4i TESTIMONY OF JOSEPH W. BRISKIN 5l ON HL&P'S TASK FORCE APPROACH TO RESPONDING TO THE NRC ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE 6

7!

8l 9l Q. 1 Please state your name and current occupation.

10 ;

11 !

A.

1 I am Joseph W. Briskin.

South Texas Project 1 2 '.

13 l (STP) Manager, Houston Operations, of Houston Lighting &

14 15 Power Company (HL&P).

16 17 ;

Q. 2 What are your responsibilities as Manager, Houston 1g'

{g l Operations?

2 l

A. 2 I am responsible for directing the work of the 2

22 components of HL&P's Project Management Team that are located 23 24 '

in Houston.

This includes engineering, procurement, project 25 26 i control services, accounting and project administration.

27 ;

23 i Q. 3 Describe your professional experience in construction 29 '

30 ;

project management and control.

3{9 l A. 3 I have been actively engaged in project control 3

33 !

34 l and project management for twenty years, including about ten 35 l years on nuclear projects.

This includes four and a half l

37 years as supervisor of project planning and scheduling for 38 -,

39 !

Florida Power & Light Company, where my responsibility 40 41 !

included the St. Lucie and Turkey Point nuclear plants.

I i

l 42 ~

43 f also was employed by Westinghouse Corporation for three and 44 45 a half years as Manager of construction scheduling on Consolidated

[

46 47 Edison Company's Indian Point nuclear plant.

I have held my 48 l present position since I joined HL&P in March of 1980.

Q. 4 What is the purpose of your testimony?

5i A. 4 The purpose of my testimony is to describe the 6I 7{

organization and functioning of the Task Force I headed that 8l 10 l reviewed the NRC Investigation Report No. 79-19 and the NRC 9

11 !

Show Cause Order, and developed the HL&P responses to such 12 i 13 :

order.

My testimony will show how the Task Force systematically 14 13 '

analyzed the issues posed by the NRC Order to Show Cause 16 17 dated April 30, 1980, (Show Cause Order), performed thorough 15 yg j studies of the adequacy of the safety-related concrete, 20 l structural backfill and welding at STP, and designed effec-22 '

tive revisions of the administrative controls for the quality 23 i 24 :

assurance (QA) program.

The details of the results of the 25 '

26 l Task Force work responding to Item 7 of the Order (control 27 l 28 !

of field design changes) are contained in my testimony, 29 !

30 while all of the other detailed results are presented in the 3~1 I

{

testimony of the various witness panels on the welding, 3

33 '

concrete and backfill, and in Mr. Frazar's testimony on the 34 35 '

revised administrative controls.

My testimony will also t

36 2' I describe the control system HL&P has adopted to assure that l

38 !

39 !

the resulting commitments made by HL&P are fulfilled on a l

40 41 timely basis.

5 The NRC enforcement action in April of 1980 56j in luded both a Notice of Violation and a Show Cause Order.

The answer to the Notice of Violation was due in 25 days and 9i the response to the Show Cause Order was due in 90 days.

To 10 i 11 !

investigate the twenty-two items of noncompliance and prepare 12 l 13 l a response within 25 days required an intensive effort.

14 13 '

Mr. Frazar was given responsibi?.ity for the investigation, 16 17 l which he conducted with the aid of the HL&P Houston-based QA 9g!

{g l audit staff headed by Mr. Robert Ulroy.

2 After HL&P filed its response to the Notice of Violation, 2

22 I we had a little over 60 days left to analyze the Show Cause 23 24 l Order, organize the efforts necessary to examine the adequacy 25 ;

26 l of the backfill, concrete and welding, to study alternative 27 '

28 !

administrative controls and to develop revised systems.

To 29 I 30,

perform so much work thoroughly and carefully in that amount 3s i 3{ j of time required that special attention be given to the 33 ll task.

It was recognized that this effort had to be given 34 35 l highest priority, that it would require personnel of the 36 t 37 !

highest qualifications and that the people working on the 38 !

39 !

response should be relieved of all other duties that could 40 41 keep them from devoting adequate time to the Show Cause 42 i 43 response.

44 43 l I was placed in charge of the effort, and I organized a 46 '

47 Task Force of senior HL&P and Brown & Root (B&R) employees 48 49 i

50 i 51

2 l:

3i4j and consultants to do the necessary work.

