Please define the criteria that are used in deciding when and how to implement and when and how to stop implementing the portion of NPAP C-40 pps.14 and 15 which refer to situations such as "[i]f evidence indicates that a significant number of -

common components in safety-related systems have performed unsatisfactorily, r

corrective measures shall be planned."and "[i]f deemed necessary, an augmented testing and inspection program should be implemented following large scale component replacement (or repair) until such time as a suitable level of performance has been demonstrated." Who is responsible for defining these criteria-and who is responsible for implementing and documenting the decisions made using these criteria?

10.

How is the split of trade responsibilities implemented when there are multiple -

disciplines requires in the maintenance or surveillance of a single component.

I Please illustrate your answer by considering a hypothetical unit involving electronic components, a computer programmable logic control element, electrical actuators, l

. mechanical processes and piping. How is the activity coordinated between the -

A-3 g

i mechanical, electrical and instrumentation & control maintenance programs?

Which discipline is given lead responsibility and how is this decided? Which discipline is accountable for maintenance of software or firmware functions? -If the activity involves testing or changing some aspect of the software /firmware functions of a hypothetical controller or system, how are all aspects of the functionability of the unit verified at the end of the maintenance or surveillance activity?

complex tasks on safety-related and important-to-safety equipment? How often is.

this verified?

14.

How do you detect the effects of erosion / corrosion on safety related components or non-safety related components in the vicinity of safety-related components?

15.

How do you insure the environmental qualification of a component has not been effected by the actions of maintenance or surveillance? What tests do you employ to assure the Environmental Qualified life of an item has not been effected?

In implementing the secondary objective of the Preventive Maintenance Program of -

the Maintenance Department (AP C-750, p.1)which is "to optimize the relationship between operating costs and the equipment's contribution to profit..." what measures of the " operating costs" and the " contribution to profit" are available to the maintenance personnel for use in making decisions related to this objective? Please <
