February 27, 1982 Mr. Harold R. Denton, Director X@+e Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 7920 Norfolk Ave.
Bethesda, Maryland 20114
Dear Mr. Denton,
Two issues raised during the February 3, 1982 meeting with the NRC staff require additional clarification.
Six seismic service-safety related contractors have been identified to date:
EDS URS/Blume Wyle Harding-Lawson Cygna (EES) Anco In addition to the QA review, the independent calculations, which cut across the seismic design'hain, encompass work performed by each of these contractors. The enclosed document, "Seismic Reverification Program-RLCA-Sample Selection" gives a one to one correlation between the con-tractor performed work and the in'dependent samples.
Additional verification is required if deficiencies are found in either the QA review or the independent calcula-tions. The basis and approach for this'dditional. verif'ica-tion is discussed in'he enclosed document: "RLCA-General Criteria for Addit'ional.Verification". In. addition, four examples of additional verification are given.
It is hoped that these two documents will help to clarify the two is'sues raised "at the Februa'ry 3, 1982 meeting.

GENERAL CRITERIA FOR ADDITIONAL VERIFICATION 1.0 Introduction The Seismic Verification Program is based upon the following steps:
- 1. Performance of Independent Calculations for a sam-ple of buildings, piping and equipment
- 2. Review of Quality Assurance programs for adequacy and implementation
- 3. Performance of additional verification if deficien-cies are found in the QA review or the Independent Calculations The basis and approach for the third step, additional veri-fication, is discussed in the following paragraphs.
1l 2.0 Additional Verification Resulting from Quality Assurance Reviews Deficiencies in the Quality Assurance program adequacy or imple-mentation of PGGE or service related contractors will be cause for additional technical verification of design work. This review will cover the technical work done under the deficient QA program. QA deficiencies are reported as findings or observations. For present purposes these are defined as:
~Findin : a nonconformance with respect to the Quality Assurance Program adequacy or implementation that re-quires corrective action due to potential impact on quality.
Observation: a noncomformance which does not require corrective action. This nonconformance does not have an apparent impact on quality.
Additional technical verification of the subject design work will be performed for all Findings as defined above (Observations will not require additional verification).
2.1 Criteria Depending upon the nature of the design work done under inadequate Quality Assurance, one of the following approaches will be taken.
2.1.1 Design Review
~
Technical work of a qualitative nature will verified by review, by means of the following steps,
t
-Define scope of work
-Establish an independent review program
-Perform review to establish whether work is satisfactory based upon state-of-the-art methods applicable to the ori-ginal design work
-Write review report and draw conclusions as to whether work is satisfactory or not 2.1.2 Independent Calculations Technical work of a quantitative nature will be verified by means of independent calculations. The following steps will be followed,
-Establish scope of work.
-Develop a verification program based upon independent calculation of a suitable sample of the work, based upon state-of-the-art methods applicable to the ori-ginal design work.
-Perform verification program to establish whether work is satisfactory.
-Write verification report 2.1.3 Example An example of this verification that covers both qualitative and quantitative review is given herein as Example 2.1.3-1.
l 3.0 Additional Verification Resulting from Independent Calculation Program The independent calculation program entails four categories of verification:
- 1. -Field inspection to determine whether the as-installed configuration conforms to the design configuration
- 2. -Independent calculations to determine the correctness of the design calculations
- 3. -Verification that applicable seismic design input was employed
- 4. -In certain cases, design methodology is separately verified Deficiencies identified by any of the above will result in additional verification.
3.1 Deficiencies resulting from field inspection The objective of performing additional verification as a result of identified deficiencies in the as-built config-urations will be to discover the extent of such deficiencies.
One of the two following methods will be used for such addi-tional verification.
-Repeated field inspections of additional sample con-figurations
-Establish the cause or reason for the discrepancy; then trace down other discrepancies that could possibly
I 'I result from such cause or reason (see Example 3.1.-1).
3.2 Deficiencies resulting from the independent calculation program The objective of performing additional verification as a re-sult of identified calculational deficiencies will be to discover the extent of such deficiencies. This will be accom-plished by one of the following means.
-Performance of additional independent calculations 4
until the reasons for discrepancies are understood and a clear basis exists for all remaining safety-related discrepancies to be remedied.
-Determination of the cause or reason for the discrepancy; then trace down other discrepancies that result from such cause or reason (see Example 3.2-1).
3.3 Deficiencies resulting from inapplicable seismic input The objective of performing additional verification as a result of the use of inapplicable seismic input will be to discover the extent and significance of such deficiencies.
This will be accomplished by one of the following means
-Determination of the cause or reason for the discrepancy; then trace down other discrepancies that result from such cause or reason (see Example 3.3-1).
-Performance of additional checking of seismic inputs.
3.4 Deficiencies in design methodology The objective additional verification will be to identify and correct all deficiencies in design that result from faulty methodology. This will be accomplished by two me-thods,
-a critique of the methodology in question will be issued
-when the methodology has been improved or justified, the design work will be re-verified relative to the new or revised design methods.
Example 2.1.3-1 Deficiency: Harding-Lawson QA Report by Reedy contained three Findings (QA Findings 968, 969 and 970)
Additional Verification: RLCA and Robert McNeill are currently assessing the scope of the Harding-Lawson work. A program will be developed to verify this by design review, inde-pendent calculations or a combination of the two Example 3.1-1 Deficiency: An ambiguous design note led to a communication problem between engineering and the field concerning'dditional tubing weight on raceway supports (EOI 910)
Additional Verification: PGandE has set up a program to examine all raceway supports with attached tubing. Pre-liminary indications show attached tubing on about 100 of the 20,000 class IE raceway supports
r Example 3.2-1 Deficiency: The buckling of the of the tank skirt and sloshing loads on the roof were not evaluated by PGandE for the Boric Acid Tank (EOI 1030).
Additional Verification: RLCA will verify that other Hosgri tanks are not affected by the above items.
Example 3.3-1 Deficiency.: Nine of twenty electrical raceway support calcu-lations checked for the Preliminary Report used inappli-cable spectra (EOI 983).
Additional Verification: PGandE is currently reviewing all the class IE electrical raceway support calculations. RLCA will select a sample of these re-done supports for inde-pendent calculations to close out EOI 983.
