exceeding established limits. Safety is not compromised, however, by continuing operation with certain instru-mentation channels out, of service since provisions were made for this in the plant design. This specification outlines limiting conditions for operation necessary to preserve the effectiveness of the reactor control and protection system when any one or more of the channels is out of service. | |||
Almost all reactor protection channels are supplied with sufficient redundancy to provide the capability for channel calibration and test at power. Exceptions are backup channels such as reactor coolant pump breakers. | |||
The removal, of one trip channel is accomplished by placing that channel bistable in a tripped mode; e.g., | |||
a two-out-of-three circuit becomes a one-out-of-two circuit. .Testing does not trip the system unless a trip condition exists in a concurrent channel. | |||

Basis Iiguid wastes from the Radioactive Waste Disposal System are diluted in the Circulating Water System discharge prior to release to the lake. With two pumps operating, the capacity of the Circulating Water System is 400,000 gpm. Operation of a single circulating water pump reduces the nominal flow rate by about 50%. | |||
The circulating water flow under various operating conditions has been calculated from the head differential across the pumps and the manufacturer's head-capacity curves. Because of the low radioactivity levels in the circulating water discharge, the concentration of liquid radioactive effluents at. this point will not be measured directly. The concentration in the circulating water discharge will be calculate'd from the measured concentration in the Waste Condensate Tank, the flow 3.9-7 | |||
1' rate of the Waste Condensate Pumps, and the flow in the Circulating Water System. Radioactive effluents released to unrestricted areas on the basis of gross beta analysis are based on the assumption that I-129 and 'radium are not present,. Accordingly, Appendix B, Table II, Column H | |||
2 of 10CFR20 will permit a concentration up to 1 x 10 uCi/ml in the circulating water discharge. If the con-centration of liquid wastes in the circulating water discharge equals NPC as specified, the average concentra-tion at the intake of the nearest, public water supply at Ontario, New York, would be well below NPC. | |||
Thus, discharge of liquid wastes at. the specified maximum concentrations will not result in significant exposure to members of the public as a result of consump-tion of drinking water from the lake, even if the effects of potable water treatment systems on reducing radioactive concentration of the water supply are neglected. | |||
The concentration limit for noble gases is based upon the assumption that. Xe-135 is the controlling radio-isotope and its NPC in air was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using ICRP Publication 2 method-ology. | |||
Specification 3.9.1.2 is provided to implement. the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A and -IV.A of Appendix I. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set. forth in Section II.A of Appendix I. The 3.9-8 | |||
I | |||
\ | |||
8 | |||
Specifications provide the required operating flexi-bility and at the same time implement the guides set. | |||
forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I. The dose calcula-tions in the ODCN implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I is to be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of a real individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The requirements that the appropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will'e kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." | |||
This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and design objective Section II.D of Appendix I. The limits governing the use of appro-priate portions of the liquid radwaste'reatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I for liquid effluents. | |||
A dose projection which exceeds the stated limit does not necessarily imply that all portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system be used because certain subsystems may have minimal effects on'educing doses. | |||
Specification 3.9.2.1 is provided to ensure that, the dose rate at. any time at, the site boundary from gaseous effluents will be within the annual dose limits of 10 | |||
: 3. 9-9 | |||
el Cl | |||
CFR Part 20 for unrestricted areas. The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an unrestricted area, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)). For individuals who may at, times be within the site boundary, these occupancy times will be sufficiently small to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the site, boundary. | |||
Specification 3.9.2.2 is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B, II.C, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I. The limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I. The Specifications provide the required operating flexibility and at, the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I. | |||
The requirement that the appropriate portions of the gaseous radwaste treatment system and the ventilation exhaust treatment system be used when specified provides reasonable assurance that. the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This specification implements 3.9-10 | |||
the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part, 50, and design objective Section II.D of Appendix I. The limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents. | |||
A dose projection which exceeds the stated limit does not necessarily imply that all portions of the gaseous and ventilation exhaust treatment. systems be used because certain subsystems may have minimal effect on reducing doses. | |||
Specification 3.9.2.4 is provided to meet, the reporting requirements of 40 CFR 190. Since the plant is well removed from other fuel cycle facilities, it, is suffi-cient to apply the Specification only to the plant. | |||
Specification =-3.9.2.5 is provided to ensure that the concentration of potentially explosive gas mixtures contained in the gas decay tanks are maintained below the flammability limit of oxygen. Naintaining the concentration of oxygen below its flammability limits provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials will be controlled in conformance with the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. | |||

Basis The radiological monitoring program required by this specification provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest | |||
'I potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least three years. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience. | |||
Specification 3.15.2 is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. A garden census is not required since an onsite garden will be used. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. | |||
The requi'rement for participation in an interlaboratory comparison program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices 3.15-4 | |||
are performed as part of a quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are reasonably valid. Only samples with radioactivity levels comparable to levels in environmental samples need be analyzed. | |||

'1'he radiological environmental monitoring samples shall be collected pursuant to Table 3.15-1. Acceptable locations are shown in the ODCM. Samples shall be analyzed pursuant to the requirements of Tables 3.15-1 and 4.10-1. | |||
A land use census shall be conducted annually (between June 1 and October 1). | |||
Basis The environmental survey has been designed to utilize the knowledge about dilution in the atmosphere and in the lake which has been gained during the pre-operational and operational period of study. | |||
The radiological monitoring program provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those pathways and for those radionuclides which 'xposure lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the 4.10-1 | |||
k measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. | |||
The detection capabilities required by Table 4.10-1 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. The specified lower limits of detection for I-131 in water, milk, and other food products correspond to approximately one-quarter of the Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 design objective dose-equivalent of 15 mrem/year for atmospheric releases and 10 mrem/year for liquid releases to the maximally exposed organ and individual. | |||

f @*5~(f It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability fact) limit for a particular measurement. | |||
h Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions. Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidably small sample sizes, the presence of interferring nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable. When circumstances result in LLDs higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent, Report. | |||
For certain radionuclides with low gamma yield or low energies, or for certain radionuclide mixtures, it may not be possible to measure radionuclides in concentrations near the LLD. | |||
Under these circumstances, the LLD may be increased inversely propoPionally .to the magnitude of the gamma yield (i.e., 5 x 10 /I, where I is the photon abundance expressed as a decimal fraction), but in no case shall the LLD, as calculated in this manner for a specific radionuclide, be greater than 10% of the NPC value specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix 8, Table II, Column II. | |||
A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste dis-charged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released. | |||
The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides: | |||
Nn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Cs-134, Cs-137, and Ce-141. This list does not mean that, only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should be reported as less than the LLD and should not be reported as being present at the LLD level. The less than values should not be used in the required dose calculations. When unusual circumstances result in LLD's higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report. | |||

effluents have been developed based upon NRC guidance provided in Effluent Technical S ecifications for PWRs. The NRC gul.dance has een adapted to a format su>.table or inclusion in the Ginna Technical Specifications and changes have been made,to account for the Ginna facility design. The proposal includes requirements to ensure compliance with 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 and 40 CFR 190. | |||
Effluent monitors are provided to aid in ensuring that the limits of 10 CFR Part 20 are met. The allowance for inoperability is generally consistent with the NRC guidance and requires that sampling of effluents be performed in case a monitor is required but inoperable. Instead of shutting down the plant if the oxygen monitor is inoperable, samples will be taken at short intervals. | |||
This is preferred since a plant shutdown would result. in a sig-nificant amount of waste gas which would have to be handled during a time at which it may be desirable to minimize gas handling. | |||
4 Limiting 0onditions for operation to implement, 10 CFR Parts 20 and 50 have been developed following NRC guidance. For un-planned gaseous releases, a 24 hour averaging is permitted in determining compliance with 10 CFR Part 20. This is acceptable based on the definitions within Part 20 and based upon effluent surveillance instrumentation analysis schedules. Radwaste treat-ment equipment will be operated, as appropriate, to limit potential doses due to plant effluents. Portions or all of the radwaste treatment systems are required to be operated should the projected doses otherwise exceed preestablished values. | |||
No limits have been proposed for contents of the gas decay tanks. This due to the fact that any credible quantity of waste gas in any single tank will be well below the quantity which would have to be released to yield a site boundary dose of 0.5 Rem, even with accident, meteorology. Specifically, FSAR Section 14.2.3 reports a reactor coolant system inventory of equivalent xenon assuming no release over a full core cycle and one percent failed fuel as 46,000 Curies. Using the equations presented in | |||
. NUREG-0133, one finds that a release of approximately 100,000 Curies is necessary to yield a site boundary dose of 0.5 Rem. | |||
This assumes that accident meteorology is used instead of annual average meteorology, which seems more appropriate and would provide even greater margins. | |||
An environmental monitoring program is reestablished based on NRC guidance. Samples are collected and analyzed at intervals throughout the year with sampling being conducted at a reduced level during the winter. This reduction is acceptable based on the fact that food pathways are either absent or of reduced con-sequences in the winter. | |||

In Table 4.1-3, channel calibration is to be performed annually instead of at, refueling intervals. This is to avoid the necessity to calibrate during refueling outages.

