6 Jersey Central Power E!EEEE- & Light Company III. OPERATIONAL QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM The Operational Quality Assurance Plan establishes Jersey Central Power & Light Company's basic commitment to quality assurance as it relates to OCNGS. It addresces both Jersey Central Power & Light Company policy and the Federal, State, and Local Regulatory Authority requirements. The basic purpose of tnis Operational Quality Assurance Plan is to establish the principles which, when implemented, will provide that level of quality assurance which is appropriate to each specific quality-affecting activity performed by or for the Jersey Central Power & Light Company. The basic objective of quality assurance is to provide for: public health and safety, plant personnel safety, plant reliability and system economy in the most ef fective and efficient manner. This Plan recognizes that the relative relationship between the basic objectives of quality assurance, as stated above, and its impact on the decision making process, varies with different systems and activities. As a result, the degree or intensity of the application of any specific item in this Plan will differ from system tc system and activity to activity. When a specific requirement is established because of a particular need or regulation, this requirement will be addressed in a fashion which will limit its applicability. When a specific requirement is not limited, it applies to all activities and systems within the scope of the Operational Quality Assurance Program, although the degree and intensity may differ from application to application.
The degree or intensity to which the requirements of this Plan and its implementing procedures are applied to radioactive material packaging which is within the scope of 10CFR71, Appendix E will be based upon the following considerations concerning the complexity and proposed use of the package and its components:
! 1. The importance of a malfunction or failure of the item i to safety; 1
1 2. The design and fabrication complexity or uniqueness of the item;
- 3. The need for special controls and surveillance over processes and equipment;
- 4. The degree to which functional compliance can be l demonstrated by inspection or test; and
- 5. The quality history and degree of standardization of the item.

The Director-QAD has the direct responsibility for ensuring that this Operational Quality Assurance Plan is implemented and that it provides for adequate control of all programatic activities affecting quality. He is also responsible for ensuring that the Plan is modified and updated as standards, regulations, results, and experience dictate.
Revisions to the Plan shall be considered significant if they alter the degree of compliance with regulatory requirements. Changes to the organization in assignment of responsibilities to the extent described below the Vice Presideet's level shall not be considered significant except in the area of Quality Assurance. Changes in name or title with no basic change in function shall not be considered significant. Editorial changes and typos which do not change the intent of the words or scope of the Program shall not be conaidered significant. Significant Plan revisions shall be submitted to the NRC, NRC approval is required prior to imple-mentation. Changes considered by the Director-QAD to be not significant can be issued with the approval of the Director-QAD and the Vice President-Nuclear Assurance. The Director-QAD is responsible for notifying the NRC of such changes to the Plan within 30 days of the change.
The Operational Quality Assurance Program is described by a written policy, the Plan and implementing procedures. The basic company policy is established by the Presidents in their Policy Statement. This Operational Quality Assurance Plan is approved and concurred with by the effected Vice Presidents and the Director-Quality Assurance. The procedures, which are the Operational Quality Assurance Program's detailed requirements, are originated and approved as described in Section X (Management and Use of Documents) of this Plan.

The Director-Training and Education is responsible for maintaining a comprehensive training program for GPUNC personnel. The training program will include, as appropriate: lectures, formal schools, job experience, and individual study. He also ensures that quality assurance indoctrination is given to GPUNC personnel whose job responsibility will affect quality.
Each Director maintains training programs and procedures to ensure the proper job related training and qualification of his personnel. The Vice President-0CNGS is responsible for the indoctrination and training of plant staff personnel performing activities affecting quality or operations, end for ensuring that, where required, operators are formally licensed or qualified. In the case of formal classroom training, documentation of material content, attendance, time and date, instructor, and, where appli-cable, any documented results of training shall be maintained as evidence of completion.
The control of contractors who perform nuclear related engineering, construction or other technical services is specified in Section V (PROCUREMENT CONTROL) of this Plan.
The Director-Station Operations is responsible for maintaining a comprehensive training program for both original training and retraining of Fire Brigade personnel.
Each Director and Manager is responsible for specifying which requirements a contractor will utilize in the performance of that work which is performed under the guidance of his organization. These requirements shall be specified in the appropriate procurement documents.
For nuclear safety applications, the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC), the Independent Safety and Review Group (ISRG), the General Office Review Board (GCRB) and Nuclear Safety Assessment (NSAD) provide: safety reviews of procedures, tests, experiments, and modifications; review of plant operations; investigation of Reportable Occurrences, and Technical Specification Violations, etc., as required in the OCNGS Technical Speci-fications, Section 6.5.
For activities falling within the scope of Part I of the Quality Assurance Systems List, GPUNC shall utilize the guidance of the following documents as follows:

Manual. GPUNC believes that the requirements specified in the Job Description Manual meet the intent, and in many cases, exceed the require-ments of ANSI N18.1. In certain specific cases, we envision that there may be individuals in the future who will be qualified by GPUNC because it feels the individual is capable of performing a job even though he does not meet the detailed guidance contained in ANSI N18.1 with respect to length of experience and formal training.
B. In the event there is a conflict between ANSI N18.1 and the OCNGS Technical Specifications, on personnel qualifications, the OCNGS Technical Specifications shall apply.
- 2. Regulatory Guide 1.28, Rev. 2, February 1979, " Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Design and Construction)".
The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the following clarification:
A. The Operational Quality Assuranca Plan has been written to implement the requirements of 10CFR50 Appendix B as was ANSI N45.2. The content and level of detail in both the Operational Quality Assurance Plan and ANSI N45.2 are essentially the same; and, therefore, GPUNC considers that its Operational Quality Assurance Plan parallels the intent of ANSI N45.2 and is its mechanism for the implementation of 10CFR50 Appendix B. For this reason, a specific commitment to ANSI N45.2 does not enhance the Operational Quality Assurance Plan.
- 3. Regulatory Guide 1.30 - August 11, 1972, " Quality Assurance Requirements for the Installation, Inspection, and Testing of Instrumentation and Electric Equipment". The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the following clarification:

The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with'the following clarifications:
A. ANSI N18.7 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. Section C.4.a of the Regulatory Guide is interpreted to mean audits will be made once each 6 months to verify the nonconformances and corrective action program is properly implemented and documented, particularly as related to actions taken to correct deficiencies that affect items important to safety.
This is covered by the OCNGS Technical Specifications.
C. Section 5.2.8 of ANSI N18.7 titled " Surveillance Testing and Inspection".

