2.0 QUALITY ASSURANCElROGRAM v 2.1 GENERAL REQ.UIREMENTS Northeast Utilities (NU) has established a Quality Assurance Program (NUQAP) which complies with the criteria of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, and follows the guidance referred to in Appendix D of this report. The quality assurance requirements set forth herein and the attached Policy Statement, supplemented by the Quality Assurance Procedures, provide the primary basis of the Program and the NU Policy with regard to quality assurance. This program is established for each plant site in a manner intended to accomplish the required level of quality and is carried out throughout the life of nuclear power plants. It includes quality activities during the operation, maintenance, testing, and modification of the in-service nuclear power plants. The requirements of the NUQAP apply, as a minimum, to nuclear safety-related systems, structures and components as functionally identified in Appendix A, " Systems, Structures and Components" and other items or services which are specifically identified in each FSAR addressing Section 3.2.1 of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.70. A The requirements of the Program are implemented by Northeast Utilities Service Company (NUSCO), Nuclear Plant Operating Companies (NUPOC), engineer-constructors, contractors, suppliers and engineering service organizations performing activities affecting quality systems, structures and components of nuclear power plants. Procedures define the required Indoctrination and training of personnel performing activiiles affecting quality, as necessary, to assure that suitable proficiency is achieved and maintained. Training sessions are documented, the content described, who attended, when they attended and the results of the training sessions. A periodic program review of the status and adequacy of the NUQAP is accomplished by NUSCO Quality Services audits, surveillance, inspections, and in process verifications by Nuclear Review Board (NRB) Reviews, and by the independent audit team described herein and in QAP 1.0, Section 1.2.4.2. Organizations outside NU are required to review the status and adequacy of that part of the Quality Assurance Program for which they have designated responsibility.

2.2 IMPLEMENTATION o) i'
'l GOALS AND OBJECTIVES 2.2.1 As stated in the Policy Statement of NU, the goals of the NUQAP are to maintain quality levels in an effective and efficient manner and to assure a high degree of functional integrity and reliability of quality systems, structures and components. To meet this goal, the following objectives of the NUQAP have been defined:
- a. Define through documented procedures, the quality activities that apply to the design, fabrication, procurement, construction, testing, operation, refueling, maintenance, repair and modification of nuclear power plants;
- b. Establish, assign and document the responsibilities for the conduct of those activities affecting quallty systems, structures and components;
- c. Establish confidence that (a) the design, fabrica-tion, construction and operation of nuclear power generation facilities are performed in a manner consistent with NU Policies and (b). quality activi-ties are performed by responsible personnel, and
[\ are verified through a system of audits, survell-lances, inspections, and in process verifications of those organizations with quality responsibilities;
- d. Appraise the Senior Vice President, Nuclear Engineering and Operations of unresolved problems and trends which could have a significant effect on nuclear power plant safety and;
- e. Prevent schedule delays and high cost due to poor quality.
2.2.2 PROGRAM DOCUMENTATION This NUQAP Topical Report defines the NU nuclear policies, goals and objectives, and is used as guidance j for the development of the various implementing divi- ' sional, departmental, branch, or section procedures. Revisions to the NUQAP Topleal Report will be made as needed to reflect current requirements and descriptions of activities prior to implementation. These revisions will be made in accordance with a Nuclear Engineering and Operations Group Procedure.

ll L L ! e1 Revisions to the NUQAP Topical-Report, which reduce commitments previously accepted by the NRC, are , t submitted to the NRC for review and approval prior to implementation. [ Revisions which do not reduce previously acopied-commitments are periodically submitted to the NRC as required by 10CFR50.54(a)(3) and 10 -CFR 50.55 (f)(3) . Quality procedures are developed by the departments perforng quality activities. These procedures are reviewed by the departments which are responsible for portions of these procedures. These procedures are' approved by the departments which initiate ..these procedures and are' reviewed and concurred with by NUSCO Quality Services Department for compliance with the NUQAP Topical Report. Changes to procedures are subjected to the same degree of control as that utilized in the preparation of the original document. Each NUSCO Department Head /NUPOC Superintendent is responsible for implementation of the NUQAP, which includes individual. departmental procedure requirements - applicable only to his respective activities. In addi-
% , tion, he is responsible for the preparation, approval and distribution of those instructions, operating pro-cedures, testing procedures or other instructions where further guidance is necessary.