Environmental surveillance requirements are consistent with NRC guidance. | |||
Effluent surveillance is presented in Section 4.12. Batch releases are sampled as shown in Table 4.12-1. Since compliance with 10 CFR Part 20 may be shown through a gross beta analysis, this is permitted. | |||

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM FOR STATION OPERATION Qualit Assurance Pro ram The quality assurance program described in this Supplement has been developed by the Rochester Gas and Electric Cor-poration to assure safe and reliable operation of the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. This program applies to all activities affecting the safety related functions of. the structures, systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue risk to the health and safety of the public. ,These quality affecting activities include operation, maintenance, repair, inservice inspection, refueling, modification, test and inspection. In addition, the quality assurance program applies to the activities associated with the packaging of licensed radioactive materials to be shipped in accordance with 10 CFR Part, 71. | |||
The basic Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation quality assurance policy is established by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer in his Corporate Statement of Quality Assurance Policy. This policy is implemented by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production, through the Manager, Quality Assurance, and the Ginna Station Superintendent. | |||
The'rogram is governed by a Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual whi'ch contains the requirements and assignment of responsibilities for implementation of the program. The manual is prepared, reviewed, and maintained by Quality Assurance and approved by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production. | |||
The program is implemented through Quality Assurance, Ginna Station, Engineering, General Maintenance, Electric Meter and Laboratory and Purchasing Procedures. These procedures are prepared and approved by the responsible organization and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. The p'rocedures are contained in separate manuals maintained by the responsible organization. All these procedures are reviewed for adequacy at least once every two years by the responsible organization. Table IV.l-l provides a listing of the subjects and a short description of the subject matter which is contained in the procedures. | |||
Organizational interfaces are defined and controlled by sections of the Quality Assurance Manual. Organizational responsibilities are described in Section IV.2. | |||
The quality assurance program covers all existing Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components, including their foundations and supports. Activities. affecting the quality of these structures, systems, and components are IV-1 Revision 4 December 1978 | |||
II controlled to an extent consistent'ith their importance to safety. A detailed lists.ng of the structures, systems, and components covered by the quality assurance program, based on Section 1.2.1 of the Final Facility Description and Safety Analysis Report, is contained in the Quality Assur-ance Manual. | |||
Details of the system boundaries and the quality classi-fication of water-and-steam-containing components are con-tained on system flow drawings. The listing of structures, systems, and components -covered by the quality assurance program and the system flow drawings are prepared and main-tained by Engineering and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. r Modifications or additions to existing, structures, systems, and components are designated the same seismic classifica-tion as the existing system. New structures, systems, and components are designated a seismic classification in accordance with the 'guidelines in USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.29. | |||
Supervisory personnel are indoctrinated in quality assurance policies, manuals, and procedures to assure they understand that these are mandatory requirements which must be imple-mented and enforced. Personnel responsible for performing activities affecting quality are trained and indoctrinated in the requirements, purpose, scope, and implementation of quality related manuals and procedures. Refresher sessions are held periodically and retraining is required whenever a new procedure is issued or a major revision is made to an existing procedure. Training of personnel not in the quality assurance organization is the responsibility of each department performing an activity affecting quality. Quality Assurance assists in establishing training requirements and assures that personnel are trained by auditing training records. | |||
1n addition to training in quality assurance, each depart-ment conducts on-the-job training to the extent necessary'to assure that personnel are qualified for their primary work assignments. | |||
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for the formal training, qualification, licensing, and requali-fication of operators, as necessary. Wlhere necessary, personnel are trained in radiation protection, plant safety and security. | |||
The Nuclear Safety Audit and Review Board is required to review the status and adequacy of the quality assurance program at least once every two years to assure that meaningful and is effectively complying with corporate it is policy and 10CFR50, Appendix B. This review consists of audits or a review equivalent to an audit performed, by IV-2 Revision 4 December 1978 | |||

h lj | |||
Quality Assurance .procedures are approved by the Manager, Quality Assurance. | |||
The Quality Assurance Manual requires that documents be controlled as appropriate, considering the type of document involved, its importance to safety, and the intended use of the document. It specifies the types of documents which must be controlled; identifies the difference between con-trolled and uncontrolled copies of the same document; includes the method for identifying holders of controlled copies; requires that only controlled copies of a document be used for official purposes; requires that lists of effective revisions be issued periodically; requires lists of document holders to be maintained by the distributors; and requires that distributors transmit controlled documents using approved forms internally and externally. | |||
Types of documents which are controlled include Technical Specifications, FSAR, Technical Supplements, Quality Assur-ance Manual, procedures (such as quality assurance, engineering, purchasing, repair, maintenance, test, cali-bration, fuel handling, modification, and administrative), | |||
specifications and drawings. Suppliers of materials, equipment, and services are required in procurement documents to provide for control of documents, including manufacturing, inspection and testing instructions. | |||
The Quality Assurance Manual further requires that each organization provide in its procedures for measures: to assure that documents are available when required; to pro-perly review and approve documents such as procedures, instructions, specifications, and drawings; to provide the same reviews and approvals for changes to documents as was required of the original document; to require that organiza-tions which review and approve documents have access to pertinent information and adequate knowledge of the original document intent; to assure that approved changes are promptly transmitted for incorporation into documents; and to assure that obsolete or superseded documents are eliminated from the system and not used. | |||
Quality Assurance and the Quality Control organizations, in the responsible departments, are responsible for review and concurrence of procurement documents and, therefore, procure-ment document control requirements. | |||
Quality Assurance and the Quality Control organizations are further responsible for review, inspection, surveillance, and audit, as appropriate, of document control systems to assure adequate systems are implemented. | |||
Revision 4 December 1978 | |||
Ih Ip | |||
Control of Purchased Material E ui ment and Services Procurement documents, supplier selection, planning for item or service acceptance control of supplier performance and acceptance of items and services are five major means used in controlling purchased material, equipment and services. | |||
All procurement is conducted in accordance with procurement documents as stated in Section IV-4. All reviews, inspec-tions, surveillances, and audits are conducted by personnel who are competent in establishing whether or not a supplier is capable of providing acceptable, quality products. | |||
Procurement planning is utilized by the procuring organiza-tions for determining the methods to be used for acceptance of the item or service as well as requirements for the control of the supplier performance. Source inspection (surveillance) certificate of conformance, receipt inspection and post instal-lation test are methods which are considered for item acceptance with receipt inspection utilized in the acceptance of all items. | |||
In lieu of these methods, acceptance of services is based on either or a combination of: (1) surveillance of the activity and (2) review of objective evidence for conformance to the procurement document requirements (i.e. certifications, stress reports etc.). The extent of the acceptance methods and as-sociated verification activities will vary and be a function of the relative importance and complexity of the purchased item or service and the suppliers past performance. | |||
Consideration for the control of supplier performance includes 5 the necessity for document submittals or surveillance, and under what situation the supplier is to report nonconformances. | |||
Results of the planning are incorporated in the procurement documents and or on the attached procurement control form as described in Section IV.4. | |||
Selection of a supplier is based on the evaluation of its capability to provide the item or services in accordance with the requirements of the procurement documents. The evaluation which is accomplished during the procurement planning, deter-: | |||
mines the necessity for the'upplier selection to be from the approved suppliers list maintained by Purchasing. Purchasing utilizes the approved suppliers list for the selection source of those suppliers required to have a satisfactory quality assurance program. The evaluation guidelines for source se-lection considers the item complexity, method(s) of acceptance and for a replacement item, if the source is to be restricted to the original supplier. For engineered and off-the-shelf items, procured from suppliers required to have a quality assurance program and for which item acceptance is based other than on receipt inspection, supplier selection is from the approved suppliers list or one who is in the process of being added to the list, after having had its capability evaluated Revision 5 si April 1979 | |||

t | |||
to purchaser satisfaction. Other off-the-shelf items, that are manufactured to industry standards, that are typically utilized in applications other than nuclear, and for which item acceptance is based exclusively on receipt inspection may be purchased from sources other than the approved suppliers list. These other sources may include the manufacturer of the replacement part, authorized distributor for the manufacturer's replacement parts and distributor of catalog items which satisfy the guidelines of not requiring status on the approved suppliers list. Departmental procedures establish guidelines for source selection evaluations and for documenting the results on the procurement control form through, indication of the corresponding procurement method. The purchase requisition will also identify the source when replacement parts are to be procured from the original equipment supplier. | |||
Addition of a supplier to the approved suppliers list is based on satisfactory evaluation of the supplier's capability by Quality Assurance, Purchasing and other departments, as appropriate. | |||
For Engineered items, Engineering is responsible for evalu-4I ating 'the overall d'esign or manufacturing capability of the supplier including his particular technical ability to produce the design, service, item, or component delineated in the procurement documents. As part of this review, the supplier's design capabilities, machinery capabilities, handling capabilities, testing facilities, service capabili-ties, and experience are reviewed. | |||
Quality Assurance is responsible for, evaluating the supplier's overall quality assurance organization and program in accordance with applicable codes, standards, applicable parts of 10CFR50 Appendix B, and Rochester Gas and Electric requirements. | |||
The review includes consideration of: company organization, quality assurance personnel qualifications, review and control of design documents, manufacturing procedures, quality assurance procedures, calibration practices, accept-ance criteria, 'required quality assurance records and their retention, and quality assurance, requirements and controls imposed by the supplier on his subcontractors. Supplier evaluation is conducted by means of procedures or checklists which identify applicable regulatory or code quality assur-ance requirements. | |||
4( Ginna Station, General Maintenance, Quality Assurance and Electric Meter and Laboratory evaluate the suppliers of inspection, test, and calibration services which they intend S n/ to use. | |||

I Ginna Station, General Maintenance, Electric Meter and 4I Laboratory and Fuel Planning is required to place a supplier 3 on the qualified suppliers'ist. One organization can remove a supplier from the list without concurrence of the others. | |||
Measures are established by Engineering and Quality Assurance to control supplier performance for engineered items. These measures typically include the processing of change infor-mation, surveillance of supplier activities and the control of documents exchanged with the supplier. In addition, each department procuring off-the-shelf items or services establishes similar measures for the control of supplier performance. With the exception of processing change information, the need for and applicable extent of purchaser controls of the supplier are determined during procurement planning. | |||
Quality Assurance is responsible for determining and document-ing the degree of supplier surveillance (including review, inspection, or audit) required during design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and shipping, and for providing the required surveillance. The objective of supplier surveil-lance is to provide a sampling review of the supplier's quality assurance program implementation and of product conformance with respect to the purchase order requirements. | |||
For complex engineered items, Quality Assurance and Engi-neering are responsible for joint development of surveillance plans in advance of surveillance trips to identify areas to be reviewed. | |||
T he results of the surveillance trip are documented by means of inspection sheets or trip reports which are distributed 3 to the Manager, Quality Assurance, and the department which initiated the procurement. When a deviation from purchase order requirements is noted, the Quality Assurance represen-tative has the authority to inform the vendor that a particular item is unacceptable, to issue a nonconformance report, or to stop work, if necessary. | |||
4IGinna Station Quality Control is responsible for surveillance of site contractors to assure that they meet all technical and quality requirements. The reporting and documenting of contractor surveillance is managed in a manner similar to supplier surveillance. | |||

~ | |||
Control performs an inspection for shipping damage or lost parts and a document check to assure that the required docu-mentation has been reviewed and is complete. A receiving inspection checklist is completed for all items received to document the extent of the inspection performed, including the documents checked, and the inspection results. | |||
If the item and documentation are adequate, Quality Control labels the item as "Accepted," files the documentation and receipt inspection results, and releases the item for storage or use. If the item is nonconforming or the documentation 4[pIis unsatisfactory, Quality Control initiates a nonconformance report which is controlled in accordance with Section IV.15. | |||
n All items issued must bear an acceptance tag and have docu-mentation to support the acceptability of the item. In the event the traceability is lost or the documentation review is unsatisfactory, the item becomes nonconforming and may not be released for use. | |||
IV. 8 Identification and Control of Materials Parts and The identification and control of materials, parts, and components is accomplished in accordance with written requirements and applies to material, parts, or components in any stage of fabrication, storage, or installation. | |||
Identification and control requirements are established by either an existing, procedure or requirements documents which are prepared during the planning stages of a project. The identification and control requirements cover items such as: | |||
traceability to associated documents such as drawings, specifications, purchase orders, manufacturing test data and inspection documents, and physical and chemical mill test reports; specification of the degree of identification to preclude a degradation of the item's functional capability IV-17 Revision 5 April 1979 | |||

