Dear Mr. Kintner:

)

Subject:

Licensee Engineering Iriitia11ves i

4 Nuclear power plant licensees, industry groups, professional societies, and the-1 NRC have devoted substantially increased attention to nuclear >ower plant engi-neering program enhancements in recent years. Many licensees.1 ave undertaken significant positive initiatives in the engineering area, including design basis document (080) updates, safety system functional inspections, and other.engi-neering program improvements.

In order ;o share experiences and foster a disciplined and coordinated approach

.i to engineering initiatives,. licensers in the NRC Region V area have established 1

an Engineering Managers' forum..This forum has held several meetings since it was initiated in 1988, and has issued a formel charter plus two guideline docu-J ments dealing with plant design basis documentation and other engineering pro-

. grams. Appropriate liaison has been provided with_INP0 and NUMARC regarding l

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 t;gineers.

Forum members have indicated that their counterparts.in NRC Regions II and III are also in the process of setting up similar working

?

L 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-

-periences involving engineering initiatives and solution of problems common to all. A cooperative effort of this nature would promote _ efficiency and enhance 2

the effectiveness of nuclear power plant engineering activities.

The current chairman of the Region V Engineering Managers' Forum is Mr. John Allen of Arizona Public Service Company, telephone (602) 340-4181.

If you should de-sire additional information regarding the approach being taken by their forun., you L