2,2.3 SYSTEMS. STRUCTURES. ANI) COMPONENTS The requirements of the NUQAP Topical Report shall apply, as a minimum, to all activities affecting the safety functions of the systems, structures, and components, as addressed in the Safety Analysis Reports (SARs). Safety systems, structures and components are functionally identified in Appendix A of the NUQAP Topical Report and also as specifically identitled in each FSAR addressing Section 3.2.1 of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.70. For systems, components, and structures covered by , the ASME Code, NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures describe I the measures taken to assure that the quality assurance requirements contained in the code are supplemented by the specific guidance of the applicable regulatory guides listed in Appendix D of this Topical Report.

3.0 ' DESIGN CONTROL 3.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS NUSCO/NUPOC is responsible for controlling design work, admini-stering design control activities (including design interface) and design modifications for quality systems, structures and compo-nents. The NUQAP for design is established to assure that the applicable design requirements, such as design bases, regulatory require-ments, codes, technical standards and ' quality standards are identified in design documents which are reviewed, approved and controlled in accordance with established procedures. Such controls include review for suitability of application of materials, equipment, parts and processes that are essential to the. functions of. the systems, structures and components. Changea to, and deviations from specified requirements are identified, documented and controlled. The responsibility for design control program implementation rests with NUSCO/NUPOC for all NU nuclear generating facilities. The division of responsibilities and jurisdictional boundaries are set forth in the Nuclear Engineering and Operations Procedures (NEOs). Although other organizations' may be delegated the task of estab-
- 11shing and executing the design control program or any part thereof, NUSCO/NUPOC will retain the ultimate responsibility for the program. The applicable requirements of the NUQAP will be imposed on other organizations delegated the task of establishing or executing the program in accordance with QAP 4.0 and QAP 7.0.
The Interface controls, both internal and external, for organiza- . tions performing design work for quality systems, structures and components are identified and implemented in accordance with documented procedures. This identification includes those organi-zations providing criteria, designs, specifications and technical . direction. l Measures are applied to verify the adequacy of design. The i: extent of design verification is specified and documented by the responsible organization. The Individuals performing design verification should not (1) have immediate supervisory respon-r,1bility for the individual performing the design, (2) have specified a singular design approach, (3) have ruled out certain design considerations, or (4) have established the design inputs for the particular design aspect being verified. The independent design verification should not dilute or replace the responsibility of the supervisors for the quality of work performed under their supervision. Where changes to previously verifled designs have been made, design verifications are required for the change, QAP 3.0 Rev.: 22 Date: JU.131989 l Page 1 of 6 l l C. _ l
o including evaluation of the effects of those changes on the overall design. Design verification may be accomplished by testing. Test ('") to demonstrate adequacy under adverse design conditions shall comply with the requirements of QAP 11.0, " TEST CONTROL." Design errors and deficiencies which adversely affect quality systems, structures and components in design process are docu-mented, and appropriate corrective action is taken, These design errors and deficiencies are documented in accordance with design change procedures or as defined in QAP 15.0. 3.2 IMPLEMENTATION NUSCO/NUPOC is responsible for the design, design review, engi-neering approval of design changes, design evaluation and design control of nuclear power plants. The function may be delegated to other organizations to perform the design activity, or any part thereof, but the responsibility for overall design remains with NUSCO/NUPOC. In all cases, final engineering decisions and ultimate design control of systems, structures and components related to nuclear power plants is the responsibility of NUSCO/ NUPOC. NUSCO Quality Services performs audits, surveillance, inspec-tions, in process verifications to verify that the engineering-constructors, contractors, suppliers, engineering service organizations and NU departments are effectively complying with (
' ) the NUQAP and procedural requirements for design control.