Tha Qunlity Asturenca Program complixa with this Guida with tha following elsrificction:
A. ANSI N45.2.1 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. Section 4.0 of ANSI N45.2.1 states that items are not to be delivered to the point of installation sooner than necessary unless the installation location is considered a better storage area. The strategy for the storage of items is based on many factors, one of which is to not adversely affect the items acceptability while in storage. If other factors make it desirable to store an item at the installation site, and the location is -
acceptable from a quality standpoint, it is not our intention to eliminate that site as a potential storage area.
C. Section 6.0 of ANSI N45.2.1 states that where environ-mental contamination causes degradation of quality, seals are installed and the item is tagged with identifications and instructions for seal removal.
GPUNC utilizes procedural controls which specify the authorization requirements for seal removal. " Tags" are not normally utilized.
D. In that this is an Operational Quality Assurance Plan, many aspects of this standard are not ay;11 cable, except possibly on rare occasions. For this reason, CPUNC does not intend to have established procedures for all aspects of this ANSI Standard.
- 6. Regulatory Guide 1.38 - Rev. 2, May 1977, " Quality Assurance Requirements for Packaging, Shipping, Receiving, Storage, and Handling of Items fo'r Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants" The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the following clarification:
A. ANSI N45.2.2 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. Section 7.4 of N45.2.2 states that a system should be established to indicate acceptability of all equipment i and rigging after each inspection, specify control of nonconforming lifting equipment, and supplement periodic inspections with special visual and nondestruc-tive examinations and dynamic load tests. In lieu of this, GPUNC does perform dynamic load tests on new
! equipment, preventive maintenance on cranes, non-dest:cuctive examination of lifting hooks annually, and a visual inspection of lifting equipment prior to use.

The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the following clarifications:
9 A. ANSI N45.2.3 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. Section 2.1 of ANSI N45.2.3 states that cleanness requirements for housekeeping activities are estab-lished on the basis of zone designations. GPUNC does not intend to utilize zone designations. There are specific requirements for general plant cleanness.
When planning a specific a'ctivity, one of the many items considered is cleanness requirements and specific requirements will be established when necessary. In '
addition, clothing requirements, access restrictions, etc. are governed by health physics practices and/or are established for specific situations.
C. Section 3.2.3 of ANSI N45.2.3 discusses fire protection. 7 Except for the quality assurance aspects of fire protection, no specific commit =ents are made in this Plan. As part of other activities, GPUNC has estab-lished positions or commitments relating to fire 1
i safety or protection.
D. ANSI N45.2.3 discusses construction related aspects, such as: temporary construction facilities, ex-ceptionally large accumulations of materials, refuse .
i and garbage du=ps, and the mobilization and deploy-ment of construction tools, supplies, and equipment.
These aspects of ANSI N45.2.3 are not applicable to an operational plant and are not considered in GPUNC operationally-oriented procedures.

A. ANSI N101.4-1972 will be used in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assarance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. b' hen performing coating repairs or touch-up, the original coatings and application requirements will most likely be utilized for compatability with ex-isting' coating systems. For this reason, it may not be possible to co= ply with all requirements which are imposed on the coatings or coating manufacturer.
- 9. Regulatory Guide 1.58 - August 1973, " Qualification of Nuclear Power Plant Inspection, Examination, and Testing Personnel" -
The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the following clarifications:
A. ANSI N45.2.6 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. The Quality Assurance Organization is responsible for Quality Assurance including a significant portion of Quality Control; however, there are typical quality control functions which rightfully belong to other organizations. Some examples are: performing surveil-lance testing of installed plant equipment, taking dimensions on parts that GPUNC manufactures; and obtaining cycle times on valves. The Site Quality Assurance organization, in respect to the preceding examples, is performing a verification function. It will not generally retake all measurements taken by the mechanic; but it may observe the taking of measure-ments or take spot measurements to verify the correct-ness of the mechanic's measurements. In the area of surveillance testing, it may observe the performance of the surveillance testing to assure compliance with established procedures, etc., on a sample basis. In i the case of the mechanic, operator, etc. , at an opera-ting nuclear power plant, the plant individual actually does maintenance or operations work and as part of this work, makes measurerents or conducts tests of operability. The type of inspection and test work l done by Oyster Creek Station personnel vill normally I fall under- the concept of calibration, repair, or operation, as defined in ANSI N18.1, and, therefore, comes under the guidance of ANSIN18.1, Section 3.2.4 as being one of the skills required of these people.
The Quality Assurance personnel more closely parallel

l
in ANSI N45.2.6, and therefore, are under the require-ments of ANSI N45.2.6. In this light, GPUNC will:
- 1) As specified in this Plan, utilize the guidance of ANSI N18.1.- 1971 for plant personnel performing inspection, examina-tion, and testing functions associated with normal operation of the plant, such as surveillance testing, maintenance, and certain technical reviews routinely assigned to the on-site operating organization.
- 2) As specified in this Plan, utilize the guidance of ANSI N45.2.6 - 1973 for Quality Assurance personnel whose qualifi-cations are not required to meet those specified in ANSI N16.1 and who are per-forming inspection, examination and testing activities during the operational phase of the plant. The Q.A. experience cited for Levels I, II, and III shall be interpreted to mean actual experience in carrying out the types of inspection, examination, and testing activities being performed, or else in performing the types of activities being inspected, examined or tested.
- 10. Regulatory Guide 1.64 - Revision 2, June 1976, " Quality Assurance Requirements for the Design of Nuclear Power Plants" The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the follouing clarification:
A. ANSI N45.2.11 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurcace Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
- 11. Regulatory Guide 1.74 - February 1974 " Quality Assurance Terms and Definitions" The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with the following clarification:
A. GPUNC has chosen to include definitions in its j Operational Quality Assurance Plan. It considers these definitions as its alternative to committing to this Regulatory Guide.

mm The Quality Azzurrncs Program compliss with this Guida with the following clerificationa:
A. ANSI N45.2.9 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction with the Operational Quality Assurance Plan vice ANSI N45.2.
B. Section 1.2 of ANSI N45.2.9, Applicabilitv, with respect to contractors, suppliers, vendors, etc.,
GPUNC will establish specific requirements for the collection, storage, and maintenance of Quality Assurance Records and impose them through procurement docum2nts. In addition to the consid-
. erations in this standard, consideration will be given to the specific standards of the supplier industry .
involved and requirements will be established.
C. Section 5.5 of ANSI N45.2.9, Safekeeping, GPUNC will establish security measures which will restrict access to record storage areas and will provide protection against record loss through larceny and vandalism.
D. With regard to the storage of records, GPUNC utilizes the duplicate file concept and has duplicate files in widely separated locations, but there are certain records, (Single Copy Records), which are not good candidates for duplication because of the nature of the record. Examples of these exceptions are strip charts, radiographs, and other recorder charts.
E. GPUNC utilizes a vault for Single Copy Records. Single Copy Records are collected on a " Day to Day" basis for a period of time which is dependent upon the nature of the record and the need for accces to that record. We do not envision that this time period will exceed six (6) months. During this time, the records will be kept in .n air conditioned, fire resistive building, such as the main and auxiliary office buildings at the plant, on metal shelves or in metal desks or file cabinets.
Strip charts (a major portion of the Single Copy Records) will be kept on steel shelves in the plant Document Center which is located in an air conditioned, fire resistive building. If Single Copy Records are kept on site in excess of six months, they will be kept in a one hour rated file cabinet or better. These file cabinets will be located in a fire . resistive, air conditioned building.
F. Single Copy Records may have to be removed from the vault, from time to time, for reference. Examples could include operational needs, NRC inspections, and
- answering NRC inquiries. In the event this need occurs,
- the records will be safeguarded in the same manner as Item 11.E above.

