Gentlemen:

SUBJECT:

Commitment Change for Post Modification and Post-Maintenance >

Function Testing In F<eference 2, Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) addressed Safety Systems Outage Modifications Inspections (SSOMI) team findings related to inadequate post-modification testing. OPPD committed to establish a group within the Nuclear Production Division which would have responsibility for  :'

post-maintenance and post-modification function testing of existing plant systems. This original commitment was made prior to the 1988 reorganization of n OPPD divisions associated with Fort Calhoun Station. The development of this >

L separate " testing" group was not a part of OPPD's divisional reorganization.

L L Post-maintenance testing is defined by accountabilities in Standing Order j- (S.O.)_M101; The Maintenance Planner specifies the post-maintenance L requirements and the System Engineer reviews the testing for acceptability. '

g S.0. M-102, " Post-Maintenance Testing," establishes the administrative controls, assigas responsibility and defines the duties of personnel conducting i u post-inaintenance testing, i Post-modification testing is controlled through Fort Calhoun Station Standing L Order G-21 3 "kodification Control." The test procedures are developed by  ;

Design Engineering and reviewed by the Station Modification Acceptance & Review

- Team (SMART) as an integral part ci the design package development process, l i

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission LIC-90 0063 Page 2 Part II of S.O. G 21 defines the actual post-modification testing process. The

& modification planner prepares the modification for testing release. This is reviewed by the Planner, System Engineer, Construction Field Supervisor, Quality Control (QC) and the "As low As Reasonably Achievable" (ALARA) group prior to the pre-job briefing and the actual release by the Shift Supervisor.

The Planner and Construction Supervisor are responsible for the testing with the resulte evaluated by the System Engineer.

This process relies on two departments which were outgrowths of the reorganization: Station Engineering and Construction Management. Both departments report to the Division Manager of Production Engineering Division (PED) as does the Design organization. This provides the overall coordination

  • needed to ensure quality testing.

The review of the results is done by a station team consisting of the Operations Supervisor, Maintenance Supervisor, Supervisor - System Engineering and the Plant Manager. This ensures the independence of review prior to accepting the modification as a part of the station systems.

Although the post-maintenance and post-modification testing programs described are different than originally committed to in Reference 2, this approach meets the intent of the original commitment. <
