OQAM Assurance is responsible for a nystem of planned audits to assure OQAP compliance, with a frequency commensurate with the Program aspect's safety significance and in accordance with the require-monts of Section 18.

He is responsible for conducting audits of offsite and onsito activities.

Deficiencies identified during the audit process are reported to responsible management of the organization involved in the resolution and follow-up to assure correctivo action.

1799 2.12 The Senior Vice President-Nuclear providos for an 1800 independent assosoment of the scope, impicmenta-

tion, and offectiveness of the OQAP to assuro compliance with
policy, commitments, and the requiromonts of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B as set forth in this OQAM. This assessment shall be conducted biennially with a

scheduling allowance of plus three months for each assessment and a combined timo interval for any throo consecutivo assessment intervals not to exceed 6.25 years. This assessment may be by representativos of other utilition, outsido consultants, or UE management representa-tives.

In addition, various reports are issued to the Senior Vice President-Nuclear on a periodic basis to assist his indopondent assessment of the OQAP (e.g.,

semiannual QA report, and periodic QA audit reports).

2.13 Implomontation of OQAP controls over activities affecting quality assures achieving the objectivo of the UE OQAP to provide management with adequato confidence that activities affecting quality regarding the design, installation, modification, and operation of the callaway plant are performed consistent with policy.

Documentation of the accomplishment of OQAP objectivos is maintained in the form of records of data and other information as necessary to support operation, maintenance,

repair, modification, refueling, and inservice inspection.

2.14 UE Management has established standards of perfor-mance which exceed those set forth by the Regula-tory Agencies. As a management initiative in this

area, UE has defined the word "must" to impose management directed performance standards in excess of and in addition to established Regulatory directed performancc.

From the viewpoint of UE omployees and UE contractors, there is no differ-ence in the degree of compliance mandated by use of the words "shall" or "must."

Compliance with actions initiated by use of either "shall" or "must" is audited and surveilled by the QA Depart-2-5 Rev. 15 I

6/92

l oQAM ment.

Failure to implement a "must" mandated activity requires corrective action in the same way as failure to implement a "shall" mandated activ-ity.

However, from an external viewpoint, -inter-nally imposed "must" requirements (i.e., those in excess of Regulatory requirements) are not intended to be subject to enf orce.nent action.

OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.33 (cont.)

With regard to Section 5.2.7 of ANSI N18.7 - 1976 titled Mainte-nDnce and Modification UE shall interpret the word " original" in the first sentence of this Section to modify ONLY the words

" design bases."

This interpretation is to assure that original inspection requirements are not imposed, without appropriate

review, on modifications or maintenance activities which are similar in nature to original construction activities. In devel-oping means to assure the quality of maintenance or modification
activity, inspection requirements from associa

,d construction activities shall be considered. Operational inspection require-monts shall assure quality at least equivalent to the original quality.

Since some emergency situations could arise which might preclude preplanning of all activities, UE nhall conply with an alternate to the first sentence in the second paragraph which reads:

"Except in emergency or abnormal operating conditions whern imme-diate actions are required to protect the health and cafety of the public, to-protect equipment or personnel, or to prevent the deterioration of plant conditions to a possibly unaafe or unstable level, maintenance cr. modification of equipment shall be preplanned and performed in accordance with written procedures.

Where written procedures would be required and are not used, the activities that were accomplished shall be documented after-the-fact and receive the same degree of review as if they had been proplanned."

With regard to Section 5.2.7.1 of ANSI N18.7 - 1976 titled Main-tenance Pronramot UE shall comply with the requiren.ents of the first sentence of the fifth paragraph, where practical.

This clarification is needed since it is not always possible to promptly determine the cause of the malfunction.

UE shall initiate proceedings to determine the cause, and shall make such determinations promptly, where practical. QA is involved via loth audits and surveillances, and QC is involved in inspec&ior.

of maintenance inspection activities.

REGULATORY GUIDE 1.74 INITIAL ISSUE DATED 2/7s Quality Assurance Terms and Definitions (Endorses ANSI N45.2.10-1973)

DISCUSSION:

UE complies with the recommendations of this Regulatory Guide with the following clarifications.

