3. DESIGN CONTROL 3 1

. The design, modification, addition, and replacement of safety-related structures, systems, and components shall be controlled to assure appropriate design control measures are implemented. Procedures, Design Guides and Policies shall establish requirements; assign responsibilities; and provide control of activities regarding design in a planned, controlled, and orderly manner.

3.2 The Plant design is defined by those N$SS, AlE and selected supplier design drawings and specifications which illustrate the general arrangement and details of safety-related structures, systems, and components and define the requirements for assuring their continued capability to perform their intended operational or safety design function.

3.3 As the result of operating experience, or as necessitated by regulatory requirements, Plant systems and equipment may have to be changed. Design changes and configuration changes are modifications in Plant design or operation and are accomplished in accordance with requirements and limitations of applicable codes, standards, specifications, licenses, and predetermined safety restrictions.

3.3.1 A design change is a modification where a function changes or a new failure mode is introduced.

3.3.2 A configuration change is a change in configuration that can be either physical or in documentation that preserves the design functions and does not introduce new failure modes. This includes a change to the configuration ofa replacement item which is not a like-for-like replacement ofthe present design.

3.4 Maintenance or modifications which may affect functioning of safety-related structures, systems, or components shall be performed in a manner to ensure quality at least equivalent to that specified in original design bases and requirements, materials specifications and inspection requirements. A suitable level of confidence in structures, systems, or components on which maintenance or modifications have been performed shall be attained by appropriate inspection and performance testing.

3.5 Design, including related procurement efforts, may be carried out by Nuclear Engineering, Fuel Cycle Management Department, or outside organizations.

3.6 Control ofdesign shall be specified in procedures, design guides and policies. These documents shall include instructions for defining typical design requirements; communicating needed design information across internal and external interfaces; preparing, reviewing, approving, releasing, distributing, revising, and maintaining design documents; performing design reviews and reviews of design; and controlling field changes.

3.7 Design control shall involve measures which include a definition ofdesign requirements; a design process which includes design analysis and delineation of requirements through the issuance of drawings, specifications, and other design documents (design outputs); and design verification or review of design to verify the adequacy of design or to become acquainted with design features.

Page 1 of4

SECTION NO. 3 Amerell REVISION: 033a MISSOURI CALLAWAY ENERGY CENTER 06/19 OPERA TING QUALITYASSURANCE MANUAL 3.8 Design requirements and changes thereto shall be identified, documented, reviewed and approved to assure incorporation of appropriate quality standards in design documents and to control departures from these standards. Modifications to structures, systems, and components shall consider, as a minimum, the design bases described in the Callaway-SP and the Callaway-SA FSAR and the Technical Specifications. Design criteria documents, which are newly issued or modified in the course of design or design/configuration changes, shall be reviewed by a Supervising Engineer in Engineering Design or Projects for seismic and quality group classification and selection of quality standards. Design criteria documents consist of original Plant design criteria, system descriptions and other documents defining design input which changes the Plant as described in the FSAR. The design input shall be specified on a timely basis and to the level of detail necessary to permit the design activity to be carried out in a correct manner and provide a consistent basis for making design decisions, accomplishing design verification measures, and evaluating design changes.

3.9 Design activities shall include the correct translation ofregulatory requirements and design bases into specifications, drawings, written procedures, and instructions (design outputs) that define the design. Design analyses regarding reactor physics, stress, thermal, hydraulic, radiation, and accident analyses used to produce design output documents, shall be sufficiently detailed to permit an independent review by a technically qualified person. Analyses shall specify purpose, method, assumptions, design requirements, references, and units. When computer codes are employed, only codes that have been verified and/or validated (V&V) shall be used in safety-related design and design/configuration changes.

3 10

. Procedures shall specify requirements for the review and approval of design changes by the organizations or individuals that performed the original design or Engineering Design or Projects. Design control activities, including design/configuration changes, may be delegated to others provided they have access to background and technical information. Design control measures for design revisions shall be commensurate with those applied to the original design.