The Quality Assurance Program complies with this Guide with.
the following clarifications:
A. ANSI M45.2.13 Guidance will be utilized in conjunction l aith the Operational Qaality Assurance Plan vice
( ANSI N45.2.
l B. When establishing supplier Quality Assurance l Program requirements and evaluating Quality
[ Assurance Programs, GPUNC shall utilize Section VII of this Plan which may include imposing one or more of the following documents:
i
( TITLE PAGE REVISION NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance Plan 55 5 April 1,1981 e
L
- 2) Operational Quality Assurance Plan and Program (excluding commitment ANSI N45.2 Guidance);
- 3) ANSI N45.2; 4-) Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (for Section III code work);
- 5) Other National Consensus Codes (when that code is specified and haa quality requirements included as part of the code); ,
C.Section VII of this Plan clearly defines the CPUNC mechanism for evaluating and controlling suppliers.
The program defined therein is complete and detailed, and is the methanism for accomplishing such, activities.
In this regard, no specific commitment is made to ANSI N45.2.13 in this area.
D. GPUNC utilizes Certificates of Compliance for many purposes varying trom: a distributor certifying that it provided a commercial quality component, manufac-tured by an organization other than the distributor', in accordance with ratber straightforward p'rocurement documents; to, a manafacturer who manufactures ex-tremely complex components to very detailed specifications.
In the first case, the distributor may act as a middle-man whose activities are nothing more than ordering a standard catalog numbered item, storing it, and eventu-ally delivering it to the customer. In this case, the procurement documents may require that a responsible individual in the organizatioi document the fact that the distributor is providing an item which meets the procurement document requirements. It is often a straightforward task to verify the certificate's validity by performing a one to one correlation-of the actual item part numbers to the item part numbers on the procurement documents during receipt inspection.
In the second case, procurement documents may require that the supplier's quality program detail the mechanism for preparing and approving Certificates of Compliance as well as detailed directions that must be included in
- the certificate. In this case, many mechanisms (such
! as Audit, Surveillance, and Shipment Release) are utilized, as necessary, to verify the validity of the certificate. In conclusion, the uses of a certificate of Compliance are many and varied, and the degree of administrative control and certificate complexity is a function of the item being procured.

- 1. Design, Modification, and Addition N,D,F A. '1he Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for controlling design work and administering the design control activities (including design interfaces) relating to the modifi-cation or addition of structures, components, and systems.
Engineering will be performed by either GPUNC personnel or organi-zations providing services to the company.
N,D,F B. The Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for the preparation and maintenance of the various Quality Assurance Systems Lists (QASL). '1he Quality Assurance Systems Lists are those lists which identify the various systems, parts, components, and materials which are within the scope of a specific set of quality assurance requirements, such as: 10CFR50, Appendix B; Quality Group D Augmented; and Fire Protection for Nuclear Safety Related Equipment. The Director-QAD is responsible for reviewing the various Quality Assurance Systems Lists for concurrence on quality assurance aspects.
N,D,F C. The Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for determining when a system Boundary and Classifice.cion Book is necessary. If determined that it is necessary, tLe Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for its prepr. ration, approval and maintenaace. The Director QAD is responsible for reviewiv[ " ,
the System Boundary and Classification Book for concurrence in quality assurance aspects.
N,D,F D. The primary purpose of the Quality Assurance Systems List is to identify those systems, sub-systems, and materials which have materials, parts, and/or components that are subject to qualitf assurance requirements in design, engineering, maintenance, repair, replacement, modification, addition, testing, operation, and procurement activities. It is not the case that all materials, l parts and components within systems need to be within the scope of a specific Quality Assurance Program. For this reason, the concept of a System Boundary and Classification Book was estab-lished. The System Boundary and Classification Book, when utili-zed, refines the Quality Assurance Systems List by clear, y identifying the specific materials, parts and components within the scope of the specific Quality Assurance Program so that those parts and components outside the scope can be excluded from the extensive quality assurance requirements. However, once a system is added to the Quality Assurance Systems List all materials, parts, and components shall have the specific quality assurance Title Page Revision No. Date l
Operational Quality Assurance Plan 59 5 A Pril 1, 1981 4
M
requirements imposed, unless the system boundary and classification is refined in the System Boundary and Classification Book and the material, part, or component is not included. The determination of whether an item is to be included in the System Boundary and Classification Book, as an item within the specific Quality Assurance Program is based upon utilizing regulatory guidance, such as: the Code of Federal Regulations, Regulatory Guides, Codes, Standards, the FSAR, Safety Technical Specifications, and the Fire Protection Plan for the specific station. In the absence of a defined boundary and classification and on a case-by-case basis as needed for activities such as maintenance, repair, replacement, modification, design, testing, operation, and procurement, a determination shall be made by the responsible engineering group in accordance with criteria which has been established and approved by the Vice President-Technical Functions and concurred with by the Director-QAD; at which time, the necessary Component Classification Specification page can be prepared and incorporated into the System Boundary and Classifica-tion Book in accordance with document control procedures. The determination that a component is not within the scope of quality assurance will also be documented. Once the determination is made, the activity which requires the classification can proceed before the updating of the System Boundary and Classification Book, because regardless of whether the component is inside or outside the quality assurance scope, all other information in the Book is available from other basic sources.
A classification decision is required only if it is desired not to apply quality assurance requirements. If quality assurance requirements are to be applied based on the Quality Assurance Systems List classification, the classification is not required since it could only result in requiring the same or less stringent requirements.
A secondary function of the System Boundary and Classification Book is to specify basic codes, standards, and regulatory require-ments for each category.
N,D,F E. With regard to a modification or addition, the Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for the proper determination of the sys;.am classification in accordance with the Quality Assurance Systems List or the System Boundary and Classification Book. In addition, he is responsible for evaluating whether or not a change to either the Quality Assurance Systems List or System Boundary and Classification Book is required as a result of a modification or addition.
N,D,F F. The purpose of design control is to assure that regulatory requirements and design bases are incorporated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. Design control is imple-mented by means of procedures which require that design activi-ties include: design considerations; design review requirements; TITLE PAGE REVISION NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance plan 60 5 April 1, 1981 l
internal and external intsrfacs control considsretiens; spicifi-cation preparation; and design document review approval, distribution, control, and revision requirements. Among other things, satisfactory design control requires that fire protection design criteria be included i the design and a design verifi-cation be performed. This is factored into the design like all other design considerations.
N,D,F G. The Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for the preparation, review, concurrence, approval and implementation of design control procedures in accordance with Appendix B of this Plan.
N,D,F H. The Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for ensuring that modifications and additions to existing systems and equipment are designed, procured, and installed in accordance with requirements which are either equal to or better than the original requirements, or consistent with currently acceptable requirements. In the special case of commercial grade material, parts and equipment, the suitability of that classification will -
be reviewed for each application by the responsible engineering group who will document the results of the review identifying the bases on which it was considered to be acceptable.
N,F I. Design bases shall include, as appropriate: physics, stress, materials, thermal, hydraulic, radiation and accident analysis; appropriate design bases, codes, standards and regu-lations; fire protection requirements; inspection and test requirements, as applicable to assure that the design may be surveillance tested and inservice inspected, as appropriate; acceptance and rejection criteria; quality assurance / quality control; compatability of materials; and accessibility for inservice inspection, maintenance, repair and replacement.
N,D,F J. Design documents and specifications shall include the identification and documentation of the invoked design bases; regulatory requirements; codes; standards; inspection and test criteria; quality requirements; and measures provided as appro-priate to assure that design requirements are factored into fabrication and installation inspection and testing and are
- adequately controlled.
l N,D,F K. Design activities shall be documented in sufficient detail to permit evaluation and checking by competent personnel other than those who perform the original design.
N,D L. Among other things, satisfactory design control requires that an independent design review or design verification be performed. The independent design verification or checking process shall be accomplished by means of design reviews, alter-nate calculations, or qualification testing. This verification shall be performed by competent individuals or groups other than TITLE PAGE REVISION NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance Plan 61 5 April 1,1981 I
those who performed the original design; however, they may be from the same organization. Individuals performing design verification should not:
(1) have immediate supervisory responsibility for the individual performing the design, (2) specify a singular design approach, (3) have ruled out certain design considerations, or (4) have established the design inputs for the particular design aspect being verified.
The use of the originator's supervisor for design verification is permissible, however, it should be restricted to special situ-ations where the supervisor is the only individual within the design organization competent to perform the verification.
Justification for such use should be documented along with the extant to which the supervisor's input into the design aspect is being verified.
N,D,F M. Design changes, including field changes, shall be reviewed and approved by the 'same procedures and organizations that re-viewed and approved the original design. In the event this is not practical, the review and approval may be by another design organization provided it has sufficient:
a) Pertinent background information b) Competence in the specific area of design interest
- c) Understanding of the original design intent and requirements N,D,F N. Proposed engineering modification and addition projects (including design, engineering, and material procurement) are the responsibility of the Vice President-Technical Functions and controlled by means of written procedures. The coordination of design projects includes the necessary interfaces with Main-tenance and Construction, Operations, contractors, and the Quality Assurance Department in regard to engineering project scheduling; engineering document review, concurrence and approval; engineering record preparation; and project closeout.
N,D,F O. Design documents, specifications, drawings, installation re-t quirements, and changes thereto, are prepared, reviewed, con-curred with and approved in accordance with Appendix B of this Plan.
N P. Proposed plant modifications, which aff ect nuclear safety, are reviewed and approved by the Director-Station Operations, Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC), the Independent Safety Review Group (ISRG), and the General Office Review Board (GORB)