,_/
3.2.1 DESIGN PROCESS Design control measures are cpplied to design analyses, such as, reactor physics, stress, thermal, hydraulle, nuclear radiation, accident and seismic analyses; com-l patibility of materials; accessibility for in-service inspection, maintenance, and repair; and delineation of acceptance criteria for inspections and test. Measures established to control design documents are described in QAP 6,0. Program procedures and instructions define the method l for implementing design control measures. These measures require that applicable design requirements, such as, design bases, regulatory requirements, codes and stan-dards, are translated into specifications, drawings, procedures or instructions. Instructions further require that appropriate, quality standards are specified and included in design documents. All materials, equipment, l parts and processes, including standard "off the shelf" l commercial or previously approved items essential to the quality functions, are selected and reviewed for suitabil-p () QAP - 3.0 e: Jdf131989 Page 2 of 6
/:
f ity of application. The basis for selection may include industry standards, material and prototype hardware h.A)'
-(
- testing programs, and design reviews.
NUSCO Procedures assure that a documented check is performed to verify the accuracy and completeness of design drawings and specifications before release to construction. Design drawings receive a documented check to verify dimensional accuracy. Design drawings and specifications, issued for plant design changes during the operations phase of an in- , service nuclear plant, are reviewed for completeness and accuracy before release to operations, in accordance with NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures defining Design Control. NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures describe the provisions to assure that design drawings and specifications are prepared, reviewed and approved in accordance with company procedures, and that the documents contain the necessary quality assurance requirements, such as inspections and test requirements, acceptance require-ments, and the extent of documenting inspection and test results. 3.2.2 DESIGN CHANGE CONTROL
' ~ Procedures and instructions governing design change control during construction, modifications to operating plants, control of discrepant or deficient design condi-tions, and reported unsatisfactory performance, provide for the identification of the need for design changes and a documented method to control these changes. Design and specification changes are subject to design control measures commensurate with those applied during the original design.
An independent review and approval of design changes is performed by the organization that conducted the original design reviews, unless NUSCO/NUPOC designates another quallfled organization to perform this function. Proposed design change modifications are submitted to the in-service units management for processing and review. This review includes the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC)/ Site Operations Review Committee (SORC) . PORC/SORC is advisory to the appropriate NUPOC Superintendents on matters relating to nuclear safety. Its composition, responsibilities, and authority are defined in Section 6 of each in-service unit Technical O QAP - 3.0 Rev.: 12 Date:JUL 131989 Page 3 of 6
-s Specification. If the change involves a quality system
) structure or component, the change will be reviewed by
-( V quallfled engineering personnel for technical adequacy.
Reviews of the design change requests are performed by the Nuclear Review Board / Environmental Review Board on safety evaluations / environmental questions. The sequence of the NRB raview depends upon the determina-tion of whether an unreviewed safety question is involved (i.e. , in accordance with ANSI N18.7, if a proposed change in.the facility involves an unreviewed safety question then the NRB review is conducted prior to implementation). The combination of these independent reviews by the PORC/SORC and NRB/ ERB are performed to assure that:
- a. the adequacy of the proposed change is determined;
- b. unreviewed safety / environmental questions are properly identified and handled per 10 CFR 50.59;
- c. nuclear safety / environmental requirements have been considered.
Errors and deficiencies in design, including the design process, that could adversely affect quality structures,
/O systems, and components are documented and corrective
( ,/ action is taken to preclude repetition. During the operations phase, notification of plant design changes are transmitted to responsible plant personnel as part of the design package close out. NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures describe this notification which assures that personnel are made aware of design change modifications which may affect the performance of their duties. 3.2.3 DESIGN INTERFACE CONTROL During design, construction or modifications of' nuclear power plants, the Nuclear Engineering and Operations Group is responsible for review, coordination and docu-mentation of design interfaces. Procedures provide the method for identification of design interfaces, design interface changes, and modifications affecting drawings and design documents. During plant design and construction phases, control of interfaces may be delegated to the engineer-constructor and/or Nuclear Stream Supply System (NSSS) supplier.

