STN 50-528 (License No. NPF-41)/529/530 Change to PVNGS FSAR Chapter 17 File:
85-056-026 G.1.01.10
Dear Mr. Martin:
In accordance with 10CFR 50.55(f),
ANPP is submitting a change to the PVNGS FSAR Section 17.2.9 for your information.
The affected FSAR pages are attached.
This change deletes "chemical analysis" as a special process and changes "cleaning" to "chemical cleaning".
Special processes are those processes which depend largely on the skills of individuals performing the activity.
Due to the programs and procedures utilized by ANPP, chemical analysis does not fall under the category of special processes.
Under the criteria used to determine special processes, cleaning is not considered a special
- process, but chemical cleaning is considered a special process.
These clarifications to the FSAR are consistent with ANSI 18.7; 10CFR 50, Appendix B; NUREG-0800; and ANPP QA Manual Criterion 9.
These changes do not diminish the effectiveness of the quality program, because controls still remain on chemical analysis.
Because of the programs and procedures concerning chemical analysis, safety is not being decreased.
A 10CFR 50.59 review has been performed for PVNGS Unit 1 concerning this change and it did not identify an unreviewed safety question.

17.2.9 CONTROL OF SPECIAL PROCESSES Special processes are defined as those processes where process quality is largely dependent on the skill of the operator and on the control of process parameters.
