Com-mrnl .. e Edi.an Company QUALITY A88U .. ANCE MANUAL INTRODUCTION This Quality Assurance Manual contains the plan governing the Commonwealth Edison Company (CECo) quality assurance program relative to its nuclear power generating facilities. The Manual consists of two parts. The first part includes the requirements developed as the Commonwealth Edison Company quality management plan. The second part. inc.ludes Engineering and Construction and Oper;:itions procedures to implement the quality management plan. The purpose of the Quality Assurance is to standardize quality requirements and procedures and otherwise identify methods of quality control. The design, organization, and contents of this manual are intended to comply with the documents: a. Apperidix B to 10CFR50 ''Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Plants" (AEC regulation covering licensing of production and utilization facilities). b. ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (Section III). ; c. ANSI N45.2 -Quality Assurance Program Requirements for Nuclear Power Plants. d. ANSI N18.7 -Administrative Controls for Nuclear Power Plants. The procedures in the Quality Assurance Manual will be supplemented by additional instructions which will be developed and documented by individual departments, eAch Generating Station 8nd Construction Site as the need arises and be controlled by Quality Assurance Administration. For each Station, these will be developed in specific areas such as operation, maintenance and repair which ere peculiar to that Station. The individual Station Maintenance and Operations Procedures Manuals will be developed for this purpose. The application of the 18 Criteria of Appendix B to 10CFR50 FIS outlined in this manual is in accordance with their interpretaticn as understood by Commonwealth Edison Company. ChanGes or cations to these interpretations will be reflected in revisions to the Manual Requirements or Quality Procedures. Revisions tc this manual will be made in accordance with a Quality Procedure. The contents of this Quality Assurance Manual apply to related material, components, equipment, systems, and structures (i.e., those that prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue risk to the health and safety of the public) as defined in each Station's SAR(s).

'-y: ATTACHMENT I QUALITY ASSURANCE MANUAL NUCLEAR GENERATING STATIONS 1833 QUALITY ASSURANCE MANUAL This Quality Assurance Manual has been prepared to delineate the requirements and procedures governing the Commonwealth Edison Company quality management plan for nuclear generating stations.
Implementation.of the plan Quality Requirements with Quality Procedures provides a degree of quality assurance commensurate with the intent of applicable codes, Atomic Energy Commission requirements, and Federal Regulations governing design, ment, construction,  
: testing, operation, refueling, maintenance, repair, and modification of nuclear power generating facilities.
The execution of the quality management plan will assure wealth Edison Company that the plant is built to requirements and with the reliability necessary to safeguard the general public and Company employee.
The scope of this manual covers the total quality management plan for the life of Commonwealth Edison Company nuclear generating plants commencing with the LaSalle County Station.
The quality assurance plans covering the Dresden, Quad-Cities, and Zion plants for design, construction,  
: testing, and start-up are contained in e the following documents:

.. e Edi.an Company QUALITY A88U .. ANCE MANUAL INTRODUCTION This Quality Assurance Manual contains the plan governing the Commonwealth Edison Company (CECo) quality assurance program relative to its nuclear power generating facilities.
The Manual consists of two parts. The first part includes the requirements developed as the Commonwealth Edison Company quality management plan. The second part. inc.ludes Engineering and Construction and Oper;:itions procedures to implement the quality management plan. The purpose of the Quality Assurance is to standardize quality requirements and procedures and otherwise identify methods of quality control.
The design, organization, and contents of this manual are intended to comply with the documents:
: a. Apperidix B to 10CFR50 ''Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Plants" (AEC regulation covering licensing of production and utilization facilities).  
: b. ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (Section III). ; c. ANSI N45.2 -Quality Assurance Program Requirements for Nuclear Power Plants. d. ANSI N18.7 -Administrative Controls for Nuclear Power Plants. The procedures in the Quality Assurance Manual will be supplemented by additional instructions which will be developed and documented by individual departments, eAch Generating Station 8nd Construction Site as the need arises and be controlled by Quality Assurance Administration.
For each Station, these will be developed in specific areas such as operation, maintenance and repair which ere peculiar to that Station.
The individual Station Maintenance and Operations Procedures Manuals will be developed for this purpose.
The application of the 18 Criteria of Appendix B to 10CFR50 FIS outlined in this manual is in accordance with their interpretaticn as understood by Commonwealth Edison Company.
ChanGes or cations to these interpretations will be reflected in revisions to the Manual Requirements or Quality Procedures.
Revisions tc this manual will be made in accordance with a Quality Procedure.
The contents of this Quality Assurance Manual apply to related material, components, equipment,  
: systems, and structures (i.e., those that prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents that could cause undue risk to the health and safety of the public) as defined in each Station's SAR(s).

