l I INTRODUCTION l

'O I I This TOPICAL report (manual) describes the AP&L quality program applied l

l lbyAP&Ltoitsoperatingnuclearplants. This manual is intended to l serve as a standard reference for final safety analysis reports to l l fulfill the requirements of the Standard Format and Contents of Safety l I Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants Section 17, published by the l i

lNuclearRegulatoryCommission.

l-l The' objective of this program is to control those phases, as applicable,

! l for the design, procurement, manufacture and fabrication, installation, l operation, testing, refueling, repair, maintenance or modification to I existing safety related (Q-List) structures, systems and components that l

, prevent or mitigate the consequences of a postulated accident which may I cause undue risk to the health and safety of the public. The program is l an outgrowth of the principle that quality assurance emanates from each I individual contributor and that management is responsible for creating an l lawarenessof' quality.

O  !

g The AP&L quality program is designed to comply with the requirements of I 10CFR50, Appendix B, Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants l

_landFuelReprocessingPlants,andtocomplywiththequalityassurance l

l requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI for l l repair, replacement,andinserviceinspectionofitemscoveredbythe I Code and Licensing commitments. l 1

I l- 1 l

l l The AP&L quality program is also designed to comply with the NRC l positions contained in the following regulatory guides, subject to I specific exceptions noted in Table 1 of this manual:

1 The purchase of material, equipment and services is controlled to assure l that, whether purchased directly or through vendors, the material, l equipment and services which affect quality conform to the procurement l

l documents. Procurement control includes provisions for source evaluation I l ~ and selection, objective evidence of quality furnished by the contractor, l

The depth and necessity of procurement controls depend upon I the uniqueness and complexity of the item / service, procurement frequency I with the same supplier and past supplier performance for the specific l items or services covered by the procurement document. The control of l

. purchased material, equipment and services is to be in accordance with l the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.38 Rev. 2 (5/77) and 1.123 Rev.1 l (7/77) unless otherwise noted in Table 1.
