REVISION OF PREVIOUS MORNING REPORT. In MR H-97-0054, issued May 15,     
1997, the vendor name was mistakenly given as Enertech.  The correct     
vendor name is ASCO.  The corrected report should read as follows:       
                                                                         
    NEW ISSUE. ASCO reports that 13 out of 36 scram solenoid             
    valves exhibited excessive air leakage at Oyster Creek.              
    An investigation by the utility, General Electric, and               
    ASCO concluded that the leakage was the result of hardening          
    of the core disc in the scram solenoid pilot valve pilot             
    head. Subsequent investigation by ASCO also indicated that           
    some of the Oyster Creek valves may have been shipped with           
    core discs fabricated from commercial grade Buna-N (Nitrile)         
    material rather than the required nuclear grade fluorocarbon         
    material.

Subject: TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY (TVA) REORGANIZATION                 

Discussion:

On June 3, 1997, Oliver D. Kingsley, TVA President and Chief Nuclear     
Officer, announced a TVA reorganization which realigned several TVA's    
corporate functions.  This reorganization came about as a result of a TVA
Corporate Function Review led by Ike Zerinque.  Nuclear Licensing and the
Chief Engineer responsibilities were added to Jack Bailey's, position as 
Vice President of Engineering and Technical Services.  Ike Zerinque, TVA 
Senior Vice President of Nuclear Operations, will direct the operating   
sites, Bellefonte, Nuclear Assurance and a new Process Methods           
organization, which will be headed up by Robert Adney, the former Vice   
President, Sequoyah.  Another change is that Operations Support functions
will report to Components and Reliability or to the new Methods teams.   
                                                                         
All staffing decisions were not finalized.  Among the announced changes  
were:                                                                    
                                                                         
Jon Rupert will become the Chief Engineer, reporting to Jack Bailey.     
Chris Burton will replace Jon Rupert as Engineering and Support Manager  
at Sequoyah.                                                             
                                                                         
Masoud Bajestani, the former BFN Plant Manager, will replace Robert Adney
as the Sequoyah Site Vice President.                                     
                                                                         
Karl Singer, the former Browns Ferry Maintenance and Modifications       
Manager, has been named Browns Ferry Plant Manager.
