l The S&L QA progra=, SL-3028, and i=ple=enting procedures were in effect for the above sark, except the 555S specification, =eteorological program specification and award, and boring pregram specification and award. These were under the control of a =anage=ent authorized QA Program and procedures in effect at that cine which included standard approved =ethods for audi:s and follow-up.

S&L quality-related activities are documented in procedures, standards, and instructions as well as a QA Program.

S&L policies, goals, and objectives require through its QA Program the application of those quality system elements necessary to the fesign of structures, systems, and components and any additional censulting services previded by S&L to meet the requirements of S&L, Public Service Indiana, and applicable codes, standards, and regulatory agencies.

Such structure, system, and component design and services will be performed in accordance wi:h the ? ogram which satisfies the require =ents of 10 CFR 50, Appendix 3.

The S&L QA Program and implementing procedures specify methods 1

to be used in ce= plying with applicable criteria and are mandatory for all nuclear safety-related work.

See Table Al-1 for a listing of QA and QC procedures that describe the implementation of applicable 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, criteria.

The activities in safety-related work are audited periodically to verify that they have been performed in accordance with the Progra= and associated i

j procedures.

Disputes arising from a difference of opinion between Quality Assurance and personnel of other Departments shall be resolved by the General Manager.

All S&L personnel engaged in safety-related work receive for=al training in the application cf those procedures to their work. The program provides for indoctrination and training of persennel performing activities affecting i

quality as se 'ssary to provide assurance that appropriate proficiency is achieved and =uintained. This training is accomplished in accordance with l

appropriate procedures and lessen plans approved by the Head of the Quality Assurance Divisien.

l The qualification requirements for the position responsible for assuring effective implementation of the QA ? ogram are stated under Ortanizatien.

At least once each year a report is prepared assessing the status, adequacy and effectivity cf the QA Program. This report will be prepared by the Head, QA Division at the direction of the General Manager. The basis for this report is provided by the findings and assessments made during audits. This is supplemented with the findings of a sanagement audit of the QA Division.

Personnel perfor=ing audits have no direct responsibility for the activity which they are reviewing.

As a minimu=, this report addresses the following three major objectives:

l to assess compliance with and effectiveness of the a.

program and its i=plementation, b.

to assess the adequacy and status of implementing procedures, and to assess confer:ance of this program wi:h current l

c.

l regula:1ces and guidelines.

Appropriate corrective action is taken en the results of this review.

Design Control The design of structures, systems, and ce=ponents is directly controlled l

within the various S&L design organizations. The control processes are docu=ented by procedures and instructions which establish the responsibilities and interf aces of each organizational unit that has an assigned design respon-sibility.

Included are measures to assure the following:

a.

Design criteria, for structures, system and components, identify the applicable design bases, regulatory require-ments, codes and standards. The correctness of the trans-lation of the design criteria into specifications, drawings, procedures and instructions is part of the desigo review performed in accordance with specified QA proceduJes (see Table Al-1).

b.

Appropriate quality requirements and standards are specified and included in design documents by those assigned responsibility for these items.

c.

Deviations from quality requirements and standards sud design changes (including field-initiated design char.ges) are controlled to the same level as was applied to tae original design. The review and approval of such deviations is accomplished by the same groups that performed the original review and approval unless another equivalent responsible design group is designated by S&L management.

A1.3.1 Design of Purchased Eculpment The design documentation for purchased equipment, components, and services nor= ally consists of equipment, component, and services procurement specifications which specify general requirements including materials, processes workmanship, and tests; layout drawings which show the outline and interf ace requirements; and specific data sheets of project infor=ation which define the requirements of the equipment, ecmponent, or services. The project engineer is responsible for the preparation of the design instructions, specifications, and drawings, and assurance that they conform to the requirements of the project data sheets, system design control documents, design criteria, and applicable codes, standards, and regulations. The initial issues of purchase specifications are reviewed by the Contract Division and the Quality Control Division prior to supplier bidding. Changes to those documents are controlled in the same nanner.

The specification outlines the engineering documents (such as drawings, procedures, calculations, qualification data, test data and quality verification documents) which =ust be submitted by the vendor for review and comment.

