SUBJECT:

10 CFR 50.54 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM REVIEW

References:

Letter dated August 4,1993, from Mr. George A. Hunger to U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Transmitting a Proposed Change to the Limerick and Peach Bottom Stations Quality Assurance Program Descriptions, Which Transfer the In-line Reviews of Procurement Documents and Specifications l

We received the referenced letter transmitting proposed changes to the Limerick and Peach i

Bottom Quality Assurance Program descriptions. This change removes the Quality Assurance organization from the responsibility for reviewing all procurement documents and reassigns this responsibility to the line organization doing the procurement. We note that this l

change is associated with your ongoing Nuclear Effectiveness and Efficiency Study (NEEDS) program. After an initial review of this change request, Mr. John Caruso of our staff l

telephoned Mr George Siefert of your licensing staff on August 12, 1993, with certain l

comments and questions.

l As part of our continuing commitment to perform inspections to assess potential safety implications of the implementation of your NEEDS program, me-mbers of our staff met with members of your licensing and quality assurance staffs at your Chesterbrook offices on j

September 8,1993. At this meeting your staff presented reasons for the above change. The l

results of this meeting are documented in Combined Inspection Reports 50-352/353-22.

Your staffs' presentations, which address our concerns, have been attached to that inspection l

report. Based on our discussions on September 8, we have no further questions at this time.

l Mr. D. M. Smith 2

007 4 jgg3 Based on our review of your submittal and your presentation to us, we have determined that i

the changes to your Quality assurance Program description are acceptable in that the Quality Assurance Program continues to satisfy the criteria of Appendix B of 10 CFR Part 50. The effectiveness of your Quality / surance Program and procedure implementation will continue to be the subject of routine regional inspections.

If you have any questions concerning the above, please contact Mike Modes at 215-337-5198.
