Discussion:

The Maine Yankee Chairman of the Board, Mr. David Flanagan, announced    
yesterday, that Entergy, Inc. of New Orleans, La. had signed a Memorandum
of Understanding with Maine Yankee to provide plant management services  
for the station. The agreement was to commence immediately with Mr.      
Charles Frizzle to remain as President and Chief Executive Officer for   
approximately thirty days until a formal contract is agreed upon by the  
parties. Mr. Frizzle had submitted his resignation on December 20, 1996  
(Morning Report 1-96-0110). Before a contract could be signed, Entergy   
was to complete a plant evaluation and negotiate final terms and         
conditions.                                                              
                                                                         
Mr. Flanagan also announced that Mr. Jerry Yelverton of Entergy, Inc.    
would become the Chief Nuclear Officer reporting directly to the Maine   
Yankee Board of Directors. The contract to be signed was initially       
described as being for approximately one year with a provision for future
extension. Mr. Flanagan also stated that Entergy would also assess the   
current officers and management at Maine Yankee in the next three months 
to determine if additional changes are necessary.
