[I] The OE Program provides the process for assessing OE from industry sources for potential impact to the continued safe and reliable operation of Entergy nuclear units. When conditions are identified as having an impact, Condition Reports are generated to provide for evaluations and corrective action plans.
(a) If at any time during the screening or evaluation process, an adverse condition as defined in EN-LI-I 02 or equivalent station corrective action procedures is identified, then a Condition Report shatl be initiated for all Entergy units affected and/or corporate.
(b) Documents that are typically screened and tracked by the OE Group are the following:
e INPO SEE-IN Documents e NRC Information Notices e Vendor Bulletins received by OE personnel e 10 CFR Part 21 reports e INPO Daily download of industry OE In addition to the above listed documents, the OE Group may also screen other documents for impact. These documents include:

[2] Screening and Dissemination (a) Incoming OE items are screened by the site OE coordinators for impact to their respective units with one of three possible outcomes (see Attachment 9. Ifor all screening and evaluation codes and sub-codes):
0 Screened as code A- Evaluation Required 0 Screened as code B- Useful for Site Awareness e Screened as code C- Not Applicable (b) Documents received by the OE coordinators relating to industry OE are screened for potential impact. This is accomplished by each site screening the documents and then by a means of an inter-site conference call; e Documents received that are identified as copyrighted or proprietary may be added to the OE database in compliance with the corporate policy on Copyright, Trademark, and Patent Infringement.
(c) The criteria used by Entergy personnel to determine potential impact in the screening process includes the following:
0 Similar equipment or components are used at the station (or in the warehouse), although not necessarily in the same application.
0 Similar design exists, if design was determined to be a main contributor to the issue.
0 Current Organizational and or Proarammatic practices that could increase the chances of a similar problem.
e Similar conditions, such as aquatic life, sea grass, severe weather, or extreme temperatures, could be present.
a A similar event has already been experienced.
0 Similar management expectations, personnel behaviors, processes, or programs have been observed in the station.
0 Reactivity Management Events.
e Equipment and Plant Reliability Events.
NUCLEAR NONQUALITY RELATED EN-OE-100 REV. 2 E&--
=s- MANAGEMENT MANUAL lNFORMATlONAL USE PAGE 15 OF 25 (d) The screening of incoming OE documents is performed using the codes found in Attachment 9.1. Screening codes are recorded for all screened documents, including those screened as not applicable, for tracking purposes.
Documents that may have no impact, (or may have only a small probability of impact) but are considered of informational value to selected plant staff, should be assigned code B - Useful for Site Awareness. The associated document should be sent to the appropriate departmental Point of Contact (POC) for review or saved as Entergy Just-In-Time information.
Documents that indicate the presence of an Entergy adverse condition or require formal evaluations for a proper impact assessment are classified as code A - Evaluation Required. The sub-code assigned per Attachment 9.1 determines the course of action.
[3] Sharing Internal OE (a) Entergy nuclear stations may use similar equipment, materials, and processes. Because of this, special attention must be given to sharing OE with the other Entergy stations, as well as incorporating their lessons learned. To accomplish this, each sites CNA Manager, Condition Review Group (CRG) and/or OE Coordinator should consider the daily condition reports to determine if the other Entergy sites would benefit from the information. The OE Coordinator(s) should include the selected CRs in the OE screening.
(b) All root cause reports should be screened in the normal OE process.
[4] Evaluation and Analysis NOTE Unless separate site-specific Condition Reports are initiated for every Entergy nuclear site (or corporate CR), an OPWOEN condition report or equivalent tracking report may also be needed for the remaining sites to determine impact.
(a) If a document is determined to have an impact and requires an evaluation, then it is classified as code A- Evaluation Required. The document requires the initiation of a site-specific condition report, a corporate condition report, or an OPWOEN condition report (or equivalent tracking report) depending on the assigned sub-code. The priority sub-codes and suggested due
m Entw- NUCLEAR MANAGEMENT NONQUALITY RELATED EN-OE-100 PAGE 16 OF 25 REV. 2 MANUAL lNFORMAnONALUSE c I I I I dates for OE documents that require an evaluation are determined in accordance with Attachment 9.1.
