SUBJECT:

ACCEPTANCE OF ADVANCED POWER REACTOR 1400 TOPICAL REPORT APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP, REVISION 5, KHNP QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM DESCRIPTION FOR THE APR1400 DESIGN CERTIFICATION

Dear Dr. Lee:

By letter dated May 2, 2016, Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power Co. Ltd (KHNP) submitted Revision 5 of Topical Report (TR) APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff for review and approval. APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP, Revision 5 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML16123A404) contained minor revisions to reflect organizational changes within KHNP to support APR1400 Design Certification (DC) project efficiency.

The NRC staff has reviewed APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP, Revision 5 and has found that it is acceptable for use by KHNP for the APR1400 DC activities. The NRC staff confirmed that the changes incorporated into APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP, Revision 5 were administrative in nature and do not constitute a reduction in commitment from the previous NRC-approved version of APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP. Our acceptance applies only to material provided in the subject TR, and not the APR1400 DC submittal. The NRC staff requires that KHNP update the reference revision number in the Design Control Document (DCD), Chapter 17.5, Quality Assurance and Reliability Assurance, in the future revision of the DCD.

Dr. J. Lee If you have any questions or comments concerning this matter, please contact me at 301-415-6391, or via e-mail at Jeff Ciocco@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff prepared a Final Topical Report Safety Evaluation (TRSE) for Topical Report (TR) APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP, Revision 4, KHNP Quality Assurance Program Description for the APR1400 Design Certification in support of the APR1400 design certification (DC) submitted by the Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power Company (KHNP).

The staff requests that KHNP publish the applicable version of the TRSE listed above within one month of receipt of this letter. The accepted version of the TR should incorporate this letter and the enclosed TRSE and add an -A (designated accepted) following the report identification number.

If the NRC criteria or regulations change, so that this conclusion that the TRSE is acceptable is invalidated, KHNP and/or the applicant referencing the TRSE will be expected to revise and resubmit its respective documentation, or submit justification for continued applicability of the TRSE without revision of the respective documentation.

Prior to placing the public version of this document in the public document room the staff requests that KHNP perform a final review of the TRSE for proprietary or security-related information not previously identified. If you believe that any additional information meets the criteria, please identify such information line by line and define the basis pursuant to the criteria established in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 2, Section 390.

If after a 10 day period, you do not request that all or portions of the TRSE be withheld from public disclosure, the TRSE will be made available for public inspection through the NRC Public Document Room and the Publicly Available Records component of NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) and placed on the NRC public web page for this application.

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 PART I INTRODUCTION SECTION 1 GENERAL KHNPs Quality Assurance Program Description (QAPD) for the APR1400 Design Certification (DC) is the top-level policy document that establishes the quality assurance policy and assigns major functional responsibilities for nuclear safety-related activities associated with the development and submittal of an application for design certification to the US NRC for the APR1400. The QAPD describes the methods and establishes quality assurance (QA) and administrative control requirements that meet 10 CFR 50, Appendix B and 10 CFR 52. The QAPD is based on the requirements and recommendations of ASME NQA-1-2008 and NQA-1a-2009 Addenda, "Quality Assurance Requirements for Nuclear Facility Applications," Parts I, II, and III, as specified in this document.

The QA Program (QAP) is defined by the NRC-approved regulatory document that describes the QA elements (i.e., the QAPD), along with the associated implementing documents. Procedures and instructions that control nuclear safety-related activities associated with the APR1400 DC will be developed prior to commencement of those activities.

Policies establish high-level responsibilities and authority for carrying out important administrative functions which are outside the scope of the QAPD.

Procedures establish practices for certain activities which are common to all KHNP organizations performing those activities so that the activity is controlled and carried out in a manner that meets QAPD requirements. Procedures specific to an organization or group establish detailed implementation requirements and methods, and may be used to implement policies or be unique to particular functions or work activities.

1.1 Scope/Applicability The QAPD applies to the APR1400 DC activities affecting the quality and performance of safety-related structures, systems, and components, including, but not limited to:

Designing Procuring Inspecting Testing Licensing Safety-related SSCs, under the control of the QAPD, are identified by design documents. The technical aspects of these items are considered when determining program applicability, including, as appropriate, the item's design safety function. The QAPD may be applied to certain activities where regulations other than 10 CFR 50 and 10 CFR 52 establish QA requirements for activities within their scope.