UE reserves the right to define additional words or phrases which are not included in this Standard. Such additional definitions shall be documented in appropriate procedures or in Sections of the Operating QA Manual.

In addition to the Standard's definition of

" Inspection,"

UE shall use the following: " Inspection (when used to refer to activities that are NOT performed by QA or QC personnel) - Exam-

ining, viewing closely, scrutinizing, looking over or otherwise checking activities. Personnel performing these functions are not necessarily certified to Regulatory Guide 1.58 (ANSI N45.2.6)."

These activities are controlled by the Callaway Plant Operating b

Manual.

When UE intends for Inspection to be performed in accordance with the Operating QA Program by personnel certified as required by that Program and for activities defined by " Inspection" in ANSI N45.2.10, appropriate references to QC group or the procedures to be used for performing the activity shall be made. If such refer-ences are NOT made, inspections are to be considered under the additional definition given above.

In addition to the Standard's definition of " procurement docu-ments,"

UE shall utilize the definition given in ANSI N45.2.13.

The compound definition is given as follows: Procurement docu-ments

- Contractually binding documents that identify and define the requirements which items or services must meet in order to be considered acceptable by the purchaser. They may include docu-ments which authorize the seller to perform services or supply equipment, material or facilities on behalf of the purchaser A-22 Rev. 15 6/92

OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.74 (cont.)

(e.g.

Engineering Service Agreement agreements for engineering, construction, or consulting services), contracts, letters of

intent, purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or proposals and their acceptance, drawings, specifications, or instruction which define requirements for purchase.

Supplier quotation submitted in response to specified

" Bids" technical and quality requirements for which price and delivery are primary considerations.

" Proposals"

- Supplier offerings that define the scope of supply as well as specific technical and quality requirements for a

product or service. Such offerings usually require negotiation prior to acceptance as either a purchase order,

contract, or Engineering Service Agreement.

" Program Deficiencies" (Not defined in ANSI N45.2.10, but used and defined differently in Regulatory Guide 1.144 (ANSI Failure to develop, document or implement effec-N45.2.12))

tively any applicable element of the Operating QA Program.

" Quality Assurance Program Requirements" (Not defined in ANSI N45.2.10 but used and deflusd differently in ANSI N45.2.10)

Those _ individual requirements of the Operating QA Program 'hich, when invoked in total or in part, establish the requirements of the quality assurance program for the activity being controlled.

Although not specifically used in the Operating QA Program, ANSI N45.2 may be imposed upon UE's suppliers.

" Independent Verification" - Verification by an individual other than the person who performed the operation or activity being verified that required actions have been completed. Such verifi-cation-need not require confirmation of the identical action when other indications provide assurance or indication that the pres-cribed activity is it. fact complete. Examples include, but are not limited to: verification of a breaker opening by observed remote breaker indication lights; verification of a set point (mLde with a voltmeter or ammeter for example) by observing the actuation of status or indicating lights at the required Panel-meter indicated value; verification that a valve has been positi-oned by observing the starting or stopping of flow on meter indi-cations or by remote value positions indicating lights.

" Audit" (This is a modification of the word's definition -

to allow the use of~ subjective evidence if no evidence is available as defined in Section 1.4 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 (Regulatory Guide 1.144) and Section 1.4.3 of ANSI N45.2.23 - 1978 (Regula-tory Guide 1.146) as opposed to the definition given in ANSI N45.2.10

- 1973Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI N45.2.10</br></br>- 1973" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.) - A documented activity performed in accordance with written procedures or checklists to verify, by examination and evaluation of objective evidence where available, (subjective A-23 Rev. 15 6/92

OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.74 (cont.)

evidence may be used when objective evidence is not available),

that applicable elements of the Quality Assurance Program have been developed, documented and effectively implemented in accor-dance with specified requirements.

An audit should not be confused with surveillance or inspection for the sole purpose of process control or product acceptance.

