 WPPSS Staff 



* Includes contractor staff, except in 1989 

 **1993 - As of February 28, 1993 



* WPPSS staffing levels for WNP-1 and 3 have decreased drastically since 

 FY 1980. In FY 1987, approximately 575 staff were charged to projects other 

 than WNP-2. As of February 1993, all but approximately 190 staff were being 

 to charged to WNP-2. 



Verifiable industry staffing data is difficult to obtain. However, in our opinion, 

 WNP-2 staffing levels are higher overall than the industry average for Single 

 Plant Nuclear Utilities on a FTE basis. They are within the range of other 

 Single Plant Nuclear Utilities, though on the high side of that range. FTE 

 staffing in Operations, Maintenance, Training, and the Engineering disciplines 

 is about average and the Administration and Operations Support disciplines are 

 higher than the industry average. Industry data is difficult to analyze for 

 administrative and support functions. To address the staffing level, the 

 WPPSS commissioned an independent organizational efficiency study in 1991. 

 The results indicated that 1 10-160 WNP-2 positions could be eliminated due to 

 efficiency improvements. The WPPSS has committed to reducing total 

 organization staffing by 160 positions by FY 1997.
