SUBJECT:
Waterford SES Unit 3 Docket No. 50-382
Dear Sir:
On Friday, September 3, 1982, a meeting was held at Louisiana Power and Light Companys' Waterford Steam Electric Station Unit 3 Site at which a pending revision to Chapter 14 of the FSAR was discussed. In attendance at the meeting were several representatives of LP&L and members of NRC, namely, Suzy Black, T. Y. Chang, and Les Constable, Senior NRC Resident Inspector.
The basis for the FSAR change as discussed in this meeting is to better define the two-step process by which a system is transferred from Construction to Startup to Plant Operations. Release of a system to Startup for Pre-operational Testing is not dependent on an audit of system Quality Assurance records but only on determination of the operational status of the system to support the Preoperational Test.
Presently Section 14.2.1.2 paragraph 2 of the FSAR reads:
"A required pre-requisite to the physical preoperational testing is an audit of applicable Quality Assurance records to assure that all elements of the system meet design requirements". This statement will be changed to read as follows:
"A required prerequisite to the physical preoperational testing is a review of the applicable Quality Assurance records to determine the inspection, test, and operational status of the system is accurately defined and provides a basis for the decision to perform the preoperational test".
Similarly, FSAR Table 14.2-3 (6.2) reads:
"An audit of the systems Quality-related records is a prerequisite to preoperational testing and is the responsibility of LP&L and EBASCO construction QA groups. These audits will be completed by the systems turnover date and will be documented in the turnover package.
This section is used to verify that turnover b,s been completed and the package has been accepted".
This statement will be changed to read as follows:
"A 8210040191 820927 PDR ADOCK 05000382 A
.3 i.
Mr. T. H. Novak Page 2 I
review of the system Quality Assurance records is a prerequisite to pre-operational testing. This section is used to verify that available system documentation has been reviewed and that the system status is acceptably defined". A new paragraph will be added to Section 14.2.1 to read as follows:
"For verification of acceptability LP&L QA shall perform system audits including documentation for each system prior to fuel load or transfer of the system from Startup to Plant Operations".
Concurrence with the above FSAR changes has been acknowledged by NRC representatives both at Nuclear Reactor Regulacion and Region IV offices, thus these changes will be included in the next FSAR Amendment.
Should you have any questions or require further discussion on this matter, please advise.
