' Revision: 3 1.0 PURPOSE This' procedure establishes the methods to investigate' sets of Out-of-Scope Observations and/or' deviations and 'wh6re pos'sible, detect any.. adverse trends.

Moreover,1this procedure establishes the methods-.to ensure that' all deficiencies,-including adverse trends, unclassified-d'eviations,.and unclassified. trends'are investiga'ted for root / contributing cause(s) and'the generic implications of the.

identified cause(s) considered.

Finally, this procedure.'addhesses the methods to conduct additional reinspection / documentation reviews.as required,.

2.0 APPLICABILITY This procedure is applicable to purchased.saflety-r' elated equipmen't and material as well as safety-related. hardware constructed'ati Comanche Peak Steam Electric' Station,' Units..!1, 2, and areas' common to both' units and the' associated QA/QC program.

4.0 GENERAL Sets of Out-of-Scope Observations and/or deviations,. prepared in accordance with References 3.I and 3.2 respectively, are investigated to identify any adverse trends. Furthermore, each reported deficiency, including. unclassified' trends, adverse trends, and unclassified deviations is' investigated _to determine'its root / contributing cause(s).

' contained in design drawings and specifications or installation procedures / requirements.

b.

Any identified discrepancy, discovered during document review for inaccessible or non-recreatable items or attributes, which is related to-documentation of construction or installation of safety-related hardware that has been determined to constitute a verified failure to document the construction or installation of a safety-related structure,' system or component in accordance with safety-significant attributes and criteria i

4.4.8 Unclassified Deviation and Unclassified Trend-~

A deviation, or set of' deviations, or trend which, without any safety-significant considerations.with' respect to the. deviation, or. adverse trend analysis with respect to the trend, warrants a root / contributing-cause(s) investigation, generic impl1 cations analysis-LI of the identified cause(s), and specification of.

corrective actions. Should"such a' determination;be made, performing a safety significance evaluation on the unclassified deviation (s). 'or an adverse ' trend analysis-of the unclassified trend would serve no purpose and shall not be accomplished.

5.0 PROCEDURE 5.1 Adverse Trend Analysis i

I Sets of Out-of-Scope Observations and/or deviations are g

reviewed to identify any adverse trends.

-J 5.1.1 Analysis The QA/QC Issue Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer 1

reviews sets of Out-of-Scope Observations and/or devintions to identify those unacceptable characteristics which appear to be repetitive :and which

~

may cause a deficiency in that, or another area, 1

population, or stratum.

For example, a hypothetical trend of significantly undersized welds, although-determined not to constitute a deficiency for the i

sample evaluated, may have the potential to be a

-deficiency in another area, population, or stratum.

Accordingly, the QA/QC Issue Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer prepares an Adverse Trend Analysis

in accordance with Attachment 6.1 or, documents the analysis in the Results Report.

j NOTE: An Adverse Trend Analysis may be prepared at 4

any time an unacceptable characteristic as

'J described above is apparent.

Should the Coordinator / Lead conclude-that there is an adverse trend, an investigation is:made as to its root / contributing cause(s) and the' generic implication of any identified cause(s).

5

___ L

CPP-011 Revision: 3 5.2 Root Cause(s) and Generic Implication Analyses (s)

Upon the identification of a deficiency, including an unclassified trend, an adverse trend, or an unclassified I

deviation, the QA/QC Issue Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer performs a review to determine its root / contributing cause(s) and, where possible, to identify any areas, populations, or stratums that are susceptible to the same condition. Reference 3.3 and Attachment 6.2 may be used as guides to identify common root causes.

However, the QA/QC Issue Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer should postulate any additional root / contributing causes that are appropriate.

5.2.1 Analysis Based upon the causes(s) of the problem the QA/QC Issue Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer determines its generic implications in any other areas, populations, or stratums that are susceptible to the same condition.

For example, there may be evidence.which links a deficiency to inadequate inspection.

That is, one or more inspectors may have accepted welds that were subsequently determined to be significantly undersized.

Therefore, it can be deduced that the same inspector (s) may have accepted welds in other areas, populations, er stratums that exhibit the same unacceptable f')

characteristic.

U The QA/QC Issue Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer

)

ensures that the result of the root / contributing cause(s) and any generic implication analysis is documenced in accordance with Attachment 6.3 or in the Results Report.

5.3 Sample Expansion Should a deficiency be reported, or an unclassified trend, an adverse trend, or an unclassified deviation, be identified, additional reinspection / reviews of any deficient and suspect areas, populations, or stratums are. conducted, as required, and the results evaluated. (See Reference 3.4.)

The QA/QC Issv.e Coordinator / Lead Discipline Engineer consults with the CPRT engineering statistics advisor to determine the expanded sample size, area, population, etc., then submits the sample expansion plan for review and approval in accordance with Section 5.4.

NOTE:

Sample Expansion Plans shall indicate the signature concurrence of the CPRT engineering statistics advisor.

Section 5.5.

Adverse trend analyses and generic implications analyses documented in appendices to Results Reports are distributed and. controlled by the CPRT Senior Review Team.

5.4.1 Programmatic Issues or Engineering Manager The responsible manager reviews analyses / plans to ensure that they are logical, technically correct, supported adequately by the referenced documentation, j

and that there are reasonable justifications for the stated conclusion and any recommended actions.

5.4.2 QA/QC Review Team Leader The RTL reviews analyses / plans approved by the responsible manager to ensure that they are consistent with the policies and intent of the CPRT.

'~h 5.5 Distribution and Control

[V The QA/QC Records Administrator transmits copies of approved Adverse Trend Analysis and Root Cause 'and Generic Implication l

Analysis forms to the CPSES QC Coordinator for'further processing.

The QA/QC Records Administrator documents transmittals of approved Adverse Trend Analysis and Root Cause and Generic Implication Analysis forms on uniquely numbered memorandums which include provision for the CPSES QC Coordinator to acknowledge receipt. In addition, the QA/QC Records i

l Administrator maintains records to ensure that the CPSES QC l

Coordinator is in receipt of the analyses, e.g.,

a file of transmittals forwarded to and received from the CPSES QC Coordinator.

Coordinator is also sent to the:
