t JERSEY CENTRAL POWER & LIGHT COMPANY OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION (DOCKET NO. 50-219 )

PROVISIONAL OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-16 Applicant hereby requests the Commission to change Appendix A to the above captioned license as follows:

1. Sections to be changed:

Section 6 of Appendix A and Section 5 of Appendix B

2. Extent of Changes:

This Technical Specification change delineates the new management organization that has been developed by combining the management and technical staff f rom within the GPU Service Corporation, Metropolitan Edison Company and Jersey Central Power & Light to form the GPU Nuclear Group.

3. Changes requested:

The Iicensee requests that the attached Section 6 of Appendix A replace the present pages 6-1 through 6-11 and 6-28 of Section 6 of Appendix A and the attached pages 5-1, 5-2, and 5-3 of Sectir;n 5 of Appendix B replace the present pages 5-1, 5-2, and 5-3 of Section 5 of Appendix B.

4. Discussion:

This Technical Specification Change Request is the result of the formation of the GPU Nuclear Group. This group is being formed by combining the technical and management resources of Jersey Central Power and Light (JCP&L),

Metropolitan Edison Company (Met-Ed), and GPU Service Corporation Generations Divisions into a single organizational entity.

This organization change is desirable for more effective management control and will strengthen the overall management and provide greatly increased technical resources for the operation of Oyster Creek.

The primary objective of the GPU Nuclear Group is to operate and maintain the plant safely and in accordance with all laws, NRC regulations, Technical Specifications and established procedures.

This group was formed to take advantage of the weal th of nuclear experience represented by management and technical staff from within the GPU Service Corporation, Met-Ed, and JCP&L. This realignment increased the number of professional, technical and managerial resources available to support the operation of the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station.

Several positions which were previously indicated on an organization chart may no longer appear because of the reassignment of that job function to another organization or due to the level of detail shown on the figures.

Positions that fall in this category are listed below along with where this position or function is covered:

2

t f

1. The Supervisor Health Physics is now titled Radiological Controls Manager and reports to the Director Radiological &

Environmental Control s Division within the GPU Nuclear Group. This position is still located at the station.

2. Site Security is still located at the Station.

This f unction now reports to the Administration Division within the GPU Nuclear Group.

3. Site Training is still located at the Station.

This function now reports to the Nuclear Assurance Division within the GPU Nuclear Group.

4. Site Quality Assurance is still located at the Station. This function reports to the Nuclear Assurance Division within the GPU Nuclear Group.

5. The Management Control Supervisor has been deleted from F igure 6.2.2 al though the position still exists, because he has been replaced on the PORC by the Safety Review Manager.

6. The functions of Supervisor Station I & E Maintenance and Suoervisor Station Mechanical Maintenance are still located at the station and report to the Manager Maintenance.

7. The functions of Generation Engineering, and Nuclear Saf ety & L icensing report to the Tecnnical Functions Division. Although these are GPU Nuclear Support Groups there will be satellite groups at the station.

The level of staf fing for each the functional groups listed above as well as the other groups at the station will not be reduced by this reorganization. In some cases the level of support has been increased to ret lect management 8s desire for increased emphasis and support in certain key areas.

Additionally, the Nuclear Generation Group will provide greater advantages of centralization of nuclear expertise including:

, 1. The ability to focus greater expertise on any area on short notice.

2. Increased proficiency under emergency conditions due to pre-existing working relationships.

3. Personnel policies and procedures appropriate to nuclear activities.
