Discussion of Changes in the Quality Assurance Program Description 1

, Identification of Change: l i

! The DAEC current commitment to Regulatory Guide 1.144 Revision 1 1980 (c.3.b.2) is

! m follows:

l i A documented evaluation of the supplier should be performed annually. Where l applicable, this evaluation should take into account (1) review of supplier-i fumished documents such as certificates of conformances, nonconformance notices, and corrective actions, (2) results of previous source verifications, audits, and receiving inspections, (3) operating experience of identical or similar products fumished by the same supplier, and (4) results of audits from other sources (e.g., customer, ASME, or NRC audits).

i The DAEC revised commitment is stated in the revised 17.2 A-13 paragraph 18.5 (of

+

this submittal).

i Reason for Change:

?

l DAEC has developed more effective and efficient practices for conducting the reviews l recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.144 Revision 1,1980. The DAEC's operating experience and the operating experience of other licensee's is included in supplier evaluations (as applicable). As a Nuclear Procurement issues Committee (NUPIC) j member the DAEC receives significant information as a result of audits performed by

other members. The significant information is included in the supplier evaluation process on a real time basis. An additional annual review is an unnecessary resource i burden because the function and purpose of the review has already been accomplished.

l Reliance for effective control over supplier quality is better placed on real time j evaluations than by deferring reviews to one selected time frame, i

i These activities may result in some supplier evaluations being performed more j frequently than annually to address the operating experience, etc. (categories of l information identified above), and for some suppliers the evaluation period may be

j. extended, commensurate with actual procurement activity.

j

! Basis for Concluding the Change Continues to Comply with 10 CFR 50

Appendix B and Previous Commitments:

I 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion Vil, " Control of Purchased Material, Equipment and Services", requires:

$ "The effectiveness of the control of quality by contractors and subcontractors shall be j assessed by the applicant or designee at intervals consistent with the importance, l complexity, and quantity of the product or services.'

j d

l 1

Attachment 2

' NG-96-2432 l

i Discussion of Changes in the Quality Assurance Program Description I

This requirement continues to be met through the performance of an on-going evaluation system versus a delayed process of an annual evaluation. Existing DAEC practices are

performing the function described in Regulatory Guide 1.144 Revision 1,1980 more j effectively and efficiently through an on-going evaluation process.

! I Other considerations supporting the basis for the change are:

1. Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Prepared Improvements to Quality Assurance l l Program (NEI letter dated January 30,1996 to Suzanne C. Black of the Nuclear l Regulatory Commission).
2. Letter dated October 24,1996, from Suzanne C. Black of the NRC to Stephen Floyd j (NEI). 'l This change is a reduction in commitment. The evaluation function is being performed in a more efficient, effective and productive manner that enhances safety through a more expedient assessment of potential deficiencies.

2.0 Page A-13; Position 19.3 on Regulatory Guide 1.146 t

Background:

i The process of becoming a Lead Auditor is defined by ANSI N45.2.23-1978,

! " Qualification of Quality Assurance Program Audit Personnel for Nuclear Power Plants"

] as endorsed by NRC Regulatory Guide 1.146 of August 1980. This standard also j incorporates the requirements of ANSI N45.2.12 which defines the process by which audits are performed.

As defined by ANSI N45.2.23, the process of becoming Lead Auditor certified is essentially composed of three parts:

-*- Candidate's prior education and experience, professional accomplishments, and some

, discretion by management in regards to the candidates maturity, etc., to achieve 10 or i more points within the system defined by section 2.3.1.

Attachment 2 NG-96-2432 Discussion of Changes in the Quality Assurance Program Description l i

I e Candidate receives, or is evaluated and found to already have, knowledge of quality

, assurance program requirements as defined by section 2.3.3. This section addresses

! knowledge and understanding of ANSI N45.2 standards, and other applicable i standards, general understanding of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, auditing techniques, and 1 j audit planning. Then as stated by section 2.3.3.5, on-the-job training is required to demonstrate an understanding of the audit process. The lead auditor candidate is also required to take an examination to evaluate the candidate's knowledge of these j requirements.

i e The candidate is required to demonstrate their capabilities by participation in the

performance of audits as defined by section 2.3.4.

From the above chronology, the process oflead auditor qualification is composed of prior knowledge and experience, knowledge obtained in the quality assurance processes, and I

demonstrated performance. This approach to lead auditor qualification is a systematic approach and ensures an individual has demonstrated their ability to lead audits prior to being lead auditor certified. Section 2.3.4, " Audit Participation" currently states: "The Prospective Lead Auditor shall have participated in a minimum of five (5) quality

assurance audits within a period of time not to exceed three (3) years prior to the date of
qualification, one audit of which shall be a nuclear quality assurance audit within the year

! prior to his qualification." In addition, there are other approaches that address the same j objective, based on the candidate being able to demonstrate competency as a lead auditor. l l Identification of Change: l l Section 2.3.4 is replaced with:

i

" Prospective Lead Auditors shall demonstrate their ability to effectively implement the g audit process and effectively lead an audit team. Upon successful demonstration of the ,

j ability to effectively implement the audit process and effectively lead audits and having 4 met the other provisions of Section 23 of ANSI N45.2.23-1978, licensee management j may certify the individual as a Lead Auditor." This prospective Lead Auditor shall have j participated in at least one nuclear quality assurance audit within the year preceding the

individuals effective date of qualification.