N,D,F C. The Director-Station Operations is responsible for the determination of whether an activity is to be classified as a modification, addition, maintenance, repair, or replacement activity. In the event the activity is initiated outside the station, other organizations may have previously made such a determination. In this case, the Director-Station Operations is responsible for concurring with the determination. !
N,D,F D. Maintenance is considered to be of two types:
(1) Routine maintenance is maintenance which is completely within the capability of the station and does not require Technical Functions or Maintenance and Ccnstruc-tion department's participation. It includes both preventive and corrective maintenance as defined in Section I (DEFINITIONS) of this Plan.
! TITLE RAGE REVISION NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance Plan 65 5 April 1, 1981
7 D
(2) Non-routine maintenance is either preventiva or csr-rective maintenance which requires Technical Functions or Maintenance and Construction departments assistance because it involves unusual conditions or major amounts of work warrt.nting detailed preparations. In the case Maintenance and Construction departments exercises technical or supervisory control of certain aspects of the maintenance, as applicable. All maintenance which does not restore safety related items to their original condition (i.e., involve some sort of modification or change) are included in this category.
N,D,F E. Repairs are considered to be a subset of maintenance as defined in Section I (DEFINITIONS) of this Plan.
N,D,F F. Replacements are considered to be of two types:
(1) Routine replacements are normal actions to replace systems, parts, or components and do not require special engineering. A replacement is different than maintenance in that it involves the replacement of a system, part, or component, rather than maintaining or fixing an existing item. To veld a valve would be either a maintenance or repair activity, but to replace the valve with another valve which meets the original specification and/or drawing requirements would be a replacement. To replace a valve with another valve, which does not comply with the original specifications and/or drawings would be a modification and controlled in accordance with Section IV.1 of this Plan, except in those cases where the replacement component is within the design envelope of the component that is being replaced; this type of replacement would not be classified as a modification.
(2) Non-routine replacement is identical to routine re-placement except that special engineering or main-tenance input is required for the same reasons as non-routine maintenance and is handled in the same manner as non-routine maintenance, i.e., Technical Functions and/or Maintenance and Construction departments exercise technical control of the replacement, as applicable.
N,D,F G. The Vice President-Technical Functions provides technical support in the area of maintenance or replacement work. This technical support may include calculations, design work, procure-ment, specification preparation, recommendations, etc. , but it is only considered to be non-routine when Technical Functions is required to design and/or engineer the maintenance or replacement work.
TITLE RAGE REVISION NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance Plan 66 5 April 1, 1981
N,D,F H. The Maintenance and Construction Director-0C provides technical assistance, supervision and/or labor to accomplish station maintenance or replacement work, but it is only con-sidered to be non-routine when Maintenance and Construction exercises direct technical and/or supervisory control over the performance of the actual maintenance or replacement work. In this regard, the Director-Maintenance and Construction maintains a staff of technically qualified personnel to augment the OCNGS technical staff. These personnel are made available by the Maintenance and Construction Director, OC upon the request of the Director-Station Operations. He also maintains an organization of maintenance crews to augment the station's maintenance staff.
These personnel are provided upon request and supervised by the Director-Maintenance and Construction.
N,D,F I. The Director-Station Operations is responsible for the determination of whether or not a maintenance or replacement activity is within the station staff's capability (and hence is handled as a routine maintenance or replacement activity) or if Technical Functions and/or Maintenance and Construction depart-ment's assistance is required and the activity is to be handled as non-routine. When a maintenance or replacement activity is ,
not within the capability (from a manpower or technical standpoint-)
of the station staff, the Director-Station Operations requests assistance from the Vice President-Technical Functions for engineering assistance and the Maintenance and Construction Director, OC for maintenance expertise, supervision and/or labor.

