The PRA Program described fully supports the proposed NRC Regulation 10CFR50.34(e)(1)(i) and Boston Edison's continuing interest in the management of residual isk. O! The PRA Program will be implemented in an expeditious manner to enhance the practicality of incorporating improvements. The PRA schedule will be coordinated with the construction schedule in a manner that wil allow the use of intermediate PRA results. The following delineates how the PRA Program will be conducted. B. PRA Program Cojective The aim of this PRA Program is to: a) seek design improvements in systems affecting the reliability of accomplishing core and contain-ment heat removal which: l t IC-2 l

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(1)(1)

1) contribute to significant probabilistic risk reduction, s and
2) represent practical applications of demonstrated engineering technology, and
   's          3) do not excessively impact upon the plant construction and startup schedule or upon plant costs; and b)           quantify the merit of design improvements.

The PRA Program has been specifically structured to meet these objectives,

recognizing the advanced state of design (62% complete engineering) and fabrication (major plant components fabricated and in storage).

To enhance the practicality of incorporating design improvements, the PRA Program utilizes preliminary reliability analyses previously per-formed, DRA generic and specific results and recommendations from other projects, and applicable operating experience feedback. The early part of the program will draw heavily on these valuable sources for potential design improvements in the reliability of core and con-tainment heat removal. C. Progran Description The plant / site-specific PRA is conducted so as to ensure that the results are factored into the final plant design. For this reason the benefits of prior generic and plant-specific reliability and O. risk studies and operating experience are relied upon heavily for early selection of design modifications. We anticipate these design modifications will encompass major opportunities for significant risk reduction which do not excessively impact on the project cost or schedule. State-of-the-art methods commonly accepted by PRA experts are utilized in the course of the program. The program approach is to: a) select practical design modifications identified as having the potential for significant risk reduction and b) evaluate and contrast these

selected design improvements with the plant design as presently i described in the PSAR. Outliers identified in the event sequence l quantification steps are fed back for further consideration.

A primary objective of the design is to assure the ability of control room operations personnel to prevent anticipated transients from developing into accidents and to cope with accidents should they occur. The main control board design will be pro-m vided to the NRC for approval prior to fabrication of the main control boards.

  )  The following provides preliminary design information and the approaches to control room design and design review currently underway.

A) Preliminary Design Information

1) The 4100 square foot control room area arrangement is shown on Figure 1C-2.
2) The main control boards (MCB's) are arranged in a wing pattern with an adjacent electrical distribution section as shown on Figure IC-2. The benchboard style of each MCB, shown on Figure IC-3, is designed for operations from a standing position. -

O 3) The communications area consists of the Operator's Console and Communications Console, also shown on Figure 1C-2. The () Operator's Console contains CRT's and keyboards which enable the operations personnel to access the plant computer. On-site and off-site communciation system access is provided at the Communications Console. bV 4) Auxiliary control panels are verical in style, located behind the MCB's as shown on Figure 1C-2. B) Design Approach O 1) The control room design appoach is.to provide sufficient b devices (i.e., controls, indicators, and annunciators) functionally arranged to er.able the control room operations personnel to efficiently _ and effectively direct or control the performance of the station through all phases of normal or transient operation. The functional arrangement philosophy IC-17

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(iii) can be illustrated with the following design concept l eymaples: a) Control devices will be arranged on the control board and duplicated as necessary to allow operations invciving several systems to be accomplished with minimum physical movement of the operator; e.g., for decay heat removal using the Shutdown Coo ling System, all pump and valve controls associated with the Shutdown Cooling System are located in the same area as pump and valve controls for the supporting Component Cooling Water System. b) Informational devices (indicators, annunciators) will be arranged on the control board and duplicated as necessary so that the relevant effects of operating a particular control device are provided as immediate feedback to the operator at the control station; e.g., Steam Generator level indication is provided at the Main Feedwater Control Station and duplicated for the operator at the Emergency Feedwater Control Station.

2) The following criteria are used to determine the preliminary scope of the controls, indicators, and annunciators in the control room:

The scope will enable the control room operations personnel to: a) safely shut down the station and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition from within the control room under transient and accident conditions. b) direct non-safety-related routine operations con-trolled within or outside the control room. c) control those operations which require timely action to preclude the onset of unsafe or equipment damaging con-ditions.

3) The following criteria are used to determine the control room arrangement and the preliminary arrangement of controls, in-dicators, and annunciators in the control room to assure that ,

the criteria in 2) above are met. a) The following operations personnel will be present, as a minimum, on each shift: o two (2) licensed operators, one assigned to the nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) and one to & W the baiance of plant (B0P) e one (1) shift supervisor 1 e one (1) watch engineer IC-18

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(iii) b) -The required functions will be performed at the MCB's, with only infrequent or supportive use of the vertical q auxiliary control panels. The Operator's Console is Q designed for operation from a seated position and provides the capability to monitor and trend selected parameters. c) Areas (refer to onFigurc the NCB's IC-2 : are) allocated as follows (O y e The center area of the MCB's contain systems requiring the most immediate and frequent attention (i.e. reactor control and protection). e The end areas of the MCB's contain systems re-quiring the least immediate or frequent attention. e Between these extremes, systems are arranged in descendSg order of igortance from the center area to the end areas. d) Devices are functionally grouped by system within the following four areas: e Reactor (center) NSSS e Primary Side (left) NSSS e Secondary Side (right) B0P e Electrical (adjacent) B0P This functional grouping enables operations personnel to efficiently accoglish specific functions or tasks. ' e) Within a functional group on the MCB's, conventions were adopted in accordance with human factors principles utilizing EPRI industry studies, including the EPRI study developed by Lockheed in 1976. Such conventions include: consistently arranging system flow vertically Ov e with similar devices at the same elevation; e consistently arranging groups of devices (e.g. , key plant parameter indicator groupings); e consistently coding the shape / color of devices to aid differentiation (e.g., pump from valve controls). { x , f) Systems with coglex interconnections or requiring in- , frequent operator attention are provided with mimic  ! diagrams to guide operations personnel. j V)  : i { 1C-19

AMENDMENT 13 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(iii) C) Design Methodology Systems analysis as outlined below will be incorporated into the 43 design of the control room to meet the intent of the elements of Appendix B of NUREG-0659 with the exception of multiple failures. Multiple failures will be examined under the probabilistic risk l assessment (PRA) program described in our response to 10CFR50.34 (e)(1)(1).

1) A human factors review of the control room design will be perfomed using industry and NRC-developed guidelines, in-cluding NUREG/CR-1580. The scope of this review will include the control room design, including the control room arrange-ment and environment, and the MCB layouts. The design will be evaluated for conformance with the design criteria, and any resulting modifications will also be reviewed. This human factors review will be performed by individuals experienced in operations, systems analysis, human factors engineering, architectural engineering and control room design.

43

2) An operability analysis of the control room design will be performed on a functional or task basis using sequence analysis tachniques and typical operating procedures. Elements of the sequence analysis will be:

a) Defining the required safety functions of the plant g b) Defining the Safety Actions needed to achieve the Safety Functions c) Identifying the applicable planned events, abnomal operating transients, and accidents to be included d) By use of sequence diagrams the required success paths (on a system level) to achieve the safety actions are identified e) Each element of the success path requiring manual action by the operating staff is identified. This task-oriented analysis will be performed by individuals O experiences in systems analysis, operations, human factors engineering, and control room design. . It will utilize a full-scale plant specific mockup of the MCB's. The scope of this analysis will include operation of each system, the MCB mockups, and the man-machine interface. Findings will be evaluated and any resulting modifications will also be analyzed.

3) 00ston Edison will submit information to enable NRC review prior to fabrication of the MCB's. The scope of the Pilgrim Unit 2 submittal will include design criteria and bases, arrangement of room, MCB layouts, and the results of design reviews complete r that time.

