~a OC HA mL,N This letter is in response to your letter dated October 22, 1982 addressed to myself and a letter dated November 24, 1982 addressed to W. J." Dircks.
On November 10, 1982, the NRC staff met with the Washington Public Power Supply System staff to hear and discuss the Supply Systems quality assurance program and to determine whether additional assurance is needed in light of recent design deficiencies found at other facilities.
In that meeting your staff described the quality assurance and quality control program and organizations that have been used in the WNP-2 design and construction.
From your presentation it appears that you have developed and are executing a comprehensive WNP-2 plant verification program.
To identify the areas of technical competency represented by the members of your staff, involved with the re-verification program as well as the extension of efforts intended to satisfy the objectives of your proposed Independent Design Verification Program (as outlined in your November 10, 1982 document),
we have requested resumes of the individuals performing these tasks.
We also understand that, in order to provide a high level of independent management assessment of this program, you contracted for the services of Technical Audit Associates Incorporated (TAA), which is a group of well qualified senior technical and management personnel.
Their responsibility to you is to review the adequacy of the overall plant verification program.
The NRC staff is receptive to new initiatives by the industry and will evaluate them objectively based on their merits.
There is no position or requirement for all applicants to conduct an independent design or construction verification program.
Each program is evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Nr. Robert L. Ferguson Because of the major problems which precipitated your work stoppage from July 1980 through June 1981 and the need to assure yourself that the quality of pre-July 1980 work was adequate, a comprehensive plant re-verification program appears to be appropriate and necessary.
You stated during the November 10, 1982 meeting that, as a part of the NNP-2 plant verification program, you intend to perform an independent design verification of three safety-related systems.
You further indicated that the actual design reverification on these three systems would be carried out using MPPSS personnel who have not been and would not be directly involved in the HNP-2 project.
Therefore, their review would provide a degree of independence.
You also indicated that outside perspective on the HPPSS execution of this program would be accomplished by having TAA audit the program for senior tlPPSS management.
Me understand that, at TAA's suggestion, you are adding more personnel to your review team to strengthen
.'some of the review areas.

Because of the major problems which precipitated your work stoppage from July 1980 through June 1981 and the need to assure yourself that the quality of pre-July'1980 work was adequate, your comprehensive plant re-verification program appears to be entirely appropriate and necessary.
You stated during the Noeemger 10, 1982 meeting that y'oo intend to select three safety-related systems to erform an independent design review.
You further indicated that the actual in pendent design review on these three systems would be carried out using your in HPPSS technical staff, and that these HPPSS personnel have not been an ould not be directly involved in the HIIP-2 project.
There-fore, their review w uld provide an adequate degree of independence.
You also indicated that outsid perspective on the HPPSS execution of this program would be accomplished by,having TAA audit the program for senior HPPSS manage-ment.
He understand that>yt TAA's suggestion you are adding more personnel to your review team to streh then some of the review areas.
We, therefore, request that th program be completed, and the results be documented at least two months prtgor to scheduled HNP-2 fuel loading.
This should allow sufficient time for b th HPPSS and NRC staff to evaluate the results and to assure that any find gs are appropriately addressed and resolved, prior to issuance of an ope ting license.

tlr. Rober t L. Ferguson You further dicated that the actual verification program on these three systems would b carried out using your own hlPPSS technical staff.
You indicated that the act that these MPPSS personnel have not been and would not be directly invo d in the HNP-2 project would provide an adequate degree of independence.
You a o indicated that. outside perspective on the WPPSS execution of thi s program ould be accomplished by having TAA audit the program for.senior MPPSS management.
As we understand, TAA involvement, however, would not extend to performin the actual design verifications.
Me believe that the involvement of WPPSS p
sonnel in the management, direction, and execution of the envisioned progr would not allow this program to be charac-terized as independent.
He therefore request that you,propose fully independent design verification program on one (or more) safety-related
- systems, such program to be managed, directed and executed by an independent agent, (contractor) having no prior contractural involvement with NPPSS.
Your proposal should include scope of work, degree of independence of persons perfortRing the work, and a schedule for completion.
The independent agent should complete and document the program results at least two months prior to scheduled MN -2 fuel loading to allow time for both WPPSS and the NRC staff to evaluate the p ogram and to assure that any findings are appropriately addressed and resolv to the satisfaction of the independent
- agent, and the NRC prior to issuance f an operating license.

