1.0 POLICY STATEMENT It is the policy of GPU Nuclear to conduct decommissioning activities in such a manner as l to ensure protection of the health and safety of the public and the personnel on site. To l

implement this policy, GPU Nuclear will adhere to the Quality Assurance (QA) l requirements established in this Decommissioning Quality Assurance Plan and shall comp'.y I with, and be responsive to, applicable federal, state and local requirements; 10CFR19, l 10CFR20,10CFR21 and appropriate sections of 10CFR50; applicable industry codes and standards; and commitments made to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The packaging and transportation of radioactive waste will continue to comply with the

requirements of 1000-PLN-7200.01, "GPU Nuclear Operational Quality Assurance Plan" and 10CFR71.

Project procedures shall provide for compliance with appropriate regulatory, statutory, license, and industry requirements. Specific quality assurance requirements and organintional responsibilities for implementation of these requirements shall be specified.

Compliance with this QA program and provisions of project procedures is mandatory for personnel with respect to decommissioning activities which may affect gaality or the health and safety of project personnel or the general public. Personnel shall, therefore, be familiar with the requirements of responsibilities of the QA program that are applicable to their individual activities and interfaces.

l 2.0 ORGANIZATION AND FUNCTIONAL OA RESPONSIBILITIES 2.1 General Th' persons and organintions performmg QA functions report to a management level that assures the required authority and organiurional freedom are provided,  !

including sufficient independence from cost and schedule. The individuals assigned I the responsibility for assuring effective execution of any portion of the QA Plan have I direct access to the levels of management necessary to perform QA functions.

2.2 Orennf= tion The Saxton Nuclear Experimental Corporation (SNEC) facility orgamnrion is structured on the basis that the arrainment of the objectives of the QA Program relies on those who manage, perform, and support the activities within the scope of this i plan; and assurance of this attamment relies on those who have no direct i

responsibility for minnging or performmg the activity.

The audit function is provided by GPU Nuclear and is independent of SNEC facility management. The independence of the audit function is maintained I by the auditors having unrestricted access to the GPU Nuclear Office of the President: This access ensures that issues not capable of being resolved at a lower management level may be addressed to the highest management possible. GPU Nuclear's NSA Department is responsible to provide auditors certified to meet the requirements of ANSI N45.2.23 and to establish an audit program for the activities listed in Section 3.0.~ The audit repons are forwarded to the GPU Nuclear Presirlent, the SNEC President, the GPU Nuclear Director, Nuclear Safety & Technical Services and the l

Radiation Safety Committee within 60 days of the completion of the audit.

3.0 DECOMMISSIONING OUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM 3.1 General This Decomnussioning Quality Assurnce Plan is the highest GPU Nuclear document ,

which provides the generic and some specific requirements and methods to control l

activities. The term " Program" as used herein includes this Plan and the approved l documents which are used to implement this Plan. This Plan is implemented through such approved documents. ,

The Saxton Nuclear Experimental Corporation Facility Decommissioning Quality Assurance Program has been established to control the activities performed by GPU Nuclear, and its cohtractors, within the scope of this Plan. This control is exerted

, prunarily through the provision of, and compliance with, implementing documents and assurance that such documents are adequate and consistently used.

Adherence to the requirements of this Plan is Innndatory for all GPU Nuclear organintions and for all extemal orgamnrions providing items, parts, materials, of conducting activities which are within the scope of this Plan.

This Plan shall be issued under the authority of the GPU Nuclear President, and shall be reviewed by the Director, Nuclear Safety Assessment. All changes to the Plan shall be reviewed by the Director, Nuclear Safety Assessment and approved by the GPU Nuclear President.

3.2 Scope The scope of this Plan includes radiological safety and implementation of the regulations as committed to in Section 1.0 of this Pian. To ensure consistency in identifying those items, parts, materials and activuies withia the scope of this Plan, a classification process shall be developed and documented. This process relies on the use of the term "QA Plan Scope".

3.2.1 A Quality Classification process for items shah be developed. This classification process shall produce a Quality Classi5 cation List which identifies the permanent plant structures, systems, and components that are within the scope of this Plan. New items to which this Plan applies shall be d

added to the Quality Classification List subsequent to their installation.

4 3.2.2 Activities within the scope of this Plan are those directly related to radiological safety and implementation of the regulations as committed to in Section 1.0 of this Plan. These activities are delineated below.

4 Support activities within the scope of this Plan are system / component /part

! classification, design, procurement, fabrication, bandling, shipping, storage, cleaning, erecting, installing, testing, repairing, training, welding, in-service inspection, heat treatment, document control and records management.

Decommissioning activities within the scope of this Plan are equipment control, surveillance testing, functional testing, maintenance (including lifting and handling which could jeopardize operability of QA Plan Scope equipment or whose potential drop could have adverse radiological impact),

housekeeping, fire protection, radiological controls, radiological.

environmental monitoring, technical specification compliance and emergency preparedness.

Assurance activities within the scope of this Plan are ardit, inspection, non-destructive examination, monitoring, surveillance, and safety review.

Assurance activities are performed by individuals who are not directly responsible for managing or performing the work or activity. Nuclear Safety Assessment personnel, who are independent of the organization performing the work or activity, perform periodic assessments of the assurance activities not performed by the Nuclear Safety Assessment Department to assure effectiveness and adequacy.

The above activities are controlled through the use of approved documents, which are, as a mimmum, consistent with the requirements of this Plan.

This Plan shall remam in effect throughout the decommissioning project.
