VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY NORTH ANNA POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-338/88-16 AND 50-339/88-16 SUPPLENENTAL RESPONSE In our October 17, 1988 supplemental response to the Notice of Violation from Inspection Report Nos. 50-338/88-16 and 50-339/88-16 we indicated that we would provide Mditional information and status on the enhancements to the Operating Experience Review (0ER) program for the North Anna Power Station.
The North Anna OER program ensures that our documents and industry documents are reviewed for possible impact and corrective actions evaluated and implemented to prevent similar events from occurring.
The following list of documents is the
- inimui set of operating experience dacuments which are reviewed:
NRC Information Notices INP0 Significant Operating Experience Reports (SOER)
INP0 Significant Event Reports (SER)
INP0 Operations and Maintenance Reminders (0&MR)
Surry and North Anna Licensee Event Reports (LER)
Surry and North Anna Human Performance Evaluation Syste.n (HPES) Reports North Anna Station Deviation Reports INP0 Network The Nuclear Operations Department (N00) Standard on OER has been revised to ensure increased corporate participation in the coordination and independent review of OER documents.
Procedures will be developed at both corporate and the station, by December 31, 1988, to implement the revised N00 Standard.
8011290o19 001116 gDR ADOCK 05000330
Initial screeni'ng of the OER document will be conducted to determine if the OER document is applicable to North Anna and/or Surry.
If the OER document is found not to be applicable, it will be closed.
If the OER document is found to be applicable, detailed recommendations and an action plan (as appropriate), will be developed and provided to the Assistant Station Manager (s) - Nuclear Safety and Licensing for review and approval.
Approved recommendations will then be assigned to the applicable department via the station Commitment Tracking System.
When the appropriate reviews and the corrective actions approved by station management have been completed, the corporate Independent Operating Experience Review group will perform an independent review to verify that corrective actions are complete and adequately documented before document closecut.
The status of each OER document will be maintained in a database common to t
North Anna, Surry, and Corporate.
This database will be utilized to generate status reports of the operating experience review results.
These status reports will be presented to management on a monthly basis to increase management awareness and allow identification of trends occurring in the i
program.
l assure the OER program is properly implemented, the Quality Assurance i
)
Department will perform a review of the OER program effectiveness at both the corporate and station level in 1989.
Currently, the Quality Assurance Department is reevaluating the implementation of selected SOER 3
recommendations.
Also, in an effort to further benefit from industry experience, we plan to visit other utilities with established OER programs and to continue our participation in industry workshops and meetings.