3 11

. Design activities shall also include: 1) reviewing the applicability of standards; 2) reviewing commercial or previously approved materials, parts or equipment for suitability of application; 3) reviewing the compatibility of materials used in the design; 4) reviewing the accessibility of equipment and components for inservice inspection, maintenance, and repair; 5) specifying criteria for inspection and test/retest; and

6) reviewing and approving procedures for special processes.

3 12

. The design process shall establish controls for releasing design documents which are technically adequate and accurate in a controlled manner with a timely distribution to responsible individuals and groups. Design control procedures govern the design documents that reflect the commitments of the FSAR, which include, but are not limited to, calculations, computer programs, FSAR system descriptions, SAR when used as a design document, and drawings including piping and instrument diagrams, control logic diagrams, electrical single line diagrams, structural systems for major facilities, site arrangements, and equipment locations.

Engineering change control procedures also establish controls for maintaining other as-built drawings, such as flow diagrams, and for maintaining software configuration. Procurement specifications are maintained in accordance with Section 4. Documents are controlled and used in accordance with Section 6.

. The design interfaces between Ameren Missouri organizations performing work affecting quality of design and between Ameren Missouri and outside organizations shall be identified and controlled by procedures.

These procedures shall address control of the interface, responsibilities, lines of communication, and documentation of internal and external interface activities.

3. 14 Design changes and calculations shall include design verification. Configuration change shall include a design review. Design verification assures that design is adequate and meets specified design inputs.

Design control procedures shall specify requirements for the selection and accomplishment of a design Verification program. The program depth shall be commensurate with the importance of the system or component to safety, complexity of the design, and similarity ofthe design to previously proven designs.

Design verification shall be conducted in accordance with procedures, which identify the responsibilities of the verifier and the documentation required and which, through adherence to the procedures, provide for the identification of the areas, features, and pertinent considerations to be verified. Design verification shall be by either design review, alternate calculation, qualification testing, or by a combination of these. Where alternate calculations are performed to verify the correctness of a calculation, a review shall be performed to address the appropriateness of assumptions, input data, and the code or other calculation method used.

Arneren Missouri shall perform reviews of design of selected documents for subcontracted design to become familiar with design features. An independent third-level review must be employed as an additional verification when Ameren Missouri judges that the design involves unique or special design features. The organization performing design shall have the responsibility for design control unless specified otherwise.

Design verification shall be performed by competent personnel other than those who performed the original design and who shall not have specified a singular design approach, have ruled out certain design considerations, or have established the design inputs for the particular design aspect being verified. A designers supervisor may perform design verification when this individual isthc only technically qualified individual and in such instances the need for design verification by the designers immediate supervisor shall be individually documented and approved in advance by the supervisors nunagement. Nuclear Oversight Department audits shall examine the frequency and the effectiveness of use of supervisors as design verifiers to guard against abuse.

3. 15 Design verification, if other than by qualification testing of a prototype or lead production unit, shall be completed prior to release for procurement, manufacturing, construction or to another organization for use in other design activities. In those cases where this timing cannot be met, the design verification may be deferred, providing thejustification for this action is documented and the portions of the design output documents based on the unverified data are appropriately identified and controlled. Without verification, site activities associated with a design or design change must not proceed past the point where the installation would become irreversible (i.e., require extensive demolition and rework). The design verification shall be complete prior to relying upon the component, system, or structure to perform its safety-related function.

3.16 Action shall be initiated to correct errors found in the design process. Errors and deficiencies identified in approved design documents shall be documented and the process of their correction (i.e., review and approval) shall be controlled. These actions shall assure that changes to design or installed components are controlled.

3 17

. Requests for design/configuration changes affecting safety-related structures, systems, and components may be originated by Nuclear Generation personnel. Design changes shall be processed by Engineering.

Design/configuration changes engineered by Nuclear Engineering organizations shall be the responsibility of Nuclear Engineering. Design/configuration changes engineered by the Fuel Cycle Management Department shall be the responsibility of Fuel Cycle Management.

SECTION NO. 3 Amerell REVISION: 033a MISSOURI CALLAWAY ENERGY CENTER DATE: 06/19 OPERATING QUALITYASSURANCEMANUAL

3. 18 Independent of the responsibilities of the design organization, the requirements of the Onsite Review Committee (ORC) as defined in OQAM Section 1.0 shall be satisfied.

