MANAGEMENT STATEMENT h
It is the policy of Washington Public Power Supply System (hereinafter called the " Supply System") to design, construct and operate its nuclear power plants without, jeopardy to the health and safety of the public.
In support of this policy, the Supply System has established a Corporate Quality Assurance Program that is described in the following three docu-ments:
1.
Quality Assurance Program for Design and Construction.
2.
ASME Quality Assurance Manual (Design and Construction) 3.
Operational Quality Assurance Program Description (Operations Phase).
The three documents contain the official Supply System Quality Assurance policies. Adherence by all affected Supply System organizations is mandatory.
The Operational Quality Assurance Program Description meets the applicable requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B.
The Licensing & Assurance Directorate is mandated the responsibility and authority for establishing, administering and assuring implementation of the Supply System Corporate Quality Assurance Program. The Licensing &
Assurance Director has the responsibility and authority, including stop work authority, to perform actions necessary to accomplish this mandate as delineated in the Corporate Quality Assurance Program manuals.
l The Licensing & Assurance Directorate has my delegated approval authority 1
for the Operational Quality Assurance Program Description and any necessary modifications.

2 - QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM 2.1 PURPOSE This section provides an overall description of the QA Program that will be applied to initial testing and subsequent operation and maintenance activities throughout the life of Supply System nuclear power plants.
2.2 GENERAL 2.2.1 The QA Program will be implemented through a series of Nuclear Operation Standards (N0Ss) contained in the Supply System Functional Manual for Nuclear Operation. These NOSs, in turn, will be imple-
'(
mented by Supply System organizational procedures, programs or plans which prescribe detailed methods for functional accomplishment. The NOSs will address the applicable requirements of Appendix B to 10CFR50 and Sections 1 through 18 of the QA Program. A matrix of Nuclear Operation Standards cross referenced against each criteria of Appendix 8 to 10CFR50 is included in Table 2-1.
Thu NOSs and implementing procedures, programs or plans will collectively comply with the Regulatory Positions of QA-related Regulatory Guides as identified and modified in Appendix II, " Position Statements".
2.2.2 A list of safety-related items that will be subject to the appli-cable controls of the QA Program is included in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) for the applicable Supply System nuclear power plant. Changes to this listing shall be controlled by the Director of Technology and approved by the Plant Manager.

2.2.3 Applicable provisions of the QA Program shall be implemented by the earliest of the following and shall remain in effect for the life of Supply System nuclear power plants:
Prior to inception of the activity.
a.
b.
At the time of temporary / permanent transfer of system / component custody to Test and Startup Organization.
Ninety (90) days prior to init al fuel loading.
c.
2.2.4 Revisions to the QA Program will be made by the Licensing & Assurance organization as follows:
Proposed changes to the QA Program will be evaluated to deter-a.
mine whether or not they would result in a reduction of comit-ments previously accepted by the Nuclear Regulatory Comission (NRC).
b.
Changes that do not reduce the comitments may be implemented prior to forwarding of such changes to the NRC. However, all such changes shall be forwarded to the NRC at least annually.
Changes that do reduce comitments will be forwarded to the NRC c.
for their review and acceptance prior to implementation. Such changes shall be regarded as accepted by the NRC upon receipt of a letter from the NRC to this effect or sixty (60) days after submittal to the NRC, whichever occurs first.

The scope, objective, and method of implementing the indoctrination and training program shall be documented. Proficiency of personnel j
performing activities that affect safety-related functions of plant items shall be maintained by retraining, re-examination, and/or recertifying, as applicab,le. Methods shall be provided for docu-menting training.
2.2.6 The scope, implementation, and effectiveness of the QA Program is routinely audited by the Licensing & Assurance Organization. Copies of audit reports are presented to Supply System management to pro-vide for assessment of the effectiveness of the QA Program.
Additionally, on an annual basis, the Supply System management arranges for an independent audit and evaluation of the adequacy of the scope, implementation, and effectiveness of the QA Program.
This is accomplished by knowledgeable personnel cutside of Licensing
& Assurance Organization to ' assure achievement of an objective pro-gram assessment. Results of these independent audits are reported to the Managing Director / Deputy Managing Director.