411.26 Any subsequent changes to the vendor docu=ents are for= ally revieved and their acceptance documented.

"Off the shelf" commercial or previously approved =aterials, parts, and 411.3 equipment that are essential to the safety-related functions of structures, systems and co=ponents are reviewed by the appropriate engineering division for suitability of application. Reviews of these ite=s may include any or all of the following: historical perfor=ance data and records, valid industry standards and specifications, prototype testing prograss and design reviews.

  • esign criteria which contain design bases and other data for the specific project are issued to the client and to the responsible casign groups.

Syste: design-controlli=g documents are then prepared by the responsible

roject engineers. The system design-controlling docu=ents provide the basis for detailed structure, system, and component design and typically include the syste: design criteria, piping and instrument diagrams, functional descriptions and control diagrams, instru=ent engineering diagrams, and i

instrument data sheets.

The design effort for plant thermal, stress, radiation and hydraulic 411.1?

analyses; co=patibility of materials; accessibility for inservice inspection,

=aintenance, and repair; and specifyi=g criteria for inspection and tests are carried out by the responsible design organizations and are subjected to tha design reviews and controls in accordance with design and quality assurance procedures den appropriate, acceptance / rejection criteria are included in design documents.

Verification of checking of design activities and design documents is accomplished by performing design reviews, or the use of alternate or simplified calculational methods, or by conducting a suitable test program.

kten a test program is used to verify the adequacy of a design feature, it includes suitable qualification testing of a prototype unit under conditions extending to the =ost adverse design conditions. The extent of tha verification is to be consistant vich the importance of the design activity to plant safety, co=plexity of design, degree of standardization, state of the art and s4-4*arity with previously proven design.

Departmental standards and quality assurance procedures provide guidance 411 9 for pe g design verification. They are performed by qualified personnel independent of the preparer, and the reviewer is not the preparer's i==ediate supetviser except as permitted in Regulatory Guide 1.64 These standards provide for the 'ssignments of review personnel, including personnel frc= interfacing depart =ents, establish the considerations to be used in H

reviewing the systen or structure and define the responsibility and authority of the reviewers, includin6 chair authority to reject design.

k* hen a reviewer's co==ents are satisractorily resolved, the document is signed and becomes a reccrd of design verification and is subject to audit.

The appropriate engineerizig division responsible for the review assures that:

411.25 a.

design characteristics can be controlled, inspected and 411,11 tested, and b.

inspecti:n and test criteria are identified.

411 14 In addition to the design reviews, stated above, made prior to the issue of design documents, an independent design review is made of the engineering work for systers er co=plete structures, after the design documents have been adequate y developed and PSI has had an opportunity to review them for adherence to requirenents. The independent design review covers the project scope-of-work d : =ent, the system design-controlling documents, and the design criteria. The doc==ents are reviewed against requirements of the PSAR and j

any applicable ameninents with the responsible project design engineers providng necessary design information as required for the review. Responsibility to initiate and to follow through on any required changes is assigned to applicable pr:je:: personnel.

A1,3,3 Centinuine Desien Evaluation Necessary changes resulting from evaluation cf problems with other plants which are generic and affect quality and which may be applicable to the project are identified, documented, reviewed, and resolved by S&L.

Folicwing the decision to apply a prcject design change originating frcm this actica, the responsible project engineer (s) make the necessary design document changes where applicable, to solve the design problem.

Revisions to the design documents as well as field changes are subjected to review and approval precedures commensurate with these applied to the original design.

A1.3.4 Desien Interfaces The project manager assigned.to the project is responsible fcr the total project coordination wich SSL.

The project engineers are directly responsible for the preparation of the engineering design a.nd the documentation issued for the project.

The interrelationship between the principal design organizations within SSL associated with the project is indicated in Figure Interactions between S&L and outside organi=ations such as PSI 411.14' and Westinghouse, which provide designs, specification, data and/or technical directicn are defined as external interfaces.

The identification of ex'ternal interfaces.is described in documents such as scope of work, procuremer_t specifications, and general quality assurance procedures.