I I QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM FOR STATION OPERATION Qualit Assurance Pro ram The quality assurance program described in this Supplement has been developed by the Rochester Gas and Electric Corpora-tion to assure safe and reliable operation of the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. This program applies to all activities affecting the safety related functions of the structures, systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the con-sequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue | |||
, risk to the health and safety of the public. These quality affecting activities include operating, maintaining, repair-ing, refueling, and modifying. | |||
The basic Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation quality assurance policy is established by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer in his Corporate State-ment of Quality Assurance Policy. This policy is imple-mented by the Senior Vice President, Electric and Steam through the Quality Assurance Coordinator and the Ginna Station Superintendent. | |||
The program is governed by a Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual which contains the requirements and assignment of responsibilities for implementation of the program. The manual is developed and maintained by the Quality Assurance Coordinator and reviewed and approved | |||
>>I by the Senior Vice President, Electric and Steam. | |||
The program is implemented through Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Engineering, and Purchasing Pro-cedures. .These procedures are developed by the responsible organization (i.e., Quality Assurance, Operations, Engineer-ing, and Purchasing) and reviewed and approved by the Quality Assurance Coordinator. The procedures are contained in separate manuals maintained by the responsible organization. | |||
All these procedures are reviewed for adequacy at least once every two years by the responsible organization. Table IV. | |||
1-.1 provides a listing of the subjects and a short descrip-tion of the subject matter which is contained in the pro-cedures. | |||
Organizational interfaces are defined and controlled by sections of the Quality Assurance Manual. Organizational responsibilities are described in Section IV.2. | |||
The quality assurance program covers all existing Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components, including their foundations and supports. Activities, affecting the quality of these structures, systems, and components are controlled to an extent consistent with their importance to safety. A detailed listing of the structures, systems, IV-2 | |||
I and components covered by'he quality assurance program, based on Section 1.2.1 of the Final Facility Description and Safety Analysis Report, is contained in the Quality Assurance Manual. | |||
Details of the system boundaries and the quality classifica-I tion of water-and-steam-containing components are contained on system flow drawings. The listing of structures, systemsi and components covered by the quality assurance program D | |||
and the system flow drawings are prepared and maintained by Engineering t and reviewed and approved by Quality Assurance. | |||
Modifications or additions to existing structures, systems, and components are designated the same seismic classifica-tion as the existing system. New structures, systems, and components are designated a seismic classification in accordance with the guidelines in USAEC Regulatory Guide 1.29. | |||
Supervisory personnel are indoctrinated in quality assurance policies, manuals, and procedures to assure they understand that these are mandatory requirements which must be imple-mented and enforced. Personnel responsible for performing activities affecting quality are trained and indoctrinated in the requirements, purpose, scope, and implementation of quality related manuals and procedures. Refresher sessions XV-3 | |||
0 are held periodically and retraining is required whenever a new procedure is issued or a major revision is made to an existing procedure. Training of personnel not in the quality assurance organization is the responsibility of each department performing an activity affecting quality. | |||
Quality Assurance assists in establishing training re-quirements and assures that personnel are trained by auditing training records. | |||
In addition to training in quality assurance, each department conducts on-the-job training to assure that personnel are qualified for their primary work assignments. | |||
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for the formal training, qualification, licensing, and requali-I fication of operators, as necessary. Where necessary, personnel are trained in radiation protection, plant safety and security. | |||
The Nuclear Safety Audit and Review Board is required to review the status and adequacy of the quality assurance program at least once every two years to assure that it is meaningful and is effectively complying with corporate policy and 10CFR50, Appendix B. 'his review consists of audits or a review equivalent to an audit performed by company personnel or outside consultants. Reviews will be conducted every six months during the first two years, that the program is implemented. | |||
IV-4 | |||
The quality assurance program is designed to,meet the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, Appendix B, "Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants." The program con-forms to the following AEC Regulatory Guides and ANSI Standards: | |||
: a.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM FOR STATION OPERATION Qualit Assurance Pro ram The quality assurance program described in this Supplement has been developed by the Rochester Gas and Electric Corpora-tion to assure safe and reliable operation of the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. This program applies to all activities affecting the safety related functions of the structures, systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the con-sequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue risk .to the health and safety of the public. These quality affecting activities include operating, maintaining, repair-ing, refueling and modifying. | |||
The basic Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation quality assurance policy is established by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer in his Corporate State-ment of Quality Assurance Policy. This policy is imple-mented by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production through the Quality Assurance Coordinator and the Ginna Station Superintendent. | |||
The program is governed by a Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual which contains the requirements and assignment of responsibilities for implementation of the program. The manual is. prepared, reviewed, and maintained by Quality Assurance and approved by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production. | |||
IV-1 Revision 2 November 1, 1974 | |||
The program is implemented through Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Engineering, and Purchasing Procedures. | |||
These procedures are prepared and approved by the responsible organization (i.e., Quality Assurance, Opera-tions, Engineering, and Purchasing) and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. The procedures are contained in separate manuals maintained by the responsible organization. All these procedures are reviewed for adequacy at least,,once every two years by the responsible organization. Table IV.1-1 provides a listing of the subjects and a short description of the subject matter which is contained in the procedures. | |||
Organizational interfaces are defined and controlled by sections of the Quality Assurance Manual. Organizational responsibilities are described in Section IV.2. | |||
The quality assurance program covers all existing Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components, including their foundations and supports. Activities affecting the quality of these structures, systems, and components are controlled to an extent consistent with their importance to safety. A detailed listing of the structures, systems, IV-2 Revision 2 November 1, 1974 | |||
S. i and components covered by, the quality assurance program, based on Section 1.2.1 of the Final Facility Description and Safety Analysis Report, is contained in the Quality Assurance Manual. | |||
The | Details of the system boundaries and the quality classifi-cation of water-and-steam-containing components are con-tained on system Slow drawings. The listing of structures, systems, and components covered by the quality assurance program and 'the system flow drawings are prepared and maintained by Engineering and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. | ||
Modifications or additions to existing structures, systems, and components are designated the same seismic classifica-tion as the existing system. New structures, systems, and components are designated a seismic classification in accordance with the guidelines in USAEC Regulatory Guide 1.29. | |||
IV- | Supervisory personnel are indoctrinated in quality assurance policies, manuals, and procedures to assure they understand that these are mandatory requirements which must be imple-mented and enforced. Personnel responsible for performing activities 'affecting quality are trained and indoctrinated in the requirements, purpose, scope, and implementation of quality related manuals and procedures. Refresher sessions IV-3 Revision 2 November 1, 1974 | ||
are held periodically and retraining is required whenever a new procedure is issued or a major revision is made to an existing procedure. Training of personnel not in the quality assurance organization is the responsibility of each department performing an activity affecting quality. | |||
Quality Assurance assists in establishing training re-quirements and assures that personnel are trained by auditing training records. | |||
In addition to training in quality assurance, each department conducts on-the-job training to assure that personnel are qualified for their primary work assignments. | |||
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for the formal training, qualification, licensing, and requali-fication of operators, as necessary. Where necessary, personnel are trained in radiation protection, plant safety and security. | |||
The Nuclear Safety Audit and Review Board is required to review the status and adequacy of the quality assurance program at least once every two years to assure that it is meaningful and is effectively complying with corporate policy and 10CFR50, Appendix B. This review consists of audits or a review equivalent to an audit performed by company personnel or outside consultants. Reviews will be conducted every six months during the first two years that the program is implemented. | |||
The quality assurance program is designed to meet the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, Appendix B, "Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants." The program con-forms to the following AEC Regulatory Guides and ANSI Standards: | |||
Training | a ~ AEC Regulatory Guide 1.8, "Personnel Selection f | ||

All procurement is conducted in accordance with procurement documents as stated in Section IV-4. All reviews, inspections, surveillances, and audits are conducted by personnel who are competent in establishing whether or not a supplier: is capable of providing acceptable, quality products. | |||
Suppliers must be on an approved suppliers'ist prior to being issued a purchase order. Supplier evaluations are performed by Quality Assurance, Engineering, Purchasing, and/or Ginna Station, as necessary, for the item or service involved. The depth of the supplier evaluation varies depending on the complexity and importance to safety of the item involved. For example, for mass produced or off-the-shelf items, only a check of past performance may be necessary. On the other hand, for complex, important. items a very thorough review is performed. | |||

Quality Control is responsible for receipt inspection upon delivery at the plant of material, equipment, and associated services for operation, maintenance, repair, modifications, and refueling. This inspection includes the use of written procedures or checklists to verify that the material, equipment, and services conform to the procurement documents (if this has not been performed by source inspections) and that documentary evidence of con-formance is available at the plant prior to installation or use. Documentary evidence sufficient to identify the codes, standards, or specifications met by the purchased material, equipment, and services is retained. In the event a final source inspection is conducted prior to the arrival at the plant, Quality Control performs an in-spection for shipping damage or lost parts and a document check to assure that the required documentation has been reviewed and is complete. A receiving inspection checklist is completed for all items received to document the extent of the inspection performed, including the documents checked, h | |||
and the inspection results. | |||
IV- | If the item and documentation are adequate, Quality Control labels the item as "Accepted", files the documentation and, receipt inspection results, and returns the item to the station stockroom. If the item is nonconforming or the IV-27 | ||

3.5.2 In the event the number of channels of a particular sub-system in service falls below the limit given by the columns entitled Minimum Operable Channels and/or Minimum Degree of Redundancy cannot be achieved, opera-tion shall be limited according to the requirement shown in Column 6 of Tables 3.S-1 through 3.5-3.
3.5.3 The radioactive effluent monitoring instrumentation shown in Table 3.5-4 shall be operable with alarm/trip setpoints set to ensure that the limits of Specifica-tions 3.9.1.1 and 3.9.2.1 are not exceeded.
3.S.3.1 If a radioactive effluent monitoring instrumentation alarm/trip setpoint, is less conservative than required, immediately suspend the release of effluents. monitored by the affected channel or declare the channel inoperable.

exceeding established limits. Safety is not compromised, however, by continuing operation with certain instru-mentation channels out, of service since provisions were made for this in the plant design. This specification outlines limiting conditions for operation necessary to preserve the effectiveness of the reactor control and protection system when any one or more of the channels is out of service.
Almost all reactor protection channels are supplied with sufficient redundancy to provide the capability for channel calibration and test at power. Exceptions are backup channels such as reactor coolant pump breakers.
The removal, of one trip channel is accomplished by placing that channel bistable in a tripped mode; e.g.,
a two-out-of-three circuit becomes a one-out-of-two circuit. .Testing does not trip the system unless a trip condition exists in a concurrent channel.

