VEGP-FSAR-13 13.4 OPERATIONAL REVIEW Operating activities that affect nuclear safety are reviewed.
The review program is implemented prior to initial fuel loading and ensures review and evaluation of tests and experiments, unplanned events, and proposed change.
The program complies within the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54 relating to proposed changes, tests, and experiments.
This program is conducted following the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rec.2 1978, Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operations), and ANSI N18.7-1976, Administrative Controls and Quality Assurance for the Operational Phase of Nuclear Power Plants.
The general manager - Vogtle nuclear operations (GMVNO) has responsibility for safe operation of the plant.
He is kept abreast of plant operating conditions by the supervisors who are knowledgeable and experienced in their areas of job responsibility.
The supervisors monitor operating and maintenance activities as part of their normal duties.
In addition, a formal review program is carried out for changes to systems, procedures, tests, experiments, and after-the-fact 16 review and evaluation of unplanned events that affect nuclear safety.
This program is implemented through standing committees, as described below.
13.4.1 ONSITE REVIEW The plant review board (PRB) serves as a review and advisory group to the GMVNO.
The PRB reviews plant administration, I
maintenance, and operations as related to nuclear safety and environmental aspects; ensures these activities are consistent with company policy-approved procedures and operating license provisions; and makes recommendations to the GMVNO on matters brought before it.

Procedures for Preparation, Review, and Control of Procedures These procedures establish the controls for the preparation, review, and control of plant procedures which cover activities as described in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev. 2.
Included within these procedures are provisions to ensure that new or revised procedures are reviewed for adequacy by appropriately qualified personnel other than the originator.
In accordance with these procedures, a reviewer shall establish knowledge of the applicable requirements for a procedure and shall verify the proper incorporation of these requirements in the procedure; additionally, a reviewer shall assess whether the procedure or procedure revision potentially involves a change in the VEGP Technical Specifications or an unreviewed safety question.
To ensure the qualification of reviewers for performing procedure

approval of procedure reviews is delineated in FSAR Table 13.1.2-1
" Resumes of Onsite Supervisory Pe rsonnel. "
Nuclear Operations department heads shall further ensure that procedures described in FSAR Section 13.4.1 are forwarded to the Plant Review Board (PRB) for additional review.
The General Manager - Vogtle Nuclear Operations (GMVN0) has ultimate responsibility for all plant procedures.
Provisions of these procedures establish the GMVN0 as the approving authority for procedures which establish plant wide administrative controls (which implement the Quality Assurance Program and the Technical Specifications Surveillance Program), for Unit Operating Procedures (U0P's), Emergency Operating Procedures (E0P's), Abnormal Operating Procedures (A0P's), procedures for implementing the Security Plan, the Emergency Plan, and the Fire Protection Program, and Fuel Handling Procedures.
Nuclear Operations department heads are established as the approving authority for other procedures covering activities within their area of responsibility.
Additional provisions of these procedures exist to ensure that changes or revisions to procedures are reviewed and approved in accordance with the same administrative controls used for review and approval of new procedures.
A provision is made to ensure that plant procedures are reviewed at least every 2 years by a knowledgeable individual to determine whether changes are necessary or desirable.
Also provisions exist to ensure that procedures, once approved, are distributed appropriately so that only the most current procedures are used by plant personnel.
Controls for the preparation, review and approval of Initial Test Program Procedures are described in FSAR Section 14.2.2.

Procedures for Operating Duties, Responsibilities, and Authority These procedures clearly describe the duties, responsibilities, and authority for the control room personnel, which include the onshift operations supervisor, the shift supervisor, the plant operator, the assistant plant operator, and the shift technical advisor.
The command line of authority for these personnel is established by these procedures.
Specifically, the onshift operations supervisor is established as the senior operations representative on each shift and shall have responsibility for the safe and efficient operation of the plant.
The shift supervisor is established as having responsibility for the safe and efficient operation of his assigned unit, j
since a shift supervisor is assigned to each operating l@
unit on each shift.
Included in these procedures are l
provisions for the onshift operations supervisor to maintain a broad perspective of operational conditions affecting the safety of the plant at all times and provisions for him not to become totally involved in any single operation during plant transients or emergency conditions.
Other provisions establish the onshift operatio.ns supervisor as having the authority and responsibility to declare emergencies and for functioning as the emergency director until being relieved of this responsibility by a higher ranking qualified manager.
Provisions for ensuring that the onshift operations supervisor is not routinely performing administrative functions that could detract from or that are subordinate to his command function and his responsibility for ensuring the safe operation of the plant are exemplified by the following:
i 1.
An operations supervisor who is not on shift shall prepare work and vacation schedules.
i 2.
The. shift supervisor shall issue clearances for equipment within his assigned unit.
3.
The shift supervisor shall have the adm1nistrative duty of limiting access to the control room.

INSERT E The General Manager Vogtle Nuclear Operations (GMVN0) shall annually review the administrative duties of the on-shift operations supervisor to ensure that he is not routinely performing administrative duties as described.
Also, the GMVN0 will annually reissue a directive that emphasizes the pri-mary management responsibility of the on-shift operations supervisor.(or during his absence from the control room, the individual designated to assume the command functions) for safe operation of the plant under all conditions on his shift and that clearly establishes his command duties.

Equipment Control Procedures '
These procedures provide instructions for releasing plant equipment or systems for maintenance, testing,.or inspection; they establish the shift supervisor as the responsible authority for issuing and releasing clearances for equipment to be taken out of service within his assigned unit.
The provisions of these procedures include steps to ensure that equipment taken out of service and placed in a controlled status is clearly identified by the ute of tagging.
Other provisions provide for a second qualified person verifying the isolation or restoration of a safety-related component or system, including proper realignment unless functional testing can be performed 16 to prove the correct realignment of all equipment, valves, and switches involved.
In cases of significant radiation exposure, a second verification of safety-related system alignment will not be made.
Additional provisions are made to maintain the status of equipment and to determine the operability of equipment upon return to service; on return to service a system lineup verification will be made and additional lineup verifications may be made at periedic intervals while in service.
These procedures address the requirements of NUREG-0737, item I.C.6 and item II.K.l.10, and the requirements of ANSI N1817-1976, Section 5.2.6, relative to equipment control.
