encio u REQUEST FOR A'G T10NAL IfJOR:'.!CN SNUPPS FSAR I.
SNUPPS QA PROGRAM - DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION 1.
In several plar.es (SNUPPS General page 17.1-30, Callaway Site Addendum pages 17.l-16 and 178.1-17, and Wolf Creek Site Addendum pages 17.1-34 and 178-16a),
Revision 2 states that the extent of acceptance nethods and associated verifica-tion activities will vary as a function of the relative complexity of the pur-chased item or service and the supplier's past performance.
It is the staff's position that the extent of quality verification should also reflect the item's or service's importance to safety or relative safety importance.
Revision 2 then goes on to state that procedures will provida for the acceptance of simple "off-the-shelf" items based exclusively on receiving inspection with no quality verification documentation requirements.
It is the staff's position that the involved design engineering organization and quality assurance organi-zation should jointly determine the extent of inspection verification and the quality verification documentation requirements based on the item's end use.
Revise the submittal to reflect the above positions.
2.
In the last line on page 178.1-1 of the Callaway Addenda and starting at the bot-tom of page 178-1 of the Wolf Creek Addendum, clarify what is meant by " project quality personnel" and "the quality portion of the quality assurance program."
3.
The Wolf Creek Addendum indicates on page 178-3b that the Project Quality Con-trol itanager is responsible for preparation of QC Procedures and instructions to control the activities of QC Personnel.
Indicate who, by position title, has these responsibilities at Callaway.
4.
Item d on page 178.1-5 of the Callaway Addenda and item e on page 178-3b of the Wolf Creek Addendum indicate that engineering and inspection personnel "perfom supplier / subcontractor audit, receiving, in-process, and final inspections."
Discuss the specific responsibilities and the rationale for the use of engineer-ing personnel to perform these QA/QC functions.
S.
The Construction Engineering Managers (CEM) for Daniel appear to have different responsibilities at the different sites. That is, at Callaway (but not at Wolf Creek) the CEM is responsible for:
c) Generating contract packages in conjunction with the Purchasing function.
d) Coordinating engineering matters with the Design Engineer.
h) Establishing and implementing procedures for the collection and consolida-tion of as-built information.
At Wolf Creek (but not at Callaway) the CEM is responsible for:
e) Controlling fabrication and installa' tion with a system of documented pro-cedures and instructions.
.. (cf. Callaway Addenda pages 178.19 and 178.1-9 with !!alf Creek Addencum pages 178-6and178-7.)
Clarify these apparent anomalies.
6.
Revision 2 has modified or deleted several commitrents in the earlier version of the Wolf Creek Site Addendum.
Discuss the significance of the changes noted below.
a) The Manager Quality Assurance used to participate as a member of the SNUPPS OA Committee but now "provides a member" for the SNUPPS QA Committee (page 17.1-5).
b) The Quality Assurance Division no longer reviews vendor lists and bid selections (deleted from page 17.1-6 of Revision 0). Apparently the Quality Assurance Division now only audits (per page 17.1-33 of Revision 2).
c) The Quality Assurance Division is no longer responsible for the storage and preservation of general office QA records (cf. pages 17.1-6 of Revision 0 and Revision 2).
d) Procedures which define the interfaces and define the boundary between com-mon activities and the activities which are unique to each utility have been deleted.f. rom the "SNUPPS Standard Quality Assurance Procedures Manual (cf. pages 17.1-10 of Revision 11/79 and Revision 2).