Basis Iiguid wastes from the Radioactive Waste Disposal System are diluted in the Circulating Water System discharge prior to release to the lake. With two pumps operating, the capacity of the Circulating Water System is 400,000 gpm. Operation of a single circulating water pump reduces the nominal flow rate by about 50%.
The circulating water flow under various operating conditions has been calculated from the head differential across the pumps and the manufacturer's head-capacity curves. Because of the low radioactivity levels in the circulating water discharge, the concentration of liquid radioactive effluents at. this point will not be measured directly. The concentration in the circulating water discharge will be calculate'd from the measured concentration in the Waste Condensate Tank, the flow 3.9-7
1' rate of the Waste Condensate Pumps, and the flow in the Circulating Water System. Radioactive effluents released to unrestricted areas on the basis of gross beta analysis are based on the assumption that I-129 and 'radium are not present,. Accordingly, Appendix B, Table II, Column H
2 of 10CFR20 will permit a concentration up to 1 x 10 uCi/ml in the circulating water discharge. If the con-centration of liquid wastes in the circulating water discharge equals NPC as specified, the average concentra-tion at the intake of the nearest, public water supply at Ontario, New York, would be well below NPC.
Thus, discharge of liquid wastes at. the specified maximum concentrations will not result in significant exposure to members of the public as a result of consump-tion of drinking water from the lake, even if the effects of potable water treatment systems on reducing radioactive concentration of the water supply are neglected.
The concentration limit for noble gases is based upon the assumption that. Xe-135 is the controlling radio-isotope and its NPC in air was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using ICRP Publication 2 method-ology.

CFR Part 20 for unrestricted areas. The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an unrestricted area, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)). For individuals who may at, times be within the site boundary, these occupancy times will be sufficiently small to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the site, boundary.
Specification 3.9.2.2 is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B, II.C, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I. The limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I. The Specifications provide the required operating flexibility and at, the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I.
The requirement that the appropriate portions of the gaseous radwaste treatment system and the ventilation exhaust treatment system be used when specified provides reasonable assurance that. the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This specification implements 3.9-10
the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part, 50, and design objective Section II.D of Appendix I. The limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents.
A dose projection which exceeds the stated limit does not necessarily imply that all portions of the gaseous and ventilation exhaust treatment. systems be used because certain subsystems may have minimal effect on reducing doses.
Specification 3.9.2.4 is provided to meet, the reporting requirements of 40 CFR 190. Since the plant is well removed from other fuel cycle facilities, it, is suffi-cient to apply the Specification only to the plant.
Specification =-3.9.2.5 is provided to ensure that the concentration of potentially explosive gas mixtures contained in the gas decay tanks are maintained below the flammability limit of oxygen. Naintaining the concentration of oxygen below its flammability limits provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials will be controlled in conformance with the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

Basis The radiological monitoring program required by this specification provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest
'I potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least three years. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.
Specification 3.15.2 is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census.

A land use census shall be conducted annually (between June 1 and October 1).
Basis The environmental survey has been designed to utilize the knowledge about dilution in the atmosphere and in the lake which has been gained during the pre-operational and operational period of study.
The radiological monitoring program provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those pathways and for those radionuclides which 'xposure lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the 4.10-1

The detection capabilities required by Table 4.10-1 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. The specified lower limits of detection for I-131 in water, milk, and other food products correspond to approximately one-quarter of the Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 design objective dose-equivalent of 15 mrem/year for atmospheric releases and 10 mrem/year for liquid releases to the maximally exposed organ and individual.

.the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma-ray spectrometry, the background shall include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples. Typical values of E, V, Y and ht should be used in the calculation.
4.12-6
The background count rate is calculated from the background counts that are determined to be within + one FWHN energy band about the energy of the gamma ray peak used for the quantitative analysis for this radionuclide.
f @*5~(f It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability fact) limit for a particular measurement.
h Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions. Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidably small sample sizes, the presence of interferring nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable. When circumstances result in LLDs higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent, Report.
For certain radionuclides with low gamma yield or low energies, or for certain radionuclide mixtures, it may not be possible to measure radionuclides in concentrations near the LLD.
Under these circumstances, the LLD may be increased inversely propoPionally .to the magnitude of the gamma yield (i.e., 5 x 10 /I, where I is the photon abundance expressed as a decimal fraction), but in no case shall the LLD, as calculated in this manner for a specific radionuclide, be greater than 10% of the NPC value specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix 8, Table II, Column II.
A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste dis-charged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released.
The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides:
Nn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Cs-134, Cs-137, and Ce-141. This list does not mean that, only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should be reported as less than the LLD and should not be reported as being present at the LLD level. The less than values should not be used in the required dose calculations. When unusual circumstances result in LLD's higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

effluents have been developed based upon NRC guidance provided in Effluent Technical S ecifications for PWRs. The NRC gul.dance has een adapted to a format su>.table or inclusion in the Ginna Technical Specifications and changes have been made,to account for the Ginna facility design. The proposal includes requirements to ensure compliance with 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 and 40 CFR 190.
Effluent monitors are provided to aid in ensuring that the limits of 10 CFR Part 20 are met. The allowance for inoperability is generally consistent with the NRC guidance and requires that sampling of effluents be performed in case a monitor is required but inoperable. Instead of shutting down the plant if the oxygen monitor is inoperable, samples will be taken at short intervals.
This is preferred since a plant shutdown would result. in a sig-nificant amount of waste gas which would have to be handled during a time at which it may be desirable to minimize gas handling.
4 Limiting 0onditions for operation to implement, 10 CFR Parts 20 and 50 have been developed following NRC guidance. For un-planned gaseous releases, a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> averaging is permitted in determining compliance with 10 CFR Part 20. This is acceptable based on the definitions within Part 20 and based upon effluent surveillance instrumentation analysis schedules. Radwaste treat-ment equipment will be operated, as appropriate, to limit potential doses due to plant effluents. Portions or all of the radwaste treatment systems are required to be operated should the projected doses otherwise exceed preestablished values.
No limits have been proposed for contents of the gas decay tanks. This due to the fact that any credible quantity of waste gas in any single tank will be well below the quantity which would have to be released to yield a site boundary dose of 0.5 Rem, even with accident, meteorology. Specifically, FSAR Section 14.2.3 reports a reactor coolant system inventory of equivalent xenon assuming no release over a full core cycle and one percent failed fuel as 46,000 Curies. Using the equations presented in
. NUREG-0133, one finds that a release of approximately 100,000 Curies is necessary to yield a site boundary dose of 0.5 Rem.
This assumes that accident meteorology is used instead of annual average meteorology, which seems more appropriate and would provide even greater margins.
An environmental monitoring program is reestablished based on NRC guidance. Samples are collected and analyzed at intervals throughout the year with sampling being conducted at a reduced level during the winter. This reduction is acceptable based on the fact that food pathways are either absent or of reduced con-sequences in the winter.

Radiation monitoring instrumentation used for effluent.
surveillance has been removed from Table 4.1-1 and placed in Table 4.1-3. In Table 4.1-1, the emergency plan instruments will be calibrated annually instead of at refueling intervals. This will allow calibration to be performed at times other than the refueling outage..
In Table 4.1-3, channel calibration is to be performed annually instead of at, refueling intervals. This is to avoid the necessity to calibrate during refueling outages. If the NRC intends the interval "R" to imply every 18 months independent. of the refueling outage, we request that. that be the calibration interval listed as refueling.
Environmental surveillance requirements are consistent with NRC guidance.
Effluent surveillance is presented in Section 4.12. Batch releases are sampled as shown in Table 4.12-1. Since compliance with 10 CFR Part 20 may be shown through a gross beta analysis, this is permitted.
A composite sample analyzed for principal gamma emitters and I-131 will provide the information required for dose calculations.
For the purposes of this Specification, release of the neutraliz-ing tank to the retention tank is considered a batch release. No additional sampling is required of the retention tank since its major input is the neutralizing tank. (Small sources, in terms of radioactivity, include floor drains in non contaminated areas.)
The retention tank discharge is activated on high level in the tank and is through a radiation monitor.
Waste treatment systems considered in the evaluation which was performed pursuant. to Appendix I are listed in Section 5.5.
Under audits, the change in the insurance brokerage firm from NELPIA to ANI is reflected. This is purely an administra-tive change.
The Offsite Dose Calculation Nanual is presently in draft form. Revisions to the draft, are being considered based upon revised guidance provided by the NRC letter dated January 18, 1979, which was received February 2, 1979.
Specifications for solid radwaste have not been proposed since they are unrelated to Appendix I or to Part. 20. In addi-tion, they appear to be based on Standards which are still in draft form. Also, although solid wastes generated by Ginna Station comply with 'current regulations, they do not, meet the Specifications suggested by the NRC. Finally, an industry task force is being established under the auspices of AIF to develop requirements appropriate for currently operating plants and equipment and consistent, with the regulations. Pending the outcome of the study, Specifications.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM FOR STATION OPERATION Qualit Assurance Pro ram The quality assurance program described in this Supplement has been developed by the Rochester Gas and Electric Cor-poration to assure safe and reliable operation of the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. This program applies to all activities affecting the safety related functions of. the structures, systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue risk to the health and safety of the public. ,These quality affecting activities include operation, maintenance, repair, inservice inspection, refueling, modification, test and inspection. In addition, the quality assurance program applies to the activities associated with the packaging of licensed radioactive materials to be shipped in accordance with 10 CFR Part, 71.
The basic Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation quality assurance policy is established by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer in his Corporate Statement of Quality Assurance Policy. This policy is implemented by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production, through the Manager, Quality Assurance, and the Ginna Station Superintendent.
The'rogram is governed by a Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual whi'ch contains the requirements and assignment of responsibilities for implementation of the program. The manual is prepared, reviewed, and maintained by Quality Assurance and approved by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production.
The program is implemented through Quality Assurance, Ginna Station, Engineering, General Maintenance, Electric Meter and Laboratory and Purchasing Procedures. These procedures are prepared and approved by the responsible organization and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. The p'rocedures are contained in separate manuals maintained by the responsible organization. All these procedures are reviewed for adequacy at least once every two years by the responsible organization. Table IV.l-l provides a listing of the subjects and a short description of the subject matter which is contained in the procedures.
Organizational interfaces are defined and controlled by sections of the Quality Assurance Manual. Organizational responsibilities are described in Section IV.2.
The quality assurance program covers all existing Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components, including their foundations and supports. Activities. affecting the quality of these structures, systems, and components are IV-1 Revision 4 December 1978
II controlled to an extent consistent'ith their importance to safety. A detailed lists.ng of the structures, systems, and components covered by the quality assurance program, based on Section 1.2.1 of the Final Facility Description and Safety Analysis Report, is contained in the Quality Assur-ance Manual.
Details of the system boundaries and the quality classi-fication of water-and-steam-containing components are con-tained on system flow drawings. The listing of structures, systems, and components -covered by the quality assurance program and the system flow drawings are prepared and main-tained by Engineering and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. r Modifications or additions to existing, structures, systems, and components are designated the same seismic classifica-tion as the existing system. New structures, systems, and components are designated a seismic classification in accordance with the 'guidelines in USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.29.
Supervisory personnel are indoctrinated in quality assurance policies, manuals, and procedures to assure they understand that these are mandatory requirements which must be imple-mented and enforced. Personnel responsible for performing activities affecting quality are trained and indoctrinated in the requirements, purpose, scope, and implementation of quality related manuals and procedures. Refresher sessions are held periodically and retraining is required whenever a new procedure is issued or a major revision is made to an existing procedure. Training of personnel not in the quality assurance organization is the responsibility of each department performing an activity affecting quality.