The Task Force 5i was assigned responsibility for preparing draft responses to 6!

eight of the ten Show Cause Order items.

Responsibility for 9!

drafting of responses to Items 1 and 4, regarding QA organiza-10 ;

11 !

tion and the QA brochure was assigned to the QA group, 12 l 13 '

headed by Mr. Frazar.

14 15,

Q. 6 Why were you selected to head the Task Force?

16 '

17 l A. 6 The primary role of the Task Force leader was to

~3 !

1 gj provide management direction in order to assure that the 20 Task Force effort was given proper priority, that the people 21 ;

22 working on the Task Force were functioning properly and that 23 24 the work was proceeding on schedule.

My position as Manager, 25,

26 l Houston Operations was an appropriate one to head the effort 27 l 28 '

because I had sufficient authority to direct the proper 39 30 !

allocation of resources to the Show Cause response, and to 31 assign additional personnel to the Task Force as the need 32 33 i

might arise.

34 Q. 7 Who assisted you on the Task Force?

37 l

A. 7 The eight Show Cause Order items that were my 38 1

39 responsibility were divided into two areas:

examination of 40 the adequacy of completed construction work and revision of 41 42 l

43 i

certain administrative controls.

We designated Mr. James 44 i

45 l

Hawks, the B&R Engineering Project Manager, to direct efforts 46 in the first area:

Items 2, 3 and 10 dealing with the 47 48 49 l

50 j

51 l

i

3 completed construction work and the FSAR statements regard-4 5

ing backfill placement.

The group working on Items 5 through 71 9, which dealt with Project administrative controls, was 8!

9l under Mr. Robert Ulrey, then HL&P's Supervisor, QA Support 10 !

11 l Division.

12 l 13 l Q. 8 How did you organize the work under Mr. Hawks?

14 A. 8 Under Mr. Hawks, we set up a separate subgroup 13 ;

16 17 l f r each f the three disciplines, backfill, welding and sg' p

concrete, each headed by the Lead 3&R Project Engineer for g

20 '

that area.

These were Mr. Gerald Murphy for concrete, Mr.

99 2b Bernt Pettersson for backfill and Mr. N. J. Natarajan for 23 24 welding.,Each of these men was assigned a sufficient number 25 26 of B&R and HL&P personnel trained in the respective disci-27 28 Pline to perform in-depth studies of the completed work.

In 29 addition, we decided to obtain the services of prominent l

30 33 33 consultants in each of the three areas so that we would have 33 independent assurance that our investigative programs were 3,

\\

30 well conceived and that the results of our investigations l

36 l

37 !

were correct.

Thus, we obtained the services of three l

38 t l

39 experts in geotechnical engineering, three experts in non-40 l

41,

destructive examination of welds and three experts in various 42 ;

43 aspects of the examination of concrete placements.

We also 44 hired a statistician to advise the subgroup working on 45 1

46 s

concrete verification.

In all there were approximately 120 47 l 48 i

49 l

l 50 51 :

I Li 2i 3'l 4

B&R'and HL&P engineers and consultants, and over 150 techni-5i cians and craftsmen, working on these three Task Force 6

f efforts.

The results of the work of these groupL is dis-9!

cussed in detail in the testimony of our witnesses on concrete, 10 i 11 I backfill and welding.

12 13 Q. 9 Describe the organization of the group on admini-14 15,

strative controls working under Mr. Ulrey.

16 :

17 l A. 9 Mr. Ulrey's group had responsibility for show 16 '

yg j Cause Order Items 5 through 9.

It was clear that the primary "O i

}

effort in this area was required for Items 6 and 7, which 22 l involved the related systems for reporting of nonconformances 23 '

24 p and for field design changes.

We established a subgroup on 25 26 those areas under Mr. Richard Peverley, the B&A Assistant 27 !

29 1 Engineering Project Manager-Special Services, whose project 29 I 30,

responsibilities routinely include the QA requirements of 31 32 j engineering design.

Mr. William N. Phillips, then HL&P's 33 j Project QA Manager, was responsible for Item 5 on stop work; 34 ;

3 Mr. R. J. Purdy, B&R's QA Records Control Manager was put in 37 charge of the efforts to respond to Item 8 on records control; 38 !