An internally (Not defined in any ANSI Standard)

"Must" auditable requirement imposed by UE management upon its employees, contractors, and agents - above and in excess of the legally binding requirements of the appropriate regulatory body.

Such items are internally required but not externally enforce-l able. (See additional discussion under Section 2.14 of the OQAM.)

" Unit staff" - (Not defined in any ANSI standard) - Means those personnel who report to the Vice President, Nuclear Operations.

This term shall also be synonymous with the "onsite operating organization" described (but not defined) in ANSI N18.7-1976, Section 3.4.2; the

" unit staff" as used in the OQAM and in Callaway Plant Technical Specifications section 6.3 and its subparts and Section 6.5.2.9.b; the " unit organization" described in the Callaway Plant Technical Specifications Section 6.2.2.

"Like kind replacements" - (Net defined in any ANSI standard)

Like kind replacements include both exact item replacements and other item replacements which are not " exact" but meet the orig-inal design requirements.

REGULATORY GUIDE 1.88 REVISION 2 DATED 10/76 Collectior,

Storage, and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plant Quality Assurance Records (Endorses ANSI N45.2.9-1974)

DISCUSSION:

UE complies with the recommendations of this Regulatory Guide with the following clarifications:

With regard to Section 3.2.1 of ANSI N45.2.9 - 1974 titled Gener-ation of Ouality Assurance Records: The phrase " completely filled out" is clarified to mean that sufficient information is recorded to fulfill the intended purpose of the record. It is the informa-tion, not the form, that is the record. Thus the information, not the form, needs to be complete to furnish documented " evidence of activities affecting quality".

With regard to Section 3.2.2 of ANSI N45.2.9 - 1974 titled Index:

The phrase "an index" is clarified to mean a collection of docu-ments or indices which, when taken together, supply the informa-tion attributed to "an index" in :.he Standard.

A-24 Rev. 15 6/92 l

OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.88 (cont.)

The specific location of a record "within a storage area" may not be delineated.

(e.g.

The specific location within a computer record file may not be constant. Further, UE may utilize a

computer ancisted random access filing system where such location could not be readily " documented," or would such a location be

" relevant.")

The storage location shall be delineated, but where file locations change with time, the specific location of a

record within that file may not always be documented.

With regard to Section 4.2 of ANSI N45.2.9 - 1974 titled Timeli-ness:

UE's contractual agreement with its contractors and supp-liers shall constitute fulfillment of the requirements of this Section.

The following clarification is substituted for the current subsection 5.4.3: " Provisions shall be made for special processed records (such as radiographs, photographs, negatives, microfilm and magnetic media) to prevent damage from excessive

light, stacking,-

electromagnetic fields, temperature and humidity as appropriate to the records type." Consideration shall be given to manufacturer's recommendation.

With regard to Section 5.5 of ANSI N45.2.9 - 1974 titled Safe-keenino:

Routine General Offices and Plant site security systems and access controls shall be provided:

no special security systems-are required to be established for record storage areas.

With regard to Section 5.6 of ANSI N45.2.9 - 1974 titled Facil-ity:

This Section provides no distinction between temporary and permanent facilities. To cover temporary storage, the following clarification is added: " Active records (those completed but not yet duplicated or placed on microfilm) may be temporarily stored in one-hour fire rated file cabinets. In general, records shall not be maintained in such temporary storage for more than three months arter completion without being duplicated (for dual stor-age) or being placed on microfilm. Open-ended documents

--those revised or updated on a more-or-less continuing basis over an extended period of time (e.g.

personnel qualification and training documents, equipment history cards, master audit or master surveillance schedules) and those which are cumulative in nature (e.g.

nonconforming item logs and control room log books)--

are not considered as QA records since they are not

" complete." These types of documents shall become QA records when they are issued as a specific revision (e.g.,

the master audit schedule);

when they are filled-up or discontinued (e.g.

log books or equipment history cards); on a predefined periodic basis when the completed portion of the on-going document shall be transferred to document control as a " record" (e.g. training and qualification records).