design interface questions are documented. 3.2.4 INDEPENDENT DESIGN VERIFICATION Original designs and design modifications are reviewed for adequacy and the sign-off performed by a person other than the originator of the design. Design verifi-cation is documented in accordance with procedures or instructions. Simplified calculations or computer i programs may be utilized as alternate means of design . verification. When design verification is performed by I testing, the tests are performed using approved pro-cedures, which specify the authority and responsibility of design verification personnel. Ultimate responsibility for design adequacy and evaluation is retained by NUSCO/NUPOC, as appropriate. Design verification (if other than by qualification testing) is normally completed prior to release for procurement, manufacturing, and construction, or to another organization for use in other design activities. For those cases where design verification cannot bc
,m completed prior to release for procurement, manufac-turing, and construction, procedures ensure that design (V) verification is completed prior to the point when the installation is declared operational.
NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures describe the requirements which assure the following when testing is considered as an alternate method of design verification:
- a. Specifications or procedures provide criteria that specify when verification should be by test.
- b. Prototype, component or feature testing is performed as early as possible prior to installation of plant equipment, or prior to the point when the instal-lation is declared operational.
- c. Verification by test performed un-'er conditions that simulate the most adverse conditions as determined by analysis.
Particular emphasis is placed on assuring that designs are in conformance with applicable codes, and on selecting the proper design verification or checking method. Procedures and instructions provide the requirements (3 G QAP - 3.0 Rev.: '2 Date: JEL 131989 Page 5 of 6
l L
. and ~ necessary controls' for design verification. These !
controls include a' review to assure that design charac-k teristics can be controlled, verification that there is l adequate accessibility for inspection or test, and that Inspection and test acceptance criteria are incorporated. L. During the operations phase, documentation of reviews is !. provided. NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures include requirements which ' identify the responsibility of design verifiers, the areas and features to be verified, and the extent of the docu-mentation. NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures assure that procedural control is established for design documents that reflect the commitments of the SAR. These procedural controls vary for design documents which receive formal design verification by several disciplines or organizations, and those which can be reviewed by a utngl<s individual. The specific design documents and specialized reviews are determined and used as required by the design changes and modifications. NUSCO/NUPOC Procedures are established to assure that verified computer programs are certifled for a specific use. NUSCO/NUPOC is responsible for assuring that the design' documents generated by the engineer-constructor, contractors, suppliers and engineering service organiza-tions are adequately generated, approved and maintained.

- testing, operation and maintenance of nuclear power plants and
. modifications thereto, be performed in accordance with approved procedures in order to prevent inadvertent use or installation.
These procedures include appropriate requirements for identi-fication, documentation, segregation and disposition of nonconforming items, and notification to affected organizations. In accordance with procedures, nonconforming materials, parts, components, or services are reviewed and accepted, rejected, repaired or reworked. 15.2 IMPLEMENTATION 15.2.1_ BOGRAM
?.pproved procedures define the responsibilities and establish measures for identification, documentation, segregation, review and disposition of nonconforming materials, parts, components, or services, and notifi-
[3 cation to affected organizations. Each NU department is V responsible for the identification, control and disposition of nonconformances within the scope of their departmental responsibilities. NUSCO Quality Services performs on-site and off-site audits, surveillance, inspections, and in process verifications of any engineer-constructors, contractors, suppliers and engineering service org9.nizations utilized by NUSCO/NUPOC to verify these < organizations are effectively complying with their gutlity assurance program requirements for documentation and control of noncor. forming materials, parts, components, or services. 15.2.2 DOCUMENTING AND CONTROLLING NONCONFORMANCES , Nonconformances of systems, structures and components are documented and reported as requiring corrective action. Approved procedures delineate contrnis required for further processing and installation of nonconforming items. These controls include:
- a. Physical identification of received materials, parts, or components as nonconformlag is maintained by a O QAP - 15.0 Rev. : 12 Date:
Page 1JU[ of 4} 3 jggg
,s system of tags which is a* administratively controlled (v ) by NUSCO Quality Services.
- b. Installed nonconforming items are controlled by suitable tags and/or documentation, util properly dispositioned by NUPOC procedures.
15.2.3 DOCUMENTATION Documentation of nonconforming items requires identi-fication of the items, description of the nonconformance, disposition of the nonconformance, inspection require-ments and signaturo approval of the disposition. A trend analysis, which includes nonc >nformances, is performed by NUSCO Quality Services in accordance with approved procedures. The trend analysis results are periodically reported to the NUSCO Director, Quality Services and then to upper management, including the Senior Vice President, Nuclear Engineering and Operations, for review and assessment. An engineering evaluation is performed, if necessary, prior to the resolution of nonconformances relating to nystems, structures and components. 15.2.4 EVALUATION AND DISPOSITION Evaluations are performed to determine the disposition of noncotbraing items and services. The evaluation deter-mines whether an item or service is to be used as is, returned to supplier, repaired, reworked, scrapped or salvaged. These evaluations assure that the final condition does not adversely affect safety, operation or maintenance of the item or service, or of tht component or system in which the item is installed or on which the service is performed. Applicable information is accumu-lated and records are maintainers. The engineer-constructors, contractors, or NUSCO/ NUPOC personnel are required to report to the NUSCO Discipline Engineering Supervisor (Nuclear Engineering and Operations Organizations), or the appropriate NUPOC Superintendent, as applicable, to obtain release of nonconforming item or service prior to its installation or use. These release items are identified by a noncon-formance Tagging System which defines the description i of the nonconformance and its nonconformance status. Nonconformance reports dispositioned "use as is" or
" repair" are forwarded to the appropriate NUSCO Discipline Engineering Supervisor (Nuclear Engineering q /
QAP - 15.0 Rev.- 12 Data: 2 Page JUL1 of 4 31989 (
r-ew and Operations Organizations), NUSCO Project Engineer,
" ) or the- appropriate NUPOC Superintendent, as applicable, for review and approval. The NUSCO Discipline Engineering Supervisor may approve NCRs generated under their area of responsibliity for work that is being performed prior to system turnover and testing.
NUSCO Quality Services performs audits, surveillance and in process verifications to verify that NUSCO/NUPOC dispositions for nonconformance reports are adequate. In addition, the status of all materials, parts, or components is maintained by a system of tags, which is administratively controlled by NUSCO Quality Services. During NUSCO-directed activities of a nuclear plant, NUSCO Generation Construction and NUSCO Quality Services are responsible for documenting the status of nonconforming, inoperative, or malfunctioning struc-tures, " ystems, components, and services as described in NUSCO Procedures. During NUPOC-directed activities of a nuclear plant, the status of nonconforming, inoperative, or malfunctioning systems, structures, componentr, and services is documented as necessary by NUSCO Quality Services and NUPOC Operaticas personnel
- as described in applicable NUPOC Procedures.
U The need to release nonconforming materials, parts or components shall be based on such considerations as:
- a. Impact on plant safety;
- b. Safety of personnel;
- c. Suitability of material or items in the "as is" condition, i.e. , probability of eventual satisfactory resolution of the nonconformity without repair, rework or replacement;
- d. Accessibility of material or items after release;
- e. Cost of removal and repair or replacement should material or items eventually have to be removed, repaired, or replaced;
- f. Effect on the orderly progress of work.

NUSCO Quality Services performs audits to identify deficiencies in departmental corrective action programs. l The appropriate NUSCO Department Director / Branch Manager /Section Supervisor or the appropriate NUPOC Superintendent, is responsible to implement timely corrective action. NUSCO Quality Services may reaudit the affected department to verify corrective action has been implemented and documented. If corrective action is inadequate or not timely, the
' follow-up organization requests corrective action from management as delineated in procedures. The Senior Vice President-Nuclear Engineering and Operations has the final authority in the event that agreement is not reached at lower, levels.