39 i and Mr. Paul W.

Ratter, an experienced HL&P QA Specialist, 40 :

41 I in the audit group was given responsibility for the work on 42 4 43 !

Item 9 on audit programs.

In each case we designated suffi-I 44 45 cient qualified personnel to thoroughly analyze the issues 46 i l

47 I and design workable systems.

We also obtained the advice of A

48 l consultants.

4 Q. 10 You mentioned that the subgroup headed by Mr.

5 Feverley was a p ertic:larly important part of Mr. Ulrey's 6

7i effort.

How was Mr. Peverley's subgroup organized?

3 9

A.

10 Mr. Peverley was responsible for Items 6 and 7, 10 11 '

which dealt with two related systems, nonconformances and 12 13 field design changes.

Under Mr. Peverley separate teams 14 15 were set up for the two items.

96 17 The responsibility for Item 6 was divided into two 17'

{g '

distinct teams: one for nonconformances reporting and another 2

f r trend analyses.

In each instance the team was composed 21 22 of personnel intimately familiar with the subject being 23 24 reviewed.

Tb3 team reviewing the nonconformance reporting 29 26 (NCR) system was initially headed by Mr. E.

C. McKenney, a 27 ;

23 member of the Engineering Site group.

Mr. McKenney has 29 30 considerable experience in the use of the NCR system.

39 32,

Mr. Donald Harris of Management Analysis Corporation, who is 33 n w the advisor to the B&R Quality Engineering Manager, was 34 j

35 '

a consultant to the team.

The representatives of the Engineer-36 37 i ing and Construction organizations were Mr. A.

S. Goewey 38 39' an'd Mr. B. N. Kesarinath, both of whom also have had exten-40 :

41 '

sive experience in Ising the NCR system.

Mr. Ulrey partici-42 l

43 pated in many >f the team's working meetings.

This team 44 l l

45 included not only representatives of the major B&R organiza-46 47 tions that utilize the system, but also included individuals 1

48 !

l 49 :

i 50 51

L 2

3t 4

whose broad experience with the system encompassed several 5

organizational perspectives.

6 The team reviewing trend analysis was headed by Mr. B. F.

9' Mitchell who is a member of the B&R Engineering (Design 10 11 -

Quality Engineering) organization.

Mr. Mitenell has extensive 12,

13 '

experience in reliability analysis and statistical evaluation, 14 15 both of which apply to trend analysis.

Mr. Mitchell was 16 ;

assisted by several members of the B&R Engineering and QA 17 15 '

19 organ 1:ations.

2 After both of these teams had completed their initial 32 studies and had provided recommendations for the reorganiza-23 24 tion of these tasks, this work Jas turned over to Mr. R. A.

25 26 Frazar and Mr. L. Zwissler of Management Analysis Corporation 27 23 who, with the assistance of various members of the EL&P and 29 30 B&R QA organizatior.s, completed the task.

39 35 The team reviewing the field request design change 33 -

34 ;

system was headed by R. W. Peverley, who has extensive 3h experience in quality programs and reliability analyses on t

J7 !

various projects.

38 39 i Q. 11 How were all of the groups comprising your Task 40 l 41 l Force directed to perform their tasks?

42 43 A.

11 Each grcup was instructed to analyze its area of 44 45 !

respu.

cility, to identify the underlying NRC concerns and 46 to determine any additional aspects of the respective systems 47 i

48 49 50 i

I 51

i L!

2; 3l 4;

that might be improved.

In some of the areas there were 5-6j findings in the NRC Investigation Report which clearly 7!

indicated the problem as perceived by NRC.

In other areas 8

i 9i we were less sure of the problem perceived by NRC.

With 10 I 11 respect to administrative controls, most of the NRC concerns 12 13 !

had been identified during the exit interview in January 1980, 14 15 and studies and procedure changes had already been initiated.

15 ;:

17 i Each group was directed to go beyond the findings

'6 !

1 gj identified by the NRC staff and to determine the necessary 20 improvements.

A good example is the NCR system.

It appeared 32 I to us that the primary NRC concern was that the trend analysis 23 !

24 l on the Project was ineffective.

Mr. Frazar's testimony goes 25 26 l into the purposes and procedures for trend analysis, and I 27 !