(II.B.2) RESPONSE TO 10CFR50.34(c)(2)(vii) RADIATION AND SHIELOING DESIGN REVIEU A preliminary radiation and shielding design review of the spaces around systems that may, as a result of an accident, contain highly radioactive materials, was performed in response to NUREG-0578 as modified by the NRC letter of November 9,1979. This review showed that with the present design, the continuously occupied vital area:, may be accessed as required during all phases of the accident and that doses to operating personnel are well within the limits set in GDC 19. The primary sanple facility may Le accessed within one hour, and most potential post accident support areas may be accessed after one hour without undue exposure. This preliminary review indicated that there will be little gained from the addition of significant amounts of general area shielding. A preliminary reliability analyses of the ESF systems indicated they will be able to bring the plant into and maintain it in a long term stable condition. 43 Additional design reviews are being conducted in accordance with NUREG-0737 as the detailed design progresses. Should the additional reviews so indicate, design modifications will be implemented to permit adequate post accident access or to protect safety equipment from the radiation environment. Any required design and procedural changes will be made to maintain personnel exposures in vital areas within GDC-19 specified design basis. O 1C-24 O 1 l

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50. 34 (e) (2) (vii)__ Details of this preliminary review are as follows: j A. Definitions & Criteria i For the calculation of post accident dose levels three ' types of accidents with three types of radiation sources O have been defined as follows: An accident which releases Regulatory (1) TMI-Class A Guide 1.4 levels of activity t'o the reactor coolant subsequent to the restoration of reactor coolant pressure boundary integrity. (2) TMI-Class B: An accident that releases Regulatory Guide 1.4 levels of activity to the reactor coolant > with a substantial loss of coolant to the containment prior to restoration of reactor coolant pressure boundary integrity. (3) LOCA: The classical design basis event character-  : Tied by an irrecoverable break in the reactor coolant  ! pressure boundary and the release of radioactivity  ! as specified in Regulatory Guide 1.4. Each of the defined accident types will provide specific  ; radiation sot.rce terms due to dif ferent dispersion mechanisms  ! as well as different dilution volumes. The following table, Table IC-3 besides listing accident types,  ! also gives information on such activities, dilution volumes,  ! and systems to which the source terms are applied.

For the purpose of this radiation and shielding design review, vital and potential post accident support areas are defined as follows: (1) Vital Areas: Those areas in which personnel will be present during post accident operations to perform monitoring and control functions (i.e., control room, technical support center, sampling facility) and, radio-chemical and chemical analysis laboratory. (2) Potential Post Accident Support Areas: Those areas other than vital areas where it is possible, although not essen-tial, to have access to support post accident operations. B. Radiation Exposure Criteria The criteria for personnel radiation exposure are derived from General Design Criteria 19 and Standard Review plan 6.4, as required by N'JREG- U78 and the November 9,1979, NRC letter. The maximum allowabh. radiation dose to personnel will not be in excess of 5 rem whole body, or its equivalent to any part of the body for the duration of the accident. For the calculation of the post accident radiaticn dose rate levels, the following assumptions were employed: (1) The total radiation dose rate at a given location is the sum of containment shine and equipment shine. (2) No credit has been taken for containment internal structures in the calculation of dose rates from containment shine. (3) There is no processing of liquids or gases. (4) A conservative non-mechanistic approach to developing radio-activity source terms was used assuming operation of all ESF systems at one hour into the accident, with no credit taken for RCS depres'surization for the removal of noble gases.

Sanpling System Design Description The primary samplino system permits samples to be taken during all phases, of normal power operations, as well as during post-accident periods. Tt.e system, which consists of both a liquid and a gas sampling station, will,be located as close to the containment as possible. This will minimize the lengths of sanple lines, shorten the time of sampling and reduce the volunes of liquids and gases involved. For sampling the containment atmosphere, the system will be desianed to function between - 2 psig and + 60 psig. The facility will have the capability of taking the following pos+.-accident samples. For liquids: a Reactor Coolant Loop Hot leg b Pressurizer Steam Space c Containment Sump-w 5 4 For gases: a) Containment high points ' b) Containnent low point The system is designed such that plant personnel can take the samples using*the same equipment and components regardless of the plant condition. This will assure that plant personnel will be thoroughly familiar with the equipment and work sequences, ninimizing the need for special training to cope with emergency situations. 1C-30

l AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(viii) f Each sample station will be designed to be under negative pressure, ' with air in-leakage from the surrounding areas in order to minimize E 1 the spread of airborne radioactivity beyond the station. The liquid sample station of the facility will have provisions for sample dilution and purging of all sample equipment and components. The liquid and gaseous sample stations will allow sample waste volumes to be returned

  • to the containment.

Evaluation Results of the review of the primary sampling system are as follows: . 1. Post-accident samples can be taken within one hour of a Regulatory Guide 1.4 type accident.

2. Sufficient shielding will be provided such that an individual will not receive radiation exposures in excess of 3 Rems to the-whole body, or 18-3/4 Rems to the extremities.
3. Post-accident sampling will be possible at a location allowing ingress / egress one :1our after the onset of the accident and during all subsequent phases of the accident without undue radiation exposures to l

O an individual from containment shine as well as from equipment /conponent shine dee to systems involved in the mitigation of an accident. II. Radiological Sample Analyses A design and operational revicw of the radiological spectrum analysis facilities will be performed to determine the capability to promptly quantify certain radioisotopes that are indicators of the degree of core damage. Such radionuclides are noble gases (which indicate cladding failure), iodines and cesiums (which indicate high fuel temperatures), and non-volatile isotopes (which indicate fuel melting). Analysis of the initial reactor coolant spectrum will correspond to a Regulatory Guide 1.4

,          release. The review will also consider the effects of direct radiation from piping and components, in the auxiliary building and possible con-tanination and direct radiation from airborne effluents.

The essential buses, which receive ac power from the diesel generators upon loss of offsite :.c power, supply the battery chargers for the non-safety related 115 volt de system. The associated instrumenta-tion is powered from che 1.20 volt instrument ac power system which also receives power from the essential buses, which receive ac power from the diesel generators. The design is such that the pressurizer heaters may cycle on and off automatically on the diesel generators. The diesel generators will be sized to accept this load without the need for load shedding. The connection or disconnection of each pressurizer heater bank with its respective emergency power source can be accomplished,.from the control room. 1C-38 , I

This information is of the type customarily required to satisfy 10CFR50.35(a)(2) or to address unresolved generic safety issues. (xiv) Provide containment isolation systems that: (II.E.4.2) (A) ensure all non-essential systems are isolated automatically by the containment isolation system, (B) for each non-essential penetration (except instru-ment lines), have two isolation barriers in series, (C) do not result in reopening of the containment iso-lation valves on resetting of the isolation signal, ( D) utilize a containment set point pressure for initiating containment isolation as low as is compatible with normal operation, (E) include automatic closing on a safety-grade high radiation signal for all systems that provide an open path to the environs. RESPONSE TO 10CFR50.34(e)(e)(xiv) ISOLATION DEPENDABILITY The Pilgrim Unit 2 containment isolation system is discussed in Section 6.2.4 and the associated instrumentation is discussed in Section 7.3. The Pilgrim Unit 2 containment isolation system design complies with the recommendations of Standard Review Plan Section 6.2.4. There is diversity in the parameters sensed for the initiation of containment isolation. The Pilgrim Unit 2 con-tainment isolation system is initiated on either high containment pressure or low-low pressurizer pressure. In addition, those systems open to the containment atmosphere, such as the containment purge system, are also isolated on high containment radiation. Specific responses to those lettered items of the position regarding isolation dependability are as follows: A) Careful consideration has been given to the definition of essential and non-essential systems. PSAR Table 6.2-20 identifies the systems which penetrate containment. These systems will be categorized in the FSAR as essential, potentially beneficial, or non-essential. The following definitions will be applied in categorizing the systems: O 1C-40 l

