SUBJECT:

2.206 REQUEST TO REV0KE CONSTRUCTION PERftITS FOR WPPSS NUCLEAR PROJECTS 4 & 5 Attached is a petition filed under 10 CFP. 2.206 by the Coalition for Safe Power which requests issuance of an order to show cause why the construction remits for WPPSS Nuclear Project Units 4 and 5 shculd not be revoked. The Coalition believes that such action is appropriate, because WPPSS has decidcd to teminate the projects. You should note that NRR currently has for action another petition filed by the Coalition that requests revocation cf the WPPSS Unit 4 construction pemit on the basis of an alleged naterial false statenent.

Although you could grant the petition (and have granted a similar petitien to revoke the Tyrore construction pemit), no compelling reasons require you to take such ection at this time. WPPSS is apparently pursuing options to transfer the pemits and has expressed a desire to retain the pemits while it pursues a transfer or other temination options. Even though WPPSS does not intend to conplete the project, you do not have to issue an order to show cause at this instant, because ellowing the pemits to renain in effect does not raise a " substantial health or safety issue." See Northern Indiana Public Service Co. (Bailly Nuclear-1), 7 NRC 429, 433 (1978). WPPSS' decision to halt construction poses in itself no hazard to public CONTACT: Stephen Burns x27268 g--r : ;

. heal.th and safety. */ In the absence of such hazards, you are well within your discretion to pemit WPPSS to pursue its various options.

Although the NRC has no interest in seeing that WPPSS salvages its investment in Units 4 & 5, there is no reason for us to obstruct WPPSS' efforts, particularly when no health and safety concerns are posed. You may deny, therefore, the 2.206 petition at this time. Your denial would have to be coupled with a denial, if that is appropriate, of the earlier 2.206 petition on WPPSS Unit 4.

You could postpone any action on the petition until WPPSS' plans are fim. Thus, you would be able to grant the petition if it became cicar at some future date that WPPSS had no realistic expectation of transferring the pemits and fomal temination of the pemits seemed appropriate.

Alternatively, you could deny the petition if WPPSS had a reasonable expectation of transferring the pemits (subject, of course, to 10 CFR 50.80 and related procedural requirements) and no other reasons warranted revocation. However, it may take a year or more for a clear picture to emerge. In the meantime, the petitioner might make repeated complaints for failure to act on the petition and even seek judicial review to compel action.

As part of your consideration of the petition, you could compel WPPSS under 10 CFR 50.54(f) to fomally explain its intentions and its reasons for retai6ing the construction pemits. A 50.54(f) le'tter would provide you the same infomation that an answer to an order to show cause would, but the 50.54(f) letter, unlike an order to show cause, has no risk of throwing the staff into litigation.

I would be happy to discuss these various options with yob and will assist your staff in developing an appropriate response to the petition.

In the meantime, you should acknowledge receipt of the

  • /

Arguably, if WPPSS is able to transfer the pemits to another utility, some questions might be raised about the adequacy of construction in light of the project's abandonment by WPPSS (e.o.,

if QA records were not preserved). Such questions go, however, to the issue of whether the pemits should be transferred (and on what conditions) or whether the facility has been constructed properly such that construction may continue or an operating license may be granted. "Let the buyer beware" - i.e., the risk of such problems falls on any proposed transferee of the pemits, and you are not required to protect the transferee from such risks.

In all events, it appears from Attachment C to the Coaliticn's petition that WPPSS has taken steps to preserve plant equipment and records and Region V is monitoring WPPSS' activities in accordance with WPPSS' temination plans.

CPPR-155 SHOW CAUSE PETITION. BROUGHT PURSUANT TO 10 CFR 2.206(a) REGARDING WASHINGTON PUBLIC POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM PROJECTS 4 & 5, MARCH, 1982 Introduction 1.

This petition is brought by the Coalition for Safe Power (hereinafter refered to as " Coalition") before the Director, Nu-clear Reactor Regulation purauaat to Chapter 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 2.206 (a).

The petition alleges that the decision of the Washington Public Power Supply System (WPPSS)

Board of Directors made on January 22, 1982 to terminate the projects 4 and 5 is basis upon which to revoke their respective construction permits.

Description of Petitioner 2.

The Coalition is a non-profit citizens organization, founded in 1969 to work for safe energy.

Its work includes research and education.

The Coalition, through its officers and attorneys, has represetned its members before the Commission, as well as state agencies on questions of nuclear power safety and licensing and h f electric utility rates.