Wh'ere corrective action is required of contracSr personnel, NUSCO/NUPOC defines in procedures and contracts the corrective action interface between NUSCO/ NUPOC and the contractor. NUSCO/NUPOC requires the
,- engineer-constructor, contractor, suppliers and engi- ! neering service organizations, as appropriate, to have a A-) documented corrective action program for materials and services.
16.2.2 RECURRENCE CONTROL The organization which is responsible for the condition adverse to quality, shall ensure that the corrective action will not only correct the immediate condition, but also prevent the adverse condition from recurring. NUSCO/NUPOC procedures establish the responsibilities and measures taken to identify trends of conditions, adverse to qual.ity, and to ensure that corrective action is taken for those conditions to prevent their recur-rence. A trend analysis report which identifies the conditions adverse to quality is issued to appropriate levels of NU management. The NUSCO Director, QusWy Services is responsible for follow-up of the trend analysis items and their corrective action. Trends concerning specific contractor's performance shall be reported to the effected contractor for resolution and corrective action to prevent recurrence of the problem. b- QAP .16.0 Rev.: I)nte: Ju),2l 1 3 1989 Page 2 of 2

NORTHEAST UTILITIES QUALITY ASSURANCE _ PROGRAM TOPICAL REPORT Program Exceptions
- 1. ANSI N45.2.9, states in part, " structure, doors, frames, and hardware should be Class A fire-related with a recommended four-hour minimum ratmg." The records storage vault door and hard-ware at NNECO has a two-hour rating and the record storage vault door and hardware at CYAPCO has a three-hour rating.
Both NNECO and CYAPCO's vaults are used for storage of docu-mentation that is unsultable for filming or awaiting filmireg. A records organization exists along with written procedures addressing the control of quality assurance records.
- 2. ANSI N18.7-1976, paragraph 4.3.2.3 " Quorum" states in part: "A quorum for formal meetings of the (Independent Review) Committee held under the provisions of 4.3.2.2 shall consist of not less than a majority of the principals, or duly appointed alternates. . ."
The use of Alternates was eliminated from the Northeast Utilities Nuclear Review Board (NRB) Charter due to the difficulties of keeping the Alternates up to date. The elimination of Alternates [V-) forced the creation of a larger NRB membership (eight to eleven members) for greater diversity, resources, and availability. A quorum of the Nuclear Review Board shall consist of the Chairman or Vice Chairman and at least enough members to constitute a majority of the assigned members. No more than a minority of the quorum shall be from the Nuclear Operations Department.
- 3. ANSI N45.2. 9-197_4, paragrnph 1.4, definition of " Quality Assurance Records" states in part: "For the purposes of this standard, a document is considered a quality assurance recor.d when the docu-ment has been completed."
Northeast Utilities has developed the following alternative definition to provide guidance during the interim period from the time a { document is completed until li is transmitted to the Nuclear Plant l Records Facility:
"A record in considered a werking document until it is transmitted to the appropriate Nuclear Plant Records Facility (NPRF) at which time it is designated as a Quality Assurance Record. The following maximum time limits are established for the transmittal of working documents to the NPRF:

- 4. -Regulatory Guide 1.64 - 6/76, the Regulatory position states, in :
part, "It should not be construed that such verification constitutes i the required independent design verification." Northeast Utilities I has developed the following alternative to allow for adequate inde- , pendent design verification: This review may be performed by the originator's Supervisor, only if the Supervisor: Did not specify a singular design approach; Did not establish the design inputs or did not rule out certain design considerations; Is the only individual in the organization competent to perform the review. Where the Supervisor performs the design r9 view, the next level , of management shall fulfill the Supervisor'n responsit,ilities. l ( LJ QAF - Appendix F i Rev.: 12 { Date: Mll Page 2 of 2] ,1 1039 ,