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)( xiv) O Essential Essential systems are those critical to the immediate mitigation of any event that results in automatic containment isolation. Essential systems prov'ide RCS inventory and pressure control, f] v reactivity control, core cooling, secondary heat sink, contain-ment cooling (depressurization), and safe shutdown. Essential systems must be available in response to accident parameters without operator action and, therefore, should not be automatically isolated as part of the Containment Isolation System. V Potentially Beneficial Potentially beneficial systems are those which are not required innediately following events which result in containment isolation, but may be helpful in accomplishing the recovery and shutdown of the plant. These systems will be automatically isolated as part of 43 the Containment Isolation System except for systems which may be damaged by such isolation. Justification for not isolating these systems will be provided in FSAR. If automatically isolated, the operator may choose selectively to un-isolate these systems as they are needed. These systems would enhance safe shutdown by providing the operator with additional information and increased control. These systems might also provide additional equipment protection. O Non-Essential , Those systems not included above. All non-essential piping systems as identified in Table 6.2-20, will be automatically isolated by the Containment Isolation Actuation Signal (CIAS). B) As required for post-accident situations, each non-essential penetra-tion (except instrument lines) will have two isolation barriers in series that meet General Design Criteria 54, 55, 56 and 57, as set forth in Section 6.2.4. Isolation will be performed automatically D with no credit being taken for operator action. All manual valves h will be locked closed so as to qualify as an isolation barrier. Each automatic isolation valve in a non-essential penetration will receive independent isolation signals, derived from diverse parameters. C) The design of the controls for automatic containment isolation are p such that resetting the isolation signals will not result in the h automatic reopening or un-isolation of containment isolation valves. Reopening of containment isolation valves will require deliberate operator action. Administrative provisions to close all isolation valves manually- before resetting the isolation signals will not be utilized. O 1C-41

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(xiv) D) The containment setpoint pressure that initiates containment O\ isolation for non-essential penetrations will be reduced to the minimum compatible with normal operating conditions. This revised setpoint will be set forth in the FSAR. In determining the revised setpoint for initiating containment isolation, the containment pressure history during normal operation for similar operating plants will be taken into consideration. The pressure setpoint selected will be far enough above the maximum observed (or expected) pressure inside containment so that inadvertent containment isolation does not occur during normal operation from instrument drift or fluctuations due to the accuracy of the pressure sensor. If a margin in excess of 1 psi above the maximum expected containment pressure is utilized, justification will be provided. E) All systems that provide an open path from the containment atmosphere 43 to the environs (e.g., the containment purge and vent systems) will close on a safety-grade high radiation signal . As discussed in PSAR Section 9.4.6.2, radiation monitors are provided in the con-tainment purge lines to automatically close the containment isolation valves upon detection of a high radiation level in the system. The radiation monitors will be located in relation to the in-service pucge system containment isolation valves such that the fraction of containment atmosphere that is discharged through these isolation valves, before these valves have been isolated by the high radiation signal, will not result in doses in excess of 10CFR100 guideline values for a spectrum of accidents. Section 15.4.6.2.6 and the re-sponse to Question 6.85 provide the results of analyses which demonstrate that the operation of the containment in-service purge system during normal power ge: eration does not result in doses in excess of 10CFR100 guideline values for the containment design basis LOCA. Additional analyses demonstrating the adequacy of the in-ser. ice containment purge isolation provisions for all reactor coolant pipe breaks in addition to the design basis LOCA will be provided in the FSAR. In addition. a safety injection actuation signal signal (SIAS) or a containment isolation actuation signal (CI AS) will automatically close the in-service purge lines and will result in a trip of the purge fans.

(II.F.2) RESPONSE TO 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(xix) UNAMBIGU0US INDICATION OF INADEQUATE CORE C0OLING A primary coolant saturation meter will be provided. This requirement will be met by a micro-computer based system, see Figure IC-4 utilizing process parameters to continuously calculate and display margin to satura-tion in the reactor coolant system. Analog temperature and pressure signals from the reactor coolant system are converted to digital fonn. The corresponding saturation temperature and pressure are calculated by the micro-computer using steam tables and interpolation routine. The micro-computer then compares the saturation values to the actual temmature and pressure and calculates margin to saturation. Continuous indication of pressure or temperature margin to saturation may be selected by the operator. The monitor activates an alarm on low margin to saturation and may be used to automatically actuate auxiliary equipment. Proper use of this feature will be emphasized by the operating procedures and training. An investigative study will be performed to identify appropriate additional equipment, including reactor water level instrumentation and core exit thermocouples, which could be incorporated in the Pilgrim 2 design and used to indicate inadequate core cooling.

1. Immediate Leak Reductio _n _

Systems located outside of containment which may contain radioactive naterial either during normal operation or following a serious transient or accident are the: a) High and Low Pressure Safety Injection System (SIS) b) Containment Spray System (CSS) c) Enclosure Complex Leakoff Collection System (ECLCS) d) Makeup and Letdown Portions of the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS) e) Portions of the Primary Sampling Systen (PSS), used fnr sampling the reactor coolant, containment sump, and containment atmosphere f) Liquid Waste Management System (LWMS)

            ;) Gaseous Waste Management System (GWMS) h) Vent Collection System (VCS)

In order to maintain the integrity of and reduce potential leakage from these systems to as-low-as-practical levels, the " defense in depth" approach s has been utiliud. Engineered Safety Features (ESF) such as the Safety Injection System (SIS) and Containment Spray System (CSS) will not be isolated from the containment, since they are required to operate in order to mitigate a O IC-55

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(xxviii) the consequences of a serious transient or accident. Therefore, the Enclosure Complex Leakoff Collection System (ECLCS) has been specifically designed to collect, monitor and convey leakage from all valves and pump seals in the containment spray and safety injection systems to the ESF pump room sump (PSAR Section 6.7). The sump vent gases, before being released, are vented through a deep bed silver zeclite cartridge filter to reduce iodine releases. The ECLCS is a Seismic Category I system and provides sufficient control room indications to allow an operator to assess the leak tightness of the SIS and CSS, and thus allow operator action to be taken before site release limits are exceeded. The ECLCS is an effective leak reduction feature of the plant design and provides , assurance that leakage will be maintained at as-low-as-practical levels during nonnal operation and in the event of a serious transient or accident. The " defense in depth" approach has likewise been applied to the design

of the CVCS, GWMS, LWMS, VCS, and the PSS to provide for immediate leak reduc-tion during normal operation or following a serious transient or accident.

Several leak reduction features of these systems are as follows:

1) On a Containment Isolation Actuation Signal (CIAS), the Containment Isolation System isolates the CVCS, GUMS, LWMS, VCS, and PSS from potentially highly radioactive post-accident fluids. The Contain-ment Isolation System contains automatic isolation valves which are required to function upon receiving a CIAS following a design basis event (PSAR,Section6.2.4).
2) All systems which may contain highly radioactive liquids are designed to be low leakage systems.

2a) The use of packless valves has been incorporated into the system designs wherever pcssible. 2b) System components are welded in-line to the maximum extent practical, to assure leak tightness. 2c) Pumps are specifically selected fur service with highly radioactive fluids and are provided with double mechanical seals to minimize leakage.

3) The GWMS is specifically designed to be a low pressure system, and con-tains no relief valves or other means of unplanned gaseous release to the surroundings during nonnal or post-accident operation.
4) High radiation monitor alarms in the GWMS and the VCS result in auto-matic termination of system effluent to the environment, thus pre-cluding any inadvertent ventinq of radioactive releases to the environment during normal operation.