28 i will not attempt to duplicate his discussion.

The point I 29 l l

30 j want to make is that we completely reexamined the NCR system 31 i 32 l and proposed changes to improve the system and make it more I

33 l responsive to the needs of the Project organizations.

A l

34 l

similar approach was used by each of the groups.

As a 37 result, we have made significant improvements in our administra-38 ;

39 l tive controls, as Mr. Frazar's testimony explains in detail.

40 41 Q. 12 Were all of the recommendations of the Task 42 l l

43 Force concerning administrative controls accepted and adopted?

I 44 I

45 A.

12 Every recommendation was carefully examined by 46 HL&P and B&R management with the aid of consultants.

Most 47 48 j

49 l

50 l

51 1

2 3i of the recommendations were adopted but the management 4I 5i review did result in changes to some of the proposed new 6i procedures.

The primary changes were in the response to 9i Item 6.

One example concerns the forms used.

The Task 10 l 11 '

Force recommended the adoption of three new forms, to be 12 '

13 '

called an Inspection Report, a Squawk and a Discrepancy 14 15 Report.

Th3se forms would be used to identify concerns 16 about construction work and to escalate the level of review 17 1

Sgi

{g {

if resolution could not be achieved at the QC Inspector-20 Construction Foreman level.

Based on the consultant's 21 22 advice the system was simplified; a single NCR form is used 23 24 instead of the three forms proposed by the Task Force.

Also, 25 26 the initial level for resolution of NCR's was changed from 27 ;

28 '

the level of QC Inspector-Construction Foreman to the level 39 30 '

of Lead QC Inspector-Construction General Foreman.

This 39 33 eliminated a potential source of friction between QC Inspec-33 tors and Construction personnel.

This simplified the process, 34 i 35 but retained the essential features of the system proposed 37 :

by the Task Force.

38 '

t 39 In general, however, the management review found the 40 i 41 '

Task Forco proposals to be well conceived, and the basic 42 43 l

changes proposed by the Task Force were adopted and imple-44 i 45 i

mented on the Project.

l 46 47 48 49 4

50 il l i

1 24 3

4 Q. 13 How were the results of these Task Force and 56l management reviews documented?

w Sl A.

13 HL&P submitted its written response to the Show 3

9 Cause Order on July 28, 1980.

That response described the 10 l 11 studies undertaken regarding the backfill, concrete and 12 l 13 welding, as well as the changes to be made in the QA organi-14 15 sation, personnel and staffing, and in the administrative 16 17,

controls.

These changes involved many procedure revisions.

9gI

{g,

Work had already been started on those changes well before 2

the July 28 response was submitted.

22 Q. 14 Item 7 of the Order required that EL&P develop 23 34 and implement a more effective system to provide for the 25 26 control of field changes in order to assess the impact of 27,

28 these changes on the design.

Please explain the meaning of 29 '

30 the term " field change".

31 '

32 :

A.

14 A field change is a change in the plant design 33 3 4 ';

that is initiated by a request from the job site.

That does 35 l not mean that the construction crew changes the plant design; 36 i l

37 '

it does not.

It means that construction identifies to 38 39 Engineering a design detail that is difficult or impossible 40 i 41 '

to build exactly as designed.

One example is an interference.

42,

43,

The designer may have required that a concrete wall have t

44 !

45 l vertical steel reinforcement bars (rebar) throughout its 46 ;

47 !

length at specified intervals.

At the same time, the design 48 i 49 '

50 l 51 i l

i 1

1 2

3!

4l may also require that a pipe pass through that wall at a 5!

6i particular point.

If it happens that rebar is located 7l 8l just where the pipe should go, that is an interference which 9i LO l was not anticipated by the designer.

Procedures are LL i (2

provided for Construction to notify Engineering of such

'3

{4,

situations so that the design may be changed, perhaps by 13 moving the pipe, or by moving the rebar.

L6 L7 Q. 15 At the time of the NRC investigation, what was L5 '

L9 the procedure for control of design changes?

20 21 A. 15 Under the procedures in effect at the time of 22 g3,

the NRC investigation, the B&R construction forces and the 14

{g HL&P start-up organization utilized a form entitled " Field fk,

Requests for Engineering Actions" (FREA) to propose design

.1 28 changes from the field.