(Endorses ANSI N45.2.12-1977)

DISCUSSION:'

UE complies with the recommendations of this Regulatory Guide with the following clarifications:

With regard to-Section-1.4 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977-titled Defini-tions:. With.one exception (Program Deficiencies) the definitions in this: Standard which are not included in Regulatory Guide 1.74 (ANSI HN45.2.10) shall be used; definitions which are included in-ANSI N45.2.10 shall be used as clarified in UE's commitment to Regulatory Guide 1.74. The one excepted definition and a clar-ified definition (of audit) relevant to this Standard are= defined in this-Appendix under Regulatory Guide 1.74.

.With' -regard to Section 2.1 of ANSI N45.2.12-1977 titled General:

-Identical or-equivalent controls are provided in this

OQAM, Section 18.~3 regarding the second paragraph discussing audit team selection.

=

With regard to-Section 2.2 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Person-

-Appendix and OQAM.Section 18.

With-regard to Section 2.3 (and subsections 2.3.1-through 2.3.3) of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Trainina: The training of UE audit personnel shall be' accomplished as described to meet the require-ments_ of Regulatory Guide -1.146 (ANSI N45.2.23 -

1978Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI N45.2.23 -</br></br>1978" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.) as endorsed in this Appendix and OQAM Section 18.

~

With regard to Section 2.4 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Mainte-nance of Proficiencv: _The maintenance of-proficiency of UE audit

-personnel shall be accomplished as described to meet the require-ments of-Regulatory -Guide 1.146L (ANSI N45.2.23 - _1978) as endorsed;in this Appendix and OQAM Section 18.

With regard to Section 3.3 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Essen-

'tial Elements of the Audit System: UE shall comply.with subsec-tion 3.3.5.as it was originally written (subsection 3.2.5).

in

-ANSI N45.2.12, Draft 3, Revision 4: " Provisions for reporting on the effectiveness of the Quality Assurance Program to the respon-sible1 management."- For the auditing organization (UE), effective--

ness _-shall-be reported as required by the Callaway Plant Tech-nical : Specifications.~ other than audit reports, UE may not directly report on the effectiveness of the quality assurance programs 'to the audited organization when such organizations are outside of-UE.

l A-30 Rev. 15 6/92 l

l OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.144 (cont.)

Subsection 3.3.6 requirements are considered to be fulfilled by compliance with the organization and reporting measures outlined in this operating QA Manual and the Callaway Plant Technical Specifications.

In every case either identical or equivalent controls are provided in the sections of the referenced docu-ments.

Subsection 3.3.7 requires verification of effective corrective action on a timely basis. Timely basis is interpreted to mean within the framework or period of time for completion of correc-tive action that is accepted by the Quality Assurance Department.

Each finding requires a response and a corrective action comple-tion date; these dates are subject to revision (with the approval i

of the Quality Assurance Department) and must be escalated to higher authority when there is a disagreement between the audited and the auditing organizations on what constitutes

" timely corrective action."

With regard to Section 3.4 of ANSI N45.2.12-1977 titled Audit Planning:

Identical or equivalent controls are provided in this OQAM, Section 18.

With regard to Section 3.5 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Sched-ulina:

Identical or equivalent controls are provided in this

OQAM, Section 18 for the requirements of Subsections 3.5.1 and 3.5.2.

Subsection 3.5.3.1 is interpreted to mean that UE may procedurally control qualification of a contractor's or suppli-er's quality assurance program prior to awarding a contract or purchase order by means other than audit. The measures outlined in Sections 4

and 7 of this OQAM address the requirements of Subsection 3.5.3.1, With regard to Section 4.3.1 of ANSI N54.2.12 - 1977 titled Pre-Audit Conference:

UE shall comply with requirements of this Section by inserting the word "Normally" at the beginning of the first sentence.

This clarification is required because, in the case of certain unannounced audits or audits of a particular operation or work activity, a pre-audit conference might inter-fere with the spontaneity of the operation or activity being audited.

