ion procedures are written on a unit and station services level controlling the specifics of ion operations, including specifications; maintenance and modification; periodic test, ection, calibration, and special processes, and plant and equipment.
.1 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
.1.1 Conformance with Regulatory Guide 1.33 ulatory Guide 1.33, issued February 1978, Quality Assurance Program Requirements, is used uidance for the preparation of administrative and station procedures.
.1.2 Preparation of Procedures paration, review and approval of procedures is as described in the Quality Assurance Program cription (QAPD) Topical Report.
.1.3 Procedures ministrative control and station procedures cover a wide range of topics. Major areas are cribed as follows.
nding Orders to Operating Personnel ministrative control procedures define the authorities and responsibilities of operating onnel. The procedures specify the number of personnel with reactor operator and senior tor operator licenses required to be on site or at the controls in all plant conditions. The inistrative procedures direct the proper maintenance, review, and disposition of operating rds, establish requirements for shift turnover, and establish the authority and responsibilities he person in charge of the control room to limit access. Procedures also direct the assignment hift personnel to duty stations, establish limits for scheduled working hours, provide methods imely and concise feedback of operating experience to applicable plant staff, and describe hods used to verify operational activities are performed correctly. Plant procedures also vide for shift turnover such that all necessary information is properly transmitted to the oming shifts.
cial Orders of a Transient or Self-Cancelling Character ht orders are issued as necessary to provide guidance to operating shifts and are of a porary nature but will be incorporated into an administrative control if the need becomes manent.
28/18 12.5-1 Rev. 36
ructions are written to specify proper methods of obtaining clearances on plant equipment for ntenance or construction and to specify procedures for control of jumpers, inhibits, and wire oval. The clearance procedure assigns responsibility for clearance issue to the shift supervisor.
icensed operator, after ensuring he is aware of the effect of the activity on the system, is uired to authorize all maintenance, tests, and surveillances performed on plant systems. Upon pletion of the item, the document is returned to the operator for acceptance or for the purpose eturning the system to service. The administrative procedures which control these evolutions vide the required explicit notification of operational personnel whenever a safety related em is removed from and returned to service. The clearance procedure also contains certain rictions on the issuance of a clearance. The instructions for control of jumpers, inhibits, and e removal allow temporary alterations to critical structures, systems, or components to litate tests, maintenance, or operations. They specify administrative procedures to be followed erforming such alterations.
trol of Maintenance and Modifications ministrative control procedures implement the review and approval requirements for ntenance and modifications. These procedures include the control of plant modifications and ntenance on safety-related equipment. These procedures establish a framework of special cess and maintenance procedures.
ster Surveillance Testing Schedule administrative control procedure establishes a master test control list, implements the eillance test program, and assigns responsibility for review and approval of surveillance cedures in accordance with Technical Specifications. Written surveillance procedures are trolled as station or unit procedures.
cedures for Logbook Usage and Control administrative control procedure establishes the requirements for logbook usage and control.
ntenance and Testing of Safety-Related Systems cedures for maintenance and testing of safety-related systems specify that prior to the removal safety-related system from service, the redundant system is verified operable. For equipment requires specific surveillance in accordance with Technical Specifications, the surveillance ing is completed prior to removing the system from service.
se procedures are reviewed and improved, if necessary, to ensure operability of safety systems r to taking credit for the system(s) to satisfy Technical Specification requirements.
28/18 12.5-2 Rev. 36
cial procedures are prepared as necessary to support infrequently performed activities which not to be included in the permanent list of station procedures. A special procedure can be ten for any type of station procedure (i.e., maintenance, operating). The form of a special cedure is the same as the applicable type of station procedure. All requirements for review, roval, revisions, and changes are the same as for permanent station procedures.
.2 OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES rating and maintenance procedures are divided into several categories which are described in following subsections. The list of these procedures is contained in the Master Document ex.
rating and maintenance procedures preparation is the responsibility of the appropriate artment head. When a procedure is written, the applicable Department Head/Manager is onsible to forward the procedure for review and approval in accordance with the QAPD ical Report.
nt operations are performed in accordance with written and approved Station and Department cedures.
ependent position verification of safety-related components/systems (valves, breakers, and trol switches) with no indication in the control room are performed prior to the return-to-ice of the component/system.
5.2.1 Control Room Operating Procedures
.2.1.1 General Operating Procedures se procedures cover major plant evolutions. Step-by-step instructions are provided for the ction or task with the appropriate cross reference to system operating procedures for details of cific system operation. Appropriate precautions and limitations are included.
.2.1.2 System Operating Procedures se procedures provide step-by-step details for systems operations with appropriate equisites, precautions, limitations, and alarm responses. Each procedure covers the expected des of operation of the system as well as startup, shutdown, filling and venting, and standby ration as applicable.
