NRC NEWS U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Office of Public Affairs Telephone: 301/415-8200 Washington, D.C. 20555-0001 E-mail: opa@nrc.gov Web Site: http://www.nrc.gov/OPA No.05-006 January 7, 2005 NRC REALIGNS OFFICE OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOR OPERATIONS Nuclear Regulatory Commission Executive Director for Operations Luis A. Reyes has realigned the Office of the Executive Director for Operations (OEDO) to better position the agency to carry out its strategic management goals.

As part of the realignment, Reyes has appointed Jacqueline E. Silber as Deputy Executive Director for Information Services and Administration. The position was established, in part, to replace the Deputy Executive Director for Management Services, now held by Patricia Norry, who is retiring.

Silber will continue as the agencys Chief Information Officer and will directly oversee that office (which will be renamed the Office of Information Services) and the Office of Administration.

Certain functions that previously reported to Norry will now report directly to Reyes. These include the Offices of Human Resources and Small Business and Civil Rights, as well as the OEDOs communications function (in coordination with the agencys Director of Communications).

This realignment reflects the high priority I intend to place on human capital initiatives, diversity management and internal and external communications in the agency, Reyes said in announcing the changes. It also allows us to assign high priority to the NRCs strategic goals in the area of management excellence.

Edward T. Baker, currently deputy director of the Office of the Chief Information Officer, will become director of the renamed Office of Information Services. Timothy F. Hagan will continue to be director of the Office of Administration.