IC-56 l l

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(2)(xxviii) l ' O 5) All system vents, drains, and liquid relief valves are piped to a sump from which the effluent can be pumped back into the con-tainment. Both the GWMS and the LWMS are capable of recycling radioactive fluids back to the containment.

6) Incorporation cf a continuing leak reduction program as outlined below. l II. Continuing Leak Reduction In addition to those features outlined for immediate leak reduction, 43 a preventive maintenance program will be utilized to reduce leakage O'$ from sources outside of containment to as-low-as-practical levels.

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR53.34(e)(2)(xxx) Approximately 300,000 SCF of nitregen (an asphyxian't) in ten to twelve storage containers will be located near the northwest corner of the Pilgrim Station Unit 2. Considering the small outside air exchange rate within the control room, and the location and quantity of nitrogen stored, displacement of a significant fraction of the control room air as a result of a postulated container rupture is not credible. Unit' l 'c'o'ntairdnent purging to the atmosphere will not adversely affect Unit 1 or Unit 2 control room habitability. O Tne upper and lower cable spreading rocms are protected from fire by a total ficoding carbon dioxide system. In order to preclude the possiblilty of CD., entering the control rocra upon actuation of the CD system, the floors separating tnese rocms from the control hocm will be sealed with an air tight fire barrier. A total flooding Halon 1301 fire suppression system is used in the caiputer rocm. .Hcuever, this rocm is not adjacent to the control room. 'Ibe control room HVAC can be operated in the total recirculation mode during CO2 and Halon releases to prevent these gases fran entering the control rocn.

2. Cffsite Eeleases The Town o.' Plymouth is currently partially dependent upon surface water sources requiring chlorine treatment (Pilgrin Station Environmental Report, Section 2.2.3.1) .

This chlorine is stored in a maximum of seven (7) 150-pound containers within the Lout Pond water treatment facility, located approximately 4.5 miles WSW of the Pilgrim Site. As evaluated, this quantity of chlorine is substantially lower than the minimum quantity re-quiring consideration in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.78 (6/74) and therefore presents no hazards to station control room habitability. As further discussed i in the Environmental Report, the Town of Plymouth is ! currently developing deep gravel wells yielding water which does not require chlorination, to supplement and eventually replace the current dependence on surface water sources. Therefore, the quantity of chlorine i stored at this location is expected to decrease.

S e radiation exposure of control room personnel c does not exceed the limits set by General Design Criterion 19 of 10CFR50, Appendix A. ne control room air purification system and shielding designs are based on the most limiting

design basis accident assumptions, those of Regulatory Guide l 1.4, Rev. 2, " Assumptions Used for Evaluating the Potential Radiological Consequences of a Loss of Coolant Accident for Pressurized Water Reactors".

The airborne fission product source term in the reactor corttainment following the postulated loss of coolant 4ccident is assumed to leak from the containment building wake, in which the control room and its ventilation intake are assumed to be immersed for the duration of the incident. We concen-tration of radioactivity which is postulated to surround the control room af ter a postulated accident is evaluated as a [ function of the fission product decay constants, the contain-l ment spray system cleanup ef fectiveness, the containment J oak rate, the meteorology for each time period of interest, the flow rate through the control room ventilation intake, and the control room air purification system effectiveness. The control room ventilation system is capable of automatic or manual transfer from its normal operating mode to its emergency mode. ne control room ventilation system is capable of maintaining out-leakage of control room air when i supplying filtered outside air. Such out-leakage precludes control room air contamination during control room ingress / egress. Se system is also capable of manual isolation in the control room from the outside air intake. Internal temperatures are maintained at a habitable level by internal e recirculation cooling only. H e control room ventilation system is also capable of a once through purge mode of ope ra tion.

These procedures are part of - internal programs of Boston Edison and of the Principal Contractors, Bechtel Power Corporation (Bechtel) and Combustion Engineering, Inc. (CE).

       )

The results from evaluation of operating experience, design experience, and from construction experience that affects design, integrate with the basic processes of design and design review. The results of ex-perience review w ll be considered in construction and in operations when those activities occur. (See response to item 10CFR50.34(e)(3) (vii) for more details on the general project organization and pro-cesses for design, operations review, and construction.) Boston Edison Company has the ultimate responsibility for the establishment, implementation and execution of a program on Pilgrim 2 for feedback of operating, design, and construction experience, just as Edison has ultimate responsibility for design and construction of Pilgrim Unit 2. The Principal Contractors, Bechtel and CE, are responsible to Edison g for implementing feedback programs for design, operations, and con- {Q struction experience within their respective organizations. Boston Edison requires that the Principal Contractors review and incorporate appropriate external experience in their respective design and con-struction activities for Pilgrim 2.

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(i) B. Detailed Discussion of Feedback to Design and Construction

1. Organizational Responsibilities I
a. General Boston Edison's organization is described in PSAR Section 13 and discussed in the response to item 10CFR50.34(e)(3)

(vii). In summary, Boston Edison is ultimately responsible for the overall design, construction, and operation of Pilgrim 2 and has established and staffed a Nuclear Organi-zation to manage and oversee the entire project as well as to operate Pilgrim 1. Boston Edison is responsible for management and oversight of the feedback of experience in operations, engineering and construction. Boston Edison requires each of the Principal Contractors to implement procedures for design and construction that include pro-visions for feedback of industry experience. In particular, each of the Principal Contractors is accountable to Boston Edison for a) obtaining and reviewing operating, design, and construction experience origirating both within and outside the project, b) evaluating the experience, and c) incorporating relevant experience in the design and con-struction activities.

b. Boston Edison Company The Boston Edison Pilgrim 2 Project Manager is responsible for the establishment and management of processes for review and oversight of design and construction, including the pro-cesses for experience feedback. Boston Edison functions within the experience feedback program to 1) review and approve the Principal Contractor's programs, 2) audit and monitor Principal Contractor implementation of their programs and 3) furnish data uniquely available to Boston Edison or unlikely to be available to the Principal Contractors, such as Pilgrim 1 experience or owners group information. Edison does not duplicate the efforts performed by the Principal ,

Contractors for Pilgrim 2. However, Edison's Pilgrim 1 operating experience and the on-going review of industry operating experience relevant to Pilgrim 1 provides valuable input for Edison to use in assessment of the Principal Con-tractor programs. Boston Edison review and approval of the Principal Con- 43 tractor's programs is based on the following considerations: e completeness of operating data sources e methods to accept / reject items for detailed review e procedures for dispositioning items on Pilgrim 2 project 1C-64

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(i) v 43 e qualifications of personnel performing reviews and resolutions p e documentation of key program steps and results e principal contractor internal audits or checking to assure adequacy and timeliness of program implementation. A Boston Edison Pilgrim 2 Project obtains monitoring and (') . auditing support from Nuclear Operations Support (N05) and Quality Assurance (QA) personnel, and technical support from Nuclear Engineering. These personnel participate in Pilgrim 1 operations support as well as various industry activities such as industrial standards committees, owners groups, various special purpose task forces and industry associations and thereby obtain information relevant to the Pilgrim 2 desi,gn and construction.

c. Combustion Engineering The organization of Combustion Engineering (CE ) is described in PSAR Chapter 17. With respect to operations, design, and
 /.                  construction experience the CE Engineering Dept. is responsi-(                   ble to obtain, review and evaluate experience, and to advise the cognizant engineering organization of concerns that require resolution or remedial action.

Within CE's Engineering Department, the cognizant functional 43 design group is required by procedure to determine whether the identified concern is applicable to the CE scope on this project and'what remedial action is to be taken. The cognizant engineering group provides the CE Project Manager for Pilgrim 2 with a written description of the applicable concern and the associated remedial action. The Pilgrim 2 CE Project Manager verifies applicability and integrates the necessary resolution of the concern into CE's scope on this project. Additionally, CE engineering management and M the CE Project Manager are periodically apprised of such concerns and the status of remedial action for all the CE nuclear projects through written sumary reports. The CE Project Manager provides for the interfacing of experience information with Bechtei and Boston Edison when the informa-g tion affects interfaces between scope or is otherwise appli-cable to an identified concern. 1 l IC-65 L

AMENDMENT 43 l April 29, 1981 l 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(1)

d. Bechtel Bechtel organization is described in Chapter 17. With respect to experience feedback from design and operations, both on and off project personnel are responsible to obtain, review and assess industry experience. Items of concern are identified by San Francisco Power Division Management, by Pilgrim 2 Project Engineering and communicated in writing to various Pilgrim 2 project design discipline groups, as appropriate. The design discipline groups are responsible to determine the applicability of the concern to the Pilgrim 2 project and to disposition it in accordance with applicable procedures by making a determination of whether the con-cern applies and if so to identify the remedial action to be taken.

The Bechtel Construction Engineering Staff is responsible for obtaining construction experience data and resolving field construction problems referred to them. Construction review meetings are held to discuss construction problems and resolve items of concern as needed. The Bechtel Project Engineer is responsible to bring items to the attention of the Boston Edison Pilgrim 2 Project Manager.

2. Administrative and Technical Review Steps; and
3. Recipients of Information
a. General Boston Edison has delegated most of the responsibility for design and construction to the Principal Contractors. As part of their responsibilities, Bechtel and CE each have independent programs for operating experience review.

Operating experience is obtained and reviewed in parallcl by the two organizations. Neither Bechtel nor CE depends upon the other or upon Boston Edison for the input data. In addition, Boston Edison is responsible to advise Bechtel and CE of operating experience data uniquely available to Boston Edison, such as from Pilgrim 1 operations and from utility owners groups, in cases where that unique data is relevant to Pilgrim 2 and significant to design or con-struction. IC-66 i l

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(i)_ The role of each of the three companies in feedback programs will now be described in more detail.

b. Boston Edison Comany Boston Edison functions within the program for review of  !

l operating and design experience to: 1) review and approve the Principal Contractors' programs, 2) audit and monitor Principal Contractor iglementation of their programs and

3) furnish data uniquely available to Boston Edison or un-likely to be available to the Principal Contractors.

Operating Experience Infomation on operating experience is obtained and reviewed by Nuclear Operations Support to meet the objectives stated above. Primary sources of information unlikely to be avail-eble to the Principal Contractors are Pilgrim 1 operations and utility / industry groups. The primary source for auditing and monitoring of Principal Contractor experience feedback pro-grams will be the output from the INP0/NSAC "Significant Events Evaluation Infomation Network," or SEE-IN. NOS operations engineers will obtain assistance as necessary from Nuclear Engineering (NE) in their review. This review O is to detemine if an item is applicable to Pilgrim 2 and is of sufficient concern to pursue with the Principal Contractors. Once NOS, with NE support, has determined that an item of operating experience is of concern, or warrants particular Edison attention, NOS will consult with Nuclear Engineering and recomend a course of action. In some cases, the appropriate action will be decided within Edison, particularly if tne corrective action is in plant maintenance or operations. If a design evaluation is needed, the BEco Pilgrim 2 Project will request appropriate action by the Principal Contractor (s). At this point, the operational concern is resolved as part of the normal process for Pilgrim 2 design, operator training or operations procedure development. Design Experience For design experience, Nuclear Engineering has the primary responsibility to both identify and resolve concerns. As with operatin experience, Edison's responsibility is to obtain and I O review a infomation uniquely available to Boston Edison or unlikely to be available from the contractors, b) infomation from Pilgrim 1, and c) information for auditing and monitoring l 1C-67

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34{e)(3)(i)_ of the Principal Contractors. Information on design issues ' will be obtained thmugh owners groups, other industry activities, and Pilgrim 1 operation. Ilhen an individual NE discipline group becomes aware of a concern, they consult with other NE groups, with the Pilgrim 2 Project, NOS, or the Principal Contractors, and . ascertain whether the concern is being or has been addressed in Pilgrim 2 design. If further action appears warranted, the BECo Pilgrim 2 Project request appropriate action by the Principal Contractor (s). ' From this point, nomal design control processes are used. Construction Experience For construction experience, the Bosten Edison Pilgrim 2 Project Construction Manager will be responsible to obtain and review construction experience. This responsibility is focused on obtaining and reviewing a) information uniquely available to Boston Edison or unlikely to be avr 7ble to the Principal Contractors, and b) information for aousting and monitoring of the Principal Contractors. The Project Construction fianager will use assistance from the Principal Contractors and from other Edison organizations as appropriate in the resolution of concerns. Construction concerns that affect plant design will be msolved in accordance with the project's normal design process.

c. Combusticn Engineering The designated experience review group within CE's Engineering Department obtains, reviews and evaluates documentation on operating, des',gn, and construction exoerience available within tne public domain, such as: Licensee Event Reports Operating Experience Reports, Nuclear Power Reliability Data Reports, NRC I&E Bulletins, Circulars, and Infomation Notices. This group also obtains and reviews data from industry sources and CE sources. For items of a potentially generic or rep'etitive nature, the experience review group requests the 1 cognizant engineering organization for evaluation and resolution.

Periodically, as well as after a specific occurrence, the specified review group apprises project managers and other C2 management by providing a sumary and description of the sig-nificant occurrences, generic problems, and the status of resolution for such deficiencies. By utilizing periodic sumary re-ts, the volume of the experience-related infomation is minimi;ed to allow notification of the cognizant individuals without providing an excessive amount of information, i O l IC-68 l l

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(1). O Feedback information of significance to Pilgrim 2 is l brought to the attention of the appropriate CE engineering, management, and field personnel through various paths of communication. In addition to the specified review group's dissemination of this information, the Project Manager pro-vides for the interfacing of experience infomation with O. Bechtel and Boston Edison when the information affects in-terfaces or is otherwise applicable. The periodic summary reports and the periodic audits of this program, which are part of CE's internal quality assurance program, provide reasonable assurance that the feedback of operating, design, O and construction experience is effective. Boston Edison or Bechtel addresses. the information received from CE as part of the normal design processes,

d. Bechtel Operations and Design Experience Both on and off project personnel have the responsibility to identify and resolve design and operations feedback concerns. Sources utilized for feedback include:
1. NRC Inspection and Enforcement Bulletins,

{qj Circulars and Notices 2 Licensee Event Reports

3. INP0/NSAC Significant Operating Experience Reports 4 Various Internal Bechtel Sources The design discipline groups are responsible to determine the applicability of the concern to the Pilgrim 2 project and for written disposition.

Significant experience feedback, if applicable, is also in-l corporated into generic engineering documents such as design s standards, guides and specifications. These generic engineering documents are utilized in developing project-specific documents. The Bechtel Pilgrim 2 project also reviews the periodic reports transmitted to them by CE on experience feedback from operating O CE plants and from Boston Edison based on its pilgrim 1 or other unique experience. Items applicable to Pilgrim 2 project will be resolved in the design or, if significant enough to warrant an Edison decision on the resolution, submitted to Edison for review and approval. O Such submittals may be in the form of design documents sub-mitted for Edison review (see response to 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(vii)), studies, or correspondence. Edison then reviews the Bechtel recomendation or disposition as described earlier. 1C-69

I AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(1)_ 1 Construction Experience The Bechtel Construction Engineering Staff obtains construction experience data through reports from the field, review of I&E Bulletins, Circulars and Infornation Notices, and review of construction practices at ,the var lous sites. The significant experience data obtained from these sources is conrnunicated to the site to alert construction personnel to potential problems

  • that may be encountered during the construction phase.