- 2. Control of Purchased Material, Equipment, and Services N,P,D,F A. In determining the extent and methods of controlling purchased materials, equipment, and services, consideration shall be given to the significance, complexity, and uniqueness of the procure-ment. The extent of control required for assuring proper function-ability and long term performance may depend heavily on the item's complexity, the-industry experience (or lack of) and the specific' contractor's experience in accomplishing the required activities .
N,P,D,F B. For those items which are identified on the Quality Assurance Systems List as being nuclear safety related, GPUNC retains the responsibility to assure that the applicable parts of 10CFR50, Appendix B are included in the procurement documents and imple-mented by the contractor. When a contractor organization is required to perform its functions in accordance with a documented quality program, it may utilize its own approved program or work to another approved program such as: the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station Operational Quality Assurance Program or an approved contractor program when a subcontractor is involved. In any event, the requirements shall be clearly defined.
N,P,D,F C. GPUNC controls the quality aspects of procurement through its Procurement Verification Program. This program is' documented by means of administrative control procedures and consists of various elements, including: Procurement Document Review, Contractor Evaluation, Contractor Audit, Contractor Surveillance, Shipment Release, and Receipt Inspection. The Director-QAD is responsible for the administration of this program as well as establishing and maintaining the appropriate organizational interfaces to make the program effective. The principal organi-zations with which interfaces are established include: Material Management, Technical Functions, Maintenance and Construction, Nuclear Aosurance, OCNGS Operations and Radiological and Environ-mental Controls.
N,P,F D. Contractor Evaluation is a major constituent of the Procure-ment Verification Program. It is based upon correlating the available inputs from the other elements of the program to determine the initial and continued qualification of those contractors with whom GPUNC does business. The correlation of this information provides the basis for the Contractor Classi-fication List. This List is a list of those contractors which have been evaluated by GPUNC and for whom a perfor=ance classi-fication has been established. This classification varies from not qualified to provide various products to fully qualified in accordance with 10CFR50, Appendix B. The classification of a contractor and an item's complexity and/or importance to safety establishes the extent of the application of other Procurement Verification Program elements.
i TITLE PAGE REVISON NO. DATE i
Operational Quality Assurance Plan 74 5 April 1, 1981
3 N,P,F E. Prior to placing a contractor on the Contractor Classificat cn List, an initial contractor evaluation is accomplished. The extent of this initial evaluation will vary depending upon the controls which are imposed on the procurement, the contractor's performance, and the item's complexity and/or importance to safety. For example, when procuring mass produced or off-the-shelf items, only a check of past performance may be necessary; on the other hand, when procuring complex important items, a very thorough review will be performed, which may include a facility survey.
N,P,F F. The Director-QAD is responsible for the evaluation of a contractor from a quality standpoint. In the' performance of the initial evaluation, Operational Quality Assurance may utilize one of several methods depending on the contractor and the importance and/or complexity of the product, material, or service. In critical cases, when a contractor.has not been evaluated by a qualified evaluation organization, the evaluation may include a formal quality assurance program review and a facility survey.
In cases where a qualified evaluation organization (defined as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the Coordinating Agency for Supplier Evaluation and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission) has completed a suitable evaluation, GPUNC may 1 it its evaluation to verifying that the qualified evaluation organi-zation's evaluation is appropriate and current. When the quality of commercially available items is acceptable, a contractor may be evaluated on past experience and/or the' quality standards generally established by the contractor, competition, and/or the specific industry involved. When the quality requirements of a product or service are minimal, the type of evaluation may be even less restrictive; acceptance upon receipt may be sufficient.
When the impact that a distributor may have on a product is assessable during receipt inspection, there may be no specific evaluation of that distributor.
N,P,F G. When evaluating a contractor's quality program, the Director-QAD is responsible, as necessary, for evaluating its overall quality assurance organization and program in accordance with applicable codes, standards, regulatory requirements, and GPUNC requirements. The review includes consideration of the program elements including, as applicable: company organization, quality assurance personnel qualifications, review and control of design documents, manuf acturing procedures, quality assurance records and their retention, quality assurance requirements and controls imposed by the contractor or its subcontractors, and past per-formance and historical records demonstrating experience in the field.
l N,P,F H. The Vice President-Technical Functions is responsible for performing the technical portion of contractor evaluations relating l to the procurement of materials, parts, and components.
i TITLE PAGE REVISON NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance Plan 75 5 April 1, 1981
The Vice President or Director of an organization utilizing a service is responsible for conducting the technical evaluation of a contractor's capability to provide that service; unless, another organization has already performed a technical evaluation of the contractor for that service (in which case, the technical evaluation is optional). As part of the technical evaluation, the applicable aspects of a contractor's design capabilities, manufacturing capabilities, special fabrication processes, output capabilities, handling capabilities, testing facilities,-special process capabilities, service capabilities, and experience are reviewed.
N,P,F I. Quality evaluations are documented in reports which include .
the type of evaluation, the material or services that may be procured, the classification assigned to that contractor, any limitations that should be imposed in the procurement documents, and recommendations for surveillance and inspection to insure that a product or service complies with all requirements. The results of these reports are reflected in the Contractor Classifi-cation List and the contractor is assigned an appropriate classifi-cation. Reports must be favorable for the contractor to receive a favorable classification. Contractor's continuation on the list will be controlled through an annual evaluation of the contractor's performance using pertinent results from manufacturing surveillance, source inspection, receiving inspection, and other applicable factors. The evaluation will include a recommendation as to the need for a scheduled program or problem area audit. Auditing like surveillance and inspection, will be treated as a Quality Assurance tool used for evaluation. Furthermore, the recommendation to audit will include provisions for reviewing the importance and impact of the particular contractor's scope and status. Contractors with continuous contracts will be audited at least once every three (3) years.
N,P,F J. When establishing whether a specific contractor is acceptable for a specific procurement, there are three basic, acceptable contractor interfaces which must be considered:
- 1. Will the purchase order be issued directly to a specific contractor's facility which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor's Classification List?
l l 2. Will the purchase order be issued to a contractor's sales office or other facility which is not the specific facility which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classification List?
i TITLE PA 3E REVISION NO. DATE l
I Operational Quality Assurance Plan 76 , 5 April 1, 1981 g * -99=
l
- 3. Will the purchase order be issued to a distributor who has not been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classification List, but will-provide a product from a contractor which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classification List?
Use of the three options mentioned above a'e r acceptable as specified below:
- 1. When the purchase order is to be issued directly to a specific contractor's facility which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classification List, a purchase order may be issued directly to the contractor in accordance with the conditions and limitations established in the Contractor Classification List.
- 2. When the purchase order is to be issued to a contractor's sales office or other facility which is not the specific facility which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classifi-cation List, a purchase order may be issued directly to the contractor in accordance with the conditions and limitations established for the evaluated contractor facility in the Contractor. Classification List, with the following, additional requirements:
a) The purchase order shall specify that the materials, parts, components, and/or services must be provided from the facility (ies) which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classification List.
b) The purchase order shall state that "Any exceptions to the requirements (including facility requirements) of this purchase
, order requires prior written approval by I
Jersey Central Power & Light Company."-
l
- 3. When a purchase order is to be issued to a distributor who has not been evaluated and classified favorably on l the Contractor Classification List, but will provida a product from a contractor which has been evaluated and classified favorably on the Contractor Classification List, a purchase order may be issued directly to the distributor in accordance with the conditions and j limitations established for the contractor which is l 6 classified favorably on the Contractor Classification