The Coalition has been granted full par-hg ty status in four proceedings before the commission including the o

original application for construction permit for the Skagit Nuclear g

Projects, Units 1 and 2, application for construction permits of Pebble Springs Nuclear Plants, Units 1 and 2, and two license S

$0% J *3 42 )#0 599

amendments for the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant.

The. Coalition has.also filed several Show Cause petitiops before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Authority 3.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206(a) the Coalition requests that the Director, Nuclear Reactor Regulation, institute a pr6ceeding pursuant to 10 CFR 2.202 to revoke the WPPSS construction permits Nos. CPPR-174 and CPPR-155 based *on the inability of WPPSS to raise the necessary construction funds for the projects and the concurrent decision by the Board of Directors to terminate the plants.

Statement of Facts 4.

On May 29, 1981, the Managing Director of WPPSS, Robert Ferguson, asked the Board of Directors to slow construction on WNP-4 and 5 because of continuing problems in financing the pro-jects.

In his speech (Attachment A), Mr. Ferguson states:

Quite frankly, funding the five projects at this $23.8 billion estimated cost level pre-sents a very very difficult problem in today's financial market, j

Completing all five projects at this budget level will require that we raise something in excess of $3 billion this year, and quite frankly, this challenges us with one of the most difficult funding programs in the United States.

(pg. 2) 5.

On June 16, 1981 the WPPSS Board of. Direct 6ss Voted to support the Managing Director's request for a one year morato-rium on the projects.

Cessation of construction occured in July 1981.

6.

By letter dated February 1, 1982, Mr. Robert Ferguson informed Mr. William J. Dircks, Executive Director for Opera-tions, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (Attachment B) that l

the WPPSS Board of Directors had, on January 22, 1982, adopted a resolution terminating projects 4 and 5.

7.

The NRC, in a letter from R.L. Tedesco, Assistant Direc-tor for Licensing, Division of Licensing to Mr. Ferguson, dated March 2, 1982, confirmed the intent of WPPSS to terminate the projects.

(Attachment C) 8.

It is common knowledge that the decision to " mothball" the projects was made due to lack of construction funds with which to complete their construction.

It is also common know-ledge that the ability of WPPSS to raise the necessary funds for controlled " termination" is in serious jeopardy.

Conclusions of Law

9. 42 U.S.C.

$2236 (a) and 10 CFR 50.100 provide that a construc-tion permit may be revoked because of " conditions which would warrant the Commission to refuse to grant a license on an origi-nal application..."

10.

42 U.S.C. 52236(a) and 10 CFR 50.100 also provide that a construction permit may be revoked "for failure to construct...

a facility in accordance with the terad of the const'ruction per-mit..."

11.

Thus, the inability of WPPSS to construct the projects (see para. 4,5, and 8) and the unwaivering and unequivocal in-tent of WPPSS to abandon the projects (see. para. 6 and 7) fufill the respective conditions of the Atomic Energy Act and Chapter 10 of the Code of rederal Regulations as set forth in paragraphs 9 and 10 above.

Relief Requested 12.

Those projects were under cc,nstruction pursuant to Construction Pernits CPPR-174 and CPPR-155, respectively. At the time that work was halted,-

We are willing to meet with your staff to brief it on details of the efforts contemplated.

Phase'Two of the termination plan will comence only after the Supply System determines, subject to the rights of the Participants and Pacific Power and Light (10% owner of WNP-5), that it is no longer prudent to expect that the projects can be sold in their entirety within a reasonable time and without unreasonable expense. No definite time period has been set for completion of the first phase and initiation of the second.

With regard to WNP-4, the application for an Operating License for WNP-1 and WNP-4, including the FSAR, FER a.nd General Information Document, was submitted to the NRC on November 25, 1981 Because we intended at that time to resume construction of WNP-4 following the extended delay, the application addressed both WNP-i and WNP-4.

Subject:

Termination of Washington Nuclear. Projects 4 and 5 In your letter of February 1,1982, to Mr. W. J. Dircks, you discussed the Supply System's intent to maintain the structures and equipment at Washington Nuclear Project (WNP) Nos. 4 and 5 in a licensable ' condition at least through the period you have termed Phase One and to comply with all existing construction permit conditions and requirements. Our preliminary assessment of this decision does not indicate that any additional near-term action other than that taken or, planned is necessary at this time on the part of the Supply System.

It is our understanding that the Supply System intends to carry out the management plan presented to the Region V Office on December 10, 1981, insofar as maintaining ~

the plant equipment and records. The NRC Resident Inspectors and Regional Inspec-tors intend to conduct their activities (inspection surveillance, audit) on both units in accordance with this plan until such time as the Supply System announces -

termination of phase one.

