SPECIAL PROGRAM REVISION NUMBER: 0 PAGE 6 0F 22 Design Criteria: From procedure EN DES-EP 3.01 (App. A, 5.m):

" Design Criteria are Engineering requirements which provide the basis for conceptual and detailed design. Design criteria are the basis for making design decisions, establishing design inputs, accomplishing design verification measures, and evaluating design changes. Design criteria include, interpret and amplify:

a. Design commitments in the Safety Analysis Reports (SARs) and other environmental and licensing documents.
b. Design requirements of applicable industry standards and Nuclear Regulatory Commission requirements."

Design Basis: Per TVA memorandum (App. A, 5.u) and SQEP-18 (App.A,b.p):

l' "A design basis (1) identifies and interprets generic upper tier design input documents which are applicable to a specific plant, (2) identifies and evokes commitments made by TVA in licensing documents, (3) defines the general design requirements for the plant as required to satisfy the plant safety analysis, and (4) establishes any other general design input which may be dictated by TVA policy."

.< Design Basis Document (DBD): Per TVA memorandum (App. A, 5.u) and SQEP-18:

"A DBD consists, as a minimum, of those general design criteria for site, plant, structures, and systems which constitute the upper tier plant-specific design input. It may also include those detailed design criteria, system descriptions, and design input drawings, discretionary engineering decisions and rationale, analysis results, and engineering parameters and associated margins for detailed design."

SPECIAL PROGRAM

- REVISION NUMBER: 0 PAGE 7 0F 22 Design Inpot: From ANSI N45.2.11, the definition of Design Input is:

"Those criteria parameters, bases, or other design requirements upon which detailed final design is based."

Design Output: From ANSI N45.2.ll, the definition of Design Output is:

" Documents such as drawings, specifications and other documents defining technical requirements of structures, systems and components as delineated in Section 4." (Section 4 describes Design Process requirements.)

Discussion:

a. Engineering procedures were reviewed regarding design g criteria development requirements.

IU Formal design criteria were not developed by TVA as of the late 1960s. General Design Criteria were, however, recognized and discussed in the Sequoyah PSAR (subsection 1.4), which was submitted to the NRC (AEC).on 10/15/68.

Design criteria procedures existed as early as January 1970 in TVA Division of Engineering Design (EN DES) Quality Assurance Procedure (QAP), SQN-QAP-III-1.1. The SQN QAP was superseded by EN DES-EP 3.01 in July 1974. The initial issue of EN DES-EP 3.01 endorsed ANSI N45.2. ll, however, TVA did

, not actually commit to comply until the 1976 issue of the SQN FSAR. EP 3.01 was superseded by OEP-06 in June 1985. OEP-06 was superseded by NEP-3.2 in July 1986.

SQN-QAP-III-1.1, EN DES-EP 3.01, OEP-06 and NEP-3.2 identify design criteria as design input. The specifics as to preparation are quite detailed, including requirements for preparation, review, approval, revision, and ample guidance in the form of attachments to the procedure. Therefore, from a procedural standpoint all of the essentials have been and are in place to eliminate vagueness and to ensure completeness and adequacy.

Based on discussion (App. A, 7.c) with Civil Engineering Branch (CEB) personnel regarding design criteria and

h. , inspection of available criteria, the criteria were complete, comprehensive, and current.

Discussion (App. A, 7.a) with Mechanical Engineering Branch 1 (MEB) personnel and observation of criteria available found -

i design criteria were being updated to support the DBVP.

Completeness and adequacy are being established throu design verification and interface review (squadcheck)gh the procedure, per NEP-5.2.

Discussion (App. A, 7.b) with the Electrical Engineering Branch (EEB) indicated that EEB, as an enhancement to the NEPs, has set up an internal program to address shortcomings in its design control process. This program, which adds detailed instructions relative to the procedures, is

( discussed in a memorandum (App. A, 5.z). Additional detail in Gilbert /Comonwealth Report 2614 (App. A, 5.t), relative to EEB, indicates that a more comprehensive effort is needed for the collection and distribution of design criteria.

Some specific adequacies and inadequacies relative to EEB criteria are discussed in Element Report 213.3.

criteria / design basis for an engineering evaluation.

In addition the Sequoyah Nuclear Performance Plan (App. A, 5.y) provides that the TVA Engineering Assurance (EA) organization vill monitor the implementation of the DBVP.