Control of Purchased Material E ui ment and Services Procurement documents, supplier selection, planning for item or service acceptance control of supplier performance and acceptance of items and services are five major means used in controlling purchased material, equipment and services.
All procurement is conducted in accordance with procurement documents as stated in Section IV-4. All reviews, inspec-tions, surveillances, and audits are conducted by personnel who are competent in establishing whether or not a supplier is capable of providing acceptable, quality products.
Procurement planning is utilized by the procuring organiza-tions for determining the methods to be used for acceptance of the item or service as well as requirements for the control of the supplier performance. Source inspection (surveillance) certificate of conformance, receipt inspection and post instal-lation test are methods which are considered for item acceptance with receipt inspection utilized in the acceptance of all items.
In lieu of these methods, acceptance of services is based on either or a combination of: (1) surveillance of the activity and (2) review of objective evidence for conformance to the procurement document requirements (i.e. certifications, stress reports etc.). The extent of the acceptance methods and as-sociated verification activities will vary and be a function of the relative importance and complexity of the purchased item or service and the suppliers past performance.
Consideration for the control of supplier performance includes 5 the necessity for document submittals or surveillance, and under what situation the supplier is to report nonconformances.
Results of the planning are incorporated in the procurement documents and or on the attached procurement control form as described in Section IV.4.
Selection of a supplier is based on the evaluation of its capability to provide the item or services in accordance with the requirements of the procurement documents. The evaluation which is accomplished during the procurement planning, deter-:
mines the necessity for the'upplier selection to be from the approved suppliers list maintained by Purchasing. Purchasing utilizes the approved suppliers list for the selection source of those suppliers required to have a satisfactory quality assurance program. The evaluation guidelines for source se-lection considers the item complexity, method(s) of acceptance and for a replacement item, if the source is to be restricted to the original supplier. For engineered and off-the-shelf items, procured from suppliers required to have a quality assurance program and for which item acceptance is based other than on receipt inspection, supplier selection is from the approved suppliers list or one who is in the process of being added to the list, after having had its capability evaluated Revision 5 si April 1979

to purchaser satisfaction. Other off-the-shelf items, that are manufactured to industry standards, that are typically utilized in applications other than nuclear, and for which item acceptance is based exclusively on receipt inspection may be purchased from sources other than the approved suppliers list. These other sources may include the manufacturer of the replacement part, authorized distributor for the manufacturer's replacement parts and distributor of catalog items which satisfy the guidelines of not requiring status on the approved suppliers list. Departmental procedures establish guidelines for source selection evaluations and for documenting the results on the procurement control form through, indication of the corresponding procurement method. The purchase requisition will also identify the source when replacement parts are to be procured from the original equipment supplier.
Addition of a supplier to the approved suppliers list is based on satisfactory evaluation of the supplier's capability by Quality Assurance, Purchasing and other departments, as appropriate.
For Engineered items, Engineering is responsible for evalu-4I ating 'the overall d'esign or manufacturing capability of the supplier including his particular technical ability to produce the design, service, item, or component delineated in the procurement documents. As part of this review, the supplier's design capabilities, machinery capabilities, handling capabilities, testing facilities, service capabili-ties, and experience are reviewed.
Quality Assurance is responsible for, evaluating the supplier's overall quality assurance organization and program in accordance with applicable codes, standards, applicable parts of 10CFR50 Appendix B, and Rochester Gas and Electric requirements.
The review includes consideration of: company organization, quality assurance personnel qualifications, review and control of design documents, manufacturing procedures, quality assurance procedures, calibration practices, accept-ance criteria, 'required quality assurance records and their retention, and quality assurance, requirements and controls imposed by the supplier on his subcontractors. Supplier evaluation is conducted by means of procedures or checklists which identify applicable regulatory or code quality assur-ance requirements.
4( Ginna Station, General Maintenance, Quality Assurance and Electric Meter and Laboratory evaluate the suppliers of inspection, test, and calibration services which they intend S n/ to use.
The departments responsible for performing supplier evalu-ations shall document -their results in reports which discuss areas investigated, findings, and conclusions. As applicable, concurrence of Purchasing, Engineering, Quality Assurance, I

I Ginna Station, General Maintenance, Electric Meter and 4I Laboratory and Fuel Planning is required to place a supplier 3 on the qualified suppliers'ist. One organization can remove a supplier from the list without concurrence of the others.
Measures are established by Engineering and Quality Assurance to control supplier performance for engineered items. These measures typically include the processing of change infor-mation, surveillance of supplier activities and the control of documents exchanged with the supplier. In addition, each department procuring off-the-shelf items or services establishes similar measures for the control of supplier performance. With the exception of processing change information, the need for and applicable extent of purchaser controls of the supplier are determined during procurement planning.
Quality Assurance is responsible for determining and document-ing the degree of supplier surveillance (including review, inspection, or audit) required during design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and shipping, and for providing the required surveillance. The objective of supplier surveil-lance is to provide a sampling review of the supplier's quality assurance program implementation and of product conformance with respect to the purchase order requirements.
For complex engineered items, Quality Assurance and Engi-neering are responsible for joint development of surveillance plans in advance of surveillance trips to identify areas to be reviewed.
T he results of the surveillance trip are documented by means of inspection sheets or trip reports which are distributed 3 to the Manager, Quality Assurance, and the department which initiated the procurement. When a deviation from purchase order requirements is noted, the Quality Assurance represen-tative has the authority to inform the vendor that a particular item is unacceptable, to issue a nonconformance report, or to stop work, if necessary.
4IGinna Station Quality Control is responsible for surveillance of site contractors to assure that they meet all technical and quality requirements. The reporting and documenting of contractor surveillance is managed in a manner similar to supplier surveillance.
The verification methods for the acceptance of items and services. are specified on the attached procurement control form during procurement planning and the purchase requisition preparation.
Department superintendents are responsible for receiving and storing items pending their acceptance. Upon receipt, the IV-16 Revision 5 April 1979

department stockkeeper logs the item, places a "hold" tag on the item, and notifies Quality Control that the item has arrived.
Quality Control is responsible for receipt inspection upon de 1 ivery of items and associated services for maintenance, 3
repair, modification, and refueling. This inspection in-cludes the use of written procedures or checklists to verify that the items and services conform to the procurement docu-ments (if this has not been performed by source inspections) and that, documentary evidence of conformance is available at the plant prior to installation or use. Documentary evidence sufficient to identify the codes, standards or specifications met by the purchased material, equipment, and services is retained. In the event a final source inspection for the
~
4 acceptance is conducted prior to receipt by RGGE, Quality
~
Control performs an inspection for shipping damage or lost parts and a document check to assure that the required docu-mentation has been reviewed and is complete. A receiving inspection checklist is completed for all items received to document the extent of the inspection performed, including the documents checked, and the inspection results.
If the item and documentation are adequate, Quality Control labels the item as "Accepted," files the documentation and receipt inspection results, and releases the item for storage or use. If the item is nonconforming or the documentation 4[pIis unsatisfactory, Quality Control initiates a nonconformance report which is controlled in accordance with Section IV.15.
n All items issued must bear an acceptance tag and have docu-mentation to support the acceptability of the item. In the event the traceability is lost or the documentation review is unsatisfactory, the item becomes nonconforming and may not be released for use.
IV. 8 Identification and Control of Materials Parts and The identification and control of materials, parts, and components is accomplished in accordance with written requirements and applies to material, parts, or components in any stage of fabrication, storage, or installation.

