MEMORANDUM OPINION
HALTOM, Senior District Judge.
The above-entitled civil action wherein Plaintiffs Vernon Kirby and Jamie Kirby [wife] seek to recover damages against the Defendant Tennessee Valley Authority ["TVA"] based on Plaintiff Vernon Kirby's June 25, 1992 fall on the premises of TVA's Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant ["Browns Ferry"] in Limestone County, Alabama at a time when he was an employee of Stone & Webster Engineering Corporation, Inc. ["Stone & Webster"] performing work for his employer on a TVA project in the ordinary course of that employment [Compl. Counts I-XII] is before the Court upon TVA's Rule 12(b)(6), Fed.R.Civ.P., motion to dismiss incorporated in its Answer to Plaintiffs' complaint [Answer, first defense].
Counts I-XI, inclusive, of the complaint are asserted solely by Plaintiff Vernon Kirby. Count XII of the complaint is brought solely by Plaintiff Jamie Kirby, wife of Vernon Kirby, for loss of consortium and is premised upon the same fault theory of liability asserted herein by her husband against TVA.
In support of its 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss Plaintiffs' complaint in the above-entitled civil action TVA submits brief and argument *579 citing State of Alabama statutory authority that it can be held liable in this case for Plaintiff Vernon Kirby's alleged injuries and for Plaintiff Jamie Kirby's Count XII claim for loss of consortium only for willful conduct, which is not alleged by Plaintiffs in their complaint herein. Thus, argues TVA, the Plaintiffs' complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.
For the reasons hereinafter set out this United States District Court agrees with TVA's stated position.

COURT'S ANALYSIS OF PLAINTIFFS' COMPLAINT
It clearly appears from Plaintiffs' complaint in the above-entitled civil action that their claims for relief against TVA are based of necessity upon allegations that TVA had or assumed duties to employees of Stone & Webster working at TVA's Browns Ferry nuclear facility to provide such Stone & Webster employees various occupational safety and health services [making safety inspections, providing safety training, providing safety equipment, providing safety procedures and warning of safety hazards]. The complaint alleges "... that TVA negligently and/or wantonly discharged [its] responsibilities with respect to those duties" [Counts I-XII ¶¶ 2-3]. TVA strenuously argues in brief in support of its 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss Plaintiffs' claims for relief that Plaintiffs wholly ignore that under applicable Alabama law[1] a governmental agency providing occupational safety and health and services to employees of another can only be held liable for willful conduct.


*588 APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ALABAMA WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION STATUTE

As a matter of Federal policy and statutory law, the provisions of the Alabama Workmen's Compensation Act are fully applicable to employees of Stone & Webster performing work in the TVA premises designated as Brown Ferry. The applicable Federal statute, 40 U.S.C. § 290 (1988), specifically provides for the application of state workmen's compensation laws:
to all lands and premises ... and to all projects, buildings, constructions, improvements and property belonging to the United States of America, which is within the exterior boundaries of any State, in the same way and to the same extent as if said premises were under the exclusive jurisdiction of the State within whose exterior boundaries such place may be.
See also Stacey v. United States, 270 F.Supp. 71, 75 (E.D.La.1967) ("The Louisiana Workmen's Compensation statute is applicable to federal properties. 40 U.S.C. § 290."). Browns Ferry is, of course, such property. Under the TVA Act, 16 U.S.C. § 831c(h) (1988), title to all real estate acquired by TVA, whether by condemnation or purchase, must "be taken in the name of the United States of America, and thereupon all such real estate shall be entrusted to the Corporation as the agent of the United States to accomplish the purposes of this chapter." See United States ex rel. TVA v. Pressnell, 328 F.2d 580, 581-82 (6th Cir.1964).
§ 25-5-11, Code of Alabama 1975, as amended, provides in pertinent part:
In the injury or death for which compensation is payable under Articles 3 or 4 of this chapter was caused under circumstances also creating a legal liability for damages on the part of any party other than the employer, whether or not the party is subject to this chapter, the employee, or his or her dependents in case of death, may proceed against the employer to recover compensation under this chapter or may agree with the employer upon the compensation payable under this chapter, and at the same time, may bring an action against the other party to recover damages for the injury or death, and the amount of the damages shall be ascertained and determined without regard to this chapter. If a party, other than the employer ... is a governmental agency providing occupational safety and health services ... the injured employee, or his or her dependents in the case of death, may bring an action against ... the governmental agency ... only for willful conduct which results in or proximately causes the injury or death ... (emphasis supplied).
§ 25-5-53, Code of Alabama 1975, as amended (1992), provides:
[I]mmunity from civil liability for all causes of action except those based upon willful conduct shall also extend ... to a governmental agency providing occupational safety and health services.... (emphasis supplied).