(2)
Letter dated Novemb q 24, 1982 from R. L. Ferguson to W. J. Dircks, "WNP-2 Plant Verifica ion Program."
This letter is in response to your lette~dated October 22, 1982 addressed to myself and a letter dated November 24, 198 addressed to H. J. Dircks.
On November 10, 1982, the NRC staff met with he Washington Public Power Supply System staff to hear and discuss the Supply Systems quality assurance program and to determine whether additional assurance is, needed in light of recent design deficiencies found at other facilities.
I'q that meeting your staff described the quality assurance and quality control program and organizations that have been used in the WNP-2 design and constru tion.
Your presentation was well received and it appears tha you have developed a
comprehensive WNP-2 plant verification program.
To add strength to that program, you have also contracted for the services of Technical Au(it Associates (TAA),
which is a group of well qualified senior technical and management personnel.
Their purpose is to review the adequacy of the overall plah verification program.
Because of the major problems which precipitated your work stoppage from July 1980 through June 1981 and the need to assure yourself that the quality of pre-July 1980 work was adequate, your comprehensive plant re~verification program appears to be entirely appropriate and necessary.
However, it does not provide a fully independent assessment that the plant has bedn properly designed and constructed.
You indicated during the November 10, 1982 meeting that to accomplish an "independent" design verification program (as contrasted to your 'WNP-2 plant re-verification program) you intend to select three safety-related systems.

SUMMARY
OF SUPPLY SYSTEM ACTIONS TO ASSURE INDEPENDENCE OF DESIGN REVERIFICATION REVIEWS 8301050492
SUMMARY
OF ACTIONS TO ASSURE INDEPENDENCE OF WNP-2 DESIGN REVERIFICATION REVIEWS The Supply System has taken a number of positive steps to assure that the WNP-2
-design reverification reviews are conducted objectively and without undue influence from the WNP-2 Program or the responsible design organizations.
First:
The conduct of the reviews has been assigned to the Technology Director-ate which reports through the Director of Ooerations to the Managing Director independent of the WNP-2 Program (Exhibit 1).
Second:
The individual review team members have been required to certify that they meet independence criteria established by the Managing Director's Office (Exhibit 2).
Third:
An independent Findings Review Committee (FRC) reporting to the Managing Director's Office has been established to review all Potential Finding Reports (PFR) from these reviews, assess their validity and significance, examine them for trends and root causes, and evaluate the adequacy of the response from the responsible design organization (Exhibits 3 and 4).
Fourth:
The findings review process includes a number of checks and balances to assure that all PFRs and the opinions of the originator of the PFRs are given full and open consideration (Exhibit 5).
Fifth:
The scope of the design reverification reviews, changes in their scope, and the assignment of personnel to assure independence is controlled from the Managing Director's Office.
Sixth:
A contract has been established with Technical Audit Associates, Inc.
~TM to review plans and procedures for performing the design reverification reviews, monitor the conduct of these reviews through frequent on-site surveil-lances by their resident design engineer and periodic audits by the review panel, monitor the processing of PFRs through review of dispositioned PFRs and observa-tion of the FRC activities, and evaluate the final report. of the design reveri-fication reviews prepared by Technology.

- Yatabe, 410 An essential element in the conduct of the Requirements and Design Reverification reviews described in the referenced docume'nt is the.
assurance of objectivity in the conduct of the reviews and the processing of the findings from these reviews.
Since we have chosen to perform thyrse reviews primarily with Supply System personnel, the burden of proof to establish objectivity in fact and a",pearance rests with the Supply System.
To provide evidence of the independence of the personnel assigned to these
- reviews, you are:"equested to provide a written confirmation that each individual assigned meets the attached criteria.
This confirmation should take the form of a letter signed by the individual and his supervisor which addresses each of the three areas in the attached criteria and should include, by attachment, a current'esume or other supporting information as appropriate.
A copy for my review and a copy for the program record are sufficient.,'ttachment:

CRITERIA FOR ASSESSING THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE TECHNICAL PERSONNEL ASSIGNED TO THE WNP-2 DESIGN REVERIFICATION REVIEWS The technical personnel assigned to direct, perform the design reviews, or process the findings from the reviews (Lead Engineer, Review Team Leaders, Review Team members, and Findings Review Committee members) shall meet the following criteria:
1.
Present Em lo ent Employee of the Supply System or an organization that has not had res-ponsibility for the design of WNP-2 facilities, systems, or components.
Technical personnel assigned to directing and performing the design reviews (Lead Engineer, Review Team Leader, Review Team members) shall, for the purpose of the design review function, report to Technology.
2.
Previous Em lo ment If previous employment included job assignments with a firm that did have design responsibility fcr WNP-2 facilities, components, or systems, the individual's prior employment shal,l satisfy the following criteria:
a.
Not employed by the firm in question during the time period when that firm performed design work for WNP-2; or b.
The scope of the design to be reviewed bv the individual does not include
~an design work performed by the firm in question; or c.
If the individual will be reviewing
~an design work performed by the firm in question during the period when he was employed by that firm, a written evaluation shall be prepared by the individual and his supervisor for the Design Reverification Review which confirms for the work being reviewed that the individual did not perform the original design work; was not the immediate supervisor of the person who did perform the original design work; did not establish the detailed design inputs for the original design work; and was not the "in-process" checker or reviewer of the original design work (participation in "other" reviews which are not part of the required "in-process" check/review by the responsible design organization will not disqualify the individual for the reverification reviews).

Prior Involvement b
Su 1
S stem Em lo ees in the Develo ment of the WNP-2 Desi n
The Supply System involvement in the development of the WNP-2 redesign has been primarily in the areas of program management, specification of owner requirements, participation in owner
- groups, technical reviews of design documents, gA reviews and audits, and preparation of licensing documents.
In almost all cases, the responsibility for performing the original design work including development of the detailed design inputs and design veri-fication has been delegated to the A-E, NSSS vendor,, component
- vendors, and site contractors.
However, in a few cases and/or for limited time
- periods, some Supply System personnel were directly involved in elements of the design of WNP-2.
Therefore, all Supply System personnel assigned to the reverification reviews as Lead Engineer, Review Team Leader, Review Team member, or Findings Review Cormittee member shall review their prior involvement in the development of the WNP-2 design and provide a written confi rmation that their prior involvement does not conflict with the four criteria listed under 2.c.,
above.
'In this context, prior involvement in specifying owner:requirements in broad areas such as ALARA, ISI, Main-
- tenance, guality Level and Fire Protection classification
- schemes, etc.,
is not cons'dered to be "establishing the detailed Uesign inputs."

TAA's ability results from the combination of three simple pr'inciples into an effective working mechanism.
~
Mature and perceptive judgements can come only from men with outstanding qualifications.
TAA's Technical Audit Board provides access to this basic resource.
It is composed of nearly 100 m.n of National Academy or equiva-lent stature in science, engineering and management.
~
Every situation has several critical aspects.
A good overall judgement can-not result unless each critical area has the, benefit of equally competent expertise.
TAA's Review Panels bring together small groups of outstanding men who collectively represent expertise in all critical areas.
~
--Freedom ifrom 'conflicting interests, both corporate and individual, is essential for findings that will be objective and credible.
TAA maintains corporate objectivity by limitingits business to independent technical auditing and assess-ment.
Technical Audit Board mi.mbers are free of conflicting interests by virtue of their present positions.
TAA is not a conventional management consultant or engineering firm.. It has a different approach'or the identification of key issues a'nd alternatives.
It uses recognized experts for each assignment.
A Review Panel of peers insures TAA's findings are not dominated by the limited experience of a single project leader.
The typical management consulting firm operates with a relatively thin cadre of expert project managers who usually handle several projects at once.
Their job is to draw on the in-house expertise and see that the project is on schedule and on budget.
In this system there is an inevitable learning process for the staff, and also the built-in review process which requires several time consuming steps before results reach the client.
The TAA approach uses a small staff that draws in expertise as needed and puts this expertise in direct contact with the client.
The cumbersome structure of a large organization is avoided.
but, more important, the need.to have. the staff,acquire expertise in the client's business is reduced to a minimum.
Project Leader Review Panel EXPERTISE Staff TYPICAL TAA The Review Pane! is a w~orktn body and ts responsible for TAA's findings.
At a finai presentation the client is invited to question Review Panel m mbers in depth. 'TAA provides direction for the assignm nt.
~
~
,staff.assi'stance to-utilize"-Review Panel time effectively, and maintains liaison with the client.
TAA inte-grates Review Panel opinions into a final report which all concerned support.
As a result the client receives frank opinions from a group of outstanding men with extensive experience and specific expertise.
This approach creates a powerful and efficient mechanism for independent tech-nical assessment.
Review Panels identify key issues quickly, and experience has shown their conclusions stand the test of time.
TAA is not limited to complex technology.
The calibre of TAA's Technical Audit Board is shown by the roster excerpt below:

I OUR UHDERSTAHDIHG QP HE SITUATIO;i:,
The Washington Public Power Supply System (WppSS) has instituted an intensive program to review and validate the design, construction and test of its NNp-2 nuclear generating station ~hich is now about 90% complete.
This in-house effort is called the Plant Verification Program (pVp). 'It is to be a methodical audit, beginning with design requirements and specifications, and continuing throuch des'gn implementation< construction and testing.
The objective of the PVP is to assure that the completed plant will adequately and reliably perform its intended functions whi'e orotecting the health and safety of employees and the public.
The PVP is one element of a broader program known as the WP-2 Compl'etion Plan (C?).
Other elements of the C?
include Completing Constructioni Operational Readiness and Organizational Readiness.
The General Manager of WPPSS desires a highly competent, independent, objective review and assessment of the pvp vlan as developed by NPPSS to give assurance that the desired ends will be achieved as it 's implemented.
T=CHHICAl AUDIT AssoclATES. tNc.
Proposal ll26 March 5, 1982 Page 2.
The assessment of the PVP plan is designated as Phase I of C
the work proposed herein.
It is anticipated "that a continuing, periodic audit of PVP. implementation, to be known as Phase II, will be specified, agreed upon in detail and-undertaken af ter comoletion of Phase I.
It is understood that other, or additional expertise may be needed when Phase IX is defined.
Technical Audit Associates, Inc.
(TAA) will utilize the resources of its Technical Audit Board to meet such needs.
TAA undersrands that NPPSg management views Phase I and Phase II assignments seriously.
It wants the assurance of a comcetent, independent assessment of the PVP plan and 'ts implementation to confirm management diligence and to provide maximum credibility for WPPSS/NNP-2 with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), State Authorities and the oubl'c.
TAA makes this prcposal with the same serious intent.

IV COVc LICT OF INTEREST:
A.
TAA recognizes the sensitive nature of real or apoarent conflicts of interests whenever the objective is
'an independent assessment.
This subject is particularly acute in the nuclear industry to-day.
Every effort must be made to assure not only the technical community and the HRC that findings are objective and technical'y sound; but
- also, and more imoortantly, State
- agencies, advocate groups and the general public must be given every possible assur'ance that the prooosed assessment has not been influenced by the oarochial or vested interests of any oarty to the ultimate findings.
B.
As a corporation, TAA recognized Chat freedom from conflicting interests in fact or appearance was an essential ingredient for the practice or independent technical auditing.
By policy and design, there ore, it has restric"ed its bus'ness to indeoendent technical a c.'.ting and assessment.
It has no commercial ties to any ocher organi ation..? t does not undertake detailed engineering or consulting assignments.
it has no source of income other than its technical audit assignments.
Zt does not select Review Panel members for an assignment if it has TKC'rlNICAI AUOIT ASSOCI*TKS. INC.
Proposal 1126 March 5, 1982 Paae 10.
any reason to believe that they have other interests which could be embarassi ng to the client, TAA or the member himself.
C.
With full recogni tion that all per sons of evper ience have a history of past relations, TAA has attempted to build its Technical Audit Board from people who are in academia or who no longer have active t.'es of a potentially conflicting nature.
Essent ia3.1y, TAA '
Technical Audit Board is composed of men who have made the ir mark in life.
As associates of TM their personal repu tations are more important than any fees they may earn from the relarionship.
This fact makes the ir find ing~ esse nt iaXly pressure immune.
D.."-or this assignment TAA offe s to have each Review Panel and Staf f member sign an aopropriate affidavit of discolsure and/or fr edom from an agreed upon list of conflict oz inte rest issues
( e. g. owners hip of WPPSS tends, em loyment or consulting agreement with major supol ier s to WPPSS far HNP-2, COnfliCting relatiOnShip with l4RC [e.g.
l member of ACRS ) or any other regulatory body, etc. )

Soecific task assignments are identified under Y, "Initial Task Assignments",
and will be further identified by Work Release Orders to be issued as the remaining tasks are more clearly defined.
The initial task assionments include those activities which are readily identifiab',e at this time, independent oi the results of TAA's early
- reviews, pius the initial program monitoring/document review activities through January 1983.
A.
Design Reverification - TAA will conduct a thorough evaluation of the process and the activities by which the Supply System verifies tne adeouac~.
of
~) tne dosion requirements used.or a'.1 safety systems, and
{2) the desi gn of the thro e sel ected sa fety sys ems.