The FREA was partially filled out 29 30 by C'onstruction personnel and transmitted to B&R Engineering.

Il '

32 '

Engineering, if it approved of the design change, would 53 34 !

complete the balance of the FREA.

The completed FREA form 35 !

could serve as the design change mechanism or the change 16 i

could be made on a Document Change Notice.

39,

The FREA was also used by B&R Engineering to document l

l 10 t 11 design changes or deviations that could not readily be 12 '

l 13 l incorporated on the design drawings, and other minor design 14 ;

15 l changes that did not appear to merit implementing the proce-16 17 dure for issuing a Document Change Notice.

Deviations from l

18 !

19 l 30 l

Il I i i

~

i 1

2 3

4 design could also be approved by procedures involving an 5

NCR.

6 7!

Q. 16 What changes were made in response to the NRC 8:

9.

Order?

10 '

11 :

A.

16 The field design change system has been changed 12 i 13 in a number of respects to provide more follow-through 14 13 information to the QC Inspectors; to enable more rapid and 16 17 i efficient determinations through enhanced engineering staffs 13

{g at the site; and to require complete documentation, including 20 justification of all change requests.

These changes include:

31 22 (1) revision of the forms utilized for design changes; 23 >

24 (2) an enhanced on-site B&R Engineering staff; (3) addition 25 26,

of a B&R Engineering board, the Change Review Board, to 27 ;

28 review design changes; and (4) establishment of a design 29 '

30 change tracking system.

Each change is discussed in the i

39 32 ;

remainder of this testimony.

All of this enhances and 4l facilitates the assessment of the individual and cumulative 35 i impact of field changes on the plant design.

36 :

37 {

Q. 17 Describe the revisions that have been made to 38 39 '

the design change forms.

40 i 41 '

A.

17 To assure that the new system for controlling 42 43 field changes is properly implemented, and to preclude the 44 45 use of field change requests in the place of NCR's to report I

46 47 j nonconforming' conditions, a new system of forms has been 48 i 49 !

50 !

51 ';

i 1l 2

3 4I adopted.

The old FREA form has been eliminated.

Construction f

and Start-up now propose field changes by submitting Field 7'

Change Requests (FCR's) to the Project Site Engineering 8

9 organzation.

i 10 i 11 i An FCR is only used to request a change when a need to 12 i 13,

depart from design requirements is identified in the planning 14 13 i stage or discovered while work is in progress, but prior to 16 '

17 i reaching a planned inspection point.

If a nonconforming 15 !

gg j condition is found to exist during a planned inspection of 20 work, an NCR must be prepared.

An FCR cannot be used as a 22 '

substitute for an NCR; nonconformances are not approved for 23 ;

24 "use-as-is" or " repair" without the filing of an NCR.

25 -

26 i When either the Project Site Engineering organization 27 i 28 ;

or the Engineering office in Houston approves an FCR, it 29 i 30 !

issues a Design Change Notice (DCN).

No such design changes 393] ;

are approved without issuance of a DCN.

The DCN is controlled 33 l; t

ensure that there is objective evidence that all of the 34 l

35 {

essential design control elements -- justification for the 36 j 37 ;

change, engineering evaluation of the change, assessment of 38 j 39 i the effect of the accumulated changes on plant design, 40 41 Change Review Board action, and revision of related documents --

42 !

43,

are sctisfied.

It is the DCN which is reviewed by the 44 i 45 {

Change Review Board and carefully controlled and integrated 46 1

l 47 l into the document control system for as-built verification.

48 l l

49 50 l

51 i

l

1 2

3!

4l Q. 18 What improvements have resulted from the change of forms?

i 7'

A.

la one purpose for changing the forms was to make 8;

9 10 l sure that Project employees fully appreciate the prohibition 11 !

against using the field design change system to get approval 12 '

13 '

for "use-as-is" disposition of nonconformances.

By changing 14 15 the form, and the name of the form, we eliminated the use of 16 17 i the Field Change Request in the same way as the old FREA had

,5'

{g been used.

We also changed the forms to require additional 20 l documentation of the design review process.

Thus we have 22 tightened our controls.

23 24 Q. 19 How well is the new system for field design 29 26 !

changes working?

27 i 28 '

A.

19 The new procedures were made effective on October 1, 29 -

30 l 1980.