that all materiele, parts, end/or compon:nts shall b2 provid:d f roa a contrcctor(e) which has b: n evaluatcd and classified favorably on the Contractor Classifi-cation List, and that no substitutes are permitted.
N,P,D,F K. The Contractor Audit element is utilized when it is determined that a formal, documented evaluation of a contractor's quality assurance records and program is required. It may be utilized for looking at past performance of the contractor for the purpose of evaluating probable future performance or past compliance with procurement document requirements. This element is generally utilized for establishing the degree of procurement document compliance on the part of an engineering consultant or offsite service contractor. The Director-QAD is responsible for the implementation of this element.
N,P,D,F L. The Contractor Surveillance and Shipment Release elements are utilized mainly in the procurement of materials, parts, components, and site contractor services. Surveillance,is a real time inspection function'which was established to provide a sampling review of a contractor's quality assurance program implementation and/or a product's conformance to procurement documents. It is generally employed during the period of the manufacture or installation of a product, or the performance of a service. The Shipment Release is a final inspection prior to releasing an item for shipment or delivery. The Director-QAD is responsible for establishing surveillance and shipment release requirements based upon both the procurement originating and quality assurance organization requirements.
N,P,D,F M. The Manager-OC QA Modifications / Operations is responsible for surveillance of site contractors to assure that. they meet all technical and quality assurance / quality control requirements.
N,P,D,F N. The results of each audit or surveillance are documented on appropriate reports and/or report forms and will be distributed to the Director-QAD, the contractor, the Vice President Admini-stration, the Manager QA Design and Procurement, and the Vice President OCNGS, as applicable. When a deviation from purchase order requirements is noted, the Quality Assurance representative has the authority to inform the contractor that a particular item does not comply with the purchase order requirements. Pursuant to GPUNC procedures, the contractor shall be notified in writing of deviations to purchase order requirements. The deviation must be resolved prior to item acceptance.
- N,P,D,F 0. The Vice President-Administration is responsible for receiving and storing materials, parts, and components. Upon arrival, tt4 storekeeper logs the item, applies the appropriate Material Conformance Status tag in accordance with Section VIII (ITEM IDENTIFICATION AND CONTROL) of this Plan, and notifies Site j g Quality Assurance that the item has arrived and is ready for i receipt inspection.

N,P,D,F P. Receipt inspection is conducted in accordance with written procedures and checklists, and verifies that the materials, parts, and components conform to the procurerent documents. It insures that documentary evidence of the conformance of materials, parts, and equipment is available at the generating station prior to use. Nonconforming items are managed in accordance with Sections VIII (ITEM IDENTIFICATION AND CONTROL) and XI (NONCONFOR-MANCE/ CORRECTIVE ACTION) of this Plan.
N,P ,D ,F Q. In the event a Shipment Release Inspection was conducted by Quality Assurance prior to the arrival of an item at the site, the receipt inspection need only include an inspection for shipping damage or lost parts and a document check to ensure that it has either the proper documentation or a notification from Quality Assurance that the required documentation has been re-viewed and is adequate.
N,P,D,F R. An alternate means of controlling purchased materials, parts, and components is to perform a Receiving Test Inspection.
This inspection includes those tests, inspections, and analyses necessary to demonstrate compliance with procurement documents.
For example, if a specification for metal requires chemical and physical certifications, these certifications may be established by tracing this material to its heat number and obtaining the certifications for that heat, or upon delivery, samples of the metal may be taken and chemical and physical certification tests made by a testing lab. When procuring pressure switches, tests, such as set point accuracy, drif t rates, and repeatability may be part of the specification. If so, the required tests could be performed by the supplier, or the same tests could be performed as part of a receiving test inspection.
N,P,D,F S. The Manager OC QA Modifications / Operations is responsible for establishing Receiving Test Inspection requirements for each item, as appropriate. In fulfilling this responsibility, he is responsible for obtaining appropriate technical support from various organizations such as Technical Functions. The Manager OC QA Modifications / Operations is responsible for ensuring that Receiving Test Inspections are performed by qualified personnel using approved procedures and/or techniques. ,
i N,P,D,F T. Receiving Test Inspection is accomplished in accordance with I applicable codes, standards, regulatory requirements, procurement documents, specifications, and procedures. It may be used, in lieu of the other Procurement Verification Program elements for establishing product conformance and quality when it, in itself, is adequate. It may also be used to augment the other elements.
N,P,D,F U. The Receipt Inspection and Receiving Test Inspection activi-ties are documented in reports which specify the extent of the inspection performed, including the documents checked, and the inspection results.
TITLE RAGE REVISON NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance plan 79 5 April 1,1981 I
N,P,D,F V. When it has been determined that an item and its documentation are adequate, Quality Assurance identifies the item in an appro-priate manner, files the documentation, and Receipt Inspection /
Receiving Test Inspection results, and informs the storekeeper.
N,P,D,F W. If an item is nonconforming or the documentation is not adequate, the inspector appropriately identifies the item as on
" Hold" or as nonconforming, mates the results in the Receipt Inspection / Receiving Test Inspection report and prepares a nonconformance report. Nonconformance reports are processed as outlined in Section XI (NONCONFORMANCE/ CORRECTIVE ACTION) of this Plan. All nonconformances must be resolved to the satisfaction of the procurement originator and Quality Assurance. Technical Functions approval is required if there is any deviation to any approved Technical Function's specification or drreing. If an item is rejected, it will be either downgraded or disposed of as appropriate and the documentation made to show the dispos.~ tion.
If used as is, the documentation will reflect this fact and include justification for the action and the item will be con-sidered acceptable.
N,P,D,F X. On a case basis, nonconforming items may be " Released for Installation But Not Use" from the storeroom or warehouse by either the Director-QAD or the Manager OC QA Modifications /
Operations . Under this condition, a system, component, part, or material cannot be made operational or returned to operation, until all nonconformances, resulting from the receipt inspections, are dispositioned in accordance with the requirements outlined in Section XI (NONCONFORMANCE/ CORRECTIVE ACTION) of this Plan.
N,P,D,F Y. In the event traceability of an item is lost, the item becomes nonconforming and is controlled as such until traceability is re-established.
N Z. Periodically, documentation received from contractors may be verified in various ways. When performed, the verification shall include, as applicable, re-inspection, check analysis of materials, re-survey of a contractor's quality program or other appropriate means.
N,P,F AA. All evaluations, reviews, inspections, surveillances, audits , !
and receipt inspections relating to the Procurement Verification Program are conducted by personnel who are competent in establish-ing whether or not a contractor is capable of providing acceptable,
! quality products.
N,P,F BB. The various Procurement Verification Program elements are planned and accomplished in accordance with procedures, instructions ,
procurement document requirements, checklists, and/or other documents which are appropriate for the activity actually being performed.

N,P F CC. The Quality Assurance Department maintains records relating to the various elements of the Procurement Verification Program.
These records and the results of the various Procurement Verifi-cation-Program activities are utilized in determining the initial and continued qualification of contractars as well as establishing contractor surveillance and audit requirements. In addition, the required re-evaluation of contractors may be based upon a review of these records.

These procedures establish organizations; responsibilities; authorities; organization inter-faces; training and qualification requirements; inspection program planning and implementation requirements; and inspection record and report preparation, maintenance, distribution and retention requirements.
N,P,D,F B. Inspection programs utilize, as necessary, written and approved inspection packages which are employed by inspectors who are independent of the individual or group performing the activity being inspected. Inspection packages include (as appropriate):
procedures, checklists, instructions, drawings, and specifications.
These documents are developed in a manner to suit the nes., and the following items are considered in preparing the documents:
identification of characteristics and activities to be inspected; personnel responsibilities; personnel qualification requirements; description of the inspection method; equipment requirements, including calibration requirements; QA established inspection and/ or hold points; acceptance and rejection criteria; data collection requirements, whicb include recording evidence of completing and verifying a manufacturing, inspection, or test operation, and recording the name of the inspector or data collector, the date, and the results of the inspection; and documentation approval requirements.
N,P,D,F C. Quality Assurance establishes inspection programs for the various activities. The extent of the inspection program is a
( function of items, such as: activity complexity, activity l significance, experience in performing the activity, and the l degree to which the quality can be established after the activity.
l A sampling inspection program is generally utilized. In this l case, inspection and/or hold points, which Quality Assurance has l the authority to establish, are utilized to inspect the quality of the work. In the event direct inspection is not possible or practical, surveillance of the activity will be performed by means of monitoring processing methods, equipment and personnel.

