SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY TOPICAL REPORT SCE-1-A CHANGE NOTICE PAGE 1 OF 2 Change Notice Number:
37 Affected Amendment:
12 Affected Pages: 17.1-19, 17.1-50, 17.2-8, 17.2-16, 17.2-20, 17.2-64 Description of Change:
The Nuclear Oversight Division in-line review and approval of drawings and specifications is being revised to reflect the use of an audit, surveillance, and assessment program to monitor the adequacy of the design process.
Drawings and design specifications will no longer be reviewed and approved as an in-line function by the Nuclear Oversight Division. Appropriate surveillances, audits, and vertical assessments will be conducted to assure that drawings and specifications include appropriate quality assurance requirements.
Reason For Change (including basis for concluding that the change satisfies the criteria of 10CFR50, Appendix B, and the quality assurance program commitments previously accepted by the NRC):
The Nuclear Oversight Division is instituting a specialized function wherein selected design changes and systems are reviewed by a team of Nuclear Oversight Division personnel to assess the adequacy of the design, including potential impact on operations, using vertical assessment techniques.
This function will replace the in-line review function presently employed by the Nuclear Oversight Division which was limited to review of quality assurance requirements included in drawings and specifications. The organizations presently responsible for development, review, and approval of drawings and specifications are required to assure that these documents contain appropriate quality assurance requirements. The Nuclear Oversight Division will assure through appropriate surveillances and audits that process controls are maintained by the responsible organizations related to drawings and specifications to achieve compliance with regulatory requirements contained in 10CFR50, Appendix B, Criteria III, V, VI, and XVII. In addition, the new vertical assessment function will provide additional reviews of the technical adequacy of the plant design and changes thereto to ensure that the associated equipment will meet its intended safety function.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY TOPICAL REPORT SCE-1-A CHANGE NOTICE PAGE 2 OF 2 Reason For Change (Continued):
New initiatives undertaken by Southern California Edison to improve design control processes have been discussed with NRC Region V and Resident Inspectors.
It is anticipated that the new Nuclear Oversight Division focus on adequacy of technical performance will be significantly more effective than current in-line quality assurance reviews.
Additionally, the Organizational Chart, Figure 17.2-1, has been redrawn for better legibility and included for information.

17.2.3.2 (continued) stress, thermal, hydraulic, radiation, and accident analyses.
Consultants may be utilized to review and verify the design of certain items.
Where design verification cannot be adequately accomplished by the design review process, alternate calculations or qualification testing is employed. These alternate methods of design verification are required to be defined in design documentation.
Records of design reviews, and associated design documents are 5
required by internal written procedures to be maintained in the 12CN#35 SONGS CDM Center.
The SCE Nuclear Oversight Division is responsible for performing 12CN#35 periodic audits, as described in Subsection 17.2.18, of SCE departments, A-E's, and other contractors to verify effective implementation of design control requirements. These audits include verification that appropriate design review records are maintained and deviations from quality standards are controlled.
