Waterford Unit 3 License Renewal Scoping and Screening Methodology Audit Plan 6/13/16 - 6/16/16 Purpose of the Audit:
To review the methodology used by the applicant to identify the systems, structures and components (SSC) to be included within the scope of license renewal and subject to an aging management review (AMR) in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 54.4(a) and 10 CFR 54.21.
Goals:
Perform a review of the scoping and screening process as documented in the license renewal application (LRA), implementing procedures, reports and drawings, such that the staff:
Obtains an understanding of the process used to identify the SSCs within the scope of license renewal and to identify the structures and components subject to an AMR.
Has sufficient docketed information to allow the staff to reach a conclusion on the adequacy of the scoping and screening methodology as documented and applied.
Basis for Review:
The staffs review is performed in accordance with the following regulations and guidance:
10 CFR Part 54, Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants.
NUREG-1800, Revision 2, Standard Review Plan for Review of License Renewal Applications for Nuclear Power Plants Final Report.
