Subject: CHIEF NUCLEAR OFFICER NAMED FOR MILLSTONE                       

Discussion:

On October 14, 1998, Northeast Nuclear Energy Company announced the      
appointment of Leon J. Olivier as Senior Vice President & Chief Nuclear  
Officer for Millstone Station, effective October 18, 1998.  Mr. Olivier  
was most recently the Senior Vice President - Nuclear for the Boston     
Edison Company, where he had overall responsibility for the Nuclear      
Organization, including the operation of Pilgrim Station.  As the new    
Millstone CNO, he will be responsible for the decommissioning efforts for
Unit 1, the recovery and request for NRC approval for the restart of Unit
2, and the continued operation of Unit 3, which resumed critical         
operations in July, 1998 after an extended shutdown of over two-years    
duration.                                                                
                                                                         
Northeast Utilities Nuclear President & CEO Bruce Kenyon had been filling
the position of Millstone CNO since December 1, 1997 upon the departure  
of Neil S. Carns.  At that time, Mr. Kenyon announced that the executive 
search for a new Chief Nuclear Officer would begin immediately.  This    
process culminated in the appointment of Mr. Olivier, who had been in the
service of Boston Edison for 29 years.  In addition to his recent        
executive position with BECo, he is currently serving as the chairman for
the Assistance & Events Industry Review Group for the Institute of       
Nuclear Power Operations (INPO).
