Thursday, June 22, 2000 Pomeroy, Middleport, Ohio USEC to dose Piketo~ .plant; 1AOO workers lose jobs • ' WASHINGTON (AP) -The nati9n's only supplier of fuel for nuclear power reacton won't be allowed to quietly proceed with its plans to stop production at its . Piketon, Ohio, plant, eliminating . 1,400 jobs. Scrutiny from hostile congressional committees and at least tWo federal agencies await the U.S. Enriclunent Corp. Treasury Department lawyers, at the request of Rep.Ted Strickland, D-Ohio, and the state's two senators, are considering whether there are legal grounds to seek an injunction blocking implementa' tion ofWednesday's decision. · Energy Secretary Bill Richard- . · son accused USEC managen of making decisions that weakened the company, and said he was considering replacing USEC as the broker and reseller of recycled warhead uranium from Russia. More congressional hearings are likely into the way USEC has conducted its business and· the way the Clinton administration has monitored that business, and Strickland ·will be introducing some longshot legislation to put uranium enrichment ba,!'k in the hands of the gwernmem. ''I'm exploring every legal option I may have as a member of Congress and as an American citizen," he said. U$EC is the only part of the federal gwernment that has been spun off into a p'rivite company. It wants federal help and needs administration cooperation as it repositions itself to try to turn around its sagging finances. But the company's board defied the Clinton administration, refuS.: ing direct requests to postpone a vote to consolidate its operations at Paducah, Ky. That decision will put 1,100 or more people out of work next year; another 150 to 200 out of work in 2002; and the remaining 250 to 300 people in 2005 or early 2006. Exact figures for each layoff phase will depend on how many worken are needed to monitor pressurized equipment until it is turned over to the Energy Department, and on how many worken are needed to run a shipping sea-· tion until a replacement facility is built in Kentucky. ·Both the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in Piketon, Ohio, and its companion plant in Kenlucky are islands of well-paying industrial employment in regions with little industry . and few $40,000-a-year jobs. · A promise to keep both complexes going until 2005 was an important part of tile $1.9 billion stock'deal to privatize the uranium enrichment business. The Treasury Department and Energy Department sent urgent, blunt letters to USEC's suburban headquarters on Wednesday but did not sway the baonl. USEC said the cutback was necessary because it cannot charge civilian nuclear plants enough to cover its current costs now that the worldwide price of uranium has fallen. "With high production costs and production at only 25 percent capacity at both plants, we must consolidate," USEC President William TimbeJ;S said. • en a of MaYta!!

Norris said Gavin was chosen for the project because it is one of AEP's largest power stations, engineering and design work for the plant is largely complete, 'and SCR represents the "best tech- · nology option" for plants equipped with flue-gas desulfurization equipment,' commonly known as scrubbers. Norris said AEP has begun some preliminary site preparation. Construction is eKpected to start in July. SCR units are expected to be in operation in 2001. The project will employ 400 to 450 construction worken at its peak. SCR uses a chemical rt•action to break down nitrogen oxide present in exhaust gases released during the coal combustion process, Norris explained. Ammonia is added to flue gases, which are then channeled through a catalyst that breaks down gases into elemental nitrogen and water.

The Treasury Department and Energy Department sent urgent, blunt letters to USEC's suburban headquarters on Wednesday but did not sway the baonl. USEC said the cutback was necessary because it cannot charge civilian nuclear plants enough to cover its current costs now that the worldwide price of uranium has fallen. "With high production costs and production at only 25 percent capacity at both plants, we must consolidate," USEC President William TimbeJ;S said. • en a of MaYta!!

Soulsby reported Smith allegedly drove in and caused damage to the lawn of Heath Hill of Racine.

Norris said Gavin was chosen for the project because it is one of AEP's largest power stations, engineering and design work for the plant is largely complete, 'and SCR represents the "best tech- · nology option" for plants equipped with flue-gas desulfurization equipment,' commonly known as scrubbers. Norris said AEP has begun some preliminary site preparation. Construction is eKpected to start in July. SCR units are expected to be in operation in 2001. The project will employ 400 to 450 construction worken at its peak. SCR uses a chemical rt•action to break down nitrogen oxide present in exhaust gases released during the coal combustion process, Norris explained. Ammonia is added to flue gases, which are then channeled through a catalyst that breaks down gases into elemental nitrogen and water.