-tion.-You should, amend the pindiiig Xp~ plication for ~ operating licenses ~for WNP-l' and WNP-4 to reflect the present status of the WNP-4 project. Because the staff expects to coglete its acceptance review for WNPJ1 only by mid-March 1982, it may be advisable for. you to await the outcome,of that review and amend your application to delete WNP-4 at that time. We could then docket and notice the application for an operating license for WNP-1 only-Other aspects of the termination of WNP-4 and WNP-5 could also be discussed at that time.

EXTENDED CONSTRUCTION DELAY AT WNP-4 AND WNP-5 DOCKET NOS. 50-513 AND 50-509 A meeting was held in Region V with representatives of the Washington Public Power Supply System on December 10, 1981 to review the licensee's plans for the extended construction delay ("mothballing") of the subject facilities.

IE Report Nos. 50-513/81-11 and 50-509/81-21 contain a summary of the results of that meeting. Enclosed is a copy of the licensee's management plan for mothballing the subject facilities.

The intent of the RV inspection program for WNP-4/5 during the mothball period will be to assure that the licensee has established and implemented plans, instructions and procedures for the preservation and maintenance of equipment, materials, structures and records in a timely manner in conformance with the established QA program. Our inspections will initially include the following:

Review Management Plan Review and evaluate list of equipment, materials, and structures, including preservation requirements. Also consider " minimum attention with risk" category items Evaluate program for segregation of " wasted" material when a3propriate Initially examine records retention program and conduct inspections thereaf ter of records of different organization / contractor's approximately quarterly Monthly tour of plants Quarterly inspection of stored materials l

n November 6,1981 MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR EXTENDED CONSTRUCTION DELAY OF WNP-4/5 1.0 OVERVIEW l.1 INTRODUCTION This Management Plan is a description of the general policy and guidelines to be followed in bringing the WNP-4/5 Projects to an extended construction delay status. The Supply System will use this plan as the basis for all management direction with respect to efforts on Projects 4 and 5.*

The extended construction delay status is to be executed within severely limited funding constraints while preserving the assets of the Projects for a two-year period.

The term commonly used to describe this extended construction delay is " mothball."

k 1.2 REASONS FOR THE DELAY 8ecause of the severe problems in financing the construction of Units 4 and 5 in parallel with the other three Supply System Projects, the Governors of Washington and Oregon appointed a special Blue Ribbon Panel of senior businessmen to evaluate the situation and provide their recommendations. The reconnended action, on September 18, 1981, was to place WNP-4 and 5 in a minimum cost status while preserving the assets for a period of at least two years beginning July 1, 1981. The Participants Committee representing the 88 participants in WNP-4/5 approved a resolution on September 24,

1981, supporting these reconnendations.

The Supply System Board of Directors directed implementation of those recommendations on September 25, 1981, in Resolution No.1187 (See Appendix A) and further directed preparation of an amended construction budget for fiscal. years 1982 and 1983 reflecting the same.

2.1 GENERAL It is emphasized that funding of the WNP-4/5 mothballing will be a not to exceed amount for the period July 1,1981 through June 30, 1983. At the present time, agreement has not been reached concerning the availability and specific timing of certain fundirg. A preliminary financial baseline for the mothballing period is shown in Table 1.

Table 2 summarizes by major t,udget line item the preliminary estimated cash requirements.

2.2 BUDGET AND CASH FLOW REQUIREMENTS The construction delay on WNP-4 and 5 necessitates an amended 1982 construction budget for all five projects. Amended 1982 construction budgets and related cash flows for WNP-1, 2 and 3, and the WNP-4/5 FY-1982 and 1983 baseline budget and cash flow as outlined in Appendix B f

are to be prepared and submitted for action by the Board of Directors in i

January 1982.

2.3 GENERAL BUDGET GUIDANCE 2.3.1 Scope The scope of the mid-year review will include the following for all five projects:

l o all budget line items o revised estimate at completion, based on actual cost through September 1981 and estimate to completion for WNP-1, 2 and 3.

g o associated cash flow forecasts o for WNP-4 and 5 only, special emphasis must be given to the cost estimates and related cash flow forecasts for fiscal years 1982 and 1983 based on slowdown / mothball directives. Specific preparation criteria for this is provided in Appendix B.

o For WNP-1 and 3 only, the amended 1982 construction budget estimates shall assume that WNP-1 and 3 are single units and require identification of costs that would shift to the twin-unit (4/5) if restarted on July 1, 1983 consistent with the principle of equity, i.e., " cost allocated on the basis of proportion of respective benefit."

l 2.3.2 Responsibilities Responsibilities for preparation, review and approval of revised estimates remain the same as defined for the 1982 budget.

2.3.3 General Guidelines The overall estimating approach to be used for the mid-year budget review is from the standpoint of " variance" from the 1982 budget. Focus should be directed to impacts that have occurred subsequent to preparation of the 1982 budget. For example:

o Impacts resulting from the extended construct Ln delay on WNP-4 and 5.

~

o Changes authorized through Change Management act an. These would not impact the bottom line of the budget, but would involve t qnsfers from contingency to other budget line items (or vice versa).

o Impacts resulting from implementation of Amendment No.1 to " Policy Statement on Equitable Cost Sharing for Twin-Unit WPPSS Projects."

Such impacts are to be uniquely identified in the budget with actual costs incurred during the extended construction delay being recorded as

{

contingency assets or liabilities, as appropriate.

7

Nnvember 24 1981 0

Major estimating assumptions to be used are as follows:

i o For the purpose of estimating WNP-1 and 3 cost that would shift to the twin units (4/5) if restarted, assume that the construction restart notification will be given on July 1, 1983 for WNP-4 and 5 without any advance notice.

o Cost-sharing allocations will be made as specified in the Amendment No. I to " Equitable Cost Sharing for Twin-Unit WPPSS Projects."

o Assumptions for inflation are to remain the same as those used in the 1982 budget.

The 1982 budget will continue to be the baseline for performance measurement on WNP-1, 2 and 3.

The revised estimate and related cash flows for fiscal years 1982 and 1983 for WNP-4 and 5 will become the new baseline for these projects.

3.0 LICENSE MAINTENANCE

3.1 DESCRIPTION

OF LICENSES 3.1.1 License Requirements The Supply System currently possesses NRC construction permits for both WNP-4 and WNP-5. NRC regulations do not require that any phase of construction of a total project be completed on a specific schedule.

The only requirement relating to construction schedule is that construction be completed by the latest completion date specified in the construction permit.

The latest completion date may be extended by the NRC for " good cause."

(42 USC, 2235; 10CFR50.55) 3.1.2 License Extensions

{

It has been common for NRC licensees to seek construction permit amendments to extend latest completion dates.

Such amendments are usually granted routinely.

" Good cause" for such amendments can be demonstrated by factors beyond the licensee's control such as labor difficulties, changing regulatory requirements, and adverse economic conditions.

3.1.3 WNP-4/5 License Status A request to extend the latest completion date on the WNP-4 pennit to June 1, 1987, was submitted recently to the NRC.

Under NRC Regulations, the construction pennit will remain in effect pending NRC action on the request (10CFR2.109).

The latest completion date specified in the WNP-5 permit is July 1, 1986.

t 9

l 1

{

y October 14, 1981 3.1.4 WNP-4/5 License Extensions While the NRC Staff has the authority to require licensees to "show cause" why permits should not be modified, suspended or revoked in view of significant new information (see 10CFR2.202), -the issuance of a "show cause" order solely because construction on WNP-4 and WNP-5 is interrupted is considered to be unlikely, particularly in view of the state of completion of the projects and the likelihood of eventual. resumption of construction and project completion.

Based on precedents where other utilities have deferred construction (e.g.,

Duke Power deferral of Cherokee Unit 1, 2 and 3), it is expected that the NRC Staff will view the information regarding a deferral of construction on WNP-4 and WNP-5 primarily as it relates to their own resource needs and review priorities.

3.1.5 NRC Overview of Delay The NRC Inspection and Enforcement staff will have a most direct interest in j

the plans for, and activities associated with, preservation of the facility records and hardware.

It will be important to consider their concerns when formulating our plans for deferral of WNP-4 and WNP-5 construction and to keep them closely informed of our activities.

3.1.6 Site certification Agreements The " licenses" issued by the Washington Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council (EFSEC), known as the Site Certification Agreements, do not specify dates for completion of construction.

Consequently, many of the points and activities discussed above vis-a-vis the NRC are not applicable. However, in early October, EFSEC did express an interest in a full briefing on the impact I

of the decision to defer WNP-4 and WNP-5 with an eye to possibly changing the 10

, ~.

a

)

October 14, 1981 I

various permits and licenses issued by the State or to changing EFSEC-required programs and activities.

Changes anticipated would make permits and activities more reflective of reduced construction / operation activities and of the possibly extended construction period.

During October, Supply System staff will be analyzing the pertinent permits and programs to form the basis for Supply System proposals for appropriate changes or reductions.

3.2 ACTION PLAN FOR PRESERVING THE WNP-4/5 LICENSES 3.2.1 Notifications Informal notification of NRC management and staff was accomplished almost intnediately upon completion of the Governors' Panel Report.

Mr.

R.H.