Attachment 2  !

NG-96-2432 Discussion of Changes in the Quality Assurance Program Description l l

\

l l

Reason for Change: l Currently, section 2.3.4, ANSI N45.2.23 for Audit Participation does not ensure a lead auditor has the necessary skills prior to certification. The standard requires

" participation" in five audits and does not require a prospective lead auditor to demonstrate their skills as a lead auditor during the five audits in which they

" participate". An individual may have related experience and be capable of demonstrating their skills to lead an audit in less than five audits, but the standard does ,

not permit a licensee to certify such an individual until the individual had " participated"  !

in at least five audits. The objective of this section of the standard is for the prospective )

lead auditor to demonstrate the ability to lead audits. The prospective lead auditor may )

, need less than, or more than, five audits to demonstrate adequate on-the-job performance for certification depending on the abilities of the individual.

As the nuclear industry moves into the performance based regime for audits, many utilities have established rotation programs, or similar programs to broaden personnel experience by working in different areas, e.g., auditing. These individuals are generally l capable of demonstrating their ability to effectively lead audits in less than five audits, but because of the restrictive nature of section 2.3.4 of ANSI N45.2.23, they must continue to be supervised to comply with these provisions. This is unnecessary and is not an effective utilization oflicensee resources.

Licensee management should be permined to assess the performance of the prospective lead auditor against the knowledge and performance criteria described in the ANSI standards; knowledge of the audit process, knowledge of the licensee's quality assurance program, knowledge of the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, knowledge of applicable and pertinent sections ofindustry standards, the candidates demonstrated performance in implementing the audit process (including leading), demonstrated oral and written communication skills, and demonstrated interpersonal skills interacting with other departments within the Company or supplier organizations.

Basis for Concluding the Change Continues to Comply With 10 CFR 50 Appendix B and Previous Quality Assurance Program Commitments:

The proposed change continues to require demonstrated performance by the individual prior to certification as a lead auditor but provides management the flexibility to certify the individual, once the skills have been demonstrated. This is consistent with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, criterion II, Quality Assurance Program, which requires a program be defined for the indoctrination and training of personnel performing activities affecting quality as necessary to assure that suitable proficiency is achieved and maintained. This 4-

Attachment 2 NG-96-2432 Discussion of Changes in the Quality Assurance Program Description l

is also consistent with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, criterion XVIII, Audits, which requires  ;

audits to be performed by appropriately trained personnel.

Other considerations supporting the basis for change are:

1 Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Proposed Improvements to Quality Assurance Program (NEI letter dated January 30,1996 to Suzanne C. Black of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission).

2. Letter dated October 24,1996 from Suzanne C. Black of the NRC to Stephen Floyd (NEI).

This change is a reduction in commitment.

l IES Utiliti s. Inc. (formerly Iowa Electric Light and Power Company) is responsible for all station operations from the start of preoperational testing and is responsible for using properly licensed personnel to operate the plant. Technical assistance and direction during the preoperational testing, initial core loading. startup, and precommercial testing was provided by i Bechtel Corporati~on (Bechtel) and the General Electric Company (GE). Technical assistance is made available as required during plant operation.

l l The DAEC Plant Manager is responsible for the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of the facility. He has a staff of trained and properly licensed personnel to accomplish all of the various plant functions and disciplines. All phases of plant operation are performed in accordance with written and approved operation, maintenance, radiation protection. and emergency procedures. These procedures factor in all available experience encountered in the startup and operation of earlier boiling-water reactor (BWR) plants. Significant operations. tests, and pertinent information are recorded and a file of these records is maintained.

. A training program to qualify the staff to satisfy the then existing Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) license requirements for the initihl fuel loading, preliminary testing, and commercial operation was carried out. Training, retraining, and licensing has continued after

startup to ensure an adequate number oflicensed operators and properly trained replacement

~ '

personnel for all disciplines.

Senior Licensed Operator be present at all times in the control room when the unit is being operated. The@perations Shift Supervisor is required for all reactor modes except cold shutdown and refuel mode.
3. Nuclear Station Operating Engineer - RO The Operating Engineer, on instructions from the Operations Shift Supervisor, directs generator loading and electrical switching. He monitors, controls, and directs the operation of the reactor, turbogenerator, auxiliaries, and electrical equipment. He interprets, audits, and reviews instrumentation and chart indications as to the performance, efficiency, radiation, and chemistry of the plant. He assists in the training of personnel in the skills and knowledge required for the safe and efficient operation of i the facility. He performs work in reactor-fuel-handling operations involving the preparation, transfer, loading, and unloading of fuel. He may be assigned to the maintenance crew while the reactor plant is not in operation.