The policy of KHNP is to assure a high degree of availability and reliability of nuclear plants while ensuring the health and safety of its workers and the public. To this end, selected elements of the QAPD are also applied to certain equipment and activities that are not safety-related, but support safe, economic, and reliable plant operations, or where other NRC guidance establishes quality assurance requirements. Implementing documents establish program element applicability.

The definitions provided in ASME NQA-1a-2009 Addenda, Part I, Section 400, apply to select terms as used in this document.

KOREA HYDRO & NUCLEAR POWER CO., LTD. 1

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 PART II QAPD DETAILS SECTION 1 ORGANIZATION This section describes the organizational structure, functional responsibilities, levels of authority and interfaces for establishing, executing, and verifying QAPD implementation for the APR1400 DC project. The organizational structure includes corporate and support functions for the APR1400 DC project including interface responsibilities for multiple organizations that perform quality-related functions. Implementing documents assign more specific responsibilities and duties, and define the organizational interfaces involved in conducting activities and duties within the scope of the QAPD.

Project management gives careful consideration to the timing, extent, and effects of organizational structure changes.

Designing, engineering, testing, and licensing services can be delegated to suppliers who conduct activities in accordance with their quality assurance program (QAPs). KHNP reviews supplier QAPs for compliance with KHNPs contractually imposed QA requirements and approves supplier QAPs that meet those requirements. Additionally, KHNP audits suppliers implementation of their QAPs and executed activities, including technical requirements, to ensure that they comply with the suppliers QAP and KHNPs QAP requirements (that is, with 10CFR50 Appendix B, 10CFR21, and ASME NQA-1-2008 and 1a-2009 Addenda). In conducting these implementation reviews, KHNP includes staff with appropriate technical expertise to assess implementation of the technical and QA requirements. Although KHNP imposes these QA requirements through contacts and procurement documents, final responsibility is retained by KHNP. Finally, these suppliers are evaluated and approved prior to performing safety-related work.

The following sections describe the reporting relationships, functional responsibilities and authorities for organizations implementing and supporting the APR1400 DC QA Program. The KHNP APR1400 DC project organization is shown in Figure II. 1-1.

1.1 President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

The President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) represents the company and is responsible for the management of the company. The CEO directs the Executive Vice President/ Head of Technology & Engineering Division (EVPTED) and the Vice President of Quality Assurance Department (VPQA).

1.2 Executive Vice President/ Head of Technology & Engineering Division (EVPTED)

The EVPTED is responsible for all aspects of activities associated with the APR1400 DC project.

The EVPTED directs the Vice President/ Head of KHNP Central Research Institute (VP) in fulfillment of his or her responsibilities. The EVPTED reports to the CEO with respect to all important matters associated with the APR1400 DC and approves this QAPD, as does the Vice President of Quality Assurance Department (VPQA).

1.3 Vice President of Quality Assurance Department (VPQA)

The VPQA reports to the CEO. He or she is responsible for Regulatory Affairs, developing, maintaining and implementing the KHNP QA Program and for verifying that activities are in compliance with applicable regulatory, code, and industry requirements. The VPQA is responsible to size the Quality Assurance staff commensurate with the duties and responsibilities assigned.

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 Figure II. 1-1 KHNP APR1400 DC Project Organization KOREA HYDRO & NUCLEAR POWER CO., LTD. 5

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 SECTION 2 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM KHNP has established the necessary measures and governing procedures to implement the QAP as described in this QAPD. KHNP is committed to implementing the QAP in all aspects of work that are important to the safety of nuclear plants as described and to the extent delineated in this QAPD.

Further, KHNP ensures through the systematic process described herein, that suppliers of safety-related equipment or services meet the applicable requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B. Senior management is regularly apprised of the adequacy of implementation of the QAP through the audit functions described in Part II, Section 18 of this QAPD.

The objective of the QAP is to assure that KHNPs nuclear generating plants are designed in accordance with governing regulations and license requirements. The program is based on the requirements of ASME NQA-1-2008 and NQA-1a-2009 Addenda, "Quality Assurance Requirements for Nuclear Facility Applications," as further described in this document. The QAP applies to those quality-related activities that involve the functions of safety-related structures, systems, and components (SSCs) associated with the design and licensing of the new nuclear power plants. A list or system that identifies SSCs and activities to which this program applies is maintained at the appropriate facility. Regulatory Guide 1.26 is used as the basis for this list. Cost and scheduling functions do not prevent proper implementation of the QAP.

