Subject:

1 Licensee Engineering Initiatives Nuclear power plant licensees, industry groups, professional societies, and the NRC have devoted substantially increased-attention to nuclear.powerJplant engi-

.neering program enhancements in recent years. Many licensees have undertaken

=significant positive initiatives in-the engineering area, including' design basis' document (DBD)-updates. safety system' functional inspections, and other engi-neering program improvements.

In order to share experiences and foster a disciplined and coordinated a)proach to engineering initiatives,-licensees in the'NRC Region V area have'esta)1ished an Enginet-Ing Managers' Forum. This forum has held several meetings-since it-was=initiat'd.in'1988,1 and has issued a formal charter plus two guideline docu-Linents dealig with plant' design basis documentation and:other engineering pro-grams. : Appropriate liaison has been provided with INP0 and NUMARC regarding the forum efforts and guidelines. The? forum-plans.to issue additional guide-lines,. on subjects which include engineering backlog, spere parts, and qualii'i-

' cation of engineers.. Forum members have indicated that their counterparts in

- NRC Regions II and III are also in the process of setting up similar working H

groups.

[

I. encourage you and otW power: reactor licensees in. Region I to initiate a similar initiative that would provide for the sharing of:information and ex- ,

periences involving engineering initiatives and solution of problems common to all.. A' cooperative effort of this nature would promote efficiency and enhance the effectiveness of nuclear power plant engineering activities. t The current chairman of the Region V Engineering Managers' Forum is Mr. John Allen

sire additional information:regarding tie approach being taken by their forum, you ,
