ENS 4271717 July 2006 19:29:00Part 70 App A (C)Media Inquiry Regarding Bwxt Reorganization

THIS IS NOT A NEW REPORT. This event report was originally withheld from public release under the NRC's policy for protecting sensitive unclassified information. The NRC has reevaluated this policy and is now making this event report available to the public with suitable redactions.

This concurrent report is being made to the NRC as a result of a 'media inquiry only' statements that were released to the following organizations: WDBJ 7, WSET 13, and The News & Advance. All of these entities are local news agencies in the Central Virginia area. The press release that was provided is attached. The media inquiry is the result of a recent press release concerning BWXT's reorganization. Licensee Press Release Text: (Lynchburg, Va) - BWX Technologies, Inc. (BWXT) recently announced the consolidation of its two nuclear manufacturing facilities, the Nuclear Products Division (NPD, Lynchburg, Va.) and the Nuclear Equipment Division (NED, Barberton, Ohio and Mount Vernon, Ind.), into one organization named the Nuclear Operations Division (NOD). The consolidation is designed to facilitate stronger efficiencies in management and overhead functions in executing the work BWXT performs in manufacturing nuclear components for the U.S. Department of Energy. The restructuring also positions BWXT to be more cost competitive in emerging nuclear markets. As a result of the consolidation, BWXT will reduce its salaried workforce at NPD, NED and BWXT Services, Inc, by approximately 100 people during the months of August and September 2006. To help mitigate any need for an involuntary reduction, a Voluntary Reduction in Force (VRIF) program, which includes an enhanced severance package, has been offered to all salaried employees at the three sites. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