In addition, project-level construction reviews are held to discuss and avoid problems that may have arisen during con-struction or as a result of feedback. Problem resolutions are incorporated in the various construction-related manuals and instructions.

4. Avoidance of Extraneous and Unimportant Information; and
5. Aveidance of Conflicting or Contradictory Information Designated groups within each orgar.ization (Bechtel, CE, Edison) perform the assessment of internally- and externally-generated infomation on design, constructinn and operations-experience, as described above. These selecteo groups effectively perfom a
                                                               ~

screening function by determining whether items are routine or repetitive, serious, or generic in nature. This ensures that only those items that are of major concern receive insnediate attention. In addition, this central review minimizes contradictory direction to the project. Also, experience feedback infomation will be fed into the nomal design and construction processes, which have deliberate, step-by-step methods' that inherently minimize repetitive review or use of contradictory information. CE, Bechtel, and Boston Edison organizations have procedural controls of project infomation flow and work assignments, which will help insure the feedback process operates as described.

6. Practical Interim Audits Boston Edison will assure compliance with these requirements by monitoring and periodic audits of Boston Edison, Bechtel, and CE implementation of their programs. Edison audits the imple-mentation of experience feedback as part of their auditing of quality-related design and construction activities at Boston Edison and at the Principal Contractors.

As presently envisioned, the QA/QC activities (during construction) will be carried out in varying degrees by BECo, Bechtel, ASME, and NRC. BEco will maintain overall responsibility to overview proper implementation and the independence of QA/QC personnel. (C) Procedures' Approval l Quality related procedures related to design have been approved by QA; i for procedures related to construction, installation, preoperational ! testing, and operation, QA approval is already required. 1C-74 l i

(E) If the option chosen for hydrogch control is a distributed ignition system, equipment necessary for achieving and maintaining safe shutdown of the plant shall be designed to perform its function during and after being exposed to the environmental conditions created by activa-tion of the distributed ignition system. RESPONSE TO 10CFR50.54(e)(3)(v) DEGRADED CORE -- CONTAINMENT DESIGN (A) The Pilgrim 2 containment is designed so its integrity is maintained during an accident that releases hydrogen gemrated from 100% fuel clad metal-water reaction accompanied by hydrogen burning. Results of the containment design will be included in the FSAR. The preliminary containment design is in accordance with ASME Code, Section III, Division 2 for 60 psig, the containment design exceeds the minimum acceptance criteria in 10CFR50.34(e)(3) for liner plate strains at a containment pressure of 45 psig. In addition, a pre-1imir.ary analysis was performed on Pilgrim 2 to evaluate the use of combustion as a hydrogen control measure and to determine the con-tainment pressurization associated with a hydrogen burn. This analysis was based in part on the Lawrence Livermore Lab Report UCRL-84167,

       " Preliminary Results of Thennal Ignitor Experimer.ts in H2-Air-Steam Environments", January 1981. It was concluded from the April 20, 1981 43 preliminary report performed by Bechtel Power Corporation that con-tainment pressures associated with a hydrogen burn resulting from an equivalent of 100% fuel clad metal-water reaction will be less than the containment test pressure of 69 psig.

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 _10CFR50.34(e)(3)(v)_ A more detailed and comprehensive analysis, performed by the applicant, ' will consider the following important atpects of hydrogen be-n in the containment: a variety of accident sequences which are characterized O 1. by: a) being important risk contributors l l b) accident evolution times that are suffic.iently long to allow for practical cooling-recovery (e.g. S 20, S 2H)

2. Hydrogen and steam production and release rates (into the containment) will be analyzed with deterministic analysis based on the above described sequences or with parametric analysis to envelope these release rates. <

The systems necessary t6 ensure containment integrity will be  : designed to perfonn their function during and after being exposed to the environmental conditions executed by activation of the , t distributed ignition systems. The location of conponents associated with these systems and method O of protection (if required) will be described in the FMR. , (B) Based on the preliminary cnalysis discussed in the response to (A), it was concluded that with the use of a distributed hydrogen ignition system there is reasonable assurance that uniformly distributed r hydrogen concentrations can be controlled to 10% er less following an accident that releases hydrogen generated from 100% fuel clad metal-water reaction. f (C) A preliminary review of the current Pilgrim 2 facility was performed and there is reasonable assurance that with minor modifications that combustible concentrations of hydrogen will not collect in areas

  • where unintended combustion or detonation could cause loss of con-tainnent integrity or loss of appropriate mitigating features.

l The relatively open configuration of the Pilgrim 2 containment generally , serves to preclude pocketing of hydrogen. The Pilgrim 2 containnent, below the concrete deck level (El.100), is characterized by an annulus area between the containment wall and a concrete shield wall surrounding . the NSSS components. This area is divided by grating at elevation 28', l l 50' and 70'. At elevation 100', the concrete deck covers less than j half of the annulus area thereby providing good mixinq of the contain- , nent atmosphere between the annulus area and the area above elevation 96'. The shield wall and concrete floors are provided with numerous l vent paths which anhance mixing of the containment atmosphere. l The containment fan cooler system in conjunction with the containment spray system provide mixing of the containment atmosphere. The fan c  ! l I cooler system consists of four separate fan cooler units, three of which are operating at fast speed during normal operation. During j accident conditions all four fan coolers start and fun at half speed. The fan cooler system is described in PSAR Section 6.1.3. l IC-79 l

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(v)_ Convective mixing of the containment atmosphere as a result of containment spray system operation also serves to prevent any local pockets of hydrogen from developing. Although specific studies have not been done on hydrogen, a study by Battelle Northwest Labo atories, " Removal of Iodine and Particles from Containment Atmosphere by Sprays", February,1970, indicates that operation of containment sprays unifonnly distribute fission product gases. Consequently we believe that the hydrogen and containment will be well mixed by the operation of sprays and containment fan coolers. The review of containment to identify potential areas of hydrogen pocketing identified one area of potential pocketing. This area is just below the concrete deck at elevation 96' adjacent to the pressurizer compartment. The pressurizer compartment vents to this area under the deck where the pocketing of hydrogen in the spaces between structural steel beams could occur. Design modification will be made to prevent pocketing in this space by providing an escape flow path for the hydrogen or by installation of igniters to keep the hydrogen concentration below 100%. (D) Inerting as a hydrogen control measure is nct proposed for the Pilgrim 2 containment, therefore this item is not applicable. (E) The equipment required to maintain containment integrity and remove the heat generated by a degraded core will be designed and qualified to perforra during and after being exposed to the environmental conditions created by activation of the distributed ignition system. The location of comronents associated with these systems and method of protection (if required) will be described in the FSAR. O O l l 1C-80

(II.J.3.1) RESPONSETO10C.FR50.34(e)(3)(viil MANAGEMENT FOR DESIGN A CONSTRUCTION The following describes Boston Edison's program for management oversight of design and construction activities. (A) Organizational and Management Structure Boston Edison Company, being singularly responsible for the overall design, construction and operation of Pilgrim 2, has established a Nuclear Organization to manage and oversee the entire Project. PSAR Section 13 describes BECo's organization and management structure and details the scope of work and division of responsibilities for Pilgrim 2 Project, Nuclear Engineering Nuclear Operations, Nuclear Operations Support, and Planning, Scheduling and Cost Control. Quality Assurance's responsibilities and scope of work are fully described in PSAR Section 17. (B) Technical Resources Directed by the Utility i (1) Staffing Levels Prior to the start of Pilgrim 2 construction, Boston Edison has maintained an in-house staff equivalent to approximately 20 full-time engineers and managers to oversee the design and verify conformance with the applicable regulations, codes and design criteria. 1C-82 O l

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(vii) In specific cases where particular in-house engineering groups cannot meet a temporary work load, engineering consultants are contracted to work at BEco's offices, under the sole direction of Edison engineers and according p Q to BECo procedures. To support the construction staff of Pilgrim 2, Boston Edison currently estimates required staffing levels as shown in Table 1C.6 During the course of construction the Nuclear Organization's staff supporting Pilgrim 2 is forecasted to O increase from approximately 39 people to 244, as shown in Table IC-6. Of these,13 full-time field personnel will meet the responsibilities for Pilgrim 2 Project construction management oversight. During tne construction period, Nuclear Engineering and Nuclear Operations Support continue to provide design review and licensing support at the staffing levels shown in Table IC-6 Likewise, Quality Assurance will continue with their function as inspectors and auditors, which will include construction responsibilities. Additionally, the Nuclear Operations manpower schedule for the timely training of an operating staff is included in 43 Table IC 6 Boston Edison systematically develops manpower plans annually based on projected work requirements developed by cognizant managers. Adjustments to these manpower plans O are made periodically by the Vice President-Nuclear when justified by actual work experience. (2) Level of Education and Experience Boston Edison Company has and will continue to retain a highly trained and capable staff to meet the responsibilities of overseeing the design and construction of Pilgrim 2. Table IC-7 shows the average level of nuclear experience of the personnel supporting both Pilgrim 1 and Pilgrim 2 as approximately 8 years. Also shown on Table IC 7 is the wide range of technical ex-

    )                  pertise within the organization, covering all the major engineering disciplines plus some of the more highly specialized fields. When a technical issue arises that is outside the scope of the staff's engineering capabilities, f                       BECo obtains the outside services of experts to assist in resolving the issue.

(C) Details of the Interaction of Design and Construction Activities (1) General i The following supplements the material in PSAR Section 13.1, i I describing in more detail the interaction of design and con-d struction activities by Boston Edison and its principal con-tractors, Bechtel Power Corporation (Bechtel), Combustion I Engineering, Inc. (CE) for the nuclear steam supply system and General Electric Company (GE) for the turbine-generator. 1C-83

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(vii) The divisions of responsibility and the means of assuring close integration of Boston Edison, Bechtel, CE and GE in performance 9! of the work is established in contractual documents. These documents specifically include interface criteria between the nuclear steam supply system and the balance of plant. Boston Edison is ultimately responsible for the overa.11 design, construction, and operation of Unit 2 in accordance with NRC regulatory requirenents, including the Quality Assurance requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix B. Boston Edison's Nuclear Organization, described in PSAR Section 13.1.1.2, is responsible for providing management oversight of principal contractor activities, obtaining Federal licenses and permits, approving basic aesigo criteria, releasing selected design documents, and authorizing expenditure of funds. Boston Edison also retains stop work authority of contractor design and construction activities. Bechtel is responsible for project management, planning, cost control, engineering, procurement, construction, sub-contract administration, quality control, quality assurance, and post-construction testing in the balance of plant scope. Bechtel is also responrible for design interface control anong Bechtel, CE and GE and between Bechtel and its contractors. Bechtel is accountable to perform its services in accordance with all applicable Federal, State and local codes and regulations in-cluding the Quality Assurance requirements of 10CRF50 Appendix B. Boston Edison monitors and evaluates Bechtel's performance of these responsibilities by requiring Bechtel to obtain Boston Edison approval of the basic design criteria and Boston Edison's release of selected design documents prior to purchase or con-struction and Boston Edison's acceptance upon completion of construction. Combustion Engineering, Inc. (CE) is responsible for design and fabrication of the Nuclear Steam Supply System including preparation of design documents and procurement of related hardware. CE sub-mits system descriptions and other selected dasign documents to both Boston Edison and Bechtel. Boston Edison monitors and evaluates CE performance by review of these documents. Bechtel reviews these documents to ensure interface coordination between the NSSS and balance of plant. CE prepares: interface criteria; safety analyses; NSSS-related design information; test procedures, maintenance and operating procedures; spare parts recommendations; and technical support for NSSS installation. CE performs its services and pro-vides NSSS designs and equipment in accordance with all applicable Federal, State and local codes and regulations, including the Quality Assurance requirements of 10CFR50 Appendix B. Edison QA provides surveillance and auditing of the CE QA process. General Electric Co. (GE) is responsible for design and fabrication of the turbine-generator, which does not include activities subject to the Quality Assurance requirenents of 10CFR50 Appendix B. 1C-84

i AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 0 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(vii) (2) Oversight of Design Within Boston Edison's Nuclear Organization, described in PSAR Section 13.1.1.2 and graphically portrayed in PSAR Figures 13.1-1 and 13.1-2, the following org.anizational elements have responsi- i bility for management of oversight of contractor design and pro- 1 curement activities: the Pilgrim 2 Project, Nuclear Engineering, Nuclear Operations Support, and Quality Assurance. V Pilgrim 2 Project consists of a Project Manager and several project 4 engineers whose function is to manage the design, licensing, and procurement of Pilgrim 2. Pilgrim 2 Project reports to the Vice President-Nuclear, and is accountable to him for the cost, schedule and quality of Pilgrim 2. Pilgrim 2 Project manages the contracts for outside support, principally Bechtel, CE, and GE, and obtains internal Edison support, including several consultants. All technical direction from Boston Edison to the contractors is pro-vided through the Pilgrim 2 Project Engineers. Nuclear Engineering is the primary technical resource within Boston Edison in nuclear plant design. Separate groups within Nuclear Engineering provide a spectrum of technical expertise, including: Civil / Structural, Systens and Safety Analysis, Fluid Systems and O Mechanical Components (chemical and mechanical engineering), Power Systems, Control Systems, and Nuclear Analysis. Pilgrim 2 design review is performed by these groups based on assignments from the Pilgrim 2 Project Engineers. Nuclear Operations Support is responsible for providing technical support of Pilgrim 1, and operational input to and review of the Pilgrim 2 design. This includes the review of operating experience (see also the response to 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(1)). The Quality Assurance Manag2r reports to the Vice President-Nuclear and is accountable to him for establishing and maintaining adequate Quality Assurance controls for Pilgrim 2. Quality Assurance role in oversight of contractor design activities is described fully in PSAR Section 17. The Pilgrim 2 Project Engineers assign review to as many Nuclear Engineering and Nuclear Operations Support groups as appropriate, O with one group designated as the lead, and assures that the reviews m e documented, usually in outgoing correspondence to the contractors. The correspondence is prepared by the cognizant engineers, reviewed by appropriate NE & NOS groups, and signed by the appropriate Pilgrim 2 Project Engineer. Meetings and discussions with con-tractors are routinely utilized to assure close integration of Boston Edison, Bechtel and CE. 1C-85

