D.l OVERALL APPROACH AND SCOPE Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) is ultimately responsible for assuring that the design, fabrication, construction, testing, operation, maintenance. and betterment of the Salem Nuclear Generating Station is accomplished in a manner which protects public health and safety and is in complian*ce with applicable regulatory requirements. To carry out this responsi-bility, PSE&G developed and implemented a comprehensive Quality Assurance Program which is applicable to the design, construction and testing /operations phases *and will continue th:toughout the life of the station. This Quality Assurance Program is documented in a corporate Quality Assurance Manual which is maintained by the Quality Assurance Department (QAD). The Quality Assurance Program provides the necessary measures which result in quality controls over safety related structures, systems, components, materials and services. The Quality Assurance Program encompasses fire protection of safety related areas and other activities enumerated in Regulatory Guide 1. 33. Quality Assurance surveillance and a1Jd.:i,,ts. assure.::-that specified requirements of the program are met. The Quality Assurance Program provides coordinated, centralized quality assurance direction, control and documentation as required by the NRC criteria set forth in 10CFRSO Appendix B. In addition, the PSE&G Quality Assurance Program is based upon the Policy statements of PSE&G Management. It is implemented through Quality Assurance Procedures, Instructions, Standards,

Specifications and Forms, which provide the details of how

  • policy is implemented for each of the 18 criteria of 10CFRSO Appendix B.

See Figure D.1-3 for a matrix illustrating how PSE&G implements the 18 quality assurance criteria of the NRC. The NRC Regulatory Guides and applicable national codes and sta~dards are used as guides to structure the procedures and instructions in that figure. These documents and the policy statements are contained in the PSE&G Quality Assurance Manual and are used to coordinate the quality assurance activities of the various departments within PSE&G that are responsible for engineering, procurement, construction, testing, operation, refueling maintenance, /betterment and services. To assess the-* effective-ness of the PSE&G Quality Assurance Program, independent auditors from outside the company periodically audit the program for compliance with corporate quality objectives, 10CFRSO Appendix B, and other Regulatory commitments. Reports of such audits are made directly to upper management above the level of the Manager - Quality Assurance. PSE&G requires its suppliers to assume responsibility for establishing and implementing QA/QC programs within their scope of supply. Those QA/QC programs are contractually required, as applicable, to meet 10CFRSO Appendix B. PSE&G QAD reviews those programs and conducts appropriate audits and surveillances to assure that the suppliers are properly carry-ing out their QA/QC programs. The PSE&G QA Program verifies that requirements necessary to assure quality are properly

included or referenced. In addition, these suppliers' purchase documents include the requirement that their sub-suppliers have a QC program sufficient to assure and document specified product quality for the items and services supplied. QAD _interface for_ safety related activities is illustrated in Figure D.1-5. The corporate Q~ality Assurance Program described in Section D.l . -; ~. and D.2 is applicable to the operations *phase described in D.S. Therefore, after loading fuel in Salem Unit 2, Section D.3 Westinghouse Quality Assurance Plan and Section D.4 United Engineers & Constructors, Inc. Quality Assurance Plan become inoperative.

All safety related procurements shall be made from approved suppliers. Selection and evaluation of prospective bidders and suppliers is performed by the responsible engineer and the QAD. The responsible engineer determines the technical competence of the suppliers. The QAD evaluates the prospective supplier's quality assurance program for compliance with and capability of meeting applicable requirements of 10CFRSO Appendix B and that the applicable program requirements are extended to sub-tier suppliers. Qualified QAD personnel evaluate prospective suppliers quality assurance program utilizing one or more techniques including but not necessarily limited to: a) evaluation of suppliers' or contractors' procedures or manuals and changes there of.

b) ASME code stamp approval. c) CASE register listing. d) Satisfactory past history of providing similar items. e) Survey of supplier's facility. The evaluations conducted of the prospective suppliers utilize standard checklist/forms designed to include 18 quality criteria of 10CFRSO Appendix B as appropriate. Surveys of suppliers' capabilities include evaluation of management systems, manufacturing process as well as adherence to QA/QC procedures. The results of supplier evaluations are documented by the appropriate checklist/form and filed. QAD /Supplier control is maintained through a planned inspection, surveillance and audit program. A review of the manufacturing process for manufactured items such as pumps, valves, heat exchanges, vessels, electrical panels etc. is conducted by the QAD and the responsible engineer. This review establishes critical inspection points and establishes a Notification Point Program for the identi~ied ** inspection or surveillance activities.. The established inspection or surveillance activities are implemented by QAD qualified QAD personnel or/agents. Standard catalogue items,

where quality can be verified by receiving inspection or installation check out, are not normally included in the Notification Point Program. Surveillance of suppliers/contractors during fabrication, installation,modification, repair, inspection, testing and shipment of materials, equipment and services,is conducted by QAD qualified QAD personnel or/agents at the supplier's/contractor's facility or the generating station. The surveillance is conducted in accordance with written procedures and is designed to assure conformance with procurement requirements in accordance with the safety significance of the item or service. Consistent with the importance or complexity of the* item or service, periodic evaluations of the supplier/contractor quality prograni is conducted. Dependent upon the evaluation, additional audits* or correc:tions may be required of the supplier/contractor. Procurement of replacement parts will be by adherence to the original design criteria,where feasible (such as NSSS components in accordance with Westinghouse documentation, other code components in accordance with ASME Section III 1971 and Sunimer 1972 Addenda or later). This will provide the level of safety intended and will not result in redesign of the system. Quality assurance requirements will be consistent with the FSAR *. commitments.

The requirement for appropriate supplier documentation o;e conformance to.applicable code, standard, specification or other quality requirement is provided.by the procurement document. The supplier-provided documentation. is reviewed either at the supplier's facility during an inspection or surveillance visit, or at receiving inspection. A data review check off is provided and utilized documenting the acceptability of the supplier provided data or identifying discrepancies. Receiving inspection of supplier equipment, material and services is conducted by qualified personnel to verify correct identification, appropriate documentation, and that the item is acceptable and can be released for storage, installation, or use.