In other cases, persons who should be present at a pre-audit conference may not always be available: such lack of avai-lability should not be an impediment to beginning an audit. Even in the above examples, which are not intended to be all inclu-

sive, the material set forth in Section 4.3.1 shall normally be covered during the course of the audit.

A-31 Rev. 15 6/92 1

OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.144 (cont.)

With regard to Section 4.3.2 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Audit Process:

(a)

Subsection 4.3.2.2 could be interpreted to limit auditors to the review of only objective evidence; sometimes and for some Program clements, no objective evidence may be availa-ble. UE shall comply with an alternate sentence which roads:

"When available, objective evidence shall be examined for compliance with Quality Assurance Program requirements.

If subjective evidence is used (e.g.

personal interviews, direct observations by the auditor), then the audit report must indicate how the evidence was obtained."

(b)

Subsection 4.3.2.4 is modified as follows to take into account the fact that some nonconformances are virtually

" obvious" with respect to the needed corrective action:

"When a

nonconformance or Quality Assurance Program defi-ciency is identified as a result of an audit, unless the apparent

cause, extent, and corrective action are readily
evident, further investigation shall be conducted by the audited organization in an effort to identify the cause and effect and to determine the extent of the corrective action required."

(c)

Subsection 4.3.2.5 contains a recommendation which is clar-ified with the definition of " acknowledged by a member of the audited organization" to mean that "a member of the audited organization has been informed of the findings."

. Agreement er disagreement with a finding may be expressed in the response from the audited organization.

(d)

Subsection 4.3.2.6 is modified as follows to account for the fact that immediate notification is not always possible:

" Conditions requiring immediate corrective action (i.e.

those which are so severe that any delay would be undesira-ble) shall'be reported immediately to the audited organiza-tion and as soon as practical to the management thereof."

With regard to Section 4.3.3 of ANSI N45.2.12 -

1977Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI N45.2.12 -</br></br>1977" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process. titled Post-Audit Conference:

UE shall substitute and comply with the following paragraph: "For external audits, a post-audit confer-ence shall be held with management of the audited organization to present audit findings and clarify misunderstandings; where no adverse findings exist, this conference may be waived by manage-ment of the audited organization: such waiver shall be documented in the audit report. Unless unusual operating or maintenance conditions preclude attendance by appropriate managers /supervi-

sors, a post-audit conference shall be held with managers / super-visors for internal audits for the same reasons as above. Again, if there are no adverse findings, management of the internal audited organization may waive the post-audit conference:

such waiver shall be documented in the audit report."

OQAM APPENDIX A REGULATORY GUIDE 1.144 (cont.)

With regard to Section 4.4 or ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled Report-1D9:

(a)

This Section requires that the audit report shall be signed by the Audit Team Leader (ATL); this is not always the most expeditious route to take to assure that the audit report is issued as soon as practical. UE shall comply with Section 4.4 as clarified in the following opening: "An audit report, which-shall be signed by the Audit Team Leader (ATL), or the ATL's supervicor in the ATL's absence, shall provide:

In cases where the audit report is not signed by the ATL due to absence, one record copy of the report must be signed by the ATL upon return. The report shall not require the ATL's review / concurrence / signature if the ATL is no longer employed by UE at the time the audit report is issued.

(b)

UE shall comply with subsection 4.4.3 clarified to read:

" Supervisory leve' personnel with whom significant discus-sions were held uring the course of pre-audit (where conducted)

audit, and post-audit (where conducted) activ-itles."

(c). Audit reports may not necessarily contain an evaluation statement regarding the effectiveness of the Quality Assu-rance Program elements which were audited, as required by subsection 4.4.4, but they shall provide a summary of the audited areas and the results which identify the importance of any adverse findings.