Safety Related Design changes shall be reviewed by the ORC and approved by the Senior Director, Nuclear Operations. In addition, design/configuration changes that require a change in the Callaway Plant Technical CN 19-001 Specifications, a License Amendment per 10CFR5O.59, or an NRC CoC Amendment per 10CFR72.48 require review the ORC. (NRC approval of the License Amendment is required orior to imnlementation of the design/configuration change.).

When design is performed by an outside organization, Ameren Missouri shall perform or coordinate a review of the design for operability, maintainability, inspectability, FSAR commitment compatibility, test and inspection acceptance criteria acceptability, and design requirements imposed by Plant generating equipment.

3.19 10CFR5O.59 and 10CFR72.48 evaluations, which consider the effect ofthe design as described in the design documents, shall be performed by the responsible Ameren Missouri engineering organization or outside organization(s). These evaluations shall include the basis for the determination that the design/configuration change does not involve prior NRC approval via a License Amendment or CoC Amendment.

18. AUDITS 18 1. A comprehensive audit program shall be established and implemented by Ameren Missouri to verify internal and external quality activities compliance with the OQAP. The audit program shall assure that all applicable elements of the Program have been developed, documented, and are being effectively implemented and shall provide for the reporting and review of audit results by management. The audit system is described in manuals and procedures. Nonconformances and program deficiencies shall be identified and corrective action shall be initiated and verified. See Section 3. 14 for a specific audit topic.

1 8.2 The Ameren Missouri audit system shall include the performance of audits and surveillances by the Nuclear Oversight (NOS) Department. Audits determine, through investigation, the adequacy of and adherence to established procedures, instructions, specifications, codes, and other applicable contractual and licensing requirements and the effectiveness of implementation. Surveillances involve the periodic or continuous monitoring of the operation or performance of a supplier, item, component, or system. Surveillance in this audit sense should not be confused with inspections for the purpose ofprocess control or product acceptance or with requirements relating to test, calibration or inspection to assure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained, that facility operations are within the safety limits, and that limiting conditions ofoperations are being met (surveillance tests). NOS personnel performing surveillances should be familiar with the area to be surveilled and the applicable implementing procedure(s) governing surveillances. Surveillances may also be performed by personnel from other organizations, but these require no unique personnel qualifications or certifications (except when performed for product acceptance).

See Sections 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 11.10, 11.11, 11.12, and 18.4.

18.3 The Director, Nuclear Oversight shall establish a program which provides for the qualification and training ofNOS Department audit and surveillance personnel. Audits shall be directed by an Audit Team Leader (ATL) who is a certified Lead Auditor. A Lead Auditor is an individual certified as qualified to direct an audit, perform an audit, report audit findings, and to evaluate corrective action. Other personnel may assist Lead Auditors in the conduct of audits; namely, technical specialists, management representatives, auditors and other Lead Auditors. The persons having direct responsibility for performance of the activities being audited shall not be involved in the selection of the audit team. Personnel selected for NOS auditing or surveillance assignments shall have training or experience commensurate with the scope, complexity, or special nature of the activities to be reviewed or investigated and shall have no direct responsibility for the area being evaluated. The NOS personnel training program shall provide general orientation and specific training which develop competence for performing audits or surveillances. Training records shall provide a history ofNOS personnel training, evaluations, qualification, certifications, and retraining.

18.4 NOS Department personnel who perform audit and surveillance activities shall be qualified in accordance with the requirements prescribed in NOS Department procedures. Lead Auditor qualification requirements shall include education or professional status, previous work experience or training, training received through Ameren Missouri, on-the-job perfonnance and participation in surveillances or audits as an auditor, a qualification examination, and other factors applicable to auditing not defined by procedure. The qualification certification of Lead Auditors shall be based on an evaluation of these factors by the Director, Nuclear Oversight. The maintenance ofproficiency by Lead Auditors shall be accomplished by active participation in the audit process; a review of program, codes, standards, procedures and other document revisions related to the OQAP; or participation in training programs. The Director, Nuclear Oversight shall provide for annual assessments of each Lead Auditor to determine proficiency. As long as a Lead Auditor is performing satisfactorily and is maintaining proficiency, there is no limit on the period of certification. However if at any time the Lead Auditors performance is evaluated as being unacceptable, Lead Auditor certification shall be rescinded. In addition the failure to maintain proficiency for a period of two years or more shall be basis for Lead Auditor certification revocation. If certification is rescinded or revoked, requalification shall be required prior to recertification.

