A.3.

The NRC reviews the Final Safety /.nalysis Report prior to recommcoding for or against an operating licensee.

The NRC reviews ins,nection logs to ascertain that questions which arose during inspections conducted during construction have been satisfactorily resolved.

During routine inspections, NRC inspectors examine various types of docunents that are required by ANSI STD N45.2.9 which may or cay not be final documents.

Exetples of such documents are described in the inspection reports.

A.4.

Design change control, including checks to reconfirm design and safety adequacy, and construction inspection to verify field implementation of the change, is the responsibility of the Applicant. The NRC inspections varify that such activities are subject to control in accordance with the quality assurance program dcscribed in the SAR.

B.l.

The Office of Inspection and Enforcement (IE) has reviewed c~onstruction details to ascertain that they reflect the applicable design details, including applicable changes current at the time of the inspection.

Governing quality requirements and procedures were ccnsidered.

Such reviews are conducted as part of every inspection, with few exceptions.

Such reviews are part of the routine IE activities to assess the implementation of the quality assurance program described in the SAR.

Full details of these activities are summarized in the IE inspection reports. We have providad a ccpy of these inspection reports to the County's consultants.

No, However, portions of various systems have been inspected.

h

. 5.3.

The IE inspectors have routinely e.vmined SEcrehaa related records to ascertain that the system of deviation and change control is functioning as described in the SAR. This includes revicu of t"pical change docu...:nts such as E&DCRs, and related a chitect-engineer quality control inspection reports. Where d awings '..ere revie'. led, the inspectors reviewed the editicn and changes applicable at the time of the inspection, and ascertained that t'e architect-engincer quality control inspection records referenced the applicable editions and changes.

Further, subsequent changes to design and mociated construction are expected to be controlled in accordance with the qualit" assurance program and are not prohibited.

IE inspectors do not inspect every change document.

IE inspectors sample these docu.aents to assure that tne Applicant is properly controlling the design

~

changes.

3.4.

IE has not rated general contractors on site cleanliness and general i.o ral e.

There are no regulatory requirements regarding morale; however, some regulatory requirements exist regarding site cleanliness which all Applicants must meet.

B.S.

We cannot respond to this question because we do not compare the efforts of Applicants and architect-engineers.

IE inspectors inspect Applicants and their representativer against regulatory requirements and QA/QC requiremants, which requirer.ents must be met.

'h'1ile therI is no for:ral pr. gram to cc.rpare the performance of Applicants 3.6.

i pnd their representatives, the experience of an inspector at other sites may assist him in identifying potential pecblem areas during an inspection.