''I'm happy to have you on the record;' Rep. Pete Stark, D-Calif., said to R epublicans shortly before they advanced the bill on a party-line vote late Wednesday. "It's a political exercise on your parr;· he added, and vowed to pay for a campaign advertisement in the district of a committee Republican this fall "saying he doesn't care about seniors." The Republican whom Stark mentioned, Rep. Clay Shaw ofAorida,sat quietly a few feet away on the committee dais in the Ways and Means Committee room. "I guess he hasn't been on the positive side of a vote io six years;• Shaw said afterward."! guess it's getting to him." The Republican bill would rely on private insurance companies, aided by government subsidies·, to offer prescription drug coverage to seniors nationwide. It carries a price tag of S40 billion over. five years. WASHING.TON (AP) -The chiefS of United Airlines and .US Airways tried Wednesday to d,eflect Capitol Hill criticism of their proposed merger. Instead, they faced more tough questioning. The executives sought to address fears the $4.3 billion bid they announced last momh would stifle competition and result in high. er airfares, poorer service and fewer routes to small communities. • "This merger will create immediate and sure competition;' James Goodwin, chairrrun and chief executive of Elk Grove Village, lll.based VAL Corp., United's parent, told the Senate Commerce Committee. "We view this transaction as very consumer-friendly." Goodwin noted that 93 new domestic and imernational nonstop routes are planned, and that customers would have access through the bigger airline to a global network that would make travel more convenient. · But Committee Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., sharply questioned US AiiWays Chairman Stephen Wolf about a 1999 letter to Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater. In it, Wolf complained that United was apparently trying to target US Airways by matching the airlines' increase in service at the Washington area's Dulles lnterna- · tiona! AirpQ.rt. · "In the domestic arena, the threat to unobstructed competition continues to grow," Wolf wrote. "The unrelenting attempts of the major trunk carriers to undermine the operations and expansion of smaller carriers, both domestically and internationally, is a clear and present danger to free market competition." Wolf answered that the only way for US Airways to compete in the current market was to get "substantially bigger." "We don't want the government to control health care," Rep. Jim McCrery, R-La., said in response to one of numerous Democratic objections to the GOP proposal. "They haven't done a particularly goodjob.We want to try the private marketplace:· The Republican bill includes subsidies for low-income senior citizens that would reduce or eliminate monthly premiuins and deductibles. Co-payments also would be reduced for the Jess well-off, although never eliminated entirely. There are additional subsidies to cover catastrophic costs for aU seniors who purchase insurance, regardless of their financial wellbeing. The measure is penciled in for a floor _vote next week, an ambitious schedule given the complexity of the issue and the political jockeying under way. A tough fight is expected, with Democrats laboring to hold down defections in hopes of denying Republicans a bipartisan victory they can trumpet in their campaigns this fall. At the last minute Wednesday night, Democrats sweetened their own competing bill with $21 billion in new SJII'nding for hospitals, home health providers, medical schools and others in the regular Medicare program. The money has no direct bearing on drug insurance, but could well give some wavering Democrats a reason to oppose the GOP bill.

Instead, they faced more tough questioning. The executives sought to address fears the $4.3 billion bid they announced last momh would stifle competition and result in high. er airfares, poorer service and fewer routes to small communities. • "This merger will create immediate and sure competition;' James Goodwin, chairrrun and chief executive of Elk Grove Village, lll.based VAL Corp., United's parent, told the Senate Commerce Committee. "We view this transaction as very consumer-friendly." Goodwin noted that 93 new domestic and imernational nonstop routes are planned, and that customers would have access through the bigger airline to a global network that would make travel more convenient. · But Committee Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., sharply questioned US AiiWays Chairman Stephen Wolf about a 1999 letter to Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater. In it, Wolf complained that United was apparently trying to target US Airways by matching the airlines' increase in service at the Washington area's Dulles lnterna- · tiona! AirpQ.rt. · "In the domestic arena, the threat to unobstructed competition continues to grow," Wolf wrote. "The unrelenting attempts of the major trunk carriers to undermine the operations and expansion of smaller carriers, both domestically and internationally, is a clear and present danger to free market competition." Wolf answered that the only way for US Airways to compete in the current market was to get "substantially bigger." "We don't want the government to control health care," Rep. Jim McCrery, R-La., said in response to one of numerous Democratic objections to the GOP proposal. "They haven't done a particularly goodjob.We want to try the private marketplace:· The Republican bill includes subsidies for low-income senior citizens that would reduce or eliminate monthly premiuins and deductibles. Co-payments also would be reduced for the Jess well-off, although never eliminated entirely. There are additional subsidies to cover catastrophic costs for aU seniors who purchase insurance, regardless of their financial wellbeing. The measure is penciled in for a floor _vote next week, an ambitious schedule given the complexity of the issue and the political jockeying under way. A tough fight is expected, with Democrats laboring to hold down defections in hopes of denying Republicans a bipartisan victory they can trumpet in their campaigns this fall. At the last minute Wednesday night, Democrats sweetened their own competing bill with $21 billion in new SJII'nding for hospitals, home health providers, medical schools and others in the regular Medicare program. The money has no direct bearing on drug insurance, but could well give some wavering Democrats a reason to oppose the GOP bill. On.prescription drugs, Democrats backed an alternative for a uniform government-defined Medicare prescription drug benefit. They said repeatedly that Republicans couldn't guarantee their legislation would live up to its claim of offering all senior citizens a choice of two plans.