(b) The individual performing the OPWOEN (or equivalent tracking report) evaluation is responsible for:
0 Determining impact or potential impact of the event.
0 Assuring the adequacy of scope for the evaluation.
0 Initiation of a site-specific CR, when OPWOEN or equivalent tracking reports are determined to have an impact on the site, and corrective actions are required.
(c) OPX/OEN condition reports (or equivalent tracking reports) will be reviewed by the Manager-OE or designee prior to closure.
(d) OE evaluations concerning site equipment that may require inclusion into technical manuals should be processed in accordance with appropriate station procedures.
[5] Responses To SOERS & SERs (a) The Site OE Coordinator should review the SOER & SERs for:
0 Recommendationof a site, regional, or fleet response.
e Review of the recommendations.
0 Other departments needed for recommendation reviews.
0 Ensure initiation of a CR with recommended actions.
(b) SOERs & SERs contain recommendations that are required/recommended to be implemented in a timely manner.
When the OE coordinators receive an SOER/SERs for screening, an evaluation is required and site-specific or corporate condition reports are required to be initiated in accordance with EN-LI-102 or equivalent station corrective action procedures by the OE Coordinator if not already initiated.
(c) An individual, typically a manager or director, should be assigned oversight for coordinating the response to the SOER for either a site or the region. The manager that is assigned the condition report by the CRG is considered the SOER sponsor. The SOER sponsor is also responsible for review and final approval of the SOER evaluation. In addition, the sponsor should submit the final evaluation to the site Onsite Safety Review Committee, Corrective Action Review Board or equivalent site management group for comment and review.
NUCLEAR NON-QUALITY RELATED EN-OE-I00 REV. 2 MANAGEMENT MANUAL lNFORMAnONAL USE PAGE 1 7 0 F 2 5 The SOER sponsor should assign a team lead and hold a team meeting within 14 days.
A preliminary review and brief summary of proposed actions should be documented on the condition report to aid in subsequent department assignments. It is recommended that the complete SOER document be attached electronically to the condition report in PCRS. CA's to address the initial recommendations should be assigned within seven days of the initial team meeting by the team leader.
SOER condition report due date assignments should reflect that yellow tab SOER responses are required to be evaluated within 150 days, and red tab SOER responses are required to be evaluated within 90 days.
An action should be assigned in the initiating condition reports to the lead SOER Manager as appropriate, to perform a final review of the initial response to the SOER within 14 days of the 90 or 150 day time allotment.
[6] Reports and Tracking (a) Each site OE group should prepare a monthly OE status report.
The report is submitted to the Manager, OE,or Senior Project Manager who determines the attributes of the report.
(b) Each site will maintain an SOER database to track the respective site responses to each recommendationassociated with applicable SOERs. The OE Coordinators are custodians of the index, but the respective departments assigned the recommended actions are responsible for the accuracy of the content.
[7] SOER Updates and Effectiveness Reviews (a) The site OE Coordinators are responsible for ensuring that the OE SOER data base is updated with the site-specific responses to the SOER recommendations.
- 1. SOER Data Base updates should be provided on a 2 year period
- 2. All SOER recommendations on the Selected List should have completed effectiveness reviews on a period not to exceed 3 years.
aEnt,qm NUCLEAR MANAGEMENT NON-QUALITY RELATED EN-OE-I00 REV. 2 PAGE 1 8 0 F 2 5 MANUAL INFORMATIONAL USE (b) The site OE Coordinators will assist in developing a periodic effectiveness review with the Recommendation of selected SOERs by maintaining schedule for those reviews. This review should be documented in the corrective action process (PCRS).
The Attribute of a continual and effective SOER response should be demonstrated by:
- 1. Station events related to the SOERs have been reduced -
no or few events trending to zero.
