Dear Pir. Opeka:

Subject:

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

neering program enhancements in recent years. Many licensees have undertaken significant positive initiatives in the engineering area, including design basis y,

document (DBD) updates, safety system functional: inspections, and other engi-neering program-improvements.

,q

'In order;to, share experiences and foster a disciplined and coordinated-approach to engineering _ initiatives, licenrees in the NRC Region V area have established

.an Engineering Managers' Forum.

This forum has held several meetings since it

'I was initiated in 1988,land has issued'a formal _ charter plus two guideline'docu-

~

7'

,ments dealing:with plant design basis ~ documentation and-other engineering pro-

' gramsi: 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, spare-parts,-and'qualifi--

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

NRC' Regions II and III are also in the_ process of' setting up similar working?

i groups.

I encourage you and other power reactor licensees in Region I to initiate.a

.similar initiative that would provide for the sharing of;information and ex-W' periences involving engineering initiatives and solution of problems common to

?

all.- A' cooperative effort of this nature would promote efficiency and enhance g:

-the' effectiveness of nuclear power plant engineering activities.

A!

The current chairman of the Region V Engineering. Managers' Forum is Mr. John Allen 1

"of Arizona Public Service company, telephone (602)340-4181.