Procedur'es are es ablished for the review, approval, release, 411.9 distribution, and revision of SSL design documents among par.icipating design organizations (see Table Al-1

).

These precedures include provisions for the following:

a.

reviewing documents for accuracy and technical adequacy prior to release;

b. ' approving doc:ments by authorized personnel; distributing documents to th'eir intended points cf c.

use; d.

determining that the correct revision of these documents is being used;

' A1-10

e.

providing ststdard systems for identification of documents and a centrol system to clearly. indicate

_ heir applicability, accountability, and status; s

f.

establishing retention periods for documents and a mechanism for their transmittal to the client, if required; g.

filing of documents in an orderly manner in a ille rocm, or area that provides controlled access ans' prouec-J.on against fire, flood, vermin, and decay; and h.

subjec ing changes to dccuments to the same degree of centrol as the original.

In addition to -Je documents which centrol system design, a series of project procurement and standard specifications establish the requirements for structure and component design which satisfy the system requirements.

These project procurement and standard specifications identify applicable codes, standards, regulacions, and otheir requirements to be utilized to assure ccmpliance with 57.c criteria, quality levels, and specific reg.irements which SSL or the client imposes to meet acceptable gc als.

Subsequen: changes to the documents for che project are subjected to review and approval procedures commensurate with

.hese applied to che orig' al issue.

E l

A1-10a l

Caficiencies and nonconformance in SSL work detected during the design verification process or by other means are centrolled and corrected in accordance with procedures.

The SSL QA Program is supplemented by detailed proceduras covering requirements for distrir

' ion of design documents, drawings, etc.

Later issues of specific docun. ants er drawings follow the same distribution as the original.

Status lists are prepared, distributed, and reviewed per documented procedures to prevent inadvertent use of obsolete documents.

A1.3.5 Control, Collection, and stcrace of Documents The SSL QA Program includes implementing procedures for control, collecticn, storage, and maintenance of documents, and changes thereto in a systematic manner as follows:

a.

Quality Assurance Manual control; b.

control of regulations, guides, codes, and standards; c.

project distribution list and project file index; d.

identification and retention of quality assurance records; e.

storage, handling, and retrieval of QA records; and f.

control of revisicns to design documents.

A1,3,;

Desien Chanca Centrol The design change centrol procedure requires documentaticn of the change, approval by the responsible project engineer, and finally a design verification review.

The responsible project engineer is charged with the responsibility for defining all other design documents affected by the change, and for resolving and coordinating changes with other project engineers whose design is af f ected.

Design changes affecting interface conditions between PSI and the major equipment suppliers are identified, acconplished, reviewed by the Project Manager with PSI, checked,

, and documented in accordance with established procedures (see Table Al-1

).

Design changes identified by field organizations are generally the resul: of unexpected construction or-operating ccnditions.

Tne field organization generates a document which identifies the conditions and may propose a method of correction.

SSL is responsible f or documenting safety-related design changes.

When a proposed design or a method of correcting a design problem does net comply with apprcved design basis documents, it is the res-ponsibility of S&L to provide a solution to the problem in accord with project procedures.

A1-11

The cbjective of such reviews is to identify quality problems of a generic nature.

Action is taken, as appropria *, to correct identified deficiencies and noncenformances and to preclude repetition.

The QA Program assigns to the Project Manager the responsibility for correcting and controlling deficiencies and noncenformances in SCL work that are detected in audits, in the design verifi ation process, or by other means.

The Project Manager eriorms this duty in accordance with specific procedures.

r The specific procedure for identifying and correcting deficiencies and nonconformances requires anyone who detects a deficiency or nonconformance to file a corrective Action Repcrt.

The procedure defines the means for review of this report by appropriate levels of management, and assigns responsibilities for the varicus actions to be taken once the report has been

Dear Mr. Stello:

Sassafras indubon received notice tod.ay of the forthec=i=g meeti=g of the NRC with PSI, April 11, lo80 in Bethesda, Maryland, on PSI's Revised Quality Assurance Progran for Marble F417 -

Teu a:e =st listed as a participa=t in the meeting, but si=ce you chaired the meeting at Madison, Tn#4ana on this subject, and will be involved d.n the reco=sendation to the C.