As described in PART III of this document, specific program controls are applied to nonsafety-related SSCs that are significant contributors to plant safety, for which 10 CFR 50, Appendix B is not applicable. The specific program controls consistent with applicable sections of the QAPD are applied to those items in a selected manner, targeted at those characteristics or critical attributes that render the SSC a significant contributor to plant safety.

Delegated responsibilities may also be performed by a suppliers QAP, provided that supplier has been approved as a supplier in accordance with the QAP. Periodic audits and assessments of supplier QA programs are performed to assure compliance with the supplier's QAP and implementing procedures. In addition, routine interfaces with suppliers personnel provide added assurance that quality expectations are met.

In general, the program requirements specified herein are detailed in implementing procedures that are either KHNP implementing procedures, or supplier implementing procedures governed by a supplier quality assurance program.

A grace period of 90 days may be applied to provisions that are required to be performed on a periodic basis, unless otherwise noted. Annual evaluations and audits that must be performed on a triennial basis are examples where the 90 day general period could be applied. The grace period does not allow the "clock" for a particular activity to be reset forward. The "clock" for an activity is reset backwards by performing the activity early. Audit schedules are based on the month in which the audit starts.

2.1 Responsibilities Personnel who work directly or indirectly for KHNP are responsible for achieving acceptable quality in the work covered by the QAPD. This includes the activities delineated in Part I, Section 1.1 in this document. KHNP personnel performing verification activities are responsible for verifying the achievement of acceptable quality. Activities governed by the QAPD are performed as directed by documented instructions, procedures and drawings that are of a detail appropriate for the activity's complexity and effect on safety. Instructions, procedures and drawings specify quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria as applicable or appropriate for the activity, and verification is KOREA HYDRO & NUCLEAR POWER CO., LTD. 6

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 against these criteria. Provisions are established to designate or identify the proper documents to be used in an activity, and to ascertain that such documents are being used. The GMQA is responsible to verify that processes and procedures comply with the QAPD and other applicable requirements, that such processes or procedures are implemented, and that management appropriately ensures compliance.

2.2 Delegation of Work KHNP retains and exercises the responsibility for the scope and implementation of an effective QAP. Positions identified in Part II, Section 1 in this document, may delegate all or part of the activities of planning, establishing, and implementing the program for which they are responsible to others, but retain the responsibility for the program's effectiveness. Decisions affecting safety are made at the level appropriate for its nature and effect, and with any necessary technical advice or review.

2.3 Periodic Review of the Quality Assurance Program Management of those organizations implementing the QA program, or portions thereof, assess the adequacy of that part of the program for which they are responsible to assure its effective implementation at least once each year or at least once during the life of the activity, whichever is shorter.

2.4 Issuance and Revision to Quality Assurance Program Administrative control of the QAPD will be in accordance with 10 CFR 50. 54(a)(3) & 50.71(e) as appropriate. Changes to the QAPD are evaluated by the staff of the Quality Assurance Team to ensure that such changes do not degrade previously approved quality assurance controls specified in the QAPD. This document shall be revised as appropriate to incorporate additional QA commitments that may be established during the DC application development process. New revisions to the document will be prepared by the GMQA, reviewed by the VP, and approved by the VPQA and the EVPTED.

2.5 Personnel Qualifications Personnel assigned to implement elements of the QAPD shall be capable of performing their assigned tasks. To this end, KHNP establishes and maintains formal indoctrination and training programs for personnel performing, verifying, or managing activities within the scope of the QAPD to assure that suitable proficiency is achieved and maintained. Sufficient managerial depth is provided to cover absences of incumbents. When required by code, regulation, or standard, specific qualification and selection of personnel is conducted in accordance with those requirements as established in the applicable KHNP procedures.

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 SECTION 3 DESIGN CONTROL KHNP has established and implements a process to control the design and design changes of items that are subject to the provisions of this QAPD. The design process includes provisions to control design inputs, outputs, changes, interfaces, records, and organizational interfaces within suppliers and with other organizations. These provisions assure that design inputs (such as design bases and the performance, regulatory, quality, and quality verification requirements) are correctly translated into design outputs (such as analyses, specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions) so that the final design output can be related to the design input in sufficient detail to permit verification. Design change processes and the division of responsibilities for design-related activities are detailed in KHNP and suppliers procedures. The design control program includes interface controls necessary to control the development, verification, approval, release, status, distribution, and revision of design inputs and outputs. Design changes and disposition of nonconforming documents are reviewed and approved by KHNP or by other organizations so authorized by KHNP. KHNP shall establish and implement a measure to describe that interface control, among internal and external organizations participating in design activities, shall include assignment of responsibility and procedures for review, approval, release, distribution, and revision of documents involving design interfaces.