Engelken, Director of NRC Inspection & Enforcement, Region V, was informed by Mr.

R.L.

Ferguson, Supply System Managing Director, in a meeting on

^

September 17, 1981.

Mr.

Harold

Denton, Director of Nuclear Reactor Requlations (NRR), was informed by Dr. G.D. Bouchey, Deputy Director of Safety

(

& Security, in a meeting on September 24, 1981.

In addition, various NRC inspectors have been informed of the situation at WNP-4 and WNP-5 on a continuous basis.

Formal notification of both the NRC Staff (Bethesda) and Inspection and Enforcement (Region V) of the Supply System action regarding deferral of WNP-4 and WNP-5 construction was accomplished ~oy a letter to the Director, NRR, with copy distribution to the Director of Inspection and Enforcement, Region V.

No other formal submittals are considered necessary et this time to maintain the WNP-4 and WNP-5 construction permits or to satisfy normal practices of keeping the NRC informed of significant activities.

The EFSEC was notified of the construction interruption by a letter dated October 5, 1981.

November 6, 1981 3.2.2 Licensing Acclications Our current plan is to file applications for operating licenses for WNP-1/4 in December 1981 and for WNP-3/5 in April 1982. In reviewing these plans in view of the WNP-4/5 deferral, it is concluded that the operating licensa applications in both cases should be submitted as originally planned.

This approach conserves manpower resources for both the Supply System and the NRC, results in no added cost for the WNP-4/5 Projects, and minimizes the necessity for public hearing on Projects 4 and 5 if construction is resumed and the plants are completed.

There is no filing fee for the operating licenses applications; thus, this action would represent no additional cost to WNP-4/5.

A final consideration is whether or not to request a further extension of the latest completion date on the pending WNP-4 construction permit or on the

{

WNP-5 construction permit. The pending WNP-4 amendment application requests a latest completion date of June 1,1987.

It has been concluded that the NRC should be allowed to process the pending application as submitted. After the construction delay period, the need for another extension of the latest completion date will be re-evaluated.

Similarly, no action is considered necessary at this time to extend the latest completion date for WNP-5.

This matter will be addressed at a later date.

3.2.3 Required Action i

A list of specific required actions is given in Section 9.2.

y i

October 14, 1981 4.0 ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS Engineering guidance on activities to be conducted for the preservation of the assets in WNP-4/5 is provided in this section. Final determinations are to be made by the Program Directors in consultation with the Technical Director.

Engineering planning and considerations for entering an extended construction delay range from complete preservation and completion of all necessary functions to simply walking off and leaving the work as is.

The degree of preservation work is primarily a function of economics at the time of implementation.

As a minimum, safety, code or quality requirements will in themselves demand a certain level of preservation activity.

Using economics as a basis, four classes of equipment / materials / structures can be defined:

o that which will be preserved at all costs o that which will receive minimal attention and is assumed.at a risk to be suitable for service later o that which can be sold or used elsewhere o that which is simply left as is.

The equipment / structure / materials that are encompassed by each of these classes can only be determined by an item by item evaluation by technically knowledgeable persons, with final decisions made by the Ofrectors responsible for managing the extended construction delay within a defined funding level.

4.1 EQUIPMENT TO BE PRESERVED AT ALL COSTS For that equipment / material / structures required to be preserved, the following considerations must be evaluated:

o Preservation and storage should be in accordance with manufacturer's recomendations, applicable design requirements and/or ANSI N45.2.2.

f 13

s w.

I October 14, 1981 o Complete surveillance and record keeping functions must be maintained throughout the mothballing period.

The condition of the equipment must periodically be verified and all protective measures maintained intact.

All records including drawings, purchasing / manufacturing documents, code o

data reports or partial code data reports, qualification documentation, construction deficiency reports and any other applicable documents must be completed to the extent possible, and must be properly filed with the responsible party, Construction drawing revisions, ctupleted engineering directives and an o

accurate status reccrd of work completed must be identified and filed with the responsible party, o Concrete coating systems that are partially installed should be considered for completion.

4 o Unit 5 exposed rebar and structural steel which must be preserved should be sandblasted and coated with two coats of zinc-rich paint. Loose rebar should be stored in laydown area under cover. Unit 4 exposed rebar and structural steel should be left as is with sandblasting prior to usage, if required.

If more economic than sandblasting and coating, concrete encasement should be completed.

4.2 MINIMUM ATTENTION WITH RISK For equipment / material / structures determined to require minimum attention, the following considerations must be evaluated:

o Preservation and storage should be in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations, applicable design requirements, and/or ANSI N45.2.2.