g APPENDIX A Arnerefl MISSOURI REVISION: 033a CALLAWAY ENERGY CENTER DATE: 06/19 OPERA TING QUALITYASSURANCE MANUAL When Ameren Missouri intends for Inspection to be performed in accordance with the Operating QA Program by personnel certified as required by that Program and for activities defined by Inspection in ANSI N45.2.1O, appropriate references to QC group or the procedures to be used for performing the activity shall be made. If such references are NOT made, inspections are to be considered under the additional definition given above.

In addition to the Standards definition of procurement documents, Ameren Missouri shall utilize the definition given in ANSI N45.2.13. The compound definition is given as follows: Procurement documents Contractually binding documents that identify and define the requirements which items or services must meet in order to be considered acceptable by the purchaser. They may include documents which authorize the seller to perform services or supply equipment, material or facilities on behalf of the purchaser (e.g. Engineering Service Agreement agreements for engineering, construction, or consulting services), contracts, letters ofintent, purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or proposals and their acceptance, drawings, specifications, or instruction which define requirements for purchase.

Bids Supplier quotation submitted in response to specified technical and quality requirements for which price and delivery are primary considerations.

Proposals Supplier offerings that define the scope of supply as well as specific technical and quality requirements for a product or service. Such offerings usually require negotiation prior to acceptance as either a purchase order, contract, or Engineering Service Agreement.

Program Deficiencies (Not defined in ANSI N45.2.lO, but used and defined differently in Regulatory Guide 1.144 (ANSI N45.2.12)) failure to develop, document or implement effectively any applicable element ofthe Operating QA Program.

Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Not defined in ANSI N45.2.1O but used and defined differently in ANSI N45.2. 1 3) Those individual requirements ofthe Operating QA Program which, when invoked in total or in part, establish the requirements ofthe quality assurance program for the activity being controlled. Although not specifically used in the Operating QA Program, ANSI N45.2 may be imposed upon Ameren Missouris suppliers.

Independent Verification Verification by an individual other than the person who performed the operation or activity being verified that required actions have been completed. Such verification need not require confirmation ofthe identical action when other indications provide assurance or indication that the prescribed activity is in fact complete. Examples include, but are not limited to: verification ofa breaker opening by observed remote breaker indication lights; verification of a set point (made with a voltmeter or ammeter for example) by observing the actuation of status or indicating lights at the required Panel-meter indicated value; verification that a valve has been positioned by observing the starting or stopping of flow on meter indications or by remote value positions indicating lights.

Audit (This is a modification ofthe words definition to allow the use ofsubjective evidence ifno evidence is available as defined in Section 1.4 ofANSI N45.2.12 1977 (Regulatory Guide 1.144) and Section 1.4.3 ofANSI N45.2.23 1978 (Regulatory Guide 1 146) as opposed to the definition given in ANSI N45.2. 10 1973) A documented activity performed in accordance with written procedures or checklists to verify, by examination and evaluation of objective evidence where available, (subjective evidence may be used when objective evidence is not available), that applicable elements of the Q uality Assurance Program have been developed, documented and effectively implemented in accordance with specified requirements. An audit should not be confused with surveillance or inspection for the sole purpose ofprocess control or product acceptance.

REGULATORY GUIDE 1.88 REVISION 2 DATED 10/76 Collection, Storage, and Maintenance ofNuclear Power Plant Quality Assurance Records (Endorses ANSI N45.2.9-1974)

DISCUSSION:

Ameren Missouri complies with the recommendations ofthis Regulatory Guide with the following clarifications:

With regard to Section 3.2.1 ofANSI N45.2.9 1974 titled Generation ofQuality Assurance Records: The phrase completely filled out is clarified to mean that sufficient information is recorded to fulfill the intended purpose of the record. It is the information, not the form, that is the record. Thus the information, not the form, needs to be complete to furnish documented evidence of activities affecting quality.