Design and analysis documents are reviewed by technical individuals who have been educated about QA requirements by the Quality Assurance Team and qualified by the Licensing Team to ensure that the documents contain and implement the necessary QA requirements.

3.1 Design Verification KHNP design processes provide for design verification to ensure that items and activities subject to the provisions of the QAPD are suitable for their intended application, consistent with their effect on safety. Design changes are subjected to these controls, which include verification measures commensurate with those applied to original plant design.

Design verifications are performed by competent individuals or groups other than those who performed the original design but who may be from the same organization. The verifier shall not have taken part in the selection of design inputs, the selection of design considerations, or the selection of a singular design approach, as applicable. This verification may be performed by the originator's supervisor provided the supervisor did not specify a singular design approach, rule out certain design considerations, and did not establish the design inputs used in the design. The verification may also be performed by the originators supervisor if the supervisor is the only individual in the organization competent to perform the verification. If the verification is performed by the originator's supervisor, the justification of the need is documented and approved in advance by management.

The extent of the design verification required is a function of the importance to safety of the item under consideration, the complexity of the design, the degree of standardization, the state-of-the art, and the similarity with previously proven designs. This includes design inputs, design outputs, and design changes. Design verification procedures are established and implemented to assure that an appropriate verification method is used, the appropriate design parameters to be verified are chosen, the acceptance criteria are identified, and the verification is satisfactorily accomplished and documented. Verification methods may include, but are not limited to, design reviews, alternative calculations and qualification testing. Testing used to verify the acceptability of a specific design feature demonstrates acceptable performance under conditions that simulate the most adverse design conditions expected for the item's intended use.

KOREA HYDRO & NUCLEAR POWER CO., LTD. 9

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 KHNP normally completes design verification activities before the design outputs are used by other organizations for design work, and before they are used to support other activities such as procurement, manufacture, or construction. When such timing cannot be achieved, the design verification is completed before relying on the item to perform its intended design or safety function.

3.2 Design Records KHNP maintains records sufficient to provide evidence that the design was properly accomplished.

These records include the final design output and any revisions thereto, as well as records of the important design steps (e.g., calculations, analyses and computer programs) and the sources of input that support the final output.

Plant design drawings reflect the properly reviewed and approved configuration of the plant.

3.3 Computer Application and Digital Equipment Software The QAPD governs the development, procurement, testing, maintenance, and use of computer application and digital equipment software when used in safety-related applications and designated nonsafety-related applications. KHNP and suppliers are responsible for developing, approving, and issuing procedures, as necessary, to control the use of such computer application and digital equipment software. The procedures require that the application software be assigned a proper quality classification and that the associated quality requirements be consistent with this classification. Each application software and revision thereto is documented and approved by authorized personnel. The QAPD is also applicable to the administrative functions associated with the maintenance and security of computer hardware where such functions are considered essential in order to comply with other QAPD requirements such as QA records.

3.4 NQA-1-2008 and NQA-1a-2009 Addenda Commitment In establishing its program for design control and verification, KHNP commits to compliance with NQA-1-2008 and NQA-1a-2009 Addenda, Requirement 3 and the standards for computer software in NQA-1-2008 and NQA-1a-2009 Addenda, Part II, Subpart 2.7 and 2.14.

QAPD for the APR1400 DC APR1400-K-Q-TR-11005-NP-A, Revision 2 SECTION 7 CONTROL OF PURCHASED MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT, AND SERVICES KHNP has established the necessary measures and governing procedures to control the procurement of items and services to assure conformance with specified requirements. Such control provides for the following as appropriate: source evaluation and selection, evaluation of objective evidence of quality furnished by the supplier, source inspection, audit, and examination of items or services.

7.1 Acceptance of Item or Service KHNP establishes and implements measures to assess the quality of purchased items and services, whether purchased directly or through suppliers, at intervals and to a depth consistent with the item's or service's importance to safety, complexity, quantity, and the frequency of procurement. Verification actions include testing, as appropriate, during design activities.