EA has monitored the DBVP and has ferreted out certain inadequacies in the design criteria reconciliation as evidenced by an Action Items tabulation originated by the EA Independent Oversight Review Team, (App. A, 5 bb). Items noted by EA are tracked to completion.

The NRC conducted special inspections of the DBVP (App. A, 5.cc and 5.dd), including the TVA EA Independent Oversight Team activities. From the latest NRC inspection

(App. A, 5.dd), the NRC team concluded that the preparations and approach for the program were in most cases in accordance

[ with the program plan, subject to some general comments.

!_ PAGE 9 0F 22 On four different occasions Impell was called on to make independent external audit finding evaluations of the DBVP Design Control Program. Impell reports (App. A, 5.hh, 5.11, 5.jj, and 5.kk) were reviewed for additional information pertinent to the issues. Impell report 86-162 (App. A, 5.hh) compares the findings of NRC Inspection Report 86-27 with TVA's actions outlined in the DBVP. Impell report 86-180 (App. A, 5.ii) compares findings of Gilbert / Commonwealth Reports G/C 2600 and 2614 with TVA's actions outlined in the DBVP. Impell report 86-197 (App. A, 5.jj) compares the

" Bender Report" (App. A, 5.11) and the INP0 Corporate Evaluation with the actions outlined in the DBVP. Impell report 86-233 (App. A, 5.kk) compares the findings of the OE review of unimplemented and partially implemented ECNs for selected systems with TVA's actions outlined in the DBVP.

The point is that controls are in operation which should ensure that the OBVP will establish complete, comprehensive, and adequate design criteria.

The DBVP establishes a data base containing the (04 commitments /requiraments to be initially incorporated into the design criteria. SQEP-18 is being revised (Rev. 2) to require that this data base will be turned over to the project and maintained current throughout the life of the plant. This will help to ensure that the Sequoyah design criteria will reflect the latest licensing commitments and other design requirements.

b. Design criteria are considered by TVA to be design input documents. Design input constitutes design requirements that

, govern the design of all structures, systems, and components. Design criteria are addressed under NEP-3.2.

NEP-3.2 states in Section 2.0, " Policy" that " Changes to design input will be evaluated and where appropriate will be reflected in revisions to other affected design input documents." EN DES-EP 3.01 and OEP-06 say essentially the same thing.

It would appear from the procedure and discussions with TVA personnel that changes to design criteria are made when justification for changes has been established. It is standard practice to make changes when changes are needed to correct a deficiency, or for other reasons, regardless of g when during the life of the SQN project they are found. For example:

The TVA SQN Generic Concern Task Force investigated concern IN-85-886-01. The results of the investigation were issued as report GCC-20-66, identified in Section 2 of this report.

The conclusion of the investigation relative to this issue stated, in part:

"This investigation verified that design / acceptance criteria are still

< being changed but it failed to

(#r, substantiate the implication that these id changes are unwarranted . . ."

c. NEP-3.2, Section 2.0, " Policy" states in part:

" Design criteria documents will be prepared for all designs and will identify the effective revision of all design inputs and the portions of each design input that are applicable to each design."

< The nonexistence of some design criteria was noted in discussions with personnel in EEB (App. A, 7.b) as well as in discussions at the SQN job.;ite (App. A, 7.d). The nonexistence of specific EE8 dssign criteria is discussed in Sequoyah Element Report 213.3.

In particular the design criteria for seismic hangers is scheduled to be issued for SQN by May 30, 1986. There was [ sic] identified ten other design criteria in various stages of preparation of SQN."

The Gilbert / Commonwealth report No. 2614 (App. A, 5.t) in subsection 3.1.1.3 "Previously Identified Issues," stated in part:

"The review team found that some documentation of original design bases was either not readily available 'or nonexistent."

It was also confirmed that corrective action to develop needed design criteria, where missing, is underway as z.s required to support SQN restart. The corrective action is

  • L% I As follow on to the DBVP and design basis document l development, a TVA EEB memorandum (App. A, 5.z) establishes a l program for improving the EEB design control process, which includes recognition of the procedural requirements relating to design criteria as well as the need to relate final design back to the source of design input.
d. Inactivation of design criteria was first addressed in EN DES-EP 3.01, revision 4,(11/19/80). The revision added

, - Section 10.0, " Inactivation of Design Criteria," with three subsection.s: 10.1 " Definition of Inactivated Design Criteria," 10.2 " Time of Inactivation," and 10.3 " Process of Inactivauon." Of particular note is subsection 10.2, which states that design criteria may be inactivated in the following situations:

b. If the entire system is replaced by a different system in the plant design.