With regard to Section 3.2.2 ofANSI N45.2.9 1974 titled pi: The phrase an index is clarified to mean a collection of documents or indices which, when taken together, supply the information attributed to an index in the Standard.

The specific location of a record within a storage area may not be delineated. (e.g. The specific location within a computer record file may not be constant. Further, Ameren Missouri may utilize a computer assisted random access filing system where such location could not be readily documented, or would such a location be relevant.) The storage location shall be delineated, but where file locations change with time, the specific location ofa record within that file may not always be documented.

With regard to Section 4.2 ofANSI N45.2.9 1974 titled Timeliness: Ameren Missouris contractual agreement with its contractors and suppliers shall constitute fulfillment ofthe requirements ofthis Section.

With regard to Section 5.3.3 ofANSI N45.2.9-1974: The phrase A method for verifying that the records received are in agreement with the transmittal document . . . , is clarified to mean that internal Callaway Plant generated records received are in agreement with procedural guidelines contained in Callaway Plant Administrative procedures. Ifa transmittal does exist (e.g. on supplier-generated documents, etc.), the records received will be verified against the transmittal document.

The following clarification is substituted for the current subsection 5.4.3: Provisions shall be made for special processed records (such as radiographs, photographs, negatives, microfilm and magnetic media) to prevent damage from excessive Page 18 of2S

fflCfl?II iuvisior:

MISSOURI CALLAWAY ENERGY CENTER DATE: 06/19 OPERA TING QUALITYASSURANCE MANUAL light, stacking, electromagnetic fields, temperature and humidity as appropriate to the records type. Consideration shall be given to manufacturers recommendation.

With regard to Section 5.5 ofANSI N45.2.9 1974 titled Safekeeping: Routine General Offices and Plant site security systems and access controls shall be provided: no special security systems are required to be established for record storage areas.

With regard to Section 5.6 ofANSI N45.2.9 1974 titled Facility: This Section provides no distinction between temporary and permanent facilities. To cover temporary storage, the following clarification is added: Active records (those completed but not yet duplicated or placed on microfilm) may be temporarily stored in one-hour fire rated file cabinets. In general, records shall not be maintained in such temporary storage for more than three months after completion without being duplicated (for dual storage),-being placed on microfilm or optical disk. Open-ended documents --those revised or updated on a more-or-less continuing basis over an extended period oftime (e.g. personnel qualification and training documents, equipment history cards, master audit or master surveillance schedules) and those which are cumulative in nature (e.g. nonconforming item logs and control room log books)-- are not considered as QA records since they are not complete. These types ofdocurnents shall become QA records when they are issued as a specific revision (e.g., the master audit schedule); when they are filled-up or discontinued (e.g. log books or equipment history cards); on a predefined periodic basis when the completed portion ofthe on-going document shall be transferred to document control as a record (e.g. training and qualification records).

Paragraph 4, subsection 3 is clarified to require a two-hour minimum fire rating to be consistent with the 1 979 version of the Standard and NRC Criteria for Records Storage facilities (Guidance-ANSI N45.2.9, Section 5.6) issued 7/1/80.

Paragraph 4, subsection 9 is clarified to read:

No pipes or penetrations except those providing fire protection, lighting, temperature/ humidity control, or communications are to be located within the facility and they shall comply with a minimum two-hour fire protection rating.

Where duplicate storage is employed, no special precautions or provisions (including vault storage, special humidity and temperature recorders and similar items) are required.

Paragraph 5 is clarified to read the same as our commitment to subsection 5.4.3. Both paragraphs address the same requirement and therefore the commitment must be the same.

With regard to Section 5.7 ofANSI N45.2.9-1974 titled Audits: These specific activities in sub-sections 1, 2 and 3 are accomplished through the establishment of administrative controls by the responsible management.

Audits ofthese administrative controls are performed in accordance with this OQAM, Section 1 8 and commitments to Reg. Guide 1.144 in this Appendix.

