Ms. Elinor G. Adensam, Director BWR Project Directorate No. 3 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 7920 Norfolk Avenue Washington, DC 20555
Dear Ms. Adensam:
Re: Nine Mile Point Unit 2 Docket No. 50-410 Enclosed are changes to the Final Safety A'nalysis Report. Attachment 1 includes changes concerning the dual role of the Assistant Station Shift Supervisor and Shift Technical Advisor. Attachment 2 includes changes resulting from Niagara Mohawk's reorganization and reflects the organization that will be in place after fuel load. Attachment 3 consists of changes resulting from new Nuclear Training Procedures.
Although changes in Attachments 2 and 3 cover a number of pages, they are not significant and do not involve a change in basic policy. The changes reflect a greater role of Niagara Mohawk management and the phasing out of the Management Analysis Company personnel.
These changes will be included in a subsequent Final Safety Analysis Report amendment.

The Vice President Quality Assurance maintains overall responsibility for, and control of, the deficiency and corrective action reporting system. He has the approval authority for all procedures and changes thereto involved in the Nonconformance Reports system. He maintains control by means of audits, surveillance, and reviews of Nonconformance Reports by personnel of the QA staff. Procedures require that a copy of any report indicating a significant condition PresidentQuality adverse to quality be transmitted to the Vice Assurance or his designee.
Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR 17.1.16.3 Analysis Reports indicating quality problems are reviewed by the QA Department for trend analysis. The QA Department staff is also required by procedures to document and report adverse trends, QA program breakdowns, or other significant deficiencies to the Vice President Quali'ty Assurance or his designee. He has the authority, through reporting to corporate management, to ensure that proper corrective and preventive measures are undertaken to satisfy the requirements of the applicable safety criteria.
17.1.16.4 NRC Notification of Problem Areas Procedures are established regarding the reporting of failures to comply or defects to the NRC, as required by 10CFR21. Procedures provide for internal reporting and analysis of deviations and require the imposition of the requirements of 10CFR21 on suppliers as part of procurement documents.
17.1.16.5 Records The QA Department shall maintain a file of records generated relating to this section as delineated in Section 17.1.17.
17.1.17 Quality Assurance Records 17.1.17.1 General It is the policy of NMPC to maintain a record retention system which contains an easily retrievable quality history for each safety-related item. All records must be consistent with applicable codes, standards, specifications, and contracts. This policy requires that station operating and maintenance records be maintained. Design offices, vendors, and contractors are required to generate and provide to NMPC records covering the period of design, manufacture, and installation. The purpose of this system is to permit reconstruction of the significant events that cause any given part to be located where it is, in regard to physical position and operating status, at any particular point in time. These records can be used for such purpose as analysis of failures, maintenance programs, and replacement frequency.
The following are examples of records to be maintained:
procurement documents, calibration procedures and results, nonconformance reports, operating logs, refueling records,
A Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR 17.1.18.8 Audits/Surveillances by the Quality Assurance Department Staff Independent audits as well as surveillances shall be conducted by the QA Department staff. These include, but are not limited to:

17.1-52 I ~ P ~
Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR All audits include an objective evaluation of quality-related practices, procedures, instructions; ac-tivities and items; and review of documents and records im- to ensure that the QA program is effective and properly plemented in accordance with procedures.
17.1.18.9 Audits by the Safety Review and Audit Board NMPC corporate management utilizes the services of the SRAB to audit QA-related activities at the site, as well as within applicable portions of the QA and Nuclear Departments.
The SRAB conducts audits in the areas and at the frequency specified in the Technical Specifications using checklists prepared in advance. SRAB audits of QA-related activities are conducted under the immediate direction of a board mem-ber or consultant who has no direct responsibilities in the areas being audited. He may invite the participation of a member of the QA Department and/or other concerned groups as observers. The scope of audits conducted by, the SRAB is of such nature as to appraise the QA program policies, activities, and procedures. These policies, activities, and procedures are evaluated against the criteria of Appendix B to 10CFR50. Deficiencies observed in the QA program policies, activities, and procedures are described in the audit report. Snsuing corrective ac(ion is verified on sub-sequent audits by the SRAB.
An annual summary of SRAB audits performed is reported. The distribution of this report is, as a minimum, to the Vice President Nuclear Generation, the Manager Nuclear En-gineering and Licensing, the Chairman of the SRAB, and the Vice President Quality Assurance.
17 ' ~ 18 '0 Records Audit reports are maintained as delineated in Section 17.1.17.

- 9. Review of fire-fighting strategies and procedures.
10; Review of plant modifications and corresponding changes which affect fire-fighting plans.
ll. The instruction will be provided by qualified individuals who are knowledgeable, experienced, and trained in fighting fires that could occur in the plant and using equipment available in the nuclear power plant.
- 12. Instruction will be provided to fire brigade members and fire brigade leaders.
- 13. Regular planned meetings will be held, at a minimum, every 3 months for brigade members to review changes in the fire protection program and other subjects as necessary.
- 14. Periodic training sessions will be held to repeat the classroom instruction program for brigade members over a 2-yr period. These sessions may be concurrent with the regular planned meetings.
13.2.12.2 Practice Practice sessions will be held for each shift fire brigade on the prop r method of fighting fires that could occur in a nuclear power plant. These sessions will provide brigade members with experience in actual fire extinguishment and the use of emergency breathing apparatus under conditions encountered in fire fighting. These practice sessions will be provided once each year for each fire brigade member.
13.2. 12. 3 Drills
- 1. Most fire brigade drills will be performed in the plant so that the fire brigade can practice as a team. Other drills will occur in the site area (transformer yard, etc.).
- 2. Drills will be performed at regular intervals not to exceed 3 months for each shi ft fire brigade.
Fire brigade members may participate in each drill, but must participate in at, least two drills per year.
A. sufficient number of these drills, but not less than one for each shift, fire brigade per year, will be unannounced to determine the fire-fighting 13.2-49a

Persons planning and authorizing an unannounced drill will ensure that the responding shift fire brigade members are not aware that a drill has been planned until it will not be normally has begun.
scheduled Unannounced drills closer than.4 weeks.
At least one drill per year should be performed on a "back shift" for each shift fire brigade.
The drills will be preplanned to establish the training objectives of the drill and will be critiqued to determine how well the training objectives have been met.
Unannounced drills will be planned and critiqued by members of the management staff responsible for plant safety and fire protection. Performance deficiencies of a fire brigade or of individual fire brigade members will be remedied byor scheduling additional training for the brigade members.
Unsatisfactory drill performance will be followed by a repeat drill within 30 days.
At 3-yr intervals, a randomly selected unannounced drill will be critiqued by qualified individuals independent of NMPC's staff. A copy of the written critique shall be available for NRC review.
Drills will, as a minimum, include the following:
Assessment of fire alarm effectiveness, time required to notify and assemble the fire brigade, and selection, placement, and use of equipment and fire-fighting strategies.
Assessment of each brigade member' knowledge of his or her role in the fire-fighting strategy for the area assumed to contain the fire. Assessment of the fire brigade member ' conformance usewith of established fire-fighting procedures and fire-fighting equipment, including self-contained communication emergency breathing apparatus, equipment, and ventilation equipment, to the extent practicable.