Atlanta'sJohn Rocker, Cincinnati's Scott Williamson and New York's John Franco all struggled with their control Wednesday night. And all three cost their teams opportunities for wins. Rocker, who has struggled with his control since returning from a suspension for making disparaging comments in a Sports ffiustrated story, sprinted in from the bullpen to the cheers of the home crowd of 44,698 in the ninth. But he left to jeers after throwing 20 balls and just 10 strikes. Rocker allowed five runs , four walks and a hit batter, his ERA swelling to 5.85 in the Braves' 8-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs. "He didn't throw well at all.The game got out ofhand;' Braves manager Bobby Cox said. " It all boils down to getting the ball over the plate." At Cincinnati, Denny Neagle turned a 4-3 lead over to the bullpen, but was victimized by a blown save for the third time this season as the Reds lost to the Colorado Rockies 6- 4. Williamson (2-4) walked Jeff Cirillo opening the eighth, threw his NL-Ieading 13th wild pitch and walked Brent Mayne with two outs. Neifi Perez singled to tie it and Bragg singled sharply up the middle. Ken Griffey Jr. dropped the ball as he tried to field it for a play at the plate. He then threw wildly to third for an error that sent Perez home. "We've had that happen four or five times in the last 10 or 12losses," Reds manager Jack McKeon said. "We've had a lot of games this year where we've had a lead and just couldn't hold it." At New York, Franco walked Kevin Jordan with the bases loaded in the ninth to allow the go-ahead run to score in the Philadelphia Phillies' 10-5 victory over the New York Mets. Franco allowed four runs, two hits and walked two in.one-third of an inning. ''I'm kind of disgusted with myself;' Franco said. " I made the pitch I wanted to throw. I just didn't get away with it."

Atlanta'sJohn Rocker, Cincinnati's Scott Williamson and New York's John Franco all struggled with their control Wednesday night. And all three cost their teams opportunities for wins. Rocker, who has struggled with his control since returning from a suspension for making disparaging comments in a Sports ffiustrated story, sprinted in from the bullpen to the cheers of the home crowd of 44,698 in the ninth. But he left to jeers after throwing 20 balls and just 10 strikes. Rocker allowed five runs , four walks and a hit batter, his ERA swelling to 5.85 in the Braves' 8-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs. "He didn't throw well at all.The game got out ofhand;' Braves manager Bobby Cox said. " It all boils down to getting the ball over the plate." At Cincinnati, Denny Neagle turned a 4-3 lead over to the bullpen, but was victimized by a blown save for the third time this season as the Reds lost to the Colorado Rockies 6- 4. Williamson (2-4) walked Jeff Cirillo opening the eighth, threw his NL-Ieading 13th wild pitch and walked Brent Mayne with two outs. Neifi Perez singled to tie it and Bragg singled sharply up the middle. Ken Griffey Jr. dropped the ball as he tried to field it for a play at the plate. He then threw wildly to third for an error that sent Perez home. "We've had that happen four or five times in the last 10 or 12losses," Reds manager Jack McKeon said. "We've had a lot of games this year where we've had a lead and just couldn't hold it." At New York, Franco walked Kevin Jordan with the bases loaded in the ninth to allow the go-ahead run to score in the Philadelphia Phillies' 10-5 victory over the New York Mets. Franco allowed four runs, two hits and walked two in.one-third of an inning. ''I'm kind of disgusted with myself;' Franco said. " I made the pitch I wanted to throw. I just didn't get away with it." In 1Sther NL games, Florida edged Milwaukee 5-4; Pittsburgh defeated Montreal 8-3: San Francisco beat St. Louis 4-1: Los Angeles edged Houston 7-6; and Arizona defeated San Diego 11-8.

