QUALITYASSURANCE Results of QA/QC Oversight Activities

~

Corrective Action Program

- Recurring problems are indicative of less than effective corrective actions

- Poor coordination between departments to resolve findings

- Recent improvements in responses to audit findings and response timeliness noted

~

Design Control and Configuration Management

- Inadequate 10 CFR 50.59 screening of Guidelines

- Procedures and the UFSAR were not always updated to reflect design changes and plant modifications QUALITYASSURANCE Results of QA/QC Oversight Activities (cont.)

~

Maintenance Rule

- St. Lucie Plant was slow to implement the Maintenance Rule

- The EDG system was initiallynot placed in 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(1) status as required

- Formal program elements necessary to assess the overall effect on performance of safety functions due to equipment out of service were not implemented as required 82-83

QUALITYASSURANCE Results of QA/QC Oversight Activities (cont.)

~

Procedural Adherence

- Examples of lack of procedure adherence continue to be identified

~

Procedure Quality

- The procedures do not have sufficient detail

- Recent improvements noted in that operators and maintenance personnel are much less tolerant of inadequate procedures QUALITYASSURANCE Results of QA/QC Oversight Activities (cont.)

~

Foreign Material Exclusion

- Numerous instances of non-compliance with FME requirements were noted during the Unit 1 refueling outage

~

Overtime

- Workers and supervisors repeatedly exceeded overtime policy 84-85

QUALITYASSURANCE Results of QAIQC Oversight Activities (cont.)

~

Security Program

- Security force personnel training and performance have historicaliy been strong

- Recent security events are indicative of weaknesses in access control QUALITYASSURANCE

~

QA DEPARTMENTSTRENGTHS

- Aggressive identification of safety/quality issues

- Accurate assessment of plant performance

- Established a balance of performance-based and compliance-based evaluations

- Interaction with Plant Senior Management

~

QA SELF ASSESSMENT ISSUES ADDRESSED IN 1996

- Stagnation of QA personnel within the QA organization

- Timeliness of QA reporting mechanisms

- Maintaining focus on primary accountabilities

- Clarity of communications with the line organization 86-87

QUALlTYASSURANCE Initiatives to Improve QA Performance

~

Organizational Changes

- Allnew Quality Supervisors (two former NRC Resident Inspectors)

- New Technical Reviews and Assessments (TRA) Group provides real-time oversight of plant operations in all four SALP functional areas a

QA/Line Rotation & Transfer Program

- Rotated 2 Quality Supervisors and two auditors into the line organizations

- Rotated an l&Csupervisor and personnel from Operations and Maintenance into QA

~

Replacing the Periodic Performance Audits with Real-Time Surveillance Reports

- Improves timeliness of QA/QC reporting QUALlTYASSURANCE Initiatives to Improve QA Performance a

Safety Focus - Concentrating Resources on Safety Significant Activities

- Improves utilization of QA'resources

~

Daily QA Report to the Site Vice President and Other Managers

- Real-time communication with site and corporate management a

Quarterly Engineered Safety Features (ESF) System Walk Downs

- Comparing ESF systems to drawings, procedures, and the UFSAR 88-89

QUALlTYASSURANCE Overall QA Assessment of Plant Performance

~

Significant numbers of discrepant conditions continue to be identified by both internal and external oversight organizations

~

However, the site is showing an improving trend, as evidenced by the improved operating performance of both units, by improvements in the material condition of the plant, and by an increasing number of site performance indicators trending positively a

QA is cautiously optimistic that recent performance trends indicate that management initiatives are having the desired effect 90
