical Specifications (TS) fer the Callaway Plant, Unit 1. These changes would delete the title of Senior Vice-President, Nuclear (SVPN) and replace it with Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer (VP&CNO). Although not addressed in the TS, the title of Vice President Nuclear Operations (VPNO) would be eliminated and the four managers previously reporting to the VPNO would now report to the VP&CNO. These include the Manager Callaway Plant, j
Manager Operations Support, Manager Emergency Preparedness and Organizational Support.
and Manager Nuclear Information Services. In addition and also not addressed in the TS, the j
Manager Quality Assurance, Manager Nuclear Engineering, Manager Licensing & Fuels, and i
Manager Nuclear Services that previously reported to the SVPN will also report to the VP&CNO.
2.0 EVALUATION In Section 6.0, " Administrative Controls," of the TS, the title " Senior Vice President, Nuclear" is i
changed to "Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer"in five places (Sections 6.1.2,6.2.1 c, 6.6.1 b,6.7.1 a, and 6.7.1 c). The organizational change results in the eight functional managers identified above now reporting to the VP&CNO who in tum reports to the CEO and 1
President of Union Electric. Charts showing the new organizational arrangement have been included in Chapter 13 (Figures 13.1-1,13.1-2, and 13.1-3) of Revision OL-9 of the Updated Final Safety Analaysis Report (UFSAR) submitted by letter dated May 9,1997. The Quality Assurance Manager and associated staff groups remain in the same relative arrangement as before the organizational change with the same degree of independence and access to upper management consistent with the requirements of Appendix B of 10 CFR Part 50.