NOTE The selection of the time of inactivation is at the discretion of the section supervisor responsible for the design criteria within the guidelines of a. and b.

above."

Revision 6 of EP 3.01, (05/22/84) changed this section to m read:

A .t

[O " Design criteria may be inactivated only when the entire subject system, structure, or component has been deleted from the plant design or permanently removed from operation at the plant site."

It is apparent that from 1980 to 1984 design criteria were permitted by procedure to be inactivated. This is consistent with the discussion at the Sequoyah jobsite noted below.

, NEP-3.2, Section 2.0, " Policy" states, in part:

" Design criteria documents may be inactivated only when the entire subject system, structure, or component has been deleted from the plant design or permanently removed from operation at the plant. Design requirements in the design criteria may be incorporated in a system description or design basis document (DBD).

" Exception to design criteria documents may be taken if they are technically justifiable and are documented in accordance with this procedure.

"A DB0 shall be prepared for each nuclear power plant. The DBD shall define, establish, and maintain the upper tier design documentation requirements for operating nuclear plants. The DBD and its subsequent revisions shall be subject to review for approval by the discipline branch chiefs as in NEP-5.2 and shall be controlled and maintained throughout the life of the plant."

0EP-06 states essentially the same policy as NEP-3.2, except it does not address the preparation of the 080.

In a discussion at the Sequoyah jobsite (App. A, 7.d) it was m indicated that design criteria were also inactivated when '

6, construction was completed and the system was put into "s operation. This practice was based on the rationale that all of the necessary information was contained in design output documents. The reason given for inactivating the design criteria was to cut down on surplus documentation, and retain only documentation needed to support the operating plant.

This statement confirms the discussion on page 178 of the transcript of NRC investigative interview (App. A, 5.w). As noted earlier there was a time between 1980 and 1984 when such inactivation was allowed by procedure.

< ' It is true that many design criteria were set up and then inactivated. However, Engineering has initiated restoration of these criteria through the D8VP. It will be necessary to update these criteria, however, before they can be reissued.

Inactivated design criteria are identified in the Sequoyah Design Criteria Manual Index. Thirty-two issued criteria were identified in the index as inactivated. All 32 were readily retrieved.

Engineering is aware of the necessity to have this design criteria, and has initiated its restoration and updating as part of the DBVP.

,. Monitoring implementation of the DBVP by EA should ensure adequacy and completeness of design criteria issued;

. maintaining comatitments/ requirements tracking throughout the L life of the Sequoyah plant and should ensure that criteria -

are maintained current.

Findings:

a. Procedural essentials exist for eliminating vagueness, for achieving completeness, and for assuring adequacy of design criteria.

Completeness and adequacy are being established through design verification and interface review. This situation should be mitigated for SQN through the DBVP when walkdown/ test data are compared to the licensing and the design basis criteria,

b. Design criteria are sometimes changed late in the project.

< Changes are made when necessary to correct deficiencies.

g4 Appropriate procedures are in place for making necessary C'm d!, changes.

c. The issue that some needed criteria did not exist was found to be true. Appropriate procedures are in place for generating such criteria.
d. It is true that some design criteria were set up and then inactivated. However, it was found that the inactivated criteria could easily be retrieved although they required update after retrieval.

[ Some design criteria documents were inactivated when construction was completed and the system was put into operation, using the rationale that all necessary information was contained in design output documents. This was allowed by EP-3.01 at the time.

The current procedure NEP 3.2 allows design criteria documents to be inactivated only when the entire subject system, structure, or component has been deleted from the l

plant or permanently removed from operation at the plant.

Design requirements in the design criteria may be j incorporated in a system description or design basis document.

Conclusions:

$ a. The issue that some design criteria were inadequate is Q valid. However, this issue should be resolved as programs 3 currently in place (i.e., DBVP & DBD) are fully implemented.

b. The issue-is valid in that some design criteria were changed 1 .

! .c. The issue is valid in that some needed design criteria did v not exist. However, full implementation of the DBVP should create design criteria where they are needed.

d. The issue is valid in that some design criteria were inactivated. The criteria can be retrieved and reactivated once they are reviewed and brought up to date in accordance with NEP procedures.
