These measures shall include, as appropriate, procedures for identification, documentation, segregation, disposition and notification to affected organizations. Nonconforming items shall be reviewed and accepted, rejected, repaired or reworked in accordance with documented procedures.

15.2 IMPLEMENTATION 15.2.1 Program Quality Instructions shall define the responsibilities and methods for identifying, documenting, segregating and providing disposition for nonconforming items. Throughout plant life, FPL may delegate any portion of the identification and control of nonconforming items and services to an Architect/Engineer (A/E), constructor, NSSS vendor or other contractor. In any case, FPL retains the responsibility for assuring that requirements are met, and shall assure that the contractor's actions conform to requirements set by FPL.

15.2.2 Documenting and Controlling Nonconformances All nonconformances shall be documented and reported for corrective action.

Measures shall be delineated in Quality Instructions which control further processing, installation, or operation of. nonconforming items. These measures shall include:

a. Physical identification of the item as nonconforming;
b. Segregation, of nonconforming items until disposition is properly provided.

Where physical segregation is not practical, suitable tags, marking or documentation shall be used to assure control.

Adequate controls shall be established to assure traceability between processing methods and the identified nonconforming item and to prevent inadvertent cancellation of the corrective action implementing document.

15.2.3 Documentation Documentation of the nonconforming item shall: identify the item; describe the nonconformance; show disposition of the nonconformance and inspection requirements; and,include the signature of the person approving the disposition.

15.2.4 Evaluation and Disposition Nuclear Engineering, or other delegated organizations, as specified by procedure, shall evaluate nonconformances and provide disposition for them based on the results of the evaluations; Nonconforming conditions which cannot be made acceptable utilizing existing design documents shall. be evaluated by Nuclear Engineering for disposition. These evaluations and dispositions shall be reviewed, approved and documented in accordance with procedures.

An evaluation to determine the disposition of nonconforming items shall be performed. The evaluation shall-determine whether an item is to be accepted as-is, repaired, reworked or rejected; A. technical- evaluation shall be performed when an item is accepted as-is or is repaired to an-acceptable, condition. Records of the disposition of these items shall: be made part of the nonconformance report. This, evaluation shall assure that the final condition does not adversely effect safety, operability or maintainability of the item, or of the component or system in which it is installed.

TOPICAL UALITYASSURANCE REPORT T R 15.0 Rev. 11 Draft A NONCONFORMING MATERIALS, PARTS -OR COMPONENTS Date 10/21/96 Pa e 3 of 5 The A/E, or other contractors on-site, shall be required .to inform FPL as specified in procurement documents prior to use or installation of a nonconforming item. The nature and extent of a nonconformance and the reason

.d'l for proposing its use or installation shall be justified. Nonconforming items I'" * -i". i d *p condition, shall be so identified; Nonconformance reports for those items shall be made part of the item records and forwarded with the materi items to FPI..

The determination of the need and the advisability of releasing nonconforming caateri4e-er- items-, shall be initiated by the Site Vice President, and approved by Nuclear Engineering. The following factors may be appropriate considerations in making this determination:

a. Effect on the orderly progress of work ifmatual-er- items are released;
b. Safety of personnel;
c. Suitability of mater@i-ee items in "as-is" condition, i.e., probability of eventual satisfactory resolution of the nonconformance without repair, rework, or replacement;
d. Accessibility of mater&-er- items after release;
e. Cost. of removal and repair of replacement should matual-er- items eventually have to be removed, repaired, or replaced;
f. Impact on plant safety.

Items shall be reworked or repaired in accordance with documented'procedures and'hall'e verified by reinspecting the item as originally inspected or by a documented method which is at least equal to the original inspection method.
