SUMMARY
/dINUTES OF THE ACRS SUBCOMMITTEE ON QUALITY AND QUALITY ASSURANCE IN DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION DECEMBER 13, 1985 WASHINGTON, D.C.
The ACRS Subcommittee on Quality and Quality Assurance in Design and Construction met in Washington, D.C. on December 13, 1985 to discuss with the NRC Staff inspection programs and readiness reviews to ensure i quality in nuclear power plant design and construction. In addition, their programs to deal with allegations concerning plant quality at the operating license stage was discussed.
Notice of the meeting was published in the Federal Register on November 22, 1985 (Attachment A). The schedule of items covered in the meeting is in Attachment B. A list of handouts kept with the office copy of the minutes is included in Attachment C. The entire meeting was open to the public. There were no written or oral statements received or presented from members of the public at the meeting.
R. Major and E. Igne were the cognizant ACRS staff members for the meeting.
Principal Attendees ACRS NRC F. Remick, Chairman J. Partlow D. Ward, Member G. Ankrum C. Siess, Member R. Heishman G. Reed, Member J. Milhoan C. Michelson, Member R. Brady C. Wylie, Member J. Knight M. Williams R. Brady, NRR, briefly discussed the allegation management system, as defined in NRC Manual Chapter 0517. This chapter was drafted by I&E in 1984 and issued by the ED0 in September 1984, in draft form, as policy L:^ . . , .

o QUALITY & QUALITY ASSURANCE 2 December 13, 1985 Meeting guidance. This chapter is presently being revised to account for the Commission decisions on late-filed allegations and confidentiality, and 0517 should be finalized in February 1986. Regarding confidentiality, R. Brady stated that this is used as a tool when necessary to obtain information not otherwise obtainable. Confidentiality is not offered to all allegers; although if offered a written confidentiality agreement is signed. Identity of the alleger is released outside NRC only by a court order, by order of the Commission or released to congress and federal or state agencies.
The late-filed allegation policy resulted from receipt of a large number of allegations just prior to licensing. The policy stresses the respon-sibility of all to bring concerns to the applicant or NRC as soon as possible. It establishes a screening criteria for those allegations that are new and material to a licensing decision based on the likelihood that the allegation is true and of possible safety significance. All allegations are tracked via a computer system.
In reply to a committee question regarding a cost-benefit analysis on the NRC Staff's allegation program, the Staff stated that no cost-benefit analysis has been performed and indicated that some signif-icant safety findings have been found, although only a very limited number. The NRC Staff feels that all allegations must be " looked at" and not disregarded because of their feeling of accountability. It was stated that about 17 FTEs process allegations.
J. Partlow, I&E, discussed the NRC inspection programs. He stated that the objective of the inspection program is to ensure quality con-struction and safe operation of licensed facilities through verification that activities are in compliance with NRC requirements and evaluation of licensee performance in discharging primary responsibility for nuclear safety. Inspection program resources are allocated depending
QUALITY & QUALITY ASSURANCE 3 December 13, 1985 Meeting upon type of facility, status of construction / operation and regulatory performance. For example, a single unit site is allocated about:
. 4 inspector FTE/yr during construction
. 6 FTE/yr during pre-op testing
. 4.7 FTE/yr during startup (2 years after OL)
. 4 FTE/yr during operation (after first 2 years)
Safety assessment of licensee performance (SALP) is one of the primary tools used by I&E. One objective of the SALP program is to devote inspection attention to specific plants based upon performance. SALP Category 1 performance indicates a candidate for reduced inspection and Category 3 for increased inspection. The SALP program is generally performed every 12-18 months to determine in a qualitative manner the plant and utility performance. It was mentioned that SALP is not a detail inspection program (it is a records review) but a qualitative judgment of plant performance.
The three basic segments of the NRC inspection program are as listed:
. Resident inspection - the agency's continuing onsite presence toward direct observation and special activities Region-based inspection - complements the resident program through programmatic inspections which provide perspective in evaluating regulatory performance since they routinely inspect many sites within the region.
. IE headquarters inspection - conducts programs which are most effectively managed on a national basis, for example
- 1) vendor inspection which focuses on vendor performance problems; i
- 2) construction appraisal team (CAT)/ performance appraisal team (PAT) inspections which provide a mechanism for assessment of
+
QUALITY & QUALITY ASSURANCE 4 December 13, 1985 Meeting regional performance, monitoring INPO effectiveness and developing new inspection programs;
- 3) independent design inspections (IDI) which provide for a core of design expertise in headquarters and concentrates on AE e
activities.
It was stated that CAT inspections are being performed at a rate of about five plants per year, and PAT inspections about 3-4 per year.
J. Partlow briefly discussed IE plans for the next several years. They include the following:
increase to two residents at most single unit operating sites, increased use of regional team inspections to diagnose problems, emphasis on performance measures for evaluating program adequacy, developtrent of outage inspection program aimed at ensuring that modifications and repairs do not degrade safety margins,
. inspection emphasis during first two years of reactor operation, additional emphasis on utility responsibility to procure quality parts / services from vendors, and
. development of realistic uses of PRA in inspection program.
Some highlights of the discussions between the NRC Staff and the Commit-tee are as follows:
. It was noted that inspection programs that are related to con-struction activities, such as, CAT, IDI and IDVP are winding down, as the agency shifts emphasis away from plant construction and towards plant operations.
It was suggested that some sort of cost / benefit analysis be applied to the inspection programs and the way NRR handles alleg'tions.
a In view of the reduction of agency resources, it would appear useful to ensure funds spent on addressing allegations were contributing
,o QUALITY & QUALITY ASSURANCE 5 December 13, 1985 Meeting an appropriate amount of reduction in risk to the public health and safety. A concern raised was that expeditures on allegations could be draining resources from programs which could make a larger contribution to safety.
. Another comment indicated that cost / benefit analyses could be made on items discovered in past allegation investigations. The safety significance of potential future allegations can not be predicted.
The Staff noted that only a few allegations result in a finding that has safety implications. Presently the Staff is not able to give an indication of the cost / benefit from the various programs.
The Staff appeared to perceive it as their duty to investigate allegations that are referred to them.
. The Staff noted that there is value in inspections which discover no safety problems. A finding that things are in good order can have benefit to the Staff and Applicant. For example, ASLB hear-ings have been avoided by the results of favorable inspections.
. The Staff felt that as the agency shifts toward a more plant operations orientation, the inspection programs, over time, will become more integrated.
. In response to questions from Mr. Reed, the Staff indicated that plant safety is ultimately the responsibility of the utility. This does include the utility being responsible for the vendor's prod-ucts. The Staff expects the utility to be informed customers.
