i- . Manager for itself and.the other owners, has the Quality Assurance-(QA)

I! respocsibility for design, engineering, procurement, fabrication,-

construction, preoperational testing and operation of the South Texas

~

Project (STP) Electric Generating Station.-

HL&P's Quality Assurance Plan requires that HL&P, its prime contractors, subcontractors and vendors comply with the criterin established by 10CFR50 Appendix B. It is the intent of HL&P to comply with ANSI N 45.2 >

and the applicable daughter standards and implementing Regulatory A- Guides. Furthermore, HL&P will assure through programmatic direction that the Engineer / Constructor and all its subcontractors and suppliers performing nuclear-safety-related work comply with 10CFR50 Appendix B, ANSI ~N45.2, and the Regulatory Guides as referenced herein consistent

- with their scope of work.

Programmatic direction is defined as the role of the owner in establish-ing the program requirements and ensuring the adequacy of the contractor's Quality Assurance Program. The programmatic direction consists of review and approval of the system features initially and continued monitoring of those systems during implementation and further refinement or revision of the systems if the systems need strengthening.

The assurance of compliance by first level nuclear safety-related suppliers will be accomplished through the Engineer / Constructor's review and approval of the supplier's Quality Assurance Program.

s Implementation reviews are performed by HL&P Discipline Quality Assurance personnel using prepared checklists to evaluate the r effectiveness of compliance to the Quality Assurance program at the South Texas Project site during construction. The implementation reviews use techniques such as interviews with personnel performing the activities, observations of actual work in progress, and reviews of final form. Implementation reviews are performed by qualified personnel based on experience, educational level, training, and proficiency examinations. Certifications are issued for specific discipline oriented activities.

inspection verifications are performed by qualified (ANSI N.45.2.6/ASNT-TC-1A) HL&P Quality Control personnel to determine the effectiveness of Brown & Root inspection planning documents. The inspections will consist of witness points during regular Brown & Root processing sequences and special task oriented inspections (nonconformance closeout, followup ~ investigations into problem areas) as requested by HL&P Discipline Quality Assurance.

Prime con-tractors and suppliers procedures shali include the documented verification of correct identification of gaterials, components and subassemblies, aad that the identification does not affect the function or quality of the item prior to release of the items for assembly or inreallation.

EL&P Project QA ensures that the above criteria are incorporated into the B&R Quality / Construction procedures during the review / approval cycle and then follows up with implementation reviews to ensure compliance.

HL&P Quality Control performs selected inspections to verify proper identification and control during construction activities.

In addition HL&P Houston QA performs audits for evaluation of the conformance to identification and contral criteria.

9.0 Control of Special Processes The HL&P Project Quality Assurance Plan requires that written procedures be established by prime contractors and subcontractors for the activities associated with all special processes. For special processes the qualification of personnel, procedures and equipment relating to specific codes, standards, specifications and contractual requirements shall be documented and maintained current.

HL&P Discipline QA ensuree that the special process control criteria are met by review and approval of all B&R special process procedures and performance of implementation reviews to ensure compliance.

EL&P Quality Control will perform certain special process examinations (NDE) during the inspection verification process.

These examinations will be performed by personnel qualified in accordance with ASNT-TC-1A-75 using qualified procedures approved by HL&P NDE Level III personnel.

15 m- - -

HL&P Houston QA performs audits of special process activities to ensure compliance with all aspects of the Quality Assurance program.

10.0 Inspection The HL&P Project Quality Assurance F?an requires B&R to establish and implement an inspection operation whose activities are independ-ent from the group performing the activities being inspected. The training, qualifications and certifications of inspectors includes criteria from appropriate codes, standards and B&R procedures and

' shall be documented and kept current. Inspection activities relating to construction, fabrication, installation and testing are documented, kept current and identify all mandatory inspection hold and test points and the critscia to be witnessed by authorized inspectors. Operations and inspections (including rework, replaced items) are performed in predetermined, documented sequences and deviations or deletions must be accomplished in accordance with approved and documented systems. Inspection procedures include all required inspection operations defined by the specifications, drawings,' codes and standards.