Verifications occur at the appropriate phases of the procurement process, including, as necessary, verification of activities of suppliers below the first tier.

Measures to assure the quality of purchased items and services include the following, as applicable:

  • Items are inspected, identified, and stored to protect against damage, deterioration, or misuse.
  • Prospective suppliers of safety-related items and services are evaluated to assure that only qualified suppliers are used. Qualified suppliers are audited on a triennial basis. In addition, if a subsequent contract or a contract modification significantly enlarges the scope of, or changes the methods or controls for, activities performed by the same supplier, an audit of the modified requirements is conducted, thus starting a new triennial period. KHNP may utilize audits conducted by outside organizations for supplier qualification provided that the scope and adequacy of the audits meet KHNP requirements. Documented annual evaluations are performed for qualified suppliers to assure they continue to provide acceptable products and services. Industry programs, such as those applied by ASME, are used as input or the basis for supplier qualification whenever appropriate. The results of the reviews are promptly considered for effect on a supplier's continued qualification and adjustments made as necessary (including corrective actions, adjustments of supplier audit plans, and input to third party auditing entities, as warranted). In addition, results are reviewed periodically to determine if, as a whole, they constitute a significant condition adverse to quality requiring additional action.
  • Provisions are made for accepting purchased items and services, such as source verification, receipt inspection, certificates of conformance, and document reviews (including Certified Material Test Report/Certificate). Acceptance actions/documents should be established by the Purchaser with appropriate input from the supplier and be completed to ensure that procurement, inspection, and test requirements, as applicable, have been satisfied before relying on the item to perform its intended safety function.
  • Controls are imposed for the selection, determination of suitability for intended use (critical characteristics), evaluation, receipt, and acceptance of commercial-grade services or items to assure they will perform satisfactorily in service in safety-related applications.
  • If there is insufficient evidence of implementation of a QA program, the initial evaluation is of the existence of a QA program addressing the scope of services to be provided. The initial audit is performed after the supplier has completed sufficient work to demonstrate that its organization is implementing a QA program.

The audit programs are themselves reviewed for effectiveness as a part of the overall audit process.

18.1 Performance of Audits Internal audits of selected aspects of licensing and design phase activities are performed with a frequency commensurate with safety significance and in a manner which assures that audits of safety-related activities are completed. During the early portions of the APR1400 DC activities, audits will focus on areas including, but not limited to, design control, procurement, and corrective action. Functional areas of an organization's QA program for auditing include, at a minimum, verification of compliance and effectiveness of implementation of internal rules, procedures (e.g.,

design, procurement, surveillance, and test), regulations, programs for training, retraining, qualification, and corrective actions, including associated record keeping.

The audits are scheduled on a formal preplanned audit schedule. The audit system is reviewed periodically and revised as necessary to assure coverage commensurate with current and planned activities. Additional audits may be performed as deemed necessary by management. The scope of the audit is determined by the quality status and safety importance of the activities being performed. These audits are conducted by trained personnel not having direct responsibilities in the area being audited and in accordance with preplanned and approved audit plans or checklists, under the direction of a qualified lead auditor and the cognizance of the GMQA.

KHNP is responsible for conducting periodic internal and external audits. Internal audits are conducted to determine the adequacy of programs and procedures (by representative sampling),

and to determine if they are meaningful and comply with the overall QAPD. External audits determine the adequacy of supplier quality assurance program.

The results of each audit are reported in writing to the Director General of KHNP Central Research Institute, or designee, as appropriate. Additional internal distribution is made to other concerned management levels in accordance with approved procedures.

Management responds to all audit findings and initiates corrective action where indicated. Where corrective action measures are indicated, documented follow-up of applicable areas through inspections, review, re-audits, or other appropriate means is conducted to verify implementation of assigned corrective action.

Audits of suppliers of safety-related components and/or services are conducted as described in Part II, Section 7.1 in this document.

18.2 Internal Audits Internal audits should be performed in such a manner as to assure that an audit of all applicable QA program elements is completed for each functional area at least once each year or at least once during the life of the activity, whichever is shorter.

Internal audits include verification of compliance and effectiveness of the administrative controls established for implementing the requirements of the QAPD; regulations and license provisions; provisions for training, retraining, qualification, and performance of personnel performing activities KOREA HYDRO & NUCLEAR POWER CO., LTD. 28
