June 1, 1995 Duke Power Company ATTN:
Mr. J. W. Hampton Vice President Oconee Site P. 0. Box 1439 Seneca, SC 29679 Gentlemen:
SUBJECT:
MEETING
SUMMARY
- OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION QA PROGRAM This refers to the management meeting conducted in the Region II office on May 1, 1995.
This meeting was a followup to the February 6, 1995, NRC/Duke management meeting, and focussed on issues discussed in the NRC response dated March 30, 1995, and the Oconee QA-1 licensing basis clarification submittal dated.April 12, 1995. A list of attendees and a copy of your presentation handout are enclosed.
Your presentation was beneficial, in that it provided the NRC staff with a background and a summary of your Oconee Safety-Related Designation (OSRD)
Clarification Project. Our understanding of the results of the meeting are as follows:
Duke stated that the Oconee QA-5 program is considered to be an addition to the current program described in the current licensing basis. As such, it will not be submitted as a commitment to the NRC, however the QA program will be revised to include a definition of the additional equipment category. QA-5 structures, systems and components (SSCs) with safety functions will receive additional quality treatment in the form of enhanced maintenance procedures and surveillance testing.
As stated in the April 12, 1995, submittal, Duke has deduced, from previous correspondence related to the design and licensing of Oconee, that the licensing basis for the definition of the scope of safety related equipment was a large break loss of coolant accident coincident with a loss of offsite power (LOCA/LOOP).
The April 12, 1995, submittal also contained a revised, Oconee response to Generic Letter 83-28, "Required Actions Based on Generic Implications of Salem ATWS Events."
NRR agreed to review the April 12, 1995, submittal, and respond by August 1, 1995, providing the NRC position on the description of the original licensing basis. NRR will also review the licensing basis as modified by the Duke responses to GL 83-28.

Separate meeting arrangements will be made by NRR if further discussions are required to further the review of the Oconee licensing bases.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practise," a copy of this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
Should you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact me at 404-331 5680.

- The OSRD Project will:
Clarify Oconee QA-1 licensing basis and obtain NRC approval.
Verify Oconee QA-1 SSCs are properly categorized.
Identify non QA-1 SSCs at Oconee that warrant an augmented quality standards program.
> Develop a program to maintain this quality standard.

> Make a submittal to clarify the Oconee QA-1 licensing basis.
Develop a list of Oconee accidents with QA-5 accidents identified.
>> Establish a QA-5 criterion to apply to non QA-1 SSCs that mitigate QA-5 accidents.
- These items have been completed.
Duke Power Company
Status of OSRD Project
- Oconee QA-1 licensing basis clarification submittal to NRC dated April 12, 1995.
- Submittal addressed the following:

>> Proposal on addressing issues with Subpart 1 of Section 2.2.1 of Generic Letter 83-28
>> Oconee Accident List with QA-5 Accidents identified
>> QA-5 Criterion Duke Power Company
Status of OSRD Project
- Our submittal:
>> provides a clear dividing line between QA-1 SSCs and non QA-1 SSCs which prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents.
> shows why the SSC scope of the QA-1 program at Oconee is unique.
>> clarifies that Oconee's licensing basis focused on SSCs essential to mitigation of LBLOCA/LOOP and other primary systems whose radioactive releases could impact the health and safety of the public.

Discussion of the March 30, 1995 NRC Response Letter
~
~
- Incorporation of QA-5 into Duke's QA Topical Report.
> The "definition" of QA-5 will be incorporated into the QA Topical Report.
> Will be similar to incorporation of QA-3 and QA-4 in the QA Topical Report
>> The QA-5 program requirements will be implemented through Duke directives and procedures.
Duke Power Company 14
Discussion of the March 30, 1995 NRC Response Letter
- QA-5 Procurement
>> QA-5 parts procurement will be conducted in the same structured manner as procurement of non-safety parts.
Duke Power Company 15
Discussion of the March 30, 1995 NRC
Response
Letter
- QA-5 Procurement (cont'd)
>> We believe our QA-5 program will ensure that these SSCs meet their intended design functions.
> Normal procurement practices combined with installation and post installation practices essentially the same as QA-1 will provide this assurance.
Duke Power Company 16
Discussion of the March 30, 1995 NRC Response Letter
- QA-5 Procurement (cont'd)
>> Procurement
> Installation
>> Post-Installation Duke Power Company 17
Discussion of QA-5 and the Maintenance Rule
- The MR screening criteria bounds QA-5.
- The MR also recognizes that non-safety equipment is used for accident mitigation.
- In the unlikely event that any additional systems are identified through the development of the QA-5 Accident charts, these systems will be included in the MR.