Well, I'm not in Jove with my defense in this deal; it's just that it supplied me with column material. Late in April, I played in a duplicate at Stuart, Fla., with Carol Rostad, from New York 'City. We had a reasonable game, with the most culpable error occurring in this deal. How should the play and defense proceed in four hearts? After some thought, I led the diamond six . (We were using third- and fifth-highest leads, which are popular in the touma· ment world.) Declarer won Carol's 10 with her ace, unblocked the king-queen of. spades, and continued with the heart nine. I went in with the queen and continued with a low diamond to Carol' s jack. She switc hed to a club. but declarer rose with the ace, ruffed her last diamond in the dummy, discarded her club loser on the spade ace, and conceded one more trick to my heart ace -contract made.

Well, I'm not in Jove with my defense in this deal; it's just that it supplied me with column material. Late in April, I played in a duplicate at Stuart, Fla., with Carol Rostad, from New York 'City. We had a reasonable game, with the most culpable error occurring in this deal. How should the play and defense proceed in four hearts? After some thought, I led the diamond six . (We were using third- and fifth-highest leads, which are popular in the touma· ment world.) Declarer won Carol's 10 with her ace, unblocked the king-queen of. spades, and continued with the heart nine. I went in with the queen and continued with a low diamond to Carol' s jack. She switc hed to a club. but declarer rose with the ace, ruffed her last diamond in the dummy, discarded her club loser on the spade ace, and conceded one more trick to my heart ace -contract made. If I had ducked the heart nine at trick four, in theory declarer has had it. However, when she eKits with a diamond. I must go in with the king and continue with the ace and queen of hearts! Still, my main crime was not counting declarer's tricks. If, after winning with the heart queen, I cash the heart ace and exit with my l<ist heart, true, declarer wins with dummy's seven and cashes the spade ace, but that is only hef ninth trick.

The image began to fade in 1995 when he finished second, lpsing to newcomer Jeff Gordon, who suddenly was the man to beat at age 24. In 1996, the seemingly invincible Earnhardt crashed in Talladega, Ala., breaking 'his sternum and c'oUarbone. By the end of 1997, the once- feared driver was locked in a 59-race winless streak. Worse, he was no longer considered a threat to win. "I never thought I was finished;' Earnhardt said. "For a while, I was hurting, and thi~gs just weren't going the way we Wanted." . The resurgence began with Earnhardt w inning the 1998 season-opening Daytona 500 - the one big r.tce win that had eluded him the previous 19 yean. "That meant a lot to us;' Earnhardt said. "We had something to build on." That victory came in Larry McReynolds' first r.tce as Earn- hardt's crew chief. McReynolds, considered one of the best in the business, had moved to Richard Childress Racing over the winter, forming what appeared to be a super team with Earnhardt. The magic that Earnhardt had found with previous crew chiefs Doug Richert, Kirk Shelmerdine and Andy Petree was missing. Childress, Earnhardt's car owner since 1984, recognized it. Midway through 1998, Childress switched McReynolds to the car of Mike Skinner and moved unheralded Kevin Hamlin to Earnhardt's shop. "His thinking was that Skinner needed someone with Larry's experience and I'm not too sure what he thought I was going to bring to Earnhardt," Hamlin said. "But whatever it was, we were going to Start it inunediately." The chemistry was.instant. In their 69 races together, Earnhardt has won four times - nising his career total to 75 - with 19 top-6ves and 41 top-lOs. That includes one win and 12 top-1 Os in 15 .starts this season. "It's been a tremendous success all the way around;' Childress said. "Dale and Kevin have really Petty sqnglasses. "When things are supposed to happen," he said, "they happen."

They have the same demeanor and undentanding of what they want and need from a race car to be successful." Earnhardt gives the unassuming Hamlin, in his seventh year as a crew chief, considerable credit for the No. 3's renewed success. "We have a good understanding of each other," Earnhardt said. "It reminds me of the connection Kirk and I had. "If I'm thinking about going one way or the other with the car, he's thinking that same direc-' tion. You don't always have that and we've seen many teams that never find it." · ' Earnhardt believes the best is yet to come. Meanwhile, he has to keep things going in the right direction. "You struggle at times through your career;• he said. "The ideal situation, what you work for, is to get in that car on Sunday and go race.