HOLDING
Without question the Defendant TVA is a government agency. 16 U.S.C. § 831r [declaring TVA to be "an instrumentality and agency of the Government of the United States"]. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals recognized that TVA is a federally owned corporation that acts as an agency or instrumentality of the United States in Springer v. Bryant, 897 F.2d 1085, 1089 (11th Cir.1990).
A reasonable construction of the allegations of the Plaintiffs' complaint in the above-entitled civil action is that at the time and place in question, that is on June 25, 1992 at TVA's Browns Ferry Nuclear Power facility in Limestone County, Alabama where Plaintiff Vernon Kirby was working and was injured while he was an employee of Stone & Webster performing work for his employer, Defendant TVA was a governmental agency then and there and prior thereto providing [according to Plaintiffs' complaint] occupational safety and health services to Stone & Webster employees, including the Plaintiff Vernon Kirby.[2] And this Court now so holds *589 and further holds for the reasons hereinabove stated that under applicable statutory law[3] that TVA can be held liable in this case only for willful conduct, which is not alleged in Plaintiffs' complaint. Thus the complaint in the above-entitled civil action and each count thereof fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.
Accordingly, the 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss which this Court treats and considers as being directed to Plaintiffs' complaint as a whole and to Counts I-XII, inclusive, separately and severally, is due to be granted with respect to the complaint as a whole and to each count thereof[4] and the above-entitled civil action is thereupon due to be dismissed without prejudice, with leave granted Plaintiffs to file within fifteen [15] consecutive calendar days from the entry date of the Order which will be contemporaneously entered herein their Amended Complaint in the Office of the Clerk of this Court making the requisite willful conduct allegations, if they so elect, failing which this case will be promptly dismissed with prejudice by this Court by entry of separate order.[5]
NOTES
[1]  State law governs the elements of a cause of action in tort brought against TVA under the "sue and be sued" clause of the TVA Act (16 U.S.C. § 831c(b) (1988)). See, e.g., Wayne v. TVA, 730 F.2d 392, 400 (5th Cir.1984), cert. denied, 469 U.S. 1159, 105 S.Ct. 908, 83 L.Ed.2d 922 (1985); Smith v. TVA, 699 F.2d 1043, 1045 (11th Cir.1983); Kentucky Agric. Energy Corp. v. Bowling Green Mun. Utils. Bd., 735 F.Supp. 226, 228 (W.D.Ky.1989).
[2]  Able counsel for Plaintiffs argues in brief opposing TVA's 12(b)(6) motion that TVA is not in the business of providing "occupational safety and health services" and was created for the primary purpose of promoting [improving] navigation and controlling floods. While TVA was admittedly not created by Congress for the principal purpose of providing occupational safety and health services, there is indeed no reason why it cannot provide occupational safety and health services not only to its own employees but also to the employees of independent contractors engaged in performing contract work for TVA on TVA owned property. As a matter of fact Plaintiffs' own complaint alleges that it did so in the civil action now before the Court.
[3]  In arriving at the legislative intent in enacting the statute regarding the liability of a party other than the employer for an employee's injuries, as codified in § 25-5-11, Code of Alabama 1975, as amended, every part of the statute as disclosed by its context and spirit will be given consideration. Harris v. Louisville & N.R.R., 237 Ala. 366, 186 So. 771 (1939). There appear to be no reported cases construing the pertinent portions of §§ 25-5-11 and 25-5-53, Ala.Code, as amended, ante, pp. 22-23, relied upon by TVA in its brief and argument submitted in support of its Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss in this case. This United States District Court has therefore interpreted these Alabama statutes to mean exactly what they say in applying their highlighted [emphasized] portions to the allegations of Plaintiffs' complaint.
[4]  All fictitious party defendants in this case were dismissed by this Court by Order entered herein on August 20, 1993. Moreover, this Order struck from Plaintiffs complaint [case caption and body] all references, descriptive and otherwise, as to fictitious party defendants. Count VIII of Plaintiffs' complaint demands judgment against the "fictitious defendants" only and clearly states no claim for relief against TVA for that reason alone.
[5]  TVA has not raised the issue of whether the Plaintiff wife can viably assert a claim for relief in the above-entitled civil action for loss of consortium. Thus, this Court makes no ruling at this time with respect to this particular issue.