The 90-day grace period may be applied to this activity.

Supplier Evaluation Section C.3.b.(2) ofReg. Guide I .144, Revision 1 states that documented evaluations be performed annually. The 90-day grace period may be applied to this activity.

When procuring commercial grade calibration or testing services from a laboratory holding accreditation by an accrediting body recognized by the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA), the accreditation process and accrediting body may be credited with carrying out a portion ofthe Purchasers duties of verifying acceptability and effective implementation of the calibration or testing service laboratorys quality assurance program.

lieu ofperforming commercial grade survey or accepting a commercial grade survey performed by another licensee, a In documented review ofthe laboratorys accreditation is performed which includes a verification ofthe following:

1 . The calibration or test laboratory holds accreditation by an accrediting body recognized by the ILAC MRA.

CN 19-003 The accreditation encompasses ISO/IEC-17025:2005 or I$O/IEC-17025:2017, General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories.

1IAffleIBfl REVISION: 033a MISSOURI CALLAWAY ENERGY CENTER DATE: 06/19 OPERATING QUALITYASSURANCE MANUAL With regard to Section 3.3 ofANSI N452. 12 1977 titled Essential Elements ofthe Audit System: Ameren Missouri shall comply with subsection 3.3.5 as it was originally written (subsection 3.2.5) in ANSI N45.2.12, Draft 3, Revision 4:

Provisions for reporting on the effectiveness of the Quality Assurance Program to the responsible management. For the auditing organization (Ameren Missouri), effectiveness shall be reported as required by OQAM Section 18. Other than audit reports, Ameren Missouri may not directly report on the effectiveness of the quality assurance programs to the audited organization when such organizations are outside of Ameren Missouri.

Subsection 3.3.6 requirements are considered to be fulfilled by compliance with the organization and reporting measures outlined in this OQAM. In every case either identical or equivalent controls are provided in the sections of the referenced documents.

Subsection 3.3.7 requires verification ofeffective corrective action on a timely basis.

Verification ofthe implementation ofcorrective action is performd as indicated in Section 16 ofthis OQAM. Corrective action program effectiveness is determined through audit or surveillance as described in Section 18 ofthis OQAM, using previously issued corrective action documents as input to the scope of audits and surveillances. Additionally, trending of corrective action documents will be used to reveal potentially ineffective corrective actions and the effectiveness of the corrective action program.

With regard to Section 3.4 ofANSI N45.2.12-1977 titled Audit Planning: Identical or equivalent controls are provided in this OQAM, Section 18.

With regard to Section 3.5 ofANSI N45.2. 12 1977 titled Scheduling: Identical or equivalent controls are provided in this OQAM, Section 1 8 for the requirements of Subsections 3 .5. 1 and 3 .5.2. Subsection 3 .5.3 .1 is interpreted to mean that Ameren Missouri may procedurally control qualification of a contractors or suppliers quality assurance program prior to awarding a contract or purchase order by means other than audit. The measures outlined in Sections 4 and 7 ofthis OQAM address the requirements of Subsection 3.5.3.1.

With regard to Section 4.3. 1 ofANSI N45.2. 12 1977 titled Pre-Audit Conference: Ameren Missouri shall comply with requirements ofthis Section by inserting the word Normally at the beginning ofthe first sentence. This clarification is required because, in the case of certain unannounced audits or audits of a particular operation or work activity, a pre-audit conference might interfere with the spontaneity ofthe operation or activity being audited. In other cases, persons who should be present at a pre-audit conference may not always be available: such lack of availability should not be an impediment to beginning an audit. Even in the above examples, which are not intended to be all inclusive, the material set forth in Section 4.3. 1 shall normally be covered during the course ofthe audit.

With regard to Section 4.3.2 ofANSI N45.2. 12 - 1977 titled Audit Process:

(a) Subsection 4.3.2.2 could be interpreted to limit auditors to the review ofonly objective evidence; sometimes and for some Program elements, no objective evidence may be available. Ameren Missouri shall comply with an altemate sentence which reads: When available, objective evidence shall be examined for compliance with Quality Assurance Program requirements. If subjective evidence is used (e.g. personal interviews, direct observations by the auditor),

then the audit report must indicate how the evidence was obtained.