I I QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM FOR STATION OPERATION Qualit Assurance Pro ram The quality assurance program described in this Supplement has been developed by the Rochester Gas and Electric Corpora-tion to assure safe and reliable operation of the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. This program applies to all activities affecting the safety related functions of the structures, systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the con-sequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue
, risk to the health and safety of the public. These quality affecting activities include operating, maintaining, repair-ing, refueling, and modifying.
The basic Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation quality assurance policy is established by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer in his Corporate State-ment of Quality Assurance Policy. This policy is imple-mented by the Senior Vice President, Electric and Steam through the Quality Assurance Coordinator and the Ginna Station Superintendent.
The program is governed by a Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual which contains the requirements and assignment of responsibilities for implementation of the program. The manual is developed and maintained by the Quality Assurance Coordinator and reviewed and approved
>>I by the Senior Vice President, Electric and Steam.
The program is implemented through Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Engineering, and Purchasing Pro-cedures. .These procedures are developed by the responsible organization (i.e., Quality Assurance, Operations, Engineer-ing, and Purchasing) and reviewed and approved by the Quality Assurance Coordinator. The procedures are contained in separate manuals maintained by the responsible organization.
All these procedures are reviewed for adequacy at least once every two years by the responsible organization. Table IV.
1-.1 provides a listing of the subjects and a short descrip-tion of the subject matter which is contained in the pro-cedures.
Organizational interfaces are defined and controlled by sections of the Quality Assurance Manual. Organizational responsibilities are described in Section IV.2.
The quality assurance program covers all existing Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components, including their foundations and supports. Activities, affecting the quality of these structures, systems, and components are controlled to an extent consistent with their importance to safety. A detailed listing of the structures, systems, IV-2
I and components covered by'he quality assurance program, based on Section 1.2.1 of the Final Facility Description and Safety Analysis Report, is contained in the Quality Assurance Manual.
Details of the system boundaries and the quality classifica-I tion of water-and-steam-containing components are contained on system flow drawings. The listing of structures, systemsi and components covered by the quality assurance program D
and the system flow drawings are prepared and maintained by Engineering t and reviewed and approved by Quality Assurance.
Modifications or additions to existing structures, systems, and components are designated the same seismic classifica-tion as the existing system. New structures, systems, and components are designated a seismic classification in accordance with the guidelines in USAEC Regulatory Guide 1.29.
Supervisory personnel are indoctrinated in quality assurance policies, manuals, and procedures to assure they understand that these are mandatory requirements which must be imple-mented and enforced. Personnel responsible for performing activities affecting quality are trained and indoctrinated in the requirements, purpose, scope, and implementation of quality related manuals and procedures. Refresher sessions XV-3
0 are held periodically and retraining is required whenever a new procedure is issued or a major revision is made to an existing procedure. Training of personnel not in the quality assurance organization is the responsibility of each department performing an activity affecting quality.
Quality Assurance assists in establishing training re-quirements and assures that personnel are trained by auditing training records.
In addition to training in quality assurance, each department conducts on-the-job training to assure that personnel are qualified for their primary work assignments.
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for the formal training, qualification, licensing, and requali-I fication of operators, as necessary. Where necessary, personnel are trained in radiation protection, plant safety and security.
The Nuclear Safety Audit and Review Board is required to review the status and adequacy of the quality assurance program at least once every two years to assure that it is meaningful and is effectively complying with corporate policy and 10CFR50, Appendix B. 'his review consists of audits or a review equivalent to an audit performed by company personnel or outside consultants. Reviews will be conducted every six months during the first two years, that the program is implemented.