CECo first developed this quality rr.anual to respond to the requirements of the Federal Register 10CFR50, Appendix B. The manual is divided into two parts \*ti th the first part titled, "Ouali ty ments," and the second part titled, "Quality Procedures." The Quality Requirements portion of the manual contains CECo's policies for Quality Assurance and the Quality dures portion contains detail procedures for implementation of the policies. The Quality Procedures are uniquely numbered to differentiate between those that are applic2ble to Engineering and Construction activities and that apply in Operations activities. In each section, Envineerinf and Construction procedures end with a -1 through -50 suffix while the Operations procedures end with -51 through -100 suffix. The Quality Procedures are automatically invoked by the Quality Requirements (i.e., Q.R. 5.1 invokes all Section 5 Quality Procedures).

Edison Company ____ _ Commonwealth Company is ultimately responsible for the assurance of quality in all phases of the design, procurement, COt\7 structionJmodifications, and pre-ser,_;.ice' testipg.of the Station. Edisom executes this responsibility in accordance with the program set ;1 forth in Attachment 1 and further assigns areas of ultimate sibility to specific Edison organizations and individuals. as scribed in that attachment. Edison has delegated the responsibility for certain phases of the work to Sargent & Lundy and the NSSS supplier, both/of whom act as Edison's agents in the assigned areas. As *discussed in Attachment 1, Edison maintains overall*control of the efforts of these organizations by various mechanisms such as ,design evaluation and audits. Edison has prime responsibility for . . controlling the* quality of on-site work by field contractors. The Manager of Quality As5urance directs the quality assurance ac:tivities for the design, procurement, and construction of the company's nuclear power'facilities and has been delegated responsibility. and authority to stop unsati*sfactory work or stop . . . further processing of unsatisfactory material during design engineering and cons.truction of the plant :.t."'ld design engineering and construction for plant modification.

designs, quality assurance
programs, test reports, and design reports.

Sargent & Lundy further performs an independent evaluation of the NSSS design. Sargent &. Ltindy .* is responsible .for the document for all phases of the job. Organizational Responsibilities for Major Operations Design Control of design quality is essentially a four-stage process. Designs originated by either the NSSS supplier or Sargent & . "*Lundy are subjected to internal review by the designer and an independent internal party (or parties). The NS.SS supplier and Sargent & Lundy designs are evaluated by each other as well as by personnel from one or more Edison departments

  • . These four steps constitute the primary design evaluation for all safety-3 (

.. ,: ... *-:/ related: items in the Station. Appropriate document distribution and control has been established to permit an effective effort in this area. Comments an designs resulting .from these tions are presented in letter form, by telephone (with,written follow-up), or in meetings with published minutes. Edison has final authority with respect to decision making o_n designs. Procurement Procurement control and follow-up for NSSS components is established and maintained by "tthe NSSS supplier. Edison and Sargent & Lundy evaluate the NSSS procurement sp_ecif ications and 'Edison audits and inspects the.NSSS supplier*control measures. Procurement of and follow-up on non-NSSS components and services ,are directly controlled by Edison, based on 'sargent & Lundy spec-. ifications which have been evaluated by Edison. ,*Sargent & Lundy is used to assist in this effort, as Edison's agent, as quested by Edison. Construction Construction quality assurance is an Edison sibility. Edison exercises managerial control of all site activities and specifically the site Quality Assurance Group maintains close surveillance of on-site contractors*. and qualiti assurf:inCe activities. The NSSS supplier furnishes technical and Quality Control assistance for on-site activities relating to the NSSS.