However, these requirements may be modified based on the degree of exposure for a particular piece of equipment.

[

14 e

6 October 14, 1981 Minimal surveillance should be established to assure protective measures

+

o remain adequate, i.e., heaters operable, covers intact, etc.

All records, including drawings, purchasing / manufacturing documents, code o

data reports or partial code data reports, qualification documentation and any other applicable documents must be completed to the extent possible and filed with the responsible party.

o Construction drawings, revisions and completed engineering directives should be identified and filed with the responsible party when practical.

4.3 AlikRNATE USAGE When cost effective, an attempt should be made to sell, trade or use the excess material / equipment in accordance with appropriate business practices.

Engineering should identify those items which may be disposed of.

(

4.4 LEFT AS IS Those items identified as more costly to maintain for the mothballing period than to replace should receive no attention. Those items that cannot be used elsewhere and have a specified shelf-life of insufficient length to warrant preservation, should receive no attention.

Alternatively, items in this category might be sold as scrap.

4.5 ECONOMIC CONSIDERATION Preservation of certain specialty, nonsafety-related items should be given j

close consideration. Examples of high-dollar specialty items are the turbine and generator.

O

)

October 14, 1981 4.6 REQUIRED ACTION The Program Directors, in consultation with the Technical Director, shall define all equipment / structures / materials to be preserved given the economic considerations discussed in this ' plan.

These items are to be identified by October 23 so that specific commercial direction may be given to appropriate construction contractors and equipment vendors.

Nanconformances relating to hardware, structures, and documentation should be dispositioned and verified.

(If nonconformances can be closed out at the contractors expense, they should be closed out.)

At a minimum, unresolved nonconformances should be recorded and their status noted for future action.

October 27, 1981 5.0 QUALITY CONSIDERATIONS Planning for the WNP-4/5 extended construction delay must address Quality Assurance program considerations that are necessary to preserve licenses and permits and to protect plant equipment and facilities so as not to preclude a resumption of construction after the delay.

5.1 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS The regolatory rsquirements that must be met to preserve the assets in Projects 4 and 5 are given in the following subsections.

5.1.1 Quality Assurance Program The Design and Construction Quality Assurance Program must be continued and modified as necessary to cover the extended construction delay.

5.1.2 Preservation and Storage Requirements As discussed in Section 4, Engineering Considerations, equipment received and in storage should be maintained in accordance with manufacturer's reconnendations and/or applicable design requirements and standards, or approved alternatives.

Implementation of the preventive maintenance program shall be verified by Quality Assurance through site surveillances.

l 5.1.3 Procedures / Instructions Surveillance procedures shall be required to verify that the quality of materials, components and structures (including partially completed structures) will be adequately preserved during the period of suspended construction.

-e 17

i October 14, 1981 5.1.4 Records Documentation for work performed, including maintenance and qualification records, must be reviewed, accepted, maintained, and stored in a permanent record storage facility to which the Supply System has assured access.

The status of construction tests and inspections performed prior to suspensi3n of work must also be documented, reviewed and stored in a permanent retords facility accessible by the Owner.

5.1.5 Americ{n Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)

Contractors who have performed but not completed ASME Code work should prepare a partial da.a report ud have it signed by their Authorized Nuclear Inspector.

The report shcu d describe exactly what work has been performed.

i Also, all quality assurancq @ cumentation should be turned over for review and

(

acceptar.ce prior to contrsO demobilization.

Preservation and storage retairements should be established and implemented for ASPE material being stored. Also, materials / items being stored should be well identified with identification tags that will withstand the environmental conditions where placed.

5.2 REQUIRED ACTION The WNP-4/5 Program Director.s are responsible for developing the specific implementation plan to meet these requirements.

These plans are to be defined, documented and a copy provided to Corporate Quality Assurance by October.10,1981, in order to meet the comitment to brief the NRC on November 18, 1981.

o Engineering / Design records are in Ebasco custody.

QA Class I construction records are in Ebasco and contractor custody.

o Class II and G construction records are in contractor custody.

o o QA Class I equipment vendor records are in Ebasco and prepurchased equipment contractor custody.

Class II and G equipment vendor records are in contractor custody.

o o Supply System contractors' records are in Supply System custody (fuel racks, secur.ity system, simulator, spare parts, etc.).

t o Supply System-generated records are in Supply System custody.

6.3 RECORDS REQUIRE?ENTS In order to preserve the assets of the projects, all records must be retained as described in the following Subsections.

6.3.1 Architect / Engineer and Construction Manager The AE and/or CM shall retain all quality records currently in his custody, and should obtain custody of those quality records in the custody of the contractors. The guiding philosophy shall be that the AE or CM have custody of the records rather than the contractor.