The Vice President and Chief Engineer is responsible for the design and control of design activities (including design interfaces) for the modification of structures,
'f systems, or components.
Design control is implemented by means of engineering procedures which include: design considerations; design review requirements; internal and external interface
I control considerations; design document review, approval distribution, control, and revision requirements; and corrective action. Design considerations include, as appropriate: physics, stress, materials, thermal, hydraulic, radiation and accident analysis; appropriate design bases, codes, standaxds and regulations; acceptance and rejection criteria; and quality assurance requirements.
Design verification utilizes various methods such as formal design reviews, alternate calculations, or tests as ap-pxopxiate to assure the adequacy of the design.
The design of plant modifications's reviewed by an, engineer other than the one who performed the original design. This may be done by Rochester Gas and Electric design engineers or consulting engineers as required. The design also is reviewed by the Plant Operations Review Committee for acceptability for operation, maintenance, and repair.
Spare or replacement parts must at least meet the original equipment technical and quality requirements. For plant I
modifications, standard "off the shelf" commercial or previously approved materials, parts, and equipment are selected and reviewed for suitability of application by 1
the design engineer.
XV-l3
\
Design changes, j.ncluding field changes, are reviewed and approved in accordance with the same procedures as the original design. In general, design changes are reviewed and approved by the organizations 'or individuals that performed the original design, review, and approval. Where this is not practical, other responsible design organizations or individuals are designated, provided they have access to pertinent background information and are competent in the specific design area.
Design documents are collected, stored, and maintained in accordance with Section IV.l7. Design documents in-elude design criteria, analyses, specifications, drawings, design review records, and changes thereto.
The Quality Assurance Coordinator is responsible for assuring that design control procedures, whether the work is done by Rochester Gas and Electric or by other organizations, are prepared and implemented and incorporate appropriate design control practices, checks, and re-views. Design control procedures are reviewed to assure that an independent design verification is performed; The Vice President and Chief Engineer is responsible for the timely approval and updating of specifications and drawings, as well as changes or deviations thereto, IV-14
utilized for purchase or installation of materials, parts, or components. Any other design documents, specifi-cations, drawings, installation requirements, and changes thereto, are approved in the same manner.
Errors and deficiencies detected in the design process are documented as conditions adverse to quality and con-trolled in accordance with the corrective action require-ments of Section IV.16.
Design criteria and specifications, and changes thereto, are reviewed by Quality Assurance for the inclusion of quality assurance and quality control program require-ments as well as for the use of proper codes, material specifications, regulatory requirements, design bases, and quality standards. The Quality Assurance Coordinator reviews and approves any deviations from quality standards when .they occur.
Plant modifications are controlled by means of applicable quality assurance and quality control procedures. These procedures provide for the preparation, review, and.
approval of design documents, safety analyses, and plant modification procedures. Proposed plant modifications are= reviewed by the Plant Operations Review Committee and Nuclear Safety Audit and Review Board as required by Section 6.0, Technical Specifications.
Procurement Document Control Procurement document control applies to the control of procurement documents for materials, parts, components, and services required to perform quality affecting activities. Such documents may be prepared by Rochester Gas and Electric or by a contractor and include purchase requisitions, purchase orders, service agreements, con-tracts, specifications, and drawings.
Procurement of materials, parts, components, and services is initiated by Ginna Station or Engineering Department staff personnel. Procurement procedures require that organizations preparing procurement documents consider and include, as appropriate, the items listed in Table IV.4-1.
Procurement documents, including those requesting spare or replacement parts, initiated at Ginna Station are re-viewed for concurrence by Quality Control and approved by the Ginna Station Superintendent or his designated representative. Procurement documents initiated in Engineering are reviewed for concurrence by Quality Assurance and approved by the- Vice President and Chief Engineer or his designated representative.
Evidence of review and approval of procurement documents is recorded on the 'documents or on the attached *control IV-16
1 form. These documents are maintained in Purchasing and plant records.
After purchase requisitions, service'greements, contracts, specifications, and drawings have received the required reviews and approvals, a purchase order is issued to a qualified supplier and controlled as described in Section IV.7. Under no circumstances are purchasing requirements altered (except for quantity or pricing) during order placement unless review and concurrence is obtained from those who were required to review, concur with, and approve the original documents as described above.
Engineering review of procurement documents includes verification of appropriate classifications, technical requirements, and code application. Quality Assurance review of the above includes checks to verify that proper codes, regulatory requirements, and material specifications are invoked; that FSAR and Technical Supplement commit-ments are included; that ppropriate acceptance or rejection criteria are required; and that quality assurance require-'ents are incorporated. Quality Control reviews procure-ment documents for spare or replacement parts for adequacy IV-17
of quality requirements and to determine similarity, compatibility, and the inclusion of the quality require-ments and acceptance criteria of the original design.
Instructions, Procedures, and Drawin s Each Rochester Gas and Electric organization is re-sponsible for developing, reviewing, approving, and implementing procedures as required to implement the quality assurance program. These procedures cover activities such as document control, training of per-sonnel, and responsibilities and duties of personnel.
The Quality Assurance Coordinator is responsible for the review and approval of these procedures. Table IV.l-l provides a summary of the subject matter contained in the procedures which are used to implement the quality assurance program. Procurement documents require suppliers and contractors to have appropriate instructions, procedures, specifications, and drawings.
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for pre-paring, reviewing, approving, and implementing instructions and procedures associated with operation, maintenance, repair, refueling, and modification. This includes in-structions and procedures listed in USAEC Regulatory Guide l.33 for administrative control; general plant operation; startup, operation, and shutdown of safety IV-18
related systems; correction of abnormal, offnormal, or alarm conditions; combat of emergencies and other sig-nificant events; radioactivity control; control of measuring and test equipment; chemical and radiochemical control; and fuel handling and refueling. He is'lso responsible for the issuance of appropriate changes to such documents upon receipt of regulatory directives, instructions from Rochester Gas and Electric management, or the completion of plant modifications.
The Plant Operations Review Committee has the responsibility for reviewing procedures prior to their approval by the Ginna Station Superintendent as required by the Section 6.0, Technical Specifications.
Quality Control is responsible for reviewing plant ad-ministrative, operating, maintenance, repair, refueling, and modification procedures prior to use to assure quality assurance req'uirements are included.
The Vice President and Chief Engineer is responsible for preparing, reviewing, approving and issuing specifications, drawings, and installation requirements associated with plant modifications. These documents require those per-forming the work to obtain, understand, and comply with appropriate instructions, procedures, specifications,
and drawings. The Vice President and Chief Engineer has established procedures for maintaining drawings and I
specifications in a current status. These procedures cover updating of as-built drawings after plant modifi-cations and the revision, approval, distribution, and control of all drawings and specifications.
Quality Assurance is responsible for the review of design criteria and specifications, and changes thereto, for concurrence with quality assurance'requirements.
The Ginna I Station Quality Control Engineer is responsible for preparing and implementing plant quality control procedures. The procedures require the approval of the Quality Assurance Coordinator and the Ginna Station Superintendent.
Persons preparing and approving documents are. responsible for assuring that specifications, instructions, pro-cedures, and drawings include'ppropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomp-lished and assuring that the documents are kept current.
Surveillance of the implementation of instructions, drawings, and procedures for operation, maintenance, XV-20
repair, modification, and refueling is the responsibility of the Ginna Station Quality Control Engineer.
Document Control Procedures are established to control the issuance of procedures, instructions, drawings, and specifications.
Standard document, control requirements are contained in the Quality Assurance Manual. The Ginna Station Superin-tendent is responsible for the control of,all documents issued at Ginna Station. Engineering is responsible for the control of all documents issued by Engineering, Quality Assurance, and Purchasing. Engineering and Operations have separa'te procedures to control documents in accordance with the requirements of the Quality Assurance Manual.
The Quality Assurance Manual requires that documents be controlled as appropriate, considering the type of document involved, its importance to safety, and the intended use of the document. It specifies the types of documents which must be controlled; identifies the difference between controlled and uncontrolled copies of the same document; includes the method for identifying holders of controlled copies; requires that only controlled copies of a document be used for official purposes; requires that lists of effective revisions be issued periodically; requires lists IV-21
of document.'olders to be maintained by the distributors; and requires that distributors transmit controlled documents using approved forms internally and externally. Types of documents which are controlled include Technical Specifications, FSAR, Technical Supplements, Quality Assurance Manual, procedures (such as, quality assurance, engineering, purchasing, repair, maintenance, test, calibration, fuel handling, modification, and administrative), specifications, drawings, and nonconformance and corrective action docu-mentation. Suppliers of materials, equipment, and services are required in procurement documents to provide for control of documents, including manufacturing inspection and test-ing instructions.
The Quality Assurance Manual further requires that each organization provide in its procedures for measures: to insure that documents are available when required; to properly review and approve documents such as procedures, instructions, specifications, and drawings; to provide the same reviews and approvals for changes to documents as was required of the original document; to require that organizations which review and approve documents have access to pertinent information and adequate knowledge of the original document intent; to assure that approved changes are promptly transmitted for incorporation IV-22
into documents; and to assure that obsolete or superseded documents are eliminated from the system and not used.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control are responsible for review and concurrence of procurement documents and, therefore, procurement document control requirements.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control are further re-sponsible for review, inspection, surveillance, and audit, as appropriate, of document control systems to assure adequate systems are implemented.
Control of Purchased Ma't'erial',' ui ment, and Services Procurement documents, supplier selection, supplier sur-veillance, and receipt inspection are the four major means used in controlling purchased material, equipment, components, and services. All procurement is conducted in accordance with procurement documents as stated in Section IV-4. All reviews, inspections, surveillances, and audits are conducted by personnel who are competent in establishing whether or not a supplier is capable of providing acceptable, quality products.
Suppliers must be on an approved suppliers'ist prior to being issued,a purchase order. Supplier evaluations are conducted by a team consisting of qualified personnel IV-23
from Quality Assurance, Engineering, Purchasing, and other interested parties or their representatives as re-quired. The depth of the supplier evaluation varies depending on the complexity and importance to safety of the item involved. For example, for mass produced or off-the-shelf items, only a check of past performance may be necessary. On the other hand, for complex, im-portant items a very thorough review is performed.
Engineering is responsible for evaluating the overall design or manufacturing capability of the supplier in-eluding his particular technical ability to produce the design, service, item, or component delineated in the procurement documents. As part of this review, the supplier's design capabilities, machinery capabili-ties, special fabrication processes, output capabilities, handling capabilities, testing facilities, service capabilities, and experience are reviewed.
Quality Assurance is responsible for evaluating the supplier's overall quality assurance organization and program in accordance with applicable codes, standards, applicable parts of 10CFR50 Appendix B, and Rochester Gas and Electric requirements. The review includes consideration of: company organization, quality assurance
personnel qualifications, review and control of design documents, manufacturing procedures, quality assurance procedures, calibration practices, acceptance criteria, required quality assurance records and their retention, and quality assurance requirements and controls im-posed by the supplier on his subcontractors. Supplier evaluation is conducted by means of procedures or checklists which identify applicable regulatory or code quality assurance requirements.
Quality Assurance and Engineering document their supplier evaluation results in reports which discuss areas in-vestigated, findings, and conclusions. Concurrence of Purchasing, Engineering, Operations, and Quality Assurance is required to place a supplier on the qualified suppliers list. One organization can remove a supplier from the list without concurrence of the others.
Quality Assurance is responsible for determining and documenting the degree of supplier surveillance (including review, inspection, or audit) required during design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and shipping, and for providing the required surveillance. The objective of supplier surveillance is to provide a sampling review of the supplier's quality assurance program implementation and of product conformance with respect, to the purchase XV-25
order requirements. For complex equipment and designs, Quality Assurance and Engineering are responsible for joint development of surveillance plans in advance of surveillance trips to identify areas to be reviewed.
The results of the surveillance trip are documented by means of inspection sheets or trip reports which are distri-buted to the Quality Assurance Coordinator, the Vice President and Chief Engineer, the Ginna Station Quality Control Engineer, and the Ginna Station Superintendent.
When a deviation from purchase order requirements is noted, the Quality Assurance representative has the authority to inform the vendor that a particular item is unacceptable, to issue a nonconformance report, or to stop work, if
.necessary.
The Ginna Station Quality Control Engineer is responsible for surveillance of site contractors to assure that they I
meet all technical and quality requirements. The reporting and documenting of contractor surveillance is managed in a manner similar to supplier surveillance.
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for re-ceiving and storing materials, parts, and components.
Upon arrival, the plant storekeeper logs the item, places a "hold" tag on the item, and notifies Quality Control that the item has arrived.
IV-26
Quality Control is responsible for receipt inspection upon delivery at the plant of material, equipment, and associated services for operation, maintenance, repair, modifications, and refueling. This inspection includes the use of written procedures or checklists to .verify that the material, equipment, and services conform to the procurement documents (if this has not been performed by source inspections) and that documentary evidence of con-formance is available at the plant prior to installation or use. Documentary evidence sufficient to identify the codes, standards, or specifications met by the purchased material, equipment, and services is retained. In the event a final source inspection is conducted prior'to the arrival at, the plant, Quality Control performs an in-spection for shipping damage or lost parts and a document check to assure that the required documentation has been reviewed and is complete. A receiving inspection checklist is completed for all items received to document, the extent of the inspection performed, including the documents checked, and the inspection results.
If the item and documentation are adequate, Quality Control labels the item as "Accepted", files the documentation and receipt inspection results, and returns the item to the station stockroom. Xf the item is nonconforming or the
documentation is incomplete, Quality Control initiates a material deficiency report which is controlled in accordance with Section IV.15.
All items issued must bear an acceptance tag and have documentation to support the acceptability of the item.
In the event the traceability is lost ox the documentation review is unsatisfactory, the item becomes nonconforming and may not'be released for use.
Identification and C'ont'rol'f Ma't'e'ri'a'1's', Parts, and Com onents The identification and control of materials, parts, and components is accomplished in accordance with written require-ments and applies to material, parts, or components in any stage of fabrication, storage, or installation. Identi-fication and control requirements are established by either an existing procedure or requirements documents which are pxepaxed during the planning stages of a project. The identification and control requirements cover items such as: traceability to associated documents such as drawings, specifications, purchase orders, manufacturing test data and inspection documents, and physical and chemical mill test reports; specification of the degree of identification and 'control necessary; location and method of identification to preclude a degradation of the item's functional capability or quality; and the proper identification of materials,
parts, and components prior to release for manufacturing, shipping, construction, and installation.
The Vice President and Chief Engineer is responsible for assuring that. specifications contain appropriate requirements for the identification and control of materials, parts, or components. Suppliers are'equired to assure that all required documentation for an item is properly identified and related to the item. Each item is required to be physically identified, either by marking on the item or by tags.
Physical identification by purchase order number is used to the maximum extent. possible for rela'ting an item at any time to applicable documentation. Identification is either on the item or records traceable to the item. Where physical
~
identification is impractical, physical separation, procedural control, or other appropriate means are employed.
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for main-taining identification and control of materials, parts, or components received, stored, installed, and used at the plant. Procedures covering the identification and control of materials, parts, and components are prepared by Quality Control and approved by the Ginna Station Superintendent.
Xn the event that traceability is lost for a specific item, it is handled as nonconforming material and deviations
~ a
and waivers are controlled and documented in acc'ordance with Section IV.15.
Control of S ecial Proce'sses Written procedures are established to control special processes, such as welding, heat treating, and nondestructive examination to assure compliance with applicable codes, standards, and design specifications. Qualification of personnel and procedures complies with the requirements of applicable codes and standards. When special process qualification requirements are not included in existing codes and standards, they are described in procedures which give details of the special process, the personnel qualification requirements, the equipment necessary, and the special process qualification requirements.
The Vice President and Chief .Engineer and the Ginna Station Superintendent are responsible for requiring suppliers, in procurement documents, to control special processes in accordance with the above requirements. Quality Assurance and Quality Control are responsible for reviewing procure-ment. documents to assure that. requirements for control of special processes are included.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM FOR STATION OPERATION Qualit Assurance Pro ram The quality assurance program described in this Supplement has been developed by the Rochester Gas and Electric Corpora-tion to assure safe and reliable operation of the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. This program applies to all activities affecting the safety related functions of the structures, systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the con-sequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue risk .to the health and safety of the public. These quality affecting activities include operating, maintaining, repair-ing, refueling and modifying.
The basic Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation quality assurance policy is established by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer in his Corporate State-ment of Quality Assurance Policy. This policy is imple-mented by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production through the Quality Assurance Coordinator and the Ginna Station Superintendent.
The program is governed by a Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual which contains the requirements and assignment of responsibilities for implementation of the program. The manual is. prepared, reviewed, and maintained by Quality Assurance and approved by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production.
IV-1 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
The program is implemented through Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Engineering, and Purchasing Procedures.
These procedures are prepared and approved by the responsible organization (i.e., Quality Assurance, Opera-tions, Engineering, and Purchasing) and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance. The procedures are contained in separate manuals maintained by the responsible organization. All these procedures are reviewed for adequacy at least,,once every two years by the responsible organization. Table IV.1-1 provides a listing of the subjects and a short description of the subject matter which is contained in the procedures.
Organizational interfaces are defined and controlled by sections of the Quality Assurance Manual. Organizational responsibilities are described in Section IV.2.
The quality assurance program covers all existing Seismic Category I structures, systems, and components, including their foundations and supports. Activities affecting the quality of these structures, systems, and components are controlled to an extent consistent with their importance to safety. A detailed listing of the structures, systems, IV-2 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
S. i and components covered by, the quality assurance program, based on Section 1.2.1 of the Final Facility Description and Safety Analysis Report, is contained in the Quality Assurance Manual.
Details of the system boundaries and the quality classifi-cation of water-and-steam-containing components are con-tained on system Slow drawings. The listing of structures, systems, and components covered by the quality assurance program and 'the system flow drawings are prepared and maintained by Engineering and reviewed and concurred with by Quality Assurance.
Modifications or additions to existing structures, systems, and components are designated the same seismic classifica-tion as the existing system. New structures, systems, and components are designated a seismic classification in accordance with the guidelines in USAEC Regulatory Guide 1.29.
Supervisory personnel are indoctrinated in quality assurance policies, manuals, and procedures to assure they understand that these are mandatory requirements which must be imple-mented and enforced. Personnel responsible for performing activities 'affecting quality are trained and indoctrinated in the requirements, purpose, scope, and implementation of quality related manuals and procedures. Refresher sessions IV-3 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
are held periodically and retraining is required whenever a new procedure is issued or a major revision is made to an existing procedure. Training of personnel not in the quality assurance organization is the responsibility of each department performing an activity affecting quality.
Quality Assurance assists in establishing training re-quirements and assures that personnel are trained by auditing training records.
In addition to training in quality assurance, each department conducts on-the-job training to assure that personnel are qualified for their primary work assignments.
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for the formal training, qualification, licensing, and requali-fication of operators, as necessary. Where necessary, personnel are trained in radiation protection, plant safety and security.
The Nuclear Safety Audit and Review Board is required to review the status and adequacy of the quality assurance program at least once every two years to assure that it is meaningful and is effectively complying with corporate policy and 10CFR50, Appendix B. This review consists of audits or a review equivalent to an audit performed by company personnel or outside consultants. Reviews will be conducted every six months during the first two years that the program is implemented.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control are further responsible for review, inspection, surveillance, and audit, as appropriate, of document control systems to assure adequate systems are implemented.
Control of Purchased Naterial, E ui ment, and Services Procurement documents, supplier selection, supplier 0
surveillance, and receipt inspection are the four major means used in controlling purchased material, equipment, components, and services. All procurement is conducted in accordance with procurement documents as stated in Section IV-4. All reviews, inspections, surveillances, and audits are conducted by personnel who are competent in establishing whether or not a supplier: is capable of providing acceptable, quality products.
Suppliers must be on an approved suppliers'ist prior to being issued a purchase order. Supplier evaluations are performed by Quality Assurance, Engineering, Purchasing, and/or Ginna Station, as necessary, for the item or service involved. The depth of the supplier evaluation varies depending on the complexity and importance to safety of the item involved. For example, for mass produced or off-the-shelf items, only a check of past performance may be necessary. On the other hand, for complex, important. items a very thorough review is performed.
IV-23 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
Engineering is responsible for evaluating the overall design or manufacturing capability of the supplier in-eluding his particular technical ability to produce the design, service, item, or component delineated in the procurement documents. As part of this review, the supplier's design capabilities, machinery capabil-ities, handling capabilities, testing facilities, service capabilities, and exPerience are reviewed.
Quality Assurance is responsible for evaluating the supplier's overall quality assurance organization and program in accordance with applicable codes, standards, applicable parts of 10CFR50 Appendix B, and Rochester Gas and Electric Requirements. The review includes consideration of: company organization, quality assurance personnel qualifications, review and control of design documents, manufacturing procedures, quality assurance procedures, calibration practices,,acceptance criteria, required quality assurance records and their retention, and quality assurance requirements and controls I
imposed by the supplier on his subcontractors. Supplier evaluation is conducted by means of procedures or checklists which identify applicable regulatory or code quality assurance requirements.
IV-24 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
1 Ginna Station qualifies suppliers of inspection, test, and calibration services and the suppliers of spare and replacement parts if the procurement is of the identical part from the original supplier.
2 Quality Assurance, Engineering, and Ginna Station document their supplier evaluation results in reports which discuss areas investigated, findings, and con-clusions. As 'applicable, concurrence of Purchasing, Engineering, Ginna Station, and Quality Assurance is required to place a supplier on the qualified suppliers'ist.
One organization can remove a supplier from the list without concurrence of the others.
Quality Assurance is responsible for determining and documenting the degree of supplier surveillance (including review, inspection, or audit) required during design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and shipping, and for providing the required surveillance. The objective of supplier surveillance is to provide a sampling review of the supplier's quality assurance program implementation and of'roduct conformance with respect to the purchase order requirements. For complex equipment and designs, Quality Assurance and IV-25 Revision 2 November 1, 1974

