Osl 1.0 PURPOSE This procedure provides guidance to plant personnel who are involved in the evaluation and disposition of conditions, found to exist in the plant, which may constitute INOPERABILITY of equipment required by the Technical Specifications.

This procedure ensures a consistent methodology for evaluation, disposition, management review and records retention of identified deficiencies.

This procedure does not replace the requirement for formaL engineering evaluations, but rather provides a consistent guideline for developing timely evaLuations.

PROCEDURE 5'

Initial Actions 1.

Potential deficiencies in of safety-related components may be identified by any of the folloving (non-inclusive list):

10CPR21 Notifications from Vendors QA Non"Conformance Reports Independent Audits (CQA, ONS, INPO, etc.)

NRC Inspections~~

NRC InspectZion and Enforcement Bul.letins Visual observation 2.

Personnel discovering such problems shall use AP"615, NRC Reporting Requirements, to document the discovery and to ensure avareness of shift operations personnel of the situation.

3.

If the Operations Shift Foreman is unable to determine if affected components remain OPERABLE (as defined in Technical Specifications),

he shall notify the fol.loving personnel:

~

Manager - Operations

~

Plant GeneraL Manager 4.

The Plant General Manager shall determine the appropriate actions to be taken and the time allotted for such actions based on input from the unit managers.

This vill include a determination of vhether affected components shall be immediately declared INOPERABLE or shall remain OPERABLE until an evaluation is completed.

OSL 5.1 Initial Actions (continued)

The Plant General Manager shall assign the JCO to the appropriate unit manager; or, he may refer the matter to Harris Plant Engineering Section (HPES) for evaluation.

If HPES is to perform evaluation under their procedure, then no action under this procedure is required until Step 5.2.9.

6.

The Unit Manager shall then assign qualified individual.s to investigate and evaluate the deficiency.

5.2 Eval.uation and Documentation for JCO 1 ~

The identified deficiency shall be evaluated to determine the impact on the functional capabilities of the affected equipment.

2 ~

If at any point during this evaluation it becomes evident that a Technical Specification component is not capable of performing its identified function, then the Manager " Operations and the Plant General Manager shall be informed and appropriate action taken under the Technical Specifications.
