2.2 ENERAL 2.2.1 The QA Program will be implemented through a series of Nuclear Operation Standards (NOSs) contained in the Supply System Functional Manual for Nuclear Operation. In turn, these NOSs will be implemented by Supply System organizational procedures, programs, or plans which prescribe detailed methods for functional accomplishment. The NOSs will address the applicable requirements of Appendix B to 10CFR 50 and Sections 1 through 18 of the QA Program. A matrix of Nuclear Operation Standards cross referenced against each criteria of Appendix B to 10CFR 50 is included in Table 2-1. The NOSs and implementing procedures, programs, or plans will collectively comply with the regulatory positions of QA-related Regulatory Guides as identified and modified in Appendix II, Position Statements.

2.2.2 A list of safety-related items that will be subject to the applicable controls of the QA Program is included in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) for the applicable Supply System nuclear power plant.