- 2. SOER lessons learned are included where appropriate in both initial and continuing Training programs.
- 4. SOER sponsors conduct regular and independent evaluations on the programs assigned to SOER responses(FME, RP, etc,)
(c) Effectiveness reviews for SOERs should be performed by the SOER Recommendation owner and includeldocumentthe following:
- 1. Station Coordinators and SOER Recommendation owners should conduct a periodic analysis and reviews of the Stations C A W Quarterly Trend report to evaluate emerging trends or issues relative to SOERs. The results should be documented in PCRS as either a learning organization document or a condition report.
- 2. Review SOER actions implemented since fast SOER data base update. Check if a stations Condition Reports have been written relative to the SOER recommendations.
- 3. No repeat findings from internal Entergy audits or assessments relative to SOER recommendations.
- 4. Information provided for SOER data base periodically updated, and is valid (procedure steps are checked & verified, etc.)

[8] 10 CFR Part 21 Reports
- a. 10CFR Part 21 reports received by an Entergy nuclear plant require the initiation of a site-specific or corporate condition report upon receipt, when it can be quickly determined that the Part 21 report is directly applicable to a particular Entergy plant. For example, an Entergy plant being on the customer mailing list for the Part 21 report received directly from the vendor in question may help determine this. OPX/OEN condition reports or equivalent tracking reports may be generated to determine the impact for the remaining Entergy units if impact at the other sites is still in question.
- b. Any other generic document or report that is generated under the auspices of IOCFR Part 21, and is obtained by an Entergy nuclear plant (NRC download, sister-unit receipt, etc.) may require the initiation of an OPWOEN condition report or equivalent tracking report after screening. (An OPWOEN condition report or equivalent tracking report is considered the preferred course of action, if site impact cannot be determined relatively quick and accurately). If necessary, the OPWOEN evaluator may assign a corrective action for Part 21 Applicability Review to the responsible Manager. The CA response should detail the Part 21s material history relating to its procurement, issue to pfant personnel, and whether or not the material remains in inventory (including support documentation). If the Part 21 being addressed impacts plant equipment and/or requires remedial action by site personnel, then the OPWOEN condition report or equivalent tracking report is closed, and a site-specific condition report is then required to document the plant impact. Part 21 OPX/OEN corrective actions should be assigned a 30 day due date, with the impact review completed by the OE coordinators within 60 days
[9] Effectiveness Reviews and Self-Assessments
- a. Each Entergy site performs self-assessments on a routine basis, not to exceed a two-year interval, to determine if station personnel are using OE information effectively. These self-assessments may be broken into severaf more targeted assessments versus an assessment which evaluates the entire program. The entire program should be evaluated on a 2 year basis. A team selected per the guidance of EN-LI-104 Assessment Process should perform the review using the guidance found in the procedure. Refer to Attachment 9.2.

Entergy shall report any defects of Delta Protection Mururoa Enclosed Suits in a timely manner to the United States nuclear industry through our operating experience process as required by reference 2.0[161.
OE reports should be made only for event information that would prove beneficial to personnel at other stations. (See Attachment 9.2) Examples would include items such as those that:
0 Are important to nuclear, public, or personnel safety 0 Are important to generation capabilities 0 Are important generic implications 0 Reveal lessons learned from root cause investigations that that would be beneficial for application to other stations.
NOTE INPO has established guidelines to make industry notifications within 50 days of the event date.
- b. A preliminary OE report could be posted to the Nuclear Network as soon as feasible following the decision to share the information.
The site OE coordinator contacts the group responsible for the associated condition report disposition, and drafts the release document with their assistance. The draft release should then be reviewed by the OE Manager or Senior Project Manager and then by the site CNA Manager. The OE Coordinator shall lastly obtain final approval from the GMPO or designee. The OE report is then submitted to the Nuclear Network forum.
Updates to initial release information, such as facts revealed from completed root cause investigations should be provided as the information becomes available.

