SilIFT SUPERVISOR RESPONSIBILITIES (2.2.1.a)
SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 1 RESPONSE l
SUMMARY
i The requirements are to be implemented by OL for SNP unit 1.
The duties of the shift supervisor, as discussed in NUREG-0578, are performed by the assistant shift engineer on each unit. The V.P. for Operations is the Manager of Power Operations.
SRO training is specified in the SNP FSAR 13.2 which meets the intent of section 5.2.1.8.
l
RESPONSE
I 1.
TVA's administrative procedures, shif t supervisor job descriptions, and training programs emphasize the primary management responsibility of the shift engineer.
In addition, periodic retraining acts to reinforce his command responsibilities. While these existing measures provide a high level of confidence that the shift supervisor has primary management responsibility for safe operation of the plant, TVA will periodically issue a management directive which emphasizes l
this assignment of responsibility.
2a.
Plant administrative procedures have been reviewed to ensure that they clearly define the authority and responsibilities of each position on shift. The duties and respeasibilities of the shif t supervisor, as specified in the job description, are consistent with position statement 2a.
Refer to pages 85a through 85g(a) for Administrative Instruction AI-2 which includes the shift supervisor's (Assistant Shift Engineer) responsibility.
Refer to pages 85g(b) through 85g(v) for Administrative Instruction AI-5 which addresses command responsibility.
2b.
The shif t crew in TVA, plants consists of the following:
(1) a shift engineer who has an SRO license and who has overall respon-sibility for the plant when higher level "in-line" management personnel are not present, (2) an assistant shift engineer (also has an SRO license) for each unit who has supervisory responsibility for all normal, abnormal, and emergency activities on his assigned unit, (3) a unit operator (with an R0 license) for each unit, and (4) other personnel as appropriate.
The duties of the shift supervisor as discussed.in NUREG-0578 are performed by the assistant shift engineer on each unit.
For purposes of our responses, we will use the term assistant shift engineer for shift supervisor.
I The assistant shift engineer's normal work station is in the control room, but he periodically makes inspections of plant equipment.
lie will immediately go to the control room during emergency situa tions.
1773 209, d[iil 1,I
""3
1 He remains in the control room at all times during accident situations to direct the activities of the unit operator unless formally relieved of this function by the shif t engineer. The shift engineer may, in turn, be formally relieved by the assistant operations superviser or the operations supervisor (both also hold an SRO license).

-84^-
2c.
In the " event that the assistant shif t engineer (shif t supervisor) is absent, the unit operator will be the lead operator on the unit to which he is assigned. For multiple unit plants, an additional licensed operator will be available in the control complex to act as as assistant to the unit operator in abnormal or emergency situationc. The line of command is clearly specified in administra-tive procedures.
3.
The shift engineer and assistant shift engineers will receive such training.
4.
The administrative duties of the shif t supervisor will be reviewed by the senior officer of TVA responsible for plant operations.
Administrative functions that detract f rom or are cabordinate to ensuring safe operation of the plant will be assigned to other employees. The following actions have already been taken:
1.
A clerk has been assigned to the shif t engineer's office on each shift to perform administrative details formerly done by the shif t engineer.
2.
Part of the routine "non-management" duties of the assistant shift engineer have been assigned to other employees.
CLARIFICATION Refer to pages 85a through 85g(v) for the Adninistrative Instructions regarding authorities and responsibilities for safe operation and shutdown of Sequoyah units 1 and 2.
Refer to pages 85h through 85o for job descriptions of the shift engineer, assistant shift engineer, unit operator and assistant unit operator.

A normal startup or shutdown does not constitute an abnormal condition...
Only persons holding a senior reactor operator license has the authority tof ~
direct the unit operator performing operations that affect power level or core reactivity.
Management or technical non-licensed persons providing plant support functions in his field of expertise may make recommendations to the licensed operator concerning licensed activities; however, this in no way relieves the licensed person of his responsibility for performing or supervising licensed activities.
The shif t engineer may be relieved by the assistant operations supervisor or operations supervisor who hold a senior reactor operator license.
Ultimate responsibility for safe operation of the plant and compliance with all license requirements lies with the plant superintendent.
(9) Maintaining Cognizance of Operational Status:
(a) System configuration control of CSSC equipment - Systems shall be aligned according to applicable valve, instrumentation, and power availability checklists for the desired operational mode.
The most recent checklists, i.e., desired configuration, shall remain in the. System Status Files in the Unit Control Room.
Deviations from these checklists shall be permitted af ter ascertaining the effect of the deviation on Technical Specifications and safety to personnel and equipment. These deviations shall be recorded and also filed in the System Status Files.
(b) Essential Instrumentation - Prior to unit startup essential instru-mentation, as defined in GOI-lE, will be made operable and documented in applicable General and System Operating instructions. The Instrument Maintenance Supervisor or his representative shall make available to the Shift Engineer a listing of any escential instrumentation not in service.
Removal of essential instrumentation f rom service shall be permitted af ter ascertaining the ef fect on Technical Specification and plant operations.