EL&P has reviewed the content and the rate of generation 3~9 3

of FCR's since then.

The new system was implemented gradually, 33 34 and a few minor procedural adjustments have been necessary.

35 The new FCR and DCN forms have resulted in better documenta-36 ;

37 !

tion of the impact of and justification for design changes.

38 '

39 l Q. 20 What is the function of the B&R on-site Engineering 40 41 l staff?

42 43 -

A.

20 All design changes proposed at the STP site are 44 i 45 j submitted on an FCR form to the Project Site Engineering 46 ;'

organization,' a staff of Design Engineers located at the 47 48 i 49 i 90 !

51 l l....

l!

2.

3I 4l site.

This group is led by the Site Engineering Project j

5!

l 6l Manager, who reports to the B&R Engineering Project Manager.

1 7i The Site Engineering Project Manager is the principal inter-g 9!

face between B&R Engineering, which is primarily located in 10 l 11 I Houston, and the B&R Construction and QA organizations, 12 ;

1 3 ',

which are located at the site.

14 15 If the Project Site Engineering organization has the 16 ;

17 ;

necessary technical resources to evaluate the requested ig!

'g {

change, and the request is approved, the Site Engineering 30 I Project Manager issues a DCN.

If the proposed change requires gy 22 technical resources not available at the site, he forwards 23 i 24 I the proposal to the B&R Engineering Office in Houston for 25 ;

26 i evaluation.

27 l 28 :

The design verification process, whether at the site or 29 30 '

in Houston, includes independent engineering review and 31 '

32 verification to assure that the design change is consistent i

34 !

with the intended design criteria for the affected structure, 35 !

system, or component.

36 37 Q. 21 What is the composition of the B&R Project Site 38 i

39 Engineering Group, and how has it been enhanced?

40 41 i A.

21 The Project Site Engineering organization is 42 43 i made up of a group of qualified Engineers from each of the 44 i

45 design disciplines and the Engineering Quality organization.

I 46 47 i Qualification and training records are maintained on these 48 49 j

L' 2

3' 4j personnel.

Each Project Site Engineer is responsible to the fl Project Engineer of his discipline for the technical aspects 7 ',

of the job, is a member of that design discipline, is competent 8,

9' in the requirements and objectives of the original design, 10 ;

11 -

and has access to pertinent background information.

12 i 13 In response to the Order the Project Site Engineering 14 13 ;

organization was expanded from 40 to 80 engineers.

16 17 ;

Q. 22 How does the upgrading of the Project Site T.3' 1

Engineering Staff improve the design change system?

o, 2

A. 22 In the past, the Project Site Engineering organiza-21 22 tion had limited capability to approve design changes without 23 '

24 the prior approval of the Discipline Project Engineer at 25 26,

B&R's Houston Engineering Office.

With the new design 27 1 23 j change control system, however, both the responsibilities 29 30 -

and capabilities of the Project Site Engineering organization i

3~9 3

have been signi.ficantly expanded.

This has resulted in more 33 -

34 ;

timely and competent design review of the proposed changes 30 at the site.

36,

37 The NRC Investigation Report stated that some QC Inspectors 38 39 -

expressed uncertainty about whether Engineering was adequately 40 :

41 i informed of the conditions at the site when they were reviewing 42 i 43 ;

FREAs.

By locating more of the Engineering on field changes 44 l 45 j at the site, we have substantially enhanced the ability of 46 the Engineer to see for himself.

At the same time, we have 47 i

48

{

49 i

50 51

~.

c,..

l li 2e 3}1 increased the access of the QC Inspector to the Engineer.

4 5

6i Q. 23 How well has the upgrading of the on-site Engineer-ing Staff worked?

9 10l!

A. 23 The increased staff should permit Engineering to 11 l expedite the resolution of Field Change Requests.

Thus far 12 ;

13,

the number of FCR's dispositioned on site has been consistent 14 !

15 !

with that experienced before the changes, however the trend 16,

17,

is toward increased on-site disposition.

1gI

,'g i

B&R Site Engineering, with its enhanced staff, is now 20 able to resolve at the site certain problems which previously f2 '

required considerable communication with Houston Engineering.

