e VEPCO NUCLEAR POWER STATION QUALITY ASSURANCE MANUAL CORRECTIVE ACTION SECTION: REV. NO.: DATE: PAGE 16 7 2-10-:zs 5 OF 52 6.0 PROCEDURE Conditi6ns adverse to quality or defects in basic components must be identified by all Vepco personnel associated with the operation of the nuclear power stations.

All Vepco personnel have the responsibility to report these conditions and the procedures described herein provide a means to report significant conditions adverse to quality to the appropriate levels of management.

Prior to the issuance of the operating license for each nuclear unit, Sections 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4 will not be implemented for that unit; the required reports will be accomplished in accordance with the Corporate Quality Assurance Manual Section 5.13. 6.1 Reporting of Deviations To assure that deviations are investigated and processed in an ient, orderly, and systematic manner, this procedure establishes definitions, guidelines, and detailed instructions for reporting such events. 6.1. I Deviation A deviation is defined as a significant difference between the expected value or condition and the measured or actual condition.

There is no precise method to quantify the difference which constitutes a deviation; however, the following examples are illustrative of deviations:

a. b. c. d. e. f. g. Any reportable occurrence as defined in the Technical Specifications.

Any deviation discovered as a result of a calibration, periodic test, special test, start-up test, chemistry and HP, maintenance procedure or other station procedure.

Significant instrumentation drifts, drift in trip setpoints, failure of instrument channels, etc. Failure to conduct a required periodic test within the I allowable time frame. Exceeding thermal limitations as established in the Technical Specifications.

A defect in a basic component which could, upon evaluation, contribute to a substantial safety hazard. Defects or failures to comply in a security system shall be considered to be a deviation.

A defect or noncompliance in a security system is one which could allow access of an unauthorized individual to a vital area without being detected by the security system and requires a Part 21 report. 6. 1.2 The Shift Supervisor shall be informed of all deviations, or nonconformances which may be deviations.

He shall initiate appropriate action in accordance with this procedure.

e e e VEPCO NUCLEAR POWER STATION QUALITY ASSURANCE MANUAL CO~RECTIVE AtTION SECTION: REV, NO,: CATE: PAGE 16 7 2-10-78 6 OF' 22 .6.1.3 The Station Nuclear Safety and Operating Committee shall review all 14-day or 30-day Licensee Event Reports before written submittal to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

6.1.4 Processing a Deviation

a. The individual identifying the deviation shall complete the "DEVIATION REPORT" in accordance with the attached instructions.

This individual shall immediately report the deviation to his supervisor or, in his absence, to the Shift Supervisor.

b. For nonconformances resulting from receipt inspection of material or for items found defective after receJpt tion, a "NONCONFORMANCE REPORT" form shall be initiated and immediately forwarded to the cognizant supervisor.
c. The cognizant supervisor shall review the report and initiate any immediate corrective action required.

The Shift Supervisor shall. be immediately notified of all .deviations or nonconformances.

' d. The Shift Supervisor shall initiate a "DEViATION REPORT" for those nohconformances determined to be deviations.

e. The Shift Supervisor shall review the deviation and mine its correct classification.

If the deviation is deemed to be a Reportable Occurrence, as defined by Technical Specifications, it shall be reported immediately to the Operating Supervisor or the Superintendent-Station Operati-0ns or their designee.

If the deviation is classified as nonreP,ortable the Shift Supervisor shall so denote on the "DEVIATION REPORT 11* In the event that the deviation is not easily classifiable, the Assistant Operating Supervisor or Operating Supervisor shall be immediately notified to aid in the classification.

Additional management and technical personnel may be consulted as necessary to classify ~he deviation.

If . there is any disagreement between the above listed personnel the Station Nuclear Safety and Operating Committee shall make the determination.

f. The Shift Supervisor shall review the deviation with regard to the Substantial Safety Hazard definition less of any other classification.

As a result of this review, the Shift Supervisor may recommend a formal 10CFR21 review by the Station Nuclear Safety and Ope~ating Committee to determine reportability.

g. If classified as a reportable occurrence, the Operating Supervisor, Superintendent-Station Operations, or designee ', shall immediately report the occurrence to the Station Manager.

The draft of the report shall also be forwarded to the Director -Nuclear Operations, who shall be responsible for preparing the submittal to the NRC. q. Items concerning nuclear units under construction which are handled as potentially reportable items under ' lOCFRPart 21 or 10CFR50.55(e) and may be applicable to operating un1ts shall be evaluated for applic~bility and reportability by tne operating staff. Conversely, items discovered at operating stations may apply to units under construction shall be brought to the attention of the Project Engineer.

(1) When an item involves an operating unit; the Project Engineer or his designee will have a copy of Form #883.SC, along with supporting documentation, hand carried to the Director of Nuclear Operations or his designee.

A copy of the information will then be called or telecopied to the Station Managers at North Anna and Surry as appropriate by the Direttor, Nuclear Operations or h~s designee.

The item will then be evaluated for reportability in accordance with the station's Technical Specifications and applicable regulations. (See Corp. QA Manual, QAM-5.13, para. 6.7) (2) Deviation reports originating at operating stations which are reportable will be telecopied to the Director of Nuclear Operations as soon as reportability is determined.

The Director of Nuclear Operations or* his designee will determine if the deviation is considered potentially reportable for construction units, the deviation form and any additional information will be hand carr.ied to the Project Engineer for stadons under construction and the Executive Manager -Licensing

& Quality Assurance (EM -LQA). The EM -LQA has already been orally notified (see para. j). \