Where direct inspections are impossible or disadvantageous, in-process monitoring is specified in the inspection procedures and both direct and in process monitoring are used when control is inadequate without both. All required procedures, specifications and drawings are made available ;o the inspectors prior to perform-ing inspection.

RL&P Discipline QA ensures that inspection control criteria are complied with by review and approval of the inspection procedures and by implementation reviews of inspections in each discipline activity.

in addition to the Discipline QA controls, HL&P has instituted an inspection verification program to evaluate the effectiveness of the B&R inspection activity. The HL&P inspections are performed by the HL&P Quality Control group. HL&P Discipline QA will determine specific activities and areas to be inspected by HL&P QC.

The HL&P Inspectors are trained and certified by a program conforming to ANSI N45.2.6 and as applicable, ASNT-TC-1A-75.

HL&P QC personnel will also be directed by Discipline QA to perform followup inspections on selected non-conformance report and correc-tive action requests to ensure proper close-out verifications by B&R.

HL&P Houston QA performs audits of HL&P and B&R inspection activities to ensure compliance with these criteria.

In addition, HL&P Discipline QA institutes hold points in the B&R test program to ensure witnessing by HL&P Quality Control -

I personnel.

HL&P Houston QA then audits both HL&P and B&R activities to verify QA program compliance.

The test control activities are an example of a case in which HL&P Discipline QA monitoring activities and the Operational.QA monitoring activities will interface and in some instances overlap.

HL&P Project QA procedures will specifically define the responsibilities for this transition period.

12.0 Control of Measuring and Test Equipment The HL&P Project Quality Assurance Plan requires the establishment, doc mentation and implementation of a Measuring and Test Equipment Con rol System. The system is to include calibration techniques, spet .fications and accuracy, frequency and maintenance of all measuring instruments and test equipment used in the measuring, inssection and monitoring of nuclear safety-related items. Calibra-tio- and maintenance data shall be filed and kept current. Calibra-tiota standards are to be traceable to nationally recognized standards. If standards do not exist, the basis for calibration of the equipment is to be documented. If measuring or test equipment is found to be out of calibration, an investigation is required to be. performed to determine the validity of the use of the instrument and whether measurements or tests are required to be reperformed.

HL&P Discipline QA reviews and approves B&R calibration procedures to ensure these criteria are incorporated. In addition implementation reviews are performed to ensure compliance.

In the conduct of its inspection verifications HL&P Quality Control is required to use measuring and test equipment of the appropriate accuracy level which is centro 11ed by procedures meeting the requirements of this s'ction.

1. ANSI N.45.2.5-1974, Section 4.8, states " Pumped concrete must be sampled from the pump line discharge". In lieu of this statement, in process strength samples of pumped concrete are taken at the delivery point. Correlation tests of air content, slump, and temperature are performed to verify these plastic properties of the concrete at the placement point in accordance with the following frequency requirements:

A. A minimum of 2 correlation tests are performed for each pumped placement exceeding 200 cu. yds.

B. Otherwise, a minimum of 2 correlation tests per week are performed when any individual pumped placement during a week requires delivery of more than one truckload of concrete.

C. During a week when a pumped placement exceeding 200 cu. yds.

is made, the correlation tests performed on that placement will satisfy the weekly requirement for performing two correlation tests as specified in Item B above.

When any of the specified limits and tolerances on lons of air content, slump, or temperature are exceeded at the placement point, correlation tests between the delivery point and placement point will be accomplished for each 100 cu. yds. of concrete placed as Table 2-2

If two consecutive tests are out of tolerence, corrective action will be inplemented to assure that subsequent loads awaiting discharge into the pump 4 are within tolerances for the placement. This will be accom-plished by adj'2 sting the plastic p'.-operty requirements of the concrete at the pump intake.

T " Correlation Tests", " Delivery Point", and " Placement Point" are as defined in ANSI N.45.2.5-1978, Section 1.4.

2. Samples and frequency for cadweld testing is in accordance with ACI-359/ASME Section III, Division 2, issued for trial use and comment in 1973, including addenda 1 through 6, (see Sections 3.6.1.6.3 and 3.8.3.6.3 of the STP Final Safety Analysis Report).
