SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY TOPICAL REPORT SCE-1-A CHANGE NOTICE Change Notice Number:
16 Affected Amendment:
9 Affected Pages:
17.2-43, 17.2-44, 17.2-45, 17.2-46 Description of Change:
(1) Rework/reject dispositions for plant equipment are normally documented and controlled by a work order document in lieu of a Nonconformance Report. Otherwise, program controls for handling of nonconforming materials, parts or components are governed by the same requirements.
(2) Added requirements for control of "conditional use" of items for station operations (Section 17.2.15.2.1) similar to those used for Engineering and Construction Projects (Section 17.2.15.2.2).
Reason for Change (including basis for concluding that the change satisfies the criteria of 10CFR5O, Appendix B, and the quality assurance program commitments previously accepted by the NRC):
(1) Rework/reject dispositions have in the past been identified by a Nonconformance Report and implemented by a work order document. The work order document system controls the work and assures that nonconforming items are identified, segregated (where possible),
dispositioned and reinspected and that all activities are documented. Use of the work order document for rework/reject disposition in lieu of a Nonconformance Report provides a system of controls which is consistent with Criterion XV of 10CFR5O, Appendix B.
(2) Provisions for control of items pending final disposition are being added to allow conditional use of certain items prior to completion of the nonconformance disposition provided the safety functions of the system are not adversely affected. Use of the item is controlled and identified consistent with the requirements of Criteria XIV and XV of 10CFR50, Appendix B.
Change does X does not reduce commitments previously accepted by the NRC.

17.2.15 NONCONFORMING MATERIALS, PARTS OR COMPONENTS 17.2.15.1 Scope This subsection derscribes the measures utilized by SCE to control materials, parts, or components that do not conform to established requirements.
17.2.15.2 Nonconforming Materials, Parts or Components The measures used to control nonconforming Safety-Related items are described by written procedures.
These procedures are pre pared and implemented by cognizant SCE organizations delegated the work of controlling nonconformances.
The SCE Quality Assurance Organization conducts periodic audits to assure proper implementation of these procedures and effectiveness of the nonconformance controls.
Deviations pertaining to a characteristic of a material, component, system or structure, from those specified in the design documents are treated as nonconformances.
Procedures for processing and controlling nonconforming items contain the following requirements:
o Measures to identify the nonconforming item including
'7 criteria for when.to issue a Nonconformance Report (NCR).
o Measures to document the nonconforming item, including cause and corrective action.
o Measures to segregate the nonconforming item.
o Method to review and disposition the nonconforming item, including approval authority.
o Method of notification to the affected organizations.
o Method for evaluating deviations to determine if
'7 reportable under the requirements of 10CFRSO.55(e),
- CN#6 or 10CFR21, and/or the Technical Specifications.
17.2.15.2.1 Station and Operations When a nonconforming item is discovered at the Station, an NCR and/or a work order document, as appropriate, will be generated by SCE personnel in accordance with procedural requirements.
Rework/reject dispositions for plant equipment will normally be controlled by the work order document process.
Nonconformance documentation contains the item's identification, description of the nonconformance, dispositioning activities, inspection requirements, approval signatures, and the organiza-
'9 tions notified of the nonconformance.
Cause and corrective CN#16 action are -also documented. An SCE nonconformance reporting.
log/system is maintained and indicates the status of each nonconforming item.
17.2-43 Amendment 9 CN#16
17.2.15.2.1 (continued)
Nonconforming items are segregated from acceptable items, where possible, and maintained in a controlled area until properly dispositioned. Nonconforming items discovered in installed
'7 items are evaluated to determine their operability as defined
'CN#6 by the Technical Specifications and use is controlled until I
final disposition of the nonconformance and associated disposition implementation.
Stamps or tags are utilized to identify the nonconformance as described in Subsection 17.2.14. Nonconforming items may be dispositioned Accept-As-Is, repair, rework, or Reject.
An Engineering Review Process (ERP) is utilized to provide
'5 approval of dispositions associated with nonconforming items.
For the dispositioning of nonconformances, the following approvals are required:
Repair or Accept-As-Is Dispositions o
QA Supervisor or his designee
'6 o
Station Technical Manager or his designee
'5 o
Cognizant Station Functional Manager (Maintenance, Operations, Health Physics, etc) or his designee Reject or Rework Dispositions o
QA Supervisor or his designee
'6 o
Cognizant Station Functional Manager (Maintenance, 15 Operations, Health Physics, etc) or his designee Nonconforming items may be authorized for conditional use
'9 prior to implementation of the final NCR disposition ICN#16 providing the following conditions have been met:
o The NCR describes the conditional use.
o Use of the item is controlled such that the safety functions of the system are not adversely affected.
o Identification and traceability of the item is maintained.
o The authorization is approved by the same ERP members required for the disposition approval.
When the nonconformance disposition specifies a rework or repair, these actions are accomplished in accordance with approved procedures, drawings and instructions. SCE quality assurance organization personnel verify acceptability of rework 17.2-44 ment 9
17.2.15.2.1 (continued) and repair dispositioned nonconforming items by reinspection according to methods initially used. When reinspection methods differ from those initially used, methods at least equal to the original inspection are employed. The Station Manager is
- 4 responsible for assuring that rework and repair activities are accomplished in accordance with approved procedures, drawings, and instructions.
Items are designated as nonconforming and are so identified until rework or repair and the required inspections are satisfactorily performed.
Rejected or scrapped items are promptly removed from the station work areas.
The status of these items is displayed by
'9 appropriate documentation.
Quality Assurance Organization
'CN#16 personnel verify the proper disposition of these items.
The SCE design organization responsible for the affected design
'5 document reviews and approves Accept-As-Is and Repair dispositions for design impact.
For an approved disposition, the responsible design organiza tion must issue a written justification for the deviation from the design document or revise the design document in accor dance with applicable requirements.
When the participants in the Engineering Review Process
'9 cannot agree, the final disposition is made by the Manager
'CN#16 of Quality Assurance.
Significant nonconformances of unusual complexity or involvement are submitted to the Vice President,
'7 Nuclear Engineering, Safety and Licensing for resolution.
I NCR's, work order documentation and associated inspection
'9 records are forwarded to the CDM Center for retention purposes.
'CN#16 Nonconformance data are periodically analyzed by the SCE Quality I Assurance Organization to establish quality trends.
The I
results of these analyses are reviewed by the Manager of I
Quality Assurance, for possible corrective action and referred to the Vice President, Nuclear Engineering, Safety and
'7 Licensing, when a potentially serious condition is indicated.
'CN#16 Deficiencies identified by 10CFR5O.55(e) or 10CFR21 are reported to the NRC prior to issuance of the operating license by the NRC.
Thereafter, deficiencies are reported to the NRC in accordance with Technical Specification requirements and/or 10CFR21.
17.2.15.2.2 Engineering Construction Projects (ECP's)
'9 ICN#16 An ERP is also utilized to provide approval of dispositions 17 associated with ECP-related nonconforming items.
For Accept-
'CN#6 As-Is and Repair dispositions, the approval of the following individuals is required:
o Quality Assurance Supervisor, or his designee.
17.2-45 ment 9
17.2.15.2.2 (Continued) o Project Engineer, or his designee.
o Construction/Retrofit Work Manager, or his designee (jobsite construction nonconformances only).
