We received your 10 CFR 50.54(a) submittal referenced above transmitting a
change request to the Quality Assurance Program for the R.
E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant.
The Region I staff has reviewed this submittal in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a).
The specific changes were discussed during a meeting between the NRC and Rochester Gas and Electric Company
{RGE) on September 18, 1994.
The key changes reviewed were:
reformatting the QA Program based on the approach provided in the NRC Standard Review Plan 17.3; QA reporting responsibility changed from the Senior Vice President to the Vice President of Nuclear Operations; replacing the QA Manual with the Nuclear Policy Manual
{Nuclear Directives);
increased emphasis on line organization's self-assessments and quality reviews; decreasing the assessment frequencies in certain performance areas; emphasizing the performance based approach more than the compliance based approach for assessment activities; and more clearly describing elements of the N45.2 daughter standards in the Quality Assurance Program.