SQNP Al-5 Page 1 of 3 Rev. 4 SIIIFT AND RELIEF TURNOVER 1.0 PURPOSE To provide instructions for distribution of shif t employee schedules (bulletined hours of work) and requirements of personnel during periods of relief or shift turnover.
Routine shift work will be performed by persons such as operators, health physics technicians, chemical laboratory analysts and public se.fety officers.
Non-routineshiftworkmayberequiredforsomemaintenanceactivitiesort$kkin8-These activities may require shift work by personnel from onsite maintenance, TVA test engineers, off-site maintenance, or equipment vendor representatives.
2.0 ROUTINE SilIFT WORK 2.1 Schedule distribution and changes:
Copies of routine employee shift work schedules shall be distributed to the shif t engineer and public safety. These may be used to identify duty personnel for the shift engineer and provide information to PSS as to who is scheduled to be on site on back shifts and holidays.
2.2 Shift Relief 2.2.1 The individual being relieved is responsible for passing on all pertinent information concerning work under his jurisdiction to his relief. lie shall bring particular attention to abnormalities which have occured or exist and significant journal entries. lie shall retain the responsibilities of the job until he has fully informed his relief of the status of all equipment under his jurisdiction.
2.2.2 Persons assigned to jobs shall remain on them until properly re-lieved by someone of equal or higher classification o_r_ released by his supervisor.
2.2.3 Temporary relief by operations personnel during an assigned shift may be required.
Iloweve r, these reliefs shall be limited in duration and f requency to that of absolute necessity. When temp-orary relief is necessary, the person being relieved shall acquaint the oncoming person with job information such as any abnormal or unusual conditions existing, any actions anticipated during his absence, and where he may be reached in the plant during bis absence. Temporary relief as described here does not require completions of Appendix A and B.
1773 221 85 (c) 8
SQNP AI-5 Page 2 of 3 Rev. 4 2.2.4 Operators (all classifications) - Transfer of Authority and Responsibility: Oncoming oper-ting personnel shall be responsible to acquaint themselves with the equipment status and any act-ivities under their jurisdiction before assuming the duty for the shift.

SHIFT AND RELIEF TURNOVER PROCEDURES (2.2.1.c)
SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 1 RESPONSE
SUMMARY
The new shift and relief turnover procedures have been developed and will be implemented for fuel load.
RESPONSE
TVA has developed and will implement shift and relief turnover procedures which provide assurance that the oncoming shift possesses adequate knowledge of critical plant status information and system availability.
Administrative Instruction AI-5 addresses shift and relief turnover procedures.
(Refer to pages 85g(h) through 85g(v)).
A checklist or similar hard copy will be completed and signed'by offgoing and oncoming shifts at each shift turnover.
This checklist includes critical plant parameters and allowable limits, availability and proper alignment of safety systems, and a listing of safety system components in a degraded mode along with the length of time in that mode.
All shift personnel responsible for the status of critical equipment have relief checklists for oncoming and offgoing shifts that will include any core cooling equipment under maintenance or test that could degrade a safety system.
In addition, a system will be established to evaluate the effectiveness of the turnover procedures.
This checklist is included in Administrative Instruction Al-5.

CONTROL ROOM ACCESS (2.2.2.a)
SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 1 RESPONSE SUMfARY The new procedures have been developed and will be implemented for fuel load.
RESPONSE
TVA has developed and will implement plant specific administrative procedures that establish specific individual authority and responsibility as well as delineate various system or equipment functions related to controlling per-sonnel access during normal and accident conditions. A control room access plan has been developed to provide direction to all atmbers of the plant staff to ensure that those persons responsible for safe operation of the plant are able to perform effectively.
Refer to pages 85a through 85g(a) l for Administrative Instruction AI-2.
In addition, TVA has developed and will implement procedures that establish a clear line of authority and responsibility in the control room in the i
event of an emergency.
These procedures clearly define the lines of com-munication and authority for plant management personnel and ensure that the shift supervisor, his assistant, or senior licensed management personnel are the only plant personnel who have the authority to direct licensed activities of licensed reactor operators.