( b) Subsection 4.3.2.4 is modified as follows to take into account the fact that some nonconformances are virtually obvious with respect to the needed corrective action: When a nonconformance or Quality Assurance Program deficiency is identified as a result ofan audit, unless the apparent cause, extent, and corrective action are readily Page 25 of 28

ip APPENDIX A AmerMISSOURI efl REVISION: 033a CALLAWAY ENERGY CENTER DATE: 06/19 OPERA TING QUALITY ASSURANCE MANUAL evident, further investigation shall be conducted by the audited organization in an effort to identify the cause and effect and to determine the extent of the corrective action required.

(c) Subsection 4.3 .2.5 contains a recommendation which is clarified with the definition of acknowledged by a member of the audited organization to mean that a member ofthe audited organization has been informed ofthe findings.

Agreement or disagreement with a finding may be expressed in the response from the audited organization.

(d) Subsection 4.3.2.6 is modified as follows to account for the fact that immediate notification is not always possible:

Conditions requiring immediate corrective action (i.e. those which are so severe that any delay would be undesirable) shall be reported immediately to the audited organization and as soon as practical to the management thereof.

With regard to Section 4.3.3 ofANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Post-Audit Conference: Ameren Missouri shall substitute and comply with the following paragraph:

For external audits, a post-audit conference shall be held with management ofthe audited organization to present audit findings and clarify misunderstandings; where no adverse findings exist, this conference may be waived by management ofthe audited organization: such waiver shall be documented in the audit report. Unless unusual operating or maintenance conditions preclude attendance by appropriate managers/supervisors, a post-audit conference shall be held with managers/supervisors for internal audits for the same reasons as above. Again, ifthere are no adverse findings, management ofthe internal audited organization may waive the post-audit conference: such waiver shall be documented in the audit report.

With regard to Section 4.4 ofANSI N45.2. 12 - 1977 titled Reporting:

(a) This Section requires that the audit report shall be signed by the Audit Team Leader (ATL); this is not always the most expeditious route to take to assure that the audit report is issued as soon as practical. Ameren Missouri shall comply with Section 4.4 as clarified in the following opening:

An audit report, which shall be signed by the Audit Team Leader (ATL), or the ATLs supervisor in the ATLs absence, shall provide: . . .

In cases where the audit report is not signed by the ATL due to absence, one record copy ofthe report must be signed by the ATL upon return. The report shall not require the ATLs review/concurrence/signature ifthe ATL is no longer employed by Ameren Missouri at the time the audit report is issued.

(b) Ameren Missouri shall comply with subsection 4.4.3 clarified to read: Supervisory level personnel with whom significant discussions were held during the course ofpre-audit (where conducted) audit, and post-audit (where conducted) activities.

(c) Audit reports may not necessarily contain an evaluation statement regarding the effectiveness ofthe Quality Assurance Program elements which were audited, as required by subsection 4.4.4, but they shall provide a summary ofthe audited areas and the results which identify the importance ofany adverse findings.

With regard to Section 4.5. 1 ofANSI N45.2. 12 1977 titled By Audited Organization: Ameren Missouri shall comply with the following clarification ofthe Section: Management ofthe audited organization or activity shall review and investigate adverse audit findings, as necessary, (e.g., where the cause is not already known, another organization has not already investigated and found the cause, etc.) to determine and schedule appropriate remedial action. The audited organization shall assure documentation ofremedial action taken is provided. Adverse audit findings shall be evaluated to Page 26 of 28

Such evaluations and implementation of actions shall be scheduled and performed consistent with the safety significance of the item. The audited organization shall take appropriate action to assure corrective action is accomplished as scheduled. In the event the action or schedule of implementation must be changed, the audited organization shall provide a revised response on or before the originally scheduled completion date which statuses the corrective action and states its completion date. Evaluation progress and corrective action implementation will be performed and tracked in accordance with provisions of Section 1 6 ofthe Ameren Missouri Operating Quality Assurance Manual.