MANUAL ASME CODE HiTF.:HFl'J".:E The folJ ow inc L> ri descriptJon of how th:i_:; r,!:-H:d;! l complies 1,;i th thP. of ASME Boiler and Pressure VesseJ Code (Section I I I). . 1.0 GENERAL (NA-4210) CECo's overall Quality Assurance program is designed to accommodate the encineering and construction llh8ses of a nuclear power plant ancl sul;sequently the operational ma_intenance and modificetion of the program. CECo first developed this quality rr.anual to respond to the requirements of the Federal Register

10CFR50, Appendix B. The manual is divided into two parts \*ti th the first part titled, "Ouali ty ments," and the second part titled, "Quality Procedures."

The Quality Requirements portion of the manual contains CECo's policies for Quality Assurance and the Quality dures portion contains detail procedures for implementation of the policies. The Quality Procedures are uniquely numbered to differentiate between those that are applic2ble to Engineering and Construction activities and that apply in Operations activities. In each section, Envineerinf and Construction procedures end with a -1 through -50 suffix while the Operations procedures end with -51 through -100 suffix. The Quality Procedures are automatically invoked by the Quality Requirements (i.e., Q.R. 5.1 invokes all Section 5 Quality Procedures). This "ASME Code Interface" is provided to specifically explain CECo implementation and compliance with the latest applicable Quality Assurance requirements of the ASME Code Section III Article NA-4000. Figure I and II arc attached to show the relationships between this manual, Code, ANSI N45.2 and 10CFR50, Appendix B. Figure III is attached to show the document tree utilized within CECo to assure that the quality requirements have been translated into detailed procedures that are implemented at the working level within each station. 1.1 Statement of Authority The Statement of Authority of the quality assurance organizations of CECo is contained in the preface of this manual. \ The quality assurance organizations of CECo are emr-.. 2red to assure compl.i;:ince with the q11al i ty requ i rement'.'i, not only of ASME Code, but also those of the Federal ment and the various nationnl standards that are applied to an owner's program of quality assurance in nuclear power. Quality Assurance authority within CECo for the engineering and construction phases of a nuclear power plant is vested i::;h Lhe Manager of Quality As.surance and. sul1sequently to the Quc:i.li ty Assurance Administrator.

  • Quality Assurance authority for operations is vested with the of Production and subsequently the Superintendent of Nuclear and Fossil Systems.

1.2 Responsibility Responsibility for implementation of quality assurance requirements rests with the Manager of Quality Assurance and the Manager of Production. 1.0 of the quality requirements further defines and assigns bilities within CECo. Since CECo relies heavily in engineering and construction upon the utilization of an architect engineer (AE), nuclear steam supply system suppliers (NSSS), suppliers and subcontractors to each, Quality Assurance is a line group assigned as an audit function. CECo contrr:icts with suppliers who are qualified in accordance with the applicable section of the ASME Code and who have the appropriate Code authorizations. Audits are performed by CECo to verify the performance of the architect engineers and nuclear steam supply system suppliers and their subcontractors. In operations and maintenance, the Superintendent of Nuclerlr and Fossil Systems utilizes the Quality Assurance Administrator's (Production) Office for the monitorine of day-to-day operations and the governing of the maintenance and modification of nuclear generating station facilities in accordance with those codes and standards to which the facility was originally constructed, or the latest edition of the codes and standards, dent upon the age of the faciJity and the design ments. This organization also audits the performance of the station Quality Assurance groups which are a part of the station technical staffs. \

  • 1.3 Organization Charts The overall and detailed charts describing CECo's organization are contained in Section 1.0 of the Quality Requirements portion of this manual. The basis Quality Assurance organizational structure within CECo is a combination of staff and line functions.

The engineering portion of the organization is a line zati 0n intimately and directly involved with the day-to-day construction and engir1eerinc activities rass8ciated with nuclear fa6ility construction. Operational Quality Assurance is both staff and line with a station Quality Assurance group which performs quality control functions and is part of the station line organization. The performance and compliance of each station to quality assurance requirements is assured through audits administered by the Quality Assurance Administrator. 1.4 Policy Statement The basic policy statement concerning CECo's Quality Assurance program is contained in ttiis quality assurance manual. Overall policy, includes not only compliance with ASME Section III Article NA-4000 for items contracted for after July 1, 1971, but also the requirements contained in the federal regulations

10CFR50, Appendix B, ANSI Standard N45.2 and ANSI N18.7. Put together, all of these standards comprise the CECo quality assurance program requirements which, in all cases, is equal to or exceeds those ments contained in ASME Section III, Arcticle NA-4000.

