A discussion of the proposed Technical Specifications changes is provided in Attachment 1.

Until these changes can be implemented as amendments to the operating licenses, station management will continue to use their previous and new titles to ensure that Technical Specifications responsibilities are implemented as specified. To ensure nuclear personnel are aware of the management titles and the temporary dual title situation, a directive has been issued to explain the interim title situation.

The proposed Technical Specifications changes have been reviewed and approved by the Station Nuclear Safety and Operating Committee and the Management Safety Review Committee. It has been determined that the proposed Technical Specifications changes do not involve an unreviewed safety question as defined in 10 CFR 50.59 or create a significant hazards co_nsideration as defined in 10 CFR 50.92.

The proposed changes will revise station management titles to reflect the new positions approved by the Virginia Power Board of Directors on February 20, 1998. The Station Manager's title will be changed to Site Vice President and the Assistant Station Manager Operations and Maintenance (O&M) and the Assistant Station Manager Nuclear Safety and Licensing (NS&L) positions will be changed to Manager - Station Operations and Maintenance (O&M) and Manager -

Station Safety and Licensing {S&L), respectively.

The overall responsibility for nuclear safety decisions is not being changed. There are no changes to the operation of any plant system or its design as a result of these changes. Therefore, the proposed changes to the Administrative Section of the Technical Specifications do not create an unreviewed safety question.

In addition, the Technical Specifications Administrative Controls Section delineates responsibilities for operation and review of the nuclear plant operations.

Currently the senior management positions responsible for plant operations and review at the nuclear stations are identified in the Technical Specifications and the UFSARs as the Station Manager and Assistant Manager of Operations and Maintenance and Assistant Manager Nuclear Safety and Licensing.

Discussion At the Virginia Power Board of Directors meeting on February 20, 1998, organizational changes were approved for nuclear power plant senior management. Specifically the Station Manager's position will be changed to Site Vice President and the Assistant Station Managers' positions will be changed to Manager - Station Operations and Maintenance and Manager - Station Safety and Licensing.

In each instance in the Technical Specifications where the Station Manager and the Assistant Station Managers positions are identified, the Station Manager's title is being changed to Site Vice President and the Assistant Station Managers' titles are being changed to Manager-Station Operation and Maintenance and Manager-Station Safety and Licensing. The following sections of the Technical Specifications are affected by the title changes:
