APPENDIX E QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM (QAP)
TOPICAL REPORT - MILLSTONE POWER STATION PROGRAM EXCEPTIONS
- 1. ANSI N45.2.9, states in part, "structure, doors, frames, and hardware should be Class A fire-related with a recommended four-hour minimum rating." The three record storage vaults onsite have a two-hour rating.
The licensee's vaults are used for storage of documentation that is unsuitable for filming or awaiting filming.
A records organization exists along with written procedures addressing the control of quality assurance records.
- 2. Deleted
- 3. ANSI N45.2.9-1974, paragraph 1.4, definition of "Quality Assurance Records" states in part: "For the purposes of this standard, a document is considered a quality assurance record when the document has been completed."
The licensee has developed the following alternative definition to provide guidance during the interim period from the time a document is completed until it is transmitted to the licensee records retention facilities:
"A record is considered a working document until it is transmitted to the licensee records retention facilities at which time it is designated as a Quality Assurance Record. The following maximum time limits are established for the transmittal of working documents to the licensee records retention facilities:
ODerations Documents - Documentation generated during plant operations may be maintained, as needed, by operating plant departments, for up to one year.
New Construction or Betterment Documents - Documents which evolve during new construction or betterment projects shall be transmitted to licensee records retention facilities within 90 days of completion of a new construction project or turnover of a betterment project or plant operations.
Procurement Documents - Inspection/Surveillance/AuditReports generated during vendor oversight activities which are used to maintain vendor status for current and future procurements may be maintained, as needed, by Document Administration for up to three years.
All Other Workina Documents - All other working documents shall be transmitted to licensee records retention facilities within 6 months of their receipt or completion."
QAP - Appendix E Rev. 27 Date: 07/01/05 Page 1 of 6
The requirements of ANSI N45.2.9-1974 do not apply to these "working documents" based on paragraph 1.Iof the ANSI standard which states:
"It (ANSI N45.2.9) is not intended to cover the preparation of the records nor to include working documents not yet designated as Quality Assurance Records."
- 4. Requlatorv Guide 1.64 - 6/76, the Regulatory position states, in part, "It should not be construed that such verification constitutes the required independent design verification."
The licensee has developed the following alternative to allow for adequate independent design verification:
This review may be performed by the originator's Supervisor, only if the Supervisor:
Did not specify a singular design approach; Did not establish the design inputs or did not rule out certain Design considerations; Is the only individual in the organization competent to perform the review.
Where the Supervisor performs the design review, the next level of management shall fulfill the Supervisor's responsibilities.
- 5. ANSI N45.2.13 - 1976, paragraph 10.3.4, states in part: "Post-Installation Test requirements and acceptance documentation (should) shall be mutually established by the purchaser and supplier." Involvement by the supplier in establishing Post-InstallationTest requirements and acceptance documentation is requested only when it is deemed necessary and proper by the responsible engineering organization.
The licensee no longer has any nuclear plants under construction. As a result, most procurements are made for spare parts from suppliers who are not the original equipment manufacturer. In these cases, the supplier may have little or no understanding or knowledge of either the operation of the system the component is to be installed in, or applicable Post-Installation Test requirements and acceptance documentation. As such, the licensee assumes responsibility for establishing Post Installation Test requirements and acceptance documentation.
- 6. ANSI N45.2.2 - 1972, paragraph 1.2, states in part that, "The requirements of this standard apply to the work of any individual or organization that participates in the packaging, shipping, receiving, storage, and handling of items to be incorporated into nuclear power plants."
Since a portion of the licensee procurement activities involve commercial suppliers which do not fully comply with the requirements of ANSI N45.2.2, the licensee's Supply Chain Management organization verifies through source inspections, receipt inspection, and/or survey activities that the quality of the materials, items, components or equipment is preserved by those suppliers to the extent that packaging, shipping, storage and handling methods are employed which are commensurate with the nature of the product.

QAP Appendix E Rev. 27 Date: 07101105 Page 2 of 6
- 7. ANSI N18.1-1971, paragraph 4.2.2, states in part The Operations Manager shall hold a Senior Reactor Operators license. The licensee has developed an alternative to this requirement which has been accepted by the NRC via amendment 132 for the Millstone Power Station Unit No. 3 license which allows that:
If the Operations Manager does not hold a Senior Reactor Operator license for Millstone Unit No. 3, then the Operations Manager shall have held a Senior Reactor Operator license at a pressurized water reactor, and the Assistant Operations Manager (Supervisor
- Nuclear Shift Operations) shall hold a Senior Reactor Operator license for Millstone Unit No. 3 and meet the qualification requirements of Section 4.3.8, Operations of ANSVANS 3.1-1987, American National Standard for Selection, Qualification and Testing of Personnel for Nuclear Power Plants (in accordance with Section 4.2.2 reference to the Operations Middle Manager).
- 8. ANSI N18.1-1971, paragraph 4.2.2, states in part The Operations Manager shall hold a Senior Reactor Operators license. The licensee has developed an alternative to this requirement which has been accepted by the NRC via amendments 178 and 190 for the Millstone Power Station Unit No. 2 license which allows that:
If the Operations Manager does not hold a Senior Reactor Operator license for Millstone Unit No. 2, then the Operations Manager shall have held a Senior Reactor Operator license at a pressurized water reactor, and an individual serving in the capacity of the Assistant Operations Manager (Supervisor - Nuclear Shift Operations) shall hold a Senior Reactor Operator license for Millstone Unit No. 2 and meet the qualification requirements of Section 4.3.8, Operations of ANSVANS 3.1-1987, American National Standard for Selection, Qualification and Testing of Personnel for Nuclear Power Plants (in accordance with Section 4.2.2 reference to the Operations Middle Manager).

- 14. ANSI N18.7-1976, Paragraph 5.2.15, Review, Approval, and Control of Procedures, states in part: Plant procedures shall be reviewed by an individual knowledgeable in the area affected by the procedure no less frequently than every two years to determine if changes are necessary or desirable.
The licensee implements administrative and programmatic controls that ensure procedures are maintained current in accordance with 10CFR50, Appendix B, thus meeting the intent of the biennial review.
The licensee implements administrative controls to perform biennial reviews of non-routine procedures such as Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs), Abnormal Operating Procedures (AOPs), Off Normal Procedures (ONPs), Emergency Plan, Security and other procedures that may be dictated by an event.
Programmatic controls specify conditions when the mandatory review of plant procedures apply, and include a requirement to review applicable procedures following an accident or transient and following any modification to a system.
The licensee utilizes a pre-job briefing practice to ensure that personnel are aware of what is to be accomplished and what procedures will be used prior to beginning a job. In addition, the Procedure Compliance Policy requires that the job be stopped and the procedure be revised or the situation resolved prior to work continuing if procedures cannot be implemented as written.
QAP - Appendix E Rev. 27 Date: 07/01/05 Page 4 of 6
Additionally, the licensees Quality Assurance Program requires the review of a representative sample of plant procedures as part of routine audits and surveillances to ensure that existing administrative controls for procedure verification, review and revision are effective in maintaining the quality of plant procedures. Significant procedural deficiencies are identified and corrected through the Station Corrective Action Program.
The Station Self-Assessment Program also periodically reviews selected procedures and identifies deficiencies and improvements through the Corrective Action Program.
