Dear Mr. Breed:
SUBJECT:
NRC ACCEPTANCE OF REVISED GENERAL ELECTRIC QUALITY ASSURANCE TOPICAL REPORT 5
The Breed /Haass letter of August 26, 1980 submitted Revision 2 to General Electric's Topical Report, NED0-ll209-04A, " Nuclear Energy Business Group BWR Quality Assurance Program Description," for staff review and approval.
Revision 2 revised the topical report to reflect organizational changes and GE's alternate position to Regulatory Guide 1.123, Rev.1, " Quality Assurance Requirements for Control and Procu;ement of Items and Services for Nuclear Power Plants."
Based on our review and evaluation of Revision 2, we find that all applicable requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 are included in the QA program require-ments. Therefore, your revised topical report is acceptable, and you may implement it upon issuance of the revision. We do not intend to repeat our review of this topical report when it is referenced in an application.
To use the General Electric topical report in future license applications, appli-cants need only reference this topical report in Section 17.1 of the Safety Analysis Report.
In addition, this QA program may be implemented immediately on all ongoing activities.
In this regard, identify in your transmittal letter those existing con-tracts that will be covered by Revision 2 to NED0-11209-04A.
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. Programmatic changes by General Electric to this topical report are to be submitted to NRC for review prior to implementation. Organizational changes are to be submitted no later than 30 days after announcement.
Please replace our letter of January 21, 1980 with a copy of this letter, renumber the report NED0-ll209-04A, Revision 2, and resubmit 35 copies of the revision to the NRC.
Should you have any questions regarding our review or if we can provide assistance, please feel free to contact Mr. James Conway at (301) 492-7741.
Sincerely, W