20 f.

m

L

\\

October 14, 1981 6.3.2 Supply System The Supply System should retain all quality records currently in our custody for those contracts administered within the Supply System (e.g., fuel racks, security system, etc.).

In addition, the Supply System should obtain custody of those quality records that pertain solely to WNP-4/5 for contracts administered by the Supply System.

6.3.3 Contractors As discussed above, most contractors should present their records to the AE or CM as determined by the Program Director.

However, for selected contractors (for example, the NSSS contractor) where the contractor has not yet turned over quality records to the AE/CM or the Supply System, the Program Director may elect to leave those records in the custody of the contractor.

In this case, the contractor shall provide a list of those records required to support his work and shall describe how and where the records will be stored.

The Supply System will verify the adequacy of those records by audit / surveillance.

6.3.4 All Other Records All other records not currently in the possession of the AE/CM/ Supply System that can be obtained at no additional cost should be obtained. Other records should be obtained only for components that are not accessible due to construction (e.g., embeded piping, underground piping or electrical work, j

etc.). In this case, marked-up drawings and recort?. are adequate.

6.4 RECORDS GENERATED DURING CONSTRUCTION DELAY Records generated during the extended construction delay should be retained as follows:

o Preventive maintenance records shall be retained by the organization responsible for the maintenance.

f 21

October 27, 1981 7.0 COPHERCIAL ACTIONS 7.1 GENERAL The guidance and requirements specified in this section are necessary to ensure proper overall planning, support budget fonnulation and cash flow forecasting and control. The total effort will require some time to complete.

However, it is emphasized that the 4/5 Program Directors and the Director of Business Programs are to implement imediately those contractual actions that reduce the continuing conunitment of funds to a minimum. Attention should be given to the largest dollar impacts.

7.2 SPECIFIC ACTIONS 7.2.1 Prepurchase The Projects are to suspend aU WNP-4/5 work on all contracts except for these 4

contracts where the Project is reasonably certain that such suspension will result in greater near-term costs than continuance of work.

The WNP-4/5 Program Directors and Director of Business Programs shall review all contracts and develop their initial plan for resolving each contract by October 28, 1981. A copy of this plan will be provided to the task force.

Data shall reflect the following:

o Priority listing of contracts based on estimate of potential costs.

Inamediate evaluations are to be conducted on large dollar-value exposure contracts.

The Program Directors and Director of Business Programs shall prepare individual contract negotiation plans as required to support their commercial action plan'.

Based on these negotiation plans, the projected cost / cash flow should be reviewed and adjusted. An overall negotiation schedule should also be prepared, based on the priorities established above, by November 13, 1981.

Negotiations should begin in accordance with this schedule.

Upon completion of individual negotiations, tt;e cost / cash flow projects should be adjusted, if necessary, and the task force should be advised of any changes.

Necessary contractual documents should be executed in accordance with established commercial procedures.

o October 14, 1981 7.2.2 Construction The action plans for construction are the same as for prepurchase, recognizing that some of the actions have already taken place.

7.2.3 Headquarters Contracting Activities Service and prepurchase contracts that support, or are funded by WNP-4/5, and are managed by Headquarters will be given the same scrutiny and reports provided thereon as in the case of prepurchase contracts.

This will be accomplished by the Director of Business Programs who will coordinate actions with the others for whom the contracting services are being provided.

7.3 NUCLEAR FUEL The nuclear fuel contracts are under the technical control of the Technical Director. The following actions are to be taken.

I 7.3.1 NSSS/ Fuel Initial core fuel is to be handled in the same manner as the NSSS portion of the contract.

7.3.2 Gardinier The contract with Gardinier is to be terminated. Termination costs are to be appropriately allocated between WNP-1, 4 and 5.

7.3.3 Western Nuclear Current plans are to purchase contractual comitments of uranium under the contract and inenediately resell at the then-current market price.

7.3.5 Kerr-McGee UF Conversion Contract 4

This contract involves conversion of UF supplied by Gardinier to UF

  • 4 6

Termination of the Gardinier contract eliminates the need for this contract and it is therefore to be terminated.

7.3.6 Kerr-McGee U 3, Conversion Contract No cash flow is expected to be incurred by WNP-4/5 over the 2-year period.

Therefore, no action is to be taken.

7.3.7 Reporting Responsibilities The Technical Director will continue close coordination of actions with the Managing Director and will advise the task force of any changes to plans and will provide reports as required.

7.4 ASSUPPTIONS For purposes of negotiations, the period of construction delay will end o

on July 1, 1983.