  1. =si:ners as to vbether safety-related construction should resume at Marble

"#'7, we th ug=t it best to add:ess our co= timing concerns to you.

ne of the =ajor cuesti.ons SAS seeks answers to concerning Marble M411 (see.*.,tatement p ese=ted to you at Madison, Tn44 = on March 25,1980) were anivered at the meeting at Fadisen. Eth regard Question I, "Can Marble Hill be repaired sufficient 17?", we hooe that the NP.C will support an independent assessme=t of the quality of construction a:d the degree to which it can be satisfactorily repaired, which has been sought by Save-the ~ alley.

he qcestion of whether PSI v471 be recuired to have N Certification, not just an "i=eri= let-er", prior to resQion of construction at Fafels Will, was =ade more cc= fusing at the meeti=g on March 25, Fadison, Tndia by the co=ments of Mr. S.W.

5:ields, Tice-President, Electric Syste=s, PSI. Does PSI still intend to assume over-all respo:sibility for Farble '34'7 ? If the ASME Code is law in the State of Inr '=

v' " ot FSI bzve to be certified? Ntrtech's assessme=t, pages 79-88 of the proceedi=gs of the Subce 'ttee Eea-ings on Const-.2ction Pmble=s at Maio'e ~34'7 : Nuclear Recula-tc.. Co 'esion Oversitht, Eeve=ber 27 and 28,1979, states that it is ex remely in-po-ta=t T a a.11 syste=s and co=ponents in that plant be built in accordance with the M Code a=d be code sta= ped in orcer for PSI to qualify for insurance at Marble F'".

This is =:t tre time to accept another prc=issory note fron PE.

Sassafras ;- r-+cs co=ti=ues to be disturbed by the fact that ricstantial progress has I

been =ade in the construction of Marble '33" (even though not " safety-: elated") yet FSI does not bzve a fally developed and fc=ctional Material Management Progran. This see=s ime=cusable and a =at'er of =isplaced priorities.

PE, vben gaestioned by the EEC at the March 25 meeti=g as to when PSI personnel would repla:s M1C perso=nel, :eplied that they expected it to take one to three years. As we ce=e=ed on Farch 25th, this is far too i=defini,e considering thatsafety-related verk stgage was brought on at least in part by serious understaffing as well as la.ek l

Questions and Co ments of the Sassafras Audubon Society presented at a Public Meeting held at Madison, Indiana, March 25, 1980, on the P.e-sponse of Public Service Indiana, Inc. (PSI) to the HP.0 " Order Con-firming Suspension of Construction" at Marble Hill, August 15, 1979 i

'he para =ount question concernirg Marble Hin is not whether safety-related construc-tien should be resumed, but whether all construction should be stopped. Should the public be subjected to the dangers inherent in the operation of a nuclear plant, in-cluding the storage of the plant's highly toxic wastes o._n-site, jf_ its po.er is not needed?

J-PSI has an overcapacity of :nore than 50% at peak power demand with Gibson 5 expected to come on line in 1933 PSI has over-estimated growth in de=and for electrical err-crg in its service area for =any years, and is urrailling to recognice :

1) that the expected population growth and general econo =ic activity in its area is likely to re=ain lov' below the Nation's average, aM
2) that the increasing cost of electrical energy will spur grea+ar energ con-servation, with the potential of energy conservation cutting energy use 30-40% by the year 2000, and
3) that ine: easing availability of natural gas in the next several decades win co=pete with and reduce dependency on electric power.

' The disastrous economics of nuchar plants adds another dimension to the question of whether Marble Hm should be built. The costs of constructing a nuclear plant has been increasing an:really at = ore than 3X the rate of general inflation, partly because of changes in design and adoption of standards to reduce the level of hacards in plant ope ration.

PSI should be requi:ed by the NP.0, prior to consideration of resumption of const: action, to idents.fy and docu=ent all safety-related =aterials and syste=s which will have to be changed, additi rQ'9^.ashvc 9