24 i For example, the Site Engineering staff was instrumental in 25 '

26 l coordinating all of the final design effort required to 27 i 28 i support the last phase of the construction of the main 29 l 30,

reservoir and essential cooling pond embankments.

31 1 32 l Q. 24 Describe the composition and function of the new 13 '

34 l B&R Engineering board, the Change Review Board.

35 l A. 24 The Change Review Board has been established 37 within B&R Engineering as a further means of ensuring that 38 39 i the impact of site-initiated design changes on plant design 40 41,

have been assessed.

The primary function of this Board is 42 i 43 :

to provide a mechanism to ensure that design reviews have 44 !

45 {

been conducted by the proper engineering disciplines within 46 47 l the B&R Engineering organization.

48 l 49 50 51 ;

L 2

3 4

The Board is composed of representatives of the major 5'

6 engineering disciplines and Engineering Quality with a 7

Chairman appointed by the Engineering Project Manag*r.

8 9

Copies of each DCN are issued to the Board members 10 11 prior to each meeting.

Each Board member assesses the 12 13 impact of the change on his area of design responsibility 14 15 and identifies additional changes required to accomodate the 16 17 Proposed change in question.

During the meeting, the Board

'5

{g Chairman assures that such reviews have been conducted, all 20 additional changes have been identified, and the change has 22 been found technically acceptab? -

When all of these matters 23 24 have been resolved, the Board Ch. r=an signs the DCN form, 25 26 signifying Board approval of the change.

27 23 The prerequisites for issuance of a DCN include documenta-29 30 tion of the reason for the change, justification for the 39 3{

change, engineering evaluation of the change, and an assess '

'3 34,

ment of the effect of the change on the plant design.

It is 3

not the function of the Board to perform detailed reviews of 3

37 '

changes, but to ensure that such reviews have been completed 38 39 :

and to review the results thereof.

~

40 i j

i 41 Q. 25 Can you describe how this system has operated t

l 42 43 with respect to a recent DCN?

44 I

45 :

A.

25 An example of how the Change Review Board has 46 47 carried out this function is illustrated by a recent change 48 i 49 l 90 '

Li 2P 3l 4!

to the Technical Reference Document on " Piping Erection and 5i 5i Field Fabrication Criteria".

This proposed change was 7i 3l processed and sent to the Board by the Mechanical Discipline 9i gj to provide a more practical tolerance for fillet weld sizes 1i 2l n pipe supports.

The Board representative from the Supports 3!

Discipline determined that the Technical Reference Document, 5'

" Criteria for the Design of Pipe Supports" should also be 6.

7l revised.

Based on this determination another change was

&\\9i generated by the Supports Discipline.

0, 1:

Q. 26 How does the addition of the Change Review Board 23l improve the design change system?

4!

A. 26 The NRC Investigation Report questioned whether 5

6j the design change process adequately considered the cumulad 7i 8i tive impact of design changes.

The Change Review Board 9i 0'

proeides added assurance that each design change receives an 1l 2l adequate interdisciplinary review and that Engineering 3l adequately considers the cumulative effect of design changes.

45I Q. 27' How well has the Change Review Board system 6l 7

worked?

8 Ol 9

A. 27 The Change Review Board has worked well to date.

I 1!

The Board provides added assurance that the impact of a 2!

3l site-initiated design change will be fully evaluated by all 4!5j disciplines.

Although RL&P does not participate directly on 6

7 the Change Review Board, HL&P Engineering reviews and approves 8

3l 4I all DCN's written against basic design documents.

EL&P 5i g!

Engineering also reviews selected DCN's written against 7i gl detailed design documents.

9' 3l Q. 28 Describe the new design change tracking system.

2l.

1 A. 28 We are now using a computer based control system 3!

to keep track of design changes and provide "real-time" 4'

5 information on the status of design.

Each day a description 67l of each DCN processed that day is entered into the computer T',

gi by Engineering personnel at the site and in the Houston 0

office.

Each morning, a computer printout is made available g

2 to users of the design documents.

The printout, with respect 3

4 to a particular document, lists each approved DCN and its a

S, effective date.

This assures that each document user will 71 3,

have up-to-date information, including all changes, on the 9

0, relevant portion of the facility design described in that 9

,{;

document.

3l Q. 29 What are the benefits of the automated design 4i l

5l change tracking system?

r 7!

A.