2.0 DRAWING AND SPECIFICATION CONTROL (NA-4410 and NA-4430) Drawing and specification control is maintained by CECo to assure that only the latest approved drawinf,s and specifications are utilized in the procurement, fabrication, construction, maintenance and modification of nuclear power plant facilities. Basic control lists are maintained in an integrated system within CECo and also with their subcontractors. 2.1 Production, Maintenance and Distribution The overall production, maintenance 8nd distribution of of standards, and specifications, are split the design and construction phases of the project and the maintenance/modification phases of the project * \ 2.2 Normally, CECo contracts with a qualified architect engineering firm to provide design drawings, standards and specifications for initial construction of the power plant. Augmenting this basic contract is another contract with the nuclear steam supply system supplier who produces

drawings, engineering standards, and fications for those portions of the plant for which he is responsible.

For maintenance and modification, if the.work to be performed is major in nature, a qualified architect engineer may produce the drawings, engineering standards and specifications required and submit them for review and approval by CECo. In those instances where the maintenance or modification work is minimal or very minor in nature, CECo may elect to produce the required

drawines, standards and specific3tions and/or perform the physical work involved.

In these instances, design work, reviews and Professional Engineer (PE) Certification, if required, may be accomplished by CECo's architect engineer. The applicable Authorized Inspection Agency is advised of the ASME design change in accordance with Section 6 of the Quality Procedures. The basic review structure, details of review and distribution by CECo are contained within Sections 3.0 and 6.0 of the Quality Procedures portion of this manual. Drawing Revision Control CECo assures control of revision to drawings produced by its architect engineer or nuclear steam supply system supplier by requiring submission, for documented review and comment, of all changes or revisions to the originally approved desien With respect to maintenance or modifications of systems, structures, or components, the design revisions are submitted to the respective electrical or mechanical engineering sections of station operations for review and prior to release. Design change evaluation is carried out in accordance with Section 3.0 of the Quality Procedures. Periodically, updated listing of the revisions in both phases of the program are issued in accordance with Section 6.0 of the Quality Requirements and Quality Procedures portions of this manual. \ 2.3 and Engineering Standard Revisions Ci'.:C..:o assures control of revisions to specificn tions a.nd engineering standards utilized on their nuclear power projects in with those controls described in Sections 3.0 and C.O of the Quality Requirements and Quality Procedures portion of this manual. When the revision involves this manual, the Authorized Inspecti9n Ar,ency is advised of the chanee by means of a review copy for their information. Transmittal of the revision is accomplished in accordance with Section 2.0 of this manual. 3.0 PROCUREMENT CONTROL (NA-4440 and NA-4442) Procurement document control in the design and construction phases of .power plant construction by CECo is exercised by the architect engineer or the nuclear steam supply system supplier in the specifications prepared by them to comply with the rules and regulations of ASME Section III as well. as other regulatory codes and standards requirements. With repard to the operational phase, either an architect engineer's control i::; exerted and/or CECo' s own internal control is exerted, dependent upon the assignment of the responsibility by CECo. In those instances of CECo' :; control, requirements of Section III, CJ.ass 1, 2, 3 or MC, as applicable, are directly lr1cluded in the procurement documents. In the instances of the utilization of an architect

engineer, the requirements of ASME Section III regulations, codes and standards are imposed upon the architect engineer by CECo and subsequently assured by the Engineering Quality Audit function.

3.1 Procurement Basic procurement control as exercised by CECo, is described in Sections 4.0 and 1.0 of the Quality ments and Quality Procedures portions of this manual. Overall, the engineering and construction portions of procurement are operated in such a manner that the architect is required to submit the designs, specifications and standRrds to be utilized in ment to CECo for review and approval. Subsequent to approval of procurement documents by CECo, the actual purchasinf is performed by CECo. The NSSS supplier performs the procurement, subject to CECo audit.
