Dear Mr. Abel:
SUBJECT:
NRC ACCEPTANCE OF REVISIONS TO QA TOPICAL REPORT We have completed our review of Revision 15 dated January 2,1981 to the Common-wealth Edison Company (CECO) Topical Report No. CE-1-A, " Commonwealth Edison Company Quality Assurance Program for Nuclear Generating Stations." This revision concerns general organizational and programmatic changes. You indicated in your transmittal letter that the topical report and this revision are intended to be applicable to nuclear units identified by Docket Numbers 50-10, 50-237, 50-249, 50-254, 50-265, 50-295, 50-304, 50-373, 50-374, 50-454, 50-455, 50-456, and 50-457.
Based on our evaluation of the proposed changes described in Revision 15, we find that your revised topical report continues to meet the criteria of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and is therefore acceptable with the exception of certain potential changes currently under evaluation as noted below.
To use the topical report in future license applications, CECO need only reference this topical report in Section 17 of the Safety Analysis Report. We do not intend to repeat our review of this topical report when it is referenced in an application unless changes occur in our acceptance criteria.
Should regulatory criteria or regulations change such that our conclusions about this topical report are invalidated, we will notify you. You will be given the opportunity to revise and resubmit it should you so desire. As noted above, sMuld you desire to reference this topical report in support of quality assurance programs for new nuclear power projects, the basis of our evaluation will be the acceptance criteria included in the latest revision to SRP Sections 17.1 and 17.2 (currently Revision 1). Appropriate changes may, therefore, be necessary.
Programmatic changes by CECO to this topical report are to be submitted to the NRC for review prior to implementation. Organizational changes are to be submitted no later than 30 days after announcement.
As a result of the TMI-2 accident, please note that staf'f re-evaluation of the
~
quality assurance program for Zion Units 1 and 2 in accordance with an action plan for plants located at relatively high population density sites may result in future changes to this topical report. Therefore, staff approval of Revision 15 is contin-gent upon the final resolution of this separate review activity.

- 4r. J. S. Abel FEB 0 21 sat Please replace our letter of Noverber 13, 1980 with this letter, renumber the report as CE-1-A, Revision 15, and submit 36 copies to the f;RC.
Your transmittal letter should identify the nuclear units to which this revised topical will apply.
Should you have any questions regarding our review or if we can provide assistance, please feel free to contact me or Mr. William Belke at (301) 492-7741.
Sincerely,