N,D C. The identffication of the inspection, test, and operating status of installed struccures, systems, and components is main-tained by means of administrative control procedures which establish several meclanisms for identification and control. The first mechanism is the Switching and Tagging System which utilizes a system of tags and a log to identify systems placed out of com-mission for maintenance, repair, modification, replacement, or addition work; whenever personnel safety and/or reliable or safe station operation is a factor. The second mecnanism is the job order system which is utilized to control saintenance, repair, replacement, modification and addition work, as established in Section IV (DESIGN, MODIFICATION, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, AND REPLACEMENT CONTROL) of this Plan. The third mechanism is the Jumper Control System which controls and documents the jumpering of electrical systems or functions except in the case of Surveil-
-lance Testing and other activities that are controlled by means of Plant Operation Review Committee approved procedures which specify and control the use of jumpers. The fourth mechanism is the documentation and control of lif ted electrical leads which is subject to the samt exception as jumper control. The fifth mechanism is the control of alarm circuits. This mechanism is utilized for logging and controlling the intentional defeating of alarm circuits, and requires that alarm windows are clearly tagged when the alarm is inoperable. The sixth mechanism is the Control Room Log which is utilized, in part, to document unusual system conditions and system operability tests which have been accomplished. The seventh mechanism is the Surveillance Test Program which tests specific installed systems and components on i a routine basis to determine the continued operability status of l specified instrumentation and equipment. The eighth mechanism is j the Nonconformance and Corrective Action Program which is utilized l and managed in accordance with Section XI (NONCONFORMANCE/ CORRECTIVE ACTION) of this Plan.

N,P,D,F F. The written procedures relating to the identificatfor. and control of materials, parts, and components, establish the require-ments for the method and location of permanent or temporary markings, tags, or labels to preclude a degradation of the item's- functional capability or quality; the method of control of items which have not received the required examinations, tests, or inspections; the trace-ability of the item to associated documents such as drawings, specifi-cations, purchase orders, manufacturing test data, inspection docu-ments, and physical and chemical mill test reports; the control and marking of an item during dismantling, cutting, or separation to prevent loss of traceability to the records maintained on the item; the required record keeping to maintain traceability of the item to a point in time and/or record; and the degree of identification and .
control necessary to preclude the use of incorrect or defective items.
N,P,D,F G. The written procedures relating to Material Conformance Status, establish the responsibilities and requirements for marking, tagging, or labeling of items to identify its conformance to pre-established requirements. The basic conformance status categories are
" HOLD", " NONCONFORMING", " ACCEPTED", " RELEASED fi'E USE", " REJECTED",
and " RELEASED FOR INSTALLATION BUT NOT USE"; other categories may be established in special cases where it is warranted. The "HCLD" classification is utilized when the conformance status of an item has not been established, or there is some documented reason why an item should not be utilized without further action. The " NONCONFORMING" classification is utilized when it has been established that an item does not conform to ' pre-established requirements and final disposition has not been established. The " ACCEPTED" classification is utilized when an item conforms to pre-established requirements, but for some reason, it is not to be utilized without further action. The "RE-LEASED FOR USE' classification is utilized when an item conforms to pre-established requirements, and may be utilized without further action. The " REJECTED" classification is utilized when an item is nonconforming and is not to be used. The " RELEASED FOR INSTALLATION BUT NOT USE" classification is utilized when an item, for some reason, is to be released for installation in a system, but the item is not to be operated without further action. The use of the " RELEASED FOR INSTALLATION BUT NOT USE" classification is restricted and specific controls are imposed including approval by either the Manager-0C QA Modifications / Operations or the Director-QAD. In this case, a system, component, part, or material cannot be made operational or returned to operation, until all nonconformances are dispositioned in accordance with Section XI (NONCONFORMANCE/ CORRECTIVE ACTION) of this Plan.
N,P,D,F H. Material Conformance Status requirements do not apply to items that are or have been physically installed in installed systems except for the " RELEASED FOR INSTALLATION BUT NOT USE" and." REJECTED" classifications.

F[.T'JT- Jorsay Contral Pewar EsEEEE- & Light Company XI. NONCONFORMANCES/ CORRECTIVE ACTION N,P,D,F A. Nonconformances, as discussed herein, include both hardware problems involving materials, parts, components or systems which do not comply with established licensing, code, standard, and/or specification or drawing requirements, and non-hardware problems such as failure to comply with the operating license, Safety Technical Specifications, procedures, regulations, and/or other established requirements.
N,P,D,F B. It is the responsibility of anyone who detects a noncon-forannce to report it in accordance with the nonconformance procedure that is applicable to his specific organization.
N,P,D,F C. The nonconformance and corrective action programs are managed by means of administrative control procedures which describe the specific methods for:
- 1) Identification and documentation of noncompliances
- 2) Segregation as practical and appropriate
- 3) Notification of affected organizations and assurance of timely closecut
- 4) Establishment and completion of corrective action
- 5) Performance of followup and verification
- 6) Closeout
- 7) Preparation of records N,P,D,F D. The principal means for identification and control of non-conformances is the Nonconformance and Corrective Action Report (NC/ CAR); however, there are ather nonconformance and correction programs which are utilized, because of the nature of the non-conformance, how it is identified, or because there are superseding requirements which would cause duplication if the NC/ CAR is utilized.
The other methods of identification and control of nonconformances are Audit Findings and Reportable Occurrences.
N,P,D,F E. The Director-QAD is responsible for the review of noncon-formance and corrective action procedures for compliance with the Operational Quality Assurance Program in accordance with Appendix B of this Plan.
N,P D,F F. The nonconformance and corrective action program provides for the disposition and corrective action of nonconformances. To disposition a nonconformance means to evaluate it with regard to its nuclear safety significance and to establish any necessary limitations on further work or use of a system. To provide corrective action for a nonconformance is to resolve the situation Title Page Revision No. Date i
! Operational Quality Assurance Plan 104 5 April 1, 1981 t
which caused the nonconformance. Once a nonconfermanca is dispositioned, work on or use of an item or system may continue within the restraints of any limitations which were established as part of the disposition. This mechanism prevents the inadvertent installation or use of a nonconforming item or system.
N,P,D,F G. Disagreements relating to nonconformances and/or corrective action are resolved between the organizations that have the disagreement. In the event a resolution cannot be achieved, the Of fice of the President has the final authority.
N,P,D,F H. The establishment of suitable corrective action includes an evaluation of the nonconformance, giving consideration to its cause, similar conditions that may exist in other areas, its relationship to nuclear safety, and solutions that vould prevent repetition of conditions adverse to quality or nuclear fire protection, including fire incidents.
N,D,P,F I. The Office of the President is responsible for ensuring that nonconformances are corrected for plant personnel activities involving operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, addition, modification, health physics, environmental monitoring, fuel handling at the plant, and inservice inspection. Plant items such as failures, malfunctions, deficiencies, deviations and defective material, parts or components are handled in a manner consistent with their importance co safety and reviewed in accordance with appropriate procedures and the OCNGS Technical Specifications, Sections 6.3 and 6.4.
N,D,P,F J. Each Vice President, Director and Manager is responsible for the disposition and corrective action of nonconformances identi-fied as within the scope of his re ponsibilities as defined in Section II (ORGANIZATION) of this Plan. Nonconformance and corrective action review, approval, and concurrence is to be in accordance with Appendix B of this Plan. Prior to system test and turnover of modifications, all nonconformances should be corrected or at least dispositioned.
N,P,D,F K. The Director-QAD is responsible for the special case of internal auditing. In this case, unique procedures have been established for the reporting of nonconformances identified as a result of auditing.

