RANCHO SECO QUALITY MANUAL ATTACHMENT 2.2 Page 7 of 16 Rev. I EXCEPTIONS EXCEPTION NO. 1: Reg.. Guide 1.28/NQA-1, Supplement 17S-1 SMUD complies with the recommendations of this regulatory guide with the following clarifications:

With regard to Section 2.4 of Supplement 175-1 titled Index: The phrase a

an index" is clarified to mean a collection of documents or indices which, when taken together, supply the information attributed to "an index" in the standard.

The specific location of a record "within a storage area" may not be delineated (e.g. The specific location within a computer record file may not be constant. Further, SMUD may utilize a computer assisted random access filing system where such location could not be readily

" documented " or would such a location be."relavent.") The storage location will be delineated, but where file locations change with time, the specific location of a record within that file may not always be documented.

With regard to Section 4.3, Supplement 17S-1 titled Safekeeping:

Routine general office and nuclear site security systems and access controls are provided: No special security systems are required to be established for record storage areas.

With regard to Section 4.4, Supplement 175-1, titled Facility: This Section provides no distinction between temporary and permanent facilities. To cover temporary storage, the following clarification is added: " Active records (those completed but not yet duplicated or placed on microfilm) may be temporarily stored in one-hour fire rated file cabinets. In general, records shall not be maintained in such

. temporary storage for more than three months after completion without being duplicated (for dual storage) or being placed on microform.

Open-ended documents those revised or updated on a more-or-less continuing basis over an extended period of time (e.g. personnel qualification and training documents, equipment history cards, master 8 cumulative in nature (e.g. nonconforming item logs and control room. log books) shall become QA records: when they.are issued as a specific revision (e.g. the master audit schedule); when they are filled-up or

' discontinued (e.g log books or equipment history cards); on a predefined periodic basis when the completed portion of the on-going document shall be transferred to document control as a " record" (e.g. training and qualification records).

Section 1.4 Definitions in this standard which are not included in ANSI N45.2.10 shall be used; all definitions which are included in ANSI N45.2.10 shall be used as clarified in SMUD commitment to Regulatory Guide 1.74.

Section 2.1 Planning requirements, as determined by engineering, shall be incorporated into modification procedures.

Section 2.3 Procedures and Instructions shall be implemented as set forth in Sections II, III, V, X and XI of this program and by compliance with the Rancho Seco Plant Technical Specifications and Regulatory Guide 1.33 (ANSI N18.7).

Section 2.4 Results will be implemented as set forth in Sections X, XI, and XVII of this program and by compliance with ANSI '

N18.7 as set forth in this table in lieu of the requirements set forth here.

Section 2.5.2 Calibration and Control covers three classes of instrumentation used by SMUD: (1) M&TE (portable measuring instruments, test equipment, tools, gages, and non-destructive test equipment used in measuring and inspecting safety-related structures, systems, and components); (2) reference standards (primary, secondary, transfer, and working); and (3) permanently installed process instrumentation (PI).

~ ~

With respect to the first sentence, M&TE and reference standards shall be included in calibration program and shall either be calibrated at prescribed intervals or shall be calibrated prior to use. With respect to the last sentence, personnel shall be trained and procedures shall require that the calibration sticker shall be l

reviewed to determine calibration status prior to use:

This label shall be considered to clearly identify equipment which is out of calibration. Lack of a sticker shall require record review and affixing a new sticker based on calibration data. M&TE and reference standards shall comply with sentences 2, 3 and 4.

, ATTACHMENT 2.2 Page 9 of 16 Rev. 1 EXCEPTIONS With respect to the third sentence, SMUD uniquely identifies each safety-related component of permanently installed process instrumentation. This- identification provides traceability to calibration data. These actions are SMUD's alternative to the tagging or labeling of items to indicate the calibration date and the identity of the person who performed the calibration. Permanently installed process instrumentation shall comply with sentences 1, 2, and 5.

Section 3 Preconstruction Verification will be implemented as follows: (1) is required only for modifications, (2) no special checks are required to be made by the person withdrawing a replacement part from the warehouse -

equivalent controls are assured by compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.38 (ANSI N45.2.2) as set forth in this table, and, (3) shall be complied with as determined by engineering, by individual technicians as part of the modification process.

Section 5.1 Inspections, including subsections 5.1.1, 5.1.2, and 5.1.3, will be implemented as set forth in Section X of this program. The inspection program will incorporate, as determined by engineering and Quality those items listed in these subsections.

Section 5.2 Tests, including subsections 5.2.1 through 5.2.3, will be implemented as set forth in Sections III and XI of this program. In some cases Surveillance testing may be used to meet the appropriate requirements of this section.

Section 6 Post-Construction Verification is not generally considered applicable at operating facilities because of the scope of the work ar.d the relatively short interval between installation and operation. Where considered necessary by engineering and Quality, the elements described in this Section will be used in the development and implementation of inspection and testing programs as describe in Sections III, X, and XI of this program.

Section 7 Data Analysis and Evaluation will be implemented as i stated herein af ter adding the clarifying phrase "Where used" at the beginning of that paragraph.

SMUD reserves the right to define additional words or phrases which are not included in this Standard. Such additional definitions will be documented in appropriate procedures.

, In addition to the Standard's definition of " Inspection," SMUD will use the following: " Inspection (when used to refer to activities that are NOT performed by QC personnel) - Examining, viewing closely, scrutinizing, looking over or otherwise checking activities. Personnel pm ivi .. u .... functions are not necessarily certified to Regulatory Guide 1.58 (ANSI N45.2.6)."

When SMUD intends for Inspection to be performed in accordance with the QA Program by personnel certified as required by that program and for activities defined by " inspection" in ANSI N45.2.10, appropriate references to the plant QC organization or the procedures to be used for performing the activity will be made. If such references are NOT made, inspections are to be considered under the additional definition given above.

" Independent Verification": - Verification by an individual other than the person who performed the operation or activity being verified that required actions have been completed. Such verification will not require confirmation of the identical action when other indications provide assurance or indication that the prescribed activity is in fact complete. Examples include, but are not limited to: Verification of a breaker opening by observed remote breaker indication lights; verification of a set point (made with a voltmeter or ammeter for example) by observing the actuation of status or indicating lights at the required panel-meter indicated value; verification that a valve has been positioned by observing the starting or stopping of flow on meter indications or by remote valve positions indicating lights.

"Will" - (Not defined in any ANSI Standard) - Means the same as "shall" except when used to denote simple futurity. When used to denote futurity, "will" is normally followed by "be".