With regard to Section 4.5.1 of ANSI N45.2.12 - 1977 titled By Audited Oraanization: UE shall comply with the following clarifi-cation of the Section: Management of the audited organization or activity shall review and investigate adverse audit findings, as necessary, (e.g., where the cause is not already known,-

another organization has not already investigated and found the

cause, etc.)

to determine and schedule appropriate corrective action including action to prevent recurrence. They shall clearly state the corrective action taken or planned to prevent recurrence and the results of the investigation, if conducted. In the event that corrective action is not completed within thirty

days, the audited organization's response shall include a scheduled date for completion of planned corrective action. The audited organi-zation shall take appropriate action to assure that corrective action is accomplished as scheduled. Since the auditing organiza-tion tracks scheduled corrective action completion dates and I

verifies corrective action completion, a follow-up response by l

the audited organization stating the corrective action taken and l

the date that the action was completed is not necessary, provided corrective actions are completed as specified.

If corrective actions are not completed as specified, the audited organization shall provide a revised response stating the corrective action that has been taken, the corrective action yet to be completed, and the date that all corrective action will be completed.

att 16.1 Measures shall be established to assure that condi-gpo 1870 tions adverse to quality are promptly identified, 1903 reported, and corrected. Nonconformances shall be 2978 controlled in accordance with the requirements 3gif described in Section 15. Each of the Nuclear Divi-sion Managers is responsible for developing and implementing a program for identifying and control-ling adverse conditions. This res onsibility may be t

satisfied by one or more programs.

As a minimum each program shall provide for developing and anal yzing trends on a semiannual basis.

Trending of conditions adverse to quality identified at suppli-er's facilities is performed as part of the annual supplier evaluation per OQAM, Section 18.12. Proce-dures shall provide instructions for identifying, reporting, and initiating corrective action to preclude recurrence of adverse conditions. It is understood that the term

" corrective action" includes remedial action necessary to correct the deficiency, as sell as corrective action necessary to preclude recurrcnce.

16.2 Conditions adverse to quality which impede the implementation or reduce the effectiveness of the Operating QA

.rogram shall be controlled by the measures described herein. Adverse conditions may include, but are not limited to, noncompliance *ith procedural requirements; reportable occurrences required by regulations; adverse nonconformance trends; deficiencies ident fled in the OOAP; recur-ring conditions for whit ' past corrective action has been ineffective; or breakdowns in administra-tive and managerial control systems which could result in a system designed to prevent or mitigate serious events not being able to perform its intended function.

16.3 Corrective action documents which record defects in basic components or deviations from technical l

requirements in procurement documents snall be reviewed for reporting applicability under 10CFR21 and other Federal reporting requirements.

3599 16.4 Corrective action documents shall be transmitted 3600 to the responsible organization.

The Quality Assurance Department shall close QA-originated corrective action docu-ments by verifying the implementation and adequacy of corrective action. Copies of completed correc-tive action documents shall be available for management review (hardcopy or electronic media) to keep them apprised of conditions adverse to-qual-ity. The Quality Assurance Department shall period-ically prepare summaries of significant corrective action documents and submit them to the NSRB and appropriate levels of management.

16.7 The closure of corrective action documents shall be accomplished as promptly as practicable but shall occur only after the corrective action taken has been verified.

Verification may be accomplished through direct observations, written communica-

tions, re-audit, surveillances, or other appro-priate means. The nature of the deficiency may be such that remedial actions need to be taken imme-diately whereas development and implementation of corrective action to preclude recurrence may take substantially longer.

TO THE OPERATING QUALITY ASSURANCE NANUAL (OQAN)

J

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

{

The bracketed numbers [ ] in this attachment may apply to-several l

changes. The affected OQAM sections.are referenced following each justification. It should be noted some sections: eppear under more than one justification. Based on Union Electric's evaluations,.

the proposed changes do not represent a reduction in the Operating Quality Assurance Program (OQAP) as previously accepted by the NRC. The OQAM continues to meet the requirements of i

10CFR50, Appendix B.

[1]

Editorial changes to remove redundancy, clarify meaning, reformat in a more logical sequence, and-clarify references.'

(Sections 1.3, 1.4, 9.1-9.3, 18.2, 18.4, 18.6-10.8, 18.10, 18.14; Appendix A, Reg. Guide 1.33, 1.74,-1.94, 1.144)'

?

(2)

Organization changes made to improve interdapartment coordination and efficiency.-(Sections 1.2-1.4, 1.11, 1.21, 2.1, 2.7, 4.10, 4.10.3, 7.5, 7.11,-12.4, 18.2-1(

1, 18.10, 18.11; Appendix A, Reg. Guide 1.144; Figures A, B, and C)

(3)

Added sections or changed text based on the. review of Union Electric commitments to various documents.-'(Sections 1.11, 2.5, 4.8.1, 9.1, 18.8, Reg. Guide ~1.37)

[4]

RLnumbering of Sections. The section. number'shown is the new number. (Sections 1.2 through 1.26, 9.4, 9.6, 10.6, 10.7)

[5]

Changes to corrective action program, OQAM CN 90-10, have not been approved at this time. When comments.are resolved, the revised text will be-inserted:via CN.

[6]

Clarify endorsement of-ANSI N45.2.5-19745to[be consistent-with Reg. Guide 1,58 (Appendix A,' Reg. Guide 1.94)

The change clarifies Union Electric's position'on this-Eagulatory. Guide to be consistent with RegulatoryEGuide 1.58. The change is due to an apparent oversight:in previous OQAM revisions. Per the endorsementLof Regulatory Guide 1.58, personnel other than QC personnel performing

-inspection, examination, and testing activities shall-have appropriate experience, training, and retraining to' assure-competence in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.8-(ANSI /ANS~ 3.1-1978).

l

,..w.,

..:.w._L~,,,...~,

-, ~., n m

...4e

Attechmsnt 3 to-ULNRC-Page 3 of 3 While the change could be construed to-be a lessening of commitment, and Union Electric has not previously taken exception to the requirements of ANSI N45.2.5-1974, Section 2.4; the position taken to Regulatory Guide 1.58 has not changed. Union Electric has persons charged with engineering managerial responsiblity -of the inspection and testing organization who are qualified per ANSI /ANS 3.1-1978. Within the Quality Control organization, a revel III in the civil discipline oversees Level II Inspectors / Testers who are-certified per ANSI N45.2.6-1978 Also, change to ANSI N45.2.5-1974, Section 2.5.2 clarifies UE actions when discrepancies with M&TE or references are found.

[7]

Changes to Commitment Tracking System numbers. These numbers appear in left margin. They are an internal tracking system for UE commitments and have no impact on the stated text.

(Sections 1.3, 1.4, 1.7, 1.8, 1.11-1.13, 1.16, 2.2-2.6, 2.10-2.12, 3.11, 3.18, 3.20, 3.22, 4,

4.1-4.4, 4.8.2-4.8.5, 4.8.7, 4.10, 4.10.1, 4.11, 4.14, 5.1, 7,

7.1-7.3, 7.5, 7.6, 7,8, 7.9, 7.11, 7.14-7.16, 7.18-7.20, 8.4, 10.4-10.12, 2

10.14, 11.1, 11.3, 11.4, 11.6-11.11, 12.1, 12.2, 12.6, 12.7, 12.8, 13.2-13.5, 14.2, 15, 15.2, 15.3, 15.8, 15.9, 16.1, 16.8, 17.2, 17.3, 18, 18.1, 18.2,-18.4, 18.6, 18.9, i

18.10-18.13)

(8)

Added a clarifying note to prevent confusion when purchase documents reference or invoke an approved Supplier Quality Program (Section 4.8)

[9]

The QA Department has maintained that a Reg. Guide is followed as a "si.all" requirement unless otherwise interpreted in either the OQAM, App. A or-FSAR Appendix 3A.

This policy had been previously delineated in an administrative procedure-(APA-ZZ-00100), which is considered a subtier to the OQAM. However, since the OQAM and the FSAR interpret Regulatory Guides it appears more appropriate for this guidance to be in the upper tier documents. Due to this revision, APA-ZZ-00100 would become the implementing procedure to the OQAM/FSAR committent. This is not a change in-commitment, only a relocation of existing guidance. The-FSAR will also bc updated in a aimilar manner. (Appendix A) 3 l