m Er&yp~ NUCLEAR MANAGEMENT MANUAL NONQUALITY RELATED EN-OE-100 REV. 2 INFORMATlONAL USE PAGE 240F25 ATTACHMENT 9.1 OE SCREENING AND PRIORITY CODES Sheet 1 of 1 The following codes are used to identify the screening classification of specific OE documents as they are entered into the OE database.
A. Evaluation Required.
I.Priority 1: Adverse Condition. This priority is assigned to a document that has a potential plant impact with a high probability of occurrence and a high potential for adverse consequences.
Evaluation documents in this category require the initiation of site-specific or corporate condition reports, in accordance with EN-LI-102 or equivalent station corrective action procedure.
- 2. Priority 2: Potential Impact. This priority is assigned to documents that have potential plant impact, but an evaluation is required to determine if an adverse condition exists.
Evaluations in this category require the initiation of an OE Condition Report (OPWOEN) or equivalent tracking report. To ensure a timely determination of plant impact, OPWOEN CRs should be assigned due dates not to exceed 90 days. Items that are determined to be potentially significant or sensitive can be fast tracked or red flagged and require responses to the OPWOEN CR in a time frame that is determined by the significance of the issue identified. Typically a Red Flagged OE item is responded to within two working days and a Fast Track OE item is responded to within thirty days. Extensions past the 90 day due date require the approvat of the Manager-OE. If an OPWOEN CR determines that the OE document (in question) represents an adverse condition for the site, then a priority 1 evaluation is initiated, and the OPWOEN CR is closed - referencing the resulting condition report.
B. Useful for Site Awareness.
- 1. Typically sent to Point-of-Contacts (POCs)
- 2. Saved into OE Just-in-Time folder C. Not Applicable.
I.Contains No Useful Information (Includes updates, retractions, and repeat reports with no useful info.)
- 2. No Cause Identified.
- 3. Different Reactor Type, Manufacturer, or Plant Specific Issue. (Includes instances of components or processes not used or not found at referenced plant)
- 4. Previously Evaluated or Covered by Another Document.
I I NUCLEAR NON-QUALITY RELATED EN-OE-400 REV. 2 E~&J-- MANAGEMENT MANUAL INFORMATIONAL USE PAGE 250F25 I 1 I I I ATTACHMENT9.2 OE RELEASE GUIDANCE Sheet 1 of 1 Items considered for sharing OE messages include; 0 important to nuclear, public, and personnel safety
- events that could lead to serious degradation of operating safety margin
- events that affect reactivity management, core reactivity, core cooling, or decay heat removal
- significant personnel injuries or life-threatening situations
- events that exceed, or have a strong potential to exceed, administrative limits because of:
- fission product barrier breaches
- uncontrolled release of radioactive material
- exposures significantly greater than planned
- adverse reactor core or fuel performance events. Include evidence of fuel leakage (including minor leaks), core performance prediction shortfalls, malfunctions of core components or rod control systems, or deficiencies found in the core design process. This notification should occur as soon as practical, consistent with SEE-IN program reporting guidelines. The reporting criteria should be conservative in that events are reported even if causal analysis is incomplete or if the significance of an event initially appears minimal 0 important to generation capability
- transients, including reactor scrams, main turbine trips, feedwater control problems, and other conditions
- equipment malfunctions or human errors
- major equipment damage
-frequent or extended outages events with important generic implications
- deficiencies in areas such as design, analysis, testing, or procedures with potentially generic implications
- component failures with generic implications
- events involving discovery of information significantly different from what was assumed to be an industry norm
- unique solutions to known industry problems that could benefit other utilities
- transients that required extraordinary actions to terminate even though actual consequences were minor 0 events for which a comprehensive root cause investigation was performed, and lessons learned would be beneficial for you to know about if the event had occurred at another station If it is determined that a root cause will not be shared with the industry, then document the explanation in the associated condition report.