29 The NRC Investigation Report found an instance 3'

l 9i where the records indicated that a design change used in 3i 1l construction was not used by the QC Inspector.

This automated 2l l

3!

system will assure that everyone is using the same design.

4 l

I It will also be used by Engineers considering design changes e \\

1 s

.7 Q. 31 Did the July 28 response to the Show Cause Order 5

g include a number of commitments by HL&P?

O A. 31 Yes.

The response described a number of changes 2

to be made and other commitments to be fulfilled.

We have 3

4 compiled a list of each of those commitments and developed a 5

6 control system to make sure the commitments are fulfilled on 7:

8 a timely basis.

These are identified in Attachment No. 1 to 9

0' my testimony.

1~

Q. 32 Were any additional commitments made by HL&P as 3l a result of the Show Cause Order?

4 3

A. 32 Yes.

HL&P and B&R management attended a public 6

7 meeting in Bay City on August 19, 1980, to answer NRC ques-8.

9I tions about HL&P's response to the Show cause Order.

The i

0; 1l NRC had published notices of the meeting well in advance and 2

3, there was a large audience.

Members of HL&P and B&R manage-4l l

5i ment made short presentations summarizing the July 28 response 6

and then the NRC Staff asked a number of questions about the I \\

8i details of how our technical studies were progressing and 9

0-1l t

I L

2, 3'

4 how we were implementing the changes we had described in our 5

~

6 written response.

Afterward the public was invited to ask 7

g questions and NRC, B&R and EL&P representatives responded.

9' Ol Answers of HL&P and B&R to some of the questions raised 1

at the meeting included additional commitments.

These 2,

3' commitments and their current status are also described in 4

5 Attachment No. 1.

6 7

Q. 33 Has HL&P completed satisfying all of the commit-El 9;

ments made in the response to the Show Cause Order and at 0'

the public meeting?

2 A. 33 As shown in Attachment No. 1, almost all of the 3

4 236 identified commitments have been completed.

Of those 5

6 that are not complete, many are continuing commitments that 7'

8 are being and will be fulfilled over the course of the 9

0 project, such as the periodic meeting of the QAMRB.

Other 1

2; commitments require long-term efforts that are underway, 3 i such as the reexamination and any necessary repair of safety 4

5 related welding.

Q. 34 Please describe the control system that HL&P has 5

6 adopted to track compliance with each commitment made by 7

g; HL&P.

9 A. 34 The system which we established consisted of g

1 several levels of review.

The initial version of the document 2*

3 attached to this testimony. as Attachment No. 1 was sent to 4

5 the NRC on September 18, 1980 as a baseline document for 6

74 comparison purpose.

Updates of the Commitment List have 5

g, been distributed to HL&P and B&R Executive Management, and 0

other personnel involved in our effort.

As I discussed

_9,f previously, this document showed the reference of the commitment 3

4 source, for example, the public meeting or the written Show 5

6 Cause response.

It also shows the in-house due date for 7

8 completion and the status.

The List was revised in March to 9

0 indicate the status of the NRC review.

So this List is part 9

~

of the system.

3>

The next integral part was a weekly update of the 4

c i status of the items.

B&R supplied HL&P with a weekly update 6

7 which was then distributed.

I used these documents to 8

9 monitor the progress of B&R and EL&P on these commitments.

0:

i 1

The backup to these lists was a set of files kept by I

2 3:

our site QA personnel.

For each Show Cause Order commitment 4:

5I ur site QA personnel would either get a copy of the document 6'

l that closed out the commitment and put it in the file or l

8-9, 0l 1i l :

I

L L

3<

1 placed a reference page in the file.

In either case EL&P 5

i!

personnel reviewed the documents to satisfy ourselves that i

3, the commitment was being implemented.

)

Q. 35 Does this system assure that each commitment

)

L will be fulfilled on a timely basis?

2, 3'

A. 35 Yes.

The system established a working list with 4

5 assigned responsibilities and due dates.

It provided a 5

7 helpful mechanism for my use in determining the management 5

g efforts required to make sure the commitments were met on 0

time.

That it has worked is shown by the status of the 9-n commitments.

Action has been taken on all of the commitments 3'

4 and NRC has inspected using our commitment list as a checklist 5

6 and has closed out most of the commitments.
