SUBJECT:

APPROVAL OF PROPOSED REVISIONS TO THE BEAVER VALLEY POVvER STATION, UNIT NOS.1 AND 2, QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM DESCRIPTION (TAC NOS. MA4521 AND MA4522)

Dear Mr. Cross:

By letter dated December 24,1998, Duquesne Light Company (DLC) submitted a request for approval of a proposed change in the Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit Nos.1 and 2 (BVPS-1 and BVPS-2) Quality Assurance (QA) Program described in Chapter 17.2 of the BVPS-2 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). The BVPS-1 and BVPS-2 QA Program description is applicable to both units and is contained in the BVPS-2 UFSAR. Specifically, DLC proposed that the procurement document review function for materials and equipment be transferred from the Quality Services Unit (OSU) to the line organization (Nuclear Procurement Department). QSU personnel would remain responsible for reviewing purchasing documents related to services. This change was submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3) as a change that reduced commitments in the BVPS-1 and BVPS-2 QA Program description previously approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

The NRC staff has reviewed the proposed change to the QA Program description and has concluded that the proposed change will continue to satisfy the requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and is, therefore, acceptable. The enclosed safety evaluation documents the bases for our conclusion that the proposed change to the QA Program description is acceptable.

Please contact rne at 301-415-1427 if you have any questions regarding this issue.