IV-26 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
't Al t '\ \ ~
Quality Control is responsible for receipt inspection upon delivery at the plant of material, equipment, and associated services for operation, maintenance, repair, modifications, and refueling. This inspection includes the use of written procedures or checklists to verify that the material, equipment, and services conform to the procurement documents (if this has not been performed by source inspections) and that documentary evidence of con-formance is available at the plant prior to installation or use. Documentary evidence sufficient to identify the codes, standards, or specifications met by the purchased material, equipment, and services is retained. In the event a final source inspection is conducted prior to the arrival at the plant, Quality Control performs an in-spection for shipping damage or lost parts and a document check to assure that the required documentation has been reviewed and is complete. A receiving inspection checklist is completed for all items received to document the extent of the inspection performed, including the documents checked, h
and the inspection results.
If the item and documentation are adequate, Quality Control labels the item as "Accepted", files the documentation and, receipt inspection results, and returns the item to the station stockroom. If the item is nonconforming or the IV-27
f 4
documentation is incomplete, Quality Control initiates a material deficiency report. which is controlled in accordance with Section IV.15.
All items issued must bear an acceptance
)
tag and have documentation to support the acceptability of the item.
In the event, the traceability is lost or the documentation review is unsatisfactory, the item becomes nonconforming and may not be released for use.
Identification and Control of Materials, Parts, and Com onents The identification and control of materials, parts, and components is accomplished in accordance 'with written require-ments and applies to material, parts, or components in any stage of fabrication, storage, or installation. Identi-fication and control requirements are established by either an existing procedure or requirements documents which are prepared during the planning stages of a project. The identification and control requirements cover items such as: traceability to associated documents such as drawings, specifications, purchase orders, manufacturing test data and inspection documents, and physical and chemical mill test reports; specification of the degree of identification and control necessary; location and method of identification to preclude a degradation of the item's functional capability or quality; and the proper identification of materials, IV-28
parts, and components prior to release for manufacturing, shipping, construction, and installation.
The Chief Engineer is responsible for assuring that specifications contain appropriate requirements for the identification and control of materials, parts, or components. Suppliers are required to assur'e that all required documentation for an item is properly identified and related to the item. Each item is required to be physicall'y identified, either by marking on the item or by tags. Physical identification by purchase order number is used to the maximum extent possible for relating an item at any time to applicable documentation. Identifi-cation is either on the item or records traceable to the item. Where physical identification is impractical, physical separation, procedural control, or other appro-priate means are employed.
The Ginna Station Superintendent is responsible for main-taining identification and control of materials, parts, or components received, stored, installed, and used at the plant. Procedures covering the identification and 5
control of materials, parts, and components are prepared by Quality Control and approved by the Ginna Station Superintendent.

Holding Rules. System status is indicated through the use of hold tags and control logs.
Equipment or system inspection and test status are indi-cated by use of test tags, labels, or work inspection and test'tat'us sheets. Written procedures control the use of hold tags, test tags, and labels. The procedures require the recording of the name of the person placing and removing the tag.
Systems, components, and equipment which are found to be unacceptable during or after testing are clearly identified.
Fuel handling operations involving fuel assemblies or other radioactive sources're identified and controlled by the, use of tags, stamps, or other suitable means.
Plant maintenance, repair, or modification of components, systems, or structures utilizes a work inspection or test status sheet, to indicate acceptance or rejection for a particular component, system, or structure. Work inspection or test status sheets are prepared and maintained at a designated control location to indicate the status of work and the completion of required inspections and tests.
Quality Control monitors the status change activities for their compliance to approved procedures and assures jv-40
0 that inspection results are properly logged. Quality I
Control also establishes the procedures for implementing the work inspection= or status sheets during maintenance, repair, and modification.
Nonconformin Materials," Parts, and Com onents Procedures are established for the control, evaluation and disposition of deficient material, parts, and components.
Materials, parts, or components which do not conform to drawing or specification requirements are identified with a hold 'tag and reported on a material deficiency report.
Quality Control 'is responsible for issuing material deficiency reports, recommending disposition, .initiating repair or rework, and inspecting and approving repaired or reworked items.'rior to installation or use, non-conforming items remain in a Quality Control receiving inspection area until approved disposition has been received.
After installation or use, nonconforming items are identified until approved disposition has been received.
Prior to installation or use, suppliers are notified of all nonconforming items and requested to recommend dis-position. Purchasing is responsible for obtaining the recommended disposition from the supplier. Engineering is responsible for reviewing and approving supplier's recommended disposition. After installation or use, Engineering is responsible for determining and approving disposition of nonconforming items.
4 Items are repaired or reworked only in accordance with documented procedures and drawings prepared and approved by Engineering. Quality Control assures that and drawings are available for use prior to approved'rocedures the repaix or rework and reinspects all repaired or reworked items. The repair or rework must be verified as acceptable by an inspection of the affected item which is at least equal to the original inspection method.
Items which are accepted for use with a known deficiency are fully documented with the specification requirement, justification for acceptance, and affect of such use.
All such items are approved prior to use by the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production.
Quality Control issues monthly material deficiency report summaries which are reviewed and analyzed by Quality Assurance. Unsatisfactory trends are reported to manage-ment by means of the corrective action report in accor-dance with Section IV.16.
IV.16 Corrective Action Quality Assurance establishes the requirements for identification, review and correction of conditions adverse to quality. Conditions adverse to quality, IV-42 Revision 2 November 1, 1974
such as, failures, malfunctions, deficiencies, deviations, defective material and equipment, and nonconformances are reported on a corrective action report. Conditions adverse to quality include conditions affecting safety, conditions which could result in plant shutdown, high maintenance items, and operating procedure deficiencies.
The corrective action report identifies the condition, the cause of the condition, and the corrective action taken.
Corrective action reports may be initiated by Quality Assurance, Engineering, Ginna Station, or Purchasing staff personnel. Corrective action reports initiated't Ginna Station are submitted to Quality Control for review and subsequent processing. Corrective action reports initiated by Engineering and Purchasing are reviewed and processed by Quality Assurance.
When a condition adverse to quality at Ginna Station is identified, Quality Control evaluates the affect of continuing the activity. If continuing the activity would cover up e
or preclude identification and correction of the deficiency, continuing the activity would increase the extent of the deficiency or lead to an unsafe condition, stop work action is taken. The Ginna Station Quality Control Engineer has authority to stop work on maintenance, repair, refueling, or modification deficiencies. The Ginna Station Quality Revision 2 November 1, 1974 IV-43
Control Engineer may recommend stop work action to the Ginna Station Superintendent on operating deficiencies.
The Plant Operations Review Committee reviews all corr-ective action reports initiated at Ginna Station and h recommends interim corrective action if the action does not represent a change in configuration of the deficient item. The Committee recommends permanent corrective action for all conditions adverse to quality which involve operating 8 procedures.
Conditions, adverse to quality which involve design defici-encies or a recommended corrective action which involves a design change are reviewed by Engineering. Engineering determines the cause of the condition and recommends corrective action to preclude repetition.
Quality Assurance reviews all corrective action reports
,to assure that the cause of the condition has been deter-mined and that corrective action has been taken to preclude repetition. Quality Assurance also reviews material deficiency report summaries for unsatisfactory trends and initiates a corrective action report if s'uch
~
a trend occurs.
Completed corrective action reports are submitted to the Vice President, Electric and Steam Production to keep him aware of significant conditions adverse to quality.