repairs, or replacements in accordance with Appendix B of this Plan. These procedures require that noncenforming items found during receipt inspection be clearly identified as discrepant and segregated from acceptable items (when practical), and that station supervision and the purchaser be notified so that appro-priate corrective action can be taken. The Manager-0C QA Modi-ficaticns/ Operations is responsible for the implementation of these procedures.
N,P,D,F M. Whenever a nonconformance requires " rework" or " repair" of materials, parts, components, systems and structures, the rework or repair aust be verified as satisfactory by an inspection of the affected item. The extent of this inspection is to be broad enough to provide an equivalent degree of confidence in the quality of the rework or repair of the item as would be provided by utilizing the inspection techniques during the manufacturing process. The results of this inspection are documented in the appropriate documents. Nonconformances dispositioned "USE AS IS" require the approval of Technical _ Functions or the Director, Station Operations, as appropriate. In addition, procurement documents shall require that copies of all nonconformances, dispositioned "USE AS IS" or " REPAIR" shall be included in the documentation provided with the shipment.
N,P,D,F N. The Manager-0C QA Modifications / Operations is responsible for the administration of the nonconformance and corrective action program. This includes: maintaining records on the outstanding nonconformances; maintaining a nonconformance and corrective action log; maintaining the status of the disposition and corrective action on each item; and ensuring that timely corrective action is taken and that the item is closed out. In the event prompt corrective action is not taken, he notifies the Director-QAD and the Director-Station Operations so that correc-tive action can be expedited.
N,P,D,F 0. The Director-QAD is responsible for reporting corrective action status regarding significant and repetitive conditions, adverse to quality or nuclear fire protection, to cognizant levels of both off-site and on-site management for review and assessment. Reports to off-site management will include a report to the Office of the President.
N,P,D,F P. The Director-QAD is responsible for the periodic analysis of nonconformances to establish any quality trends, and the results are reported to management, including the Office of the President for review and assessment.

N,P,D,F A. A system of planned and periodic audits has been established to verify compliance with the aspects of the Operational Quality Assurance Program. This system is established and defined in the Operational Quality Assurance Program Procedures. In general, each element of the quality assurance program, such as: design control, document control, control of special processes, and maintenance, shall be audited once every two years.. The Fire Protection Program, inservice inspection and operations will be audited annually; whereas, the Security Program will be audited at least once every two years. Re-audits or other documented QA
- verifications of deficient areas shall be conducted to verify implementation of corrective actions. In addition, unscheduled audits may be conducted, from time to time, on any aspect of this Operational Quality Assurance Program.
N,P,D,F B. When functioning within the scope of the Operational Quality Assurance Program, both GPUNC and organizations providing goods and/or services are subject to the appropriate requirements of this program and thus, audits. Audits that are conducted on organizations within GPUNC are designated as internal audits and audits conducted on all other organizations are designated as external audits. .
N,P,D,F C. As described in Section II (ORGANIZATION) of this Plan, the Director-QAD has the authority and organizational freedom to schedule and perform internal audits as well as to provide and/or ensure corrective action.
N,P,D,F D. The Manager-QA Program Development and Audits shall be responsible for establishing and implementing the overall Quality Assurance Audit Program. He shall assure that all applicable areas are audited and that all auditing organizations meet the auditing requirements specified in this Plan. He shall evaluate the ef fectiveness of the overall audit program, analyze the reports and related information for quality trends and appraise the Vice President-Nuclear Assurance of significant aspects of the program.
N,P,D,F E. The Manager-QA Program Development and Audits shall be responsible for the preparation, update, approval, and imple-mentation of audit schedules.
Title Page Revision No. Date Operational Quality Assurance Plan 107 5 April 1, 1981
N,P,D,F F. The Manager-QA Program Development cnd Audita chall ascura that an overall quality assurance audit program schedule is established.
N,P,D,F G. Audit teams shall consist of an adequate number of personnel with adequate capabilities and qualifications in the area being audited and in the techniques and requirements for conducting audits. Audit team members shall have no direct responsibility for the audited activity, although they may be from the same organization.
N,P,F H. Each audit team shall be led by an Audit Team Leader. Audit Team Members shall be utilized as required and will be classified as either auditors or technical specialists depending on their function on the audit team. Audit team members shall be qualified to perform those functions which are assigned to them as audit team members.
N,P,D,F I. The auditing organization shall be responsible for the planning, performing, timely reporting, follow-up and timely closecut of audits. Records shall be filed in the Document Center. The Audit Team shall be vested with the authority and organizational freedom to perform its audit functions in an unimpeded manner which includes the authority to identify quality problems, the authority to advise and counsel, the authority to furnish clarification, and the authority to confirm corrective action.
N,P,D,F J. The audited organization shall be responsible for allowing the audit team access to records and facilities relating to the audit; it shall cooperate with the auditfug organization providing whatever assistance is necessary in the performance of the audit.
The audited organization shall correct findings and resolve observations in a timely manner.
N,P,F K. An audit team (consisting of one or more qualified persons) is selected for the performance of each audit. A designated leader is assigned to be responsible (as required) for the audit planning (including checklists), audit team orientation, audit notification, pre-audit conference, audit performance, post-audit conference, reporting, records, and for follow-up audits when necessary to assure that nonconformances are resolved. The audit team is structured in a manner to preclude the auditor from having direct responsibility for the area which he is auditing.
On occasion, the audit team may have members from the audited organization; however, they shall not audit activities for which they have direct responsibility and while performing the audit, they are directly responsible to the Audit Team Leader.
N,P,F L. Audits are conducted in accordance with audit procedures.
Audits may include (as required) but are not limited to the evaluation of work areas, activities, processes, goods, services, TITLE PAGE REVISION NO. DATE Operational Quality Assurance Plan 108 5 April 1,1981
and the review of accuments and records for quality-related practices, procedures, and instructions to determine the effec-tiveness of the implementation of this Operational Quality Assurance Program. Audit results are documented and then re-viewed with the management organization having responsibility in the area audited.
N,P M. In addition to the Audit Program discussed above, the Director-QAD audits the OCNGS Technical Specifications in accor-dance with Section 6.5 of the OCNGS Technical Specifications.