Courses of action (i.e., termination, suspension, partial suspension and o

8.0 PROGRAMMATIC ACTIONS The Supply System is committed to becoming an efficient organization designed to build three nuclear plants as opposed to five. This will require a number of programmatic actions including streamlining organizations and improving the overall manual-to-nonmanual ratios on the projects.

Several management initiatives have been implemented in recent weeks. The Program Directors are also to continue to pursue similar actions with respect to architect engineers, the construction managers and the construction contractors. These types of management initiatives must be implemented to minimize the impact of the extended construction delay on Projects 1 and 3.

In the same sense, all ncngenerating facilities and other activities conducted by the Supply System not directly supporting the construction of Projects 1 and 3 should be evaluated for deferral, suspension, or elimination.

Examples of such activities would be further work on improvement of roads and interchanges, office space, temporary construction facilities, temporary construction utilities, etc. The appropriate Directors are to provide a brief listing of their intended further programmatic actions and timetables to the task force by October 30.

October 14, 1981 10.0 MANAGEMENT OF THE EXTENDED CONSTRUCTION DELAY The principles for management of the construction delay are presented in Section 1.5 and will be based primarily on implementation by line management with assistance and support by the task force.

10.1 LINE MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES Management of the extended construction delay is the direct responsibility of the line managers of the Supply System. Each Director will be responsible for accomplishing those activities within his area of responsibility on the defined schedule and within budget.

The integrity of the overall financial baseline defined in Section 2.0 must be maintained and is the collective responsibility of every director.

10.2 TASK FORCE RESPONSIBILITIES

[

The task force is to provide assistance to line management in developing and implementing actions and is to provide a consolidated performance evaluation.

The task force will report to the Deputy Managing Director on all matters related to the extended construction delay.

The functions of the task force will be as follows:

develop and publish a consolidated Monthly Performance Report o

analyze impact of external influences on the ability to perforni against o

the defined baseline l

l o identify any requirements or additional initiatives for executing the delay that may have been overlooked 1

assist the Managing Director / Deputy in review of program actions against o

the plan 33 i

d

)

October 14, 1981 t

assist line management where and when necessary in the implementation of o

the extended construction delay review the experience of other nuclear utilities in extended delays on o

their plants review Supply System performance on accomplishing required tasks o

o review total expenditures versus baseline and funds availability to identify possible variance trends or overruns o identify and analyze potential areas for further savings o update this plan as necessary.

10.3 REPORTING GUIDELINES i

10.3.1 Rolling Cash Flow Reports The Supply System is using a 12-week rolling cash flow forecast and variance reporting system to monitor cash flow during the construction delay.

The 12-week rolling cash flow report will replace the current 8-week rolling cash flow report beginning November 2,1981.

The following infomation is to be j

provided weekly through June 30, 1983:

o updated 12-week forecast o explanations and reasons for variance of actuals i

explanations and reasons of forecast revisions for the comon periods for o

both past forecast and the approved budget baseline; these variance and l

34 l

I e

I I

October 14, 1981 l

revision explanations will address, at the minimum, whether the reason for the variances or revisions were due to a bad estimate, incorrect timing (if the variance is due to incorrect timing, a revised estimate of when the payment will occur and why should be included), or an omission.

This information is to be submitted each Monday by 4:00 p.m.

beginning November 2,1981, to J. J. Read, Manager, Project Budgets.

Project Budgets will consolidate all data, provide sumary analysis and report results by the following day.

A sample of an 8-week forecast is given in Table 4 and a sample of a construction fund cash summary report is shown in Table 5.

10.3.3 Responsib'ilities Required forecast inputs and related responsibilities are as follows:

INTRODUCTION This is the corporate criteria for preparation, review and approval of the FY-1982 and 1983 baseline budget for WNP-4 and 5.

The baseline budget for each of the two nuclear power plant mothballing cost will be prepared in two phases. Phase I will cover the time frame from July 1. 1981 through December 31, 1981. Phase II will cover from January 1, 1982 through June 30, 1983.

This document is the instruction for both Phase I and Phase II and includes general guidelines for the following major segments of the budget:

o Prepurchased Equipment Contracts e Construction Contracts e Architect-Engineer Services e Construction Management Services e Administrative and General Costs e Owner Construction Cost e Nuclear Fuel Contracts e Reinvestment Income

(

II. OBJECTIVE An accurate assessment of the projects' forecasted cost during the period of July 1,1981 through June 30, 1983. These projected costs will be the baseline budget against which cost will be tracked and monitored in accordance with the " Tracking Plan for Monitoring Motaballing Cost Against Budget Baseline". It will also be the basis for cash planning to assure funding availability by the participating parties.