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 1 10CFRbO.34(e)(3)(vii) Edison provides management oversight of design changes through the Project (inter-company) Procedures which specifically define l all mechanisms that the Principal Contractors can use for design changes. In addition to the specific Edis'on control aspects over design and procurement activities, Boston Edison monitors the quality, cost, and timeliness of other activities performed by the Principal Contractors. Management oversight of contractor design activities is facilitated by the issuance of several status and performance reports which are directed to various levels of management. Al so , copies of correspondence among contractors are sent to Boston Edison for information. Each of the organizational Elements (Pilgrim 2 Project, Nuclear Engineering, Nuclear Operations Support, and Quality Assurance) has its own set of procedures to govern its work, which includes the oversight of design activities. The procedures for the Pilgrim 2 Project establish the manner in which the project will obtain design review from Nuclear Engineering and thiclear Operations Support. These procedures specify how the review is initiated, usigned, and documented. In general, the Pilgrim 2 Project carages the review done by the technical groups, assures coordination of the review internally, and initiates contractor action in response to Edison review. The Pilgrim 2 Project is held accountable for manaoina the technical, financial, and schedular aspects of the design review. Nuclear Engineering and Nuclear Operations Support procedures control the design review perfomed by those respective groups. These procedures distinguish between the type of design docunent to be reviewed (conceptual design vs. detailed design) and the timing of the design review (initial review vs. review of changes). ( 3) Oversight of Construction The Boston Edison internal organization described in Section 13.1.1.2 includes Pilgrim 2 Project construction staff, the Site Construction QA group, and the NOS Construction fianagement Group (CMG) for manage-ment oversight of contractor construction activities on Pilgrim 1. The Pilgrim 2 Project group has responsibility for construction manacement oversight as described in PSAR Section 13.1.1.2. Reporting to the Pilgrim 2 Project Manager is the Project Construction fianager as shown on PSAR Figure 13.1-2. Reporting to him are a Field Subcontractors Administrator, Field Construction Superintendent, and Field EngineerinE Group Leader, and their respective staffs. IC-86

AMENDMENT 42 April 1, 1981 (" ( 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(vii) O The Project Construction Manager (PCM) and his staff are re-sponsible for construction oversight of contractor performance. The contractors and sub-contractors under Bechtel c6nstruction management are responsible for construction in a, manner that conforms to design quality requirements, controls costs, and meets schedule objectives. The PCl1 manages the interfaces among C the Principal Contractor (Bechtel) at the site, regulatoryThe agencies, and Boston Edison Pilgrim Unit #1 operations. PCH and his staff: monitor construction activities; approve schedules, field procumments, selected invoices, and other financial control; monitor compliance with pemit and license requirements; monitor procedure compliance; monitor coordination of Bechtel field engineering with Bechtel home office engineering staff; and coordinate Contractor turnover of plant systems to Edison Nuclear Operations. Quality Assurance responsibilities are described in Section 17 of this PSAR. In addition, QA provides construction oversight through the Site Construction QA Group which is responsible for monitoring the QA aspects of site construction, including: review of contractor site procedures; audits and surveillance of con-O struction; identification of quality problems and monitoring of their resolution; and acceptance reviews of components, constructed structures, and conpleted systems. The Site Construction QA Group interacts directly with Principal Contractor site organizations and with the Edison home office QA organization. The Nuclear Operations Support Construction Management Group (CMG) is responsible for Unit 1 i.odifications, preparation of the site for Unit 2 construction activities, and pre-construction environ-mental monitoring to confom to regulatory and pemit requirementi. The CMG interfaces through the Project Construction Manager to the Principal Contractors. Boston Edison will have approved procedums for construction manage-O ment and control prior to the start of each construction activity. l These procedures will reflect the organization and will confom to applicable regulatory requirements, contractual arrangements, and the Boston Edison Quality Assurance Manu31 (BEQAM). Procedures will er.ist for each organizational element involved in construction l oversight activities. O

AMENDMENT 43 April 29, 1981 10CFR50.34(e)(3)(vii) Transition to Operation 9 (D) Boston Edison has a single organization responsible for nuclear plant engineering and operation. This will greatly facilitate the transition from construction of Pilgrim 2 to operation. The Nuclear Engineering organization responsible for review and approval of plant design will continue as the technically cognizant expert resource after Pilgrim 2 operates, performing the same functions of engineering support as they do now for Pilgrim 1. The Nuclear Operations Support organization, which is reviewing the operational aspects of Pilgrim 2 design, also provides support to Pilgrim 1 and will similarly support Pilgrim 2. Quality Assurance and executive management functions also will remain the same during the transition. With respect to the operating staff itself, Boston Edison intends to employ the operatir.g staff with ample lead time for them to learn the plant design and operation, as discussed in PSAR Section 13.2 (also see Table 1C-6 of this Appendix). Furthermore, it is Boston Edison personnel policy to open new technical staff positions to internal staff and to encourage transfers within the organization. Thus, engineering and management personnel involved in Pilgrim 2 cesign and construction phases will be encouraged to transfer to Pilgrim 2 positions in Nuclear Operations as they are available, which will facilitate the transfer of expertise to Pilgrim 2 operation. Plant preoperation and startup testing will be accomplished by an integrated startup organization (BECo, Bechtel, CE) and managed by Boston Edison. An additional consideration is the NSSS supplier, Combustion Engineering 43 will provide the actual operating and maintenance procedures for the NSSS, not merely guidelines. This will help insure that plant procedures reflect the engineering expertise in plant design. These procedures will be reviewed and modified, as appropriate, by Edison's Nuclear Operations for acceptance sufficiently in advance of implementation to accomodate operator training and the opportunity for operations personnel to discuss the plant design features with design personnel. As noted earlier, Boston Edison plans a final review of key design documents (see PSAR Table 17.1-5) at the time of system turnover. This review will be led by Nuclear Engineering and will include Nuclear Operations and Nuclear Operations Support personnel, thus assuring that the installation meets regulatory requirements and that the design basis and design details are understood by operating personnel. In summary, Edison's internal organization and policies are such that a smooth transition to operation will be facilitated. IC-88

(E) Management Oversight , 7 Pilgrim Unit 2 corporate functions, responsibilities, and authorities are summarized in PSAR Section .13.1.1.1. Boston Edison, under a Joint Ownership Agreement with other utilities, has sole responsibility and is fully authorizad to act for the Joint Owners with respect to design, construction and operation of Unita, as well as to obtain all requisite licenses and pennits. Boston Edison's Executive Office exercises top level management over-O' sight by periodically reviewing the project status; setting policy for future activities; and holding a Pilgrim Unit 2 Executive Review Meeting on approximately a semi-annual basis. Executives of the Principal Contractors for NSSS and balance of plant are also present at the Executive Review Meetings, thus enabling the executives of all three companies to be periodically informed of the status of the project, management and technical issues, and plans for the future. The Executive Office also approves staffing comlements, and major procurements and contracts for architect-engineering services, the nuclear steam supply system, the turbine-generator, and nuclear fuel. Boston Edison's Vice President-Nuclear is the executive officer re-sponsible for design, construction and operation of all nuclear-fueled 4 O generation, including Pilgrim Station Units 1 and 2, including the Quality Assurance requirements of ICCFR50, Appendix B. For Unit 2, the VP-Nuclear authorizes all NRC licensing submittals, establishes the Nuclear Organizational structure and division of responsibilities, and approves the filling of each key staff position within the approved

 '             staffing complement. The VP-Nuclear delegates responsibilities within the Nuclear Organization as described in PSAR Section 13.1.1.2. He regularly reviews status and progress information, is informed of sig-nificant project decisions, issues, problems, and project plans for resolution of issues and problems through reports prepared by the Pilgrim 2 Project and the Principal Contractors.

The Pilgrim 2 Project group provides periodic / routine managers' reports to the VP-Nuclear, and to other Edison executives. These reports

       )       identify recent progress, current difficulties, and planned activity v          over the next reporting period. These reports insure that top-level executives are aware of major Pilgrim 2 Project activities. Quality Assurance also provides a quarterly report to the VP-Nuclear, reporting on QA activities (for both Pilgrim 1 and 2).

AMENDMENT 22 PS PSAR November 25, 1975 17.1.2.2.2 Implementation 9 The C-E Quality Assurance Program is deccribed in a Nuclear Quality Assurance Manual prepared, maintained and controlled by GSQA. A Policy Statement signed by the Power Systems Group President endorses the program and assigns responsibility for its implementation to the Director of General Services. The program encompasses all Power Systems Group organizations which contribute to quality of the product or services provided by C-E and in measurement of quality and performance. 3 Since the Director of GSQA is responsible for evaluating the suitability and effectiveness of the total QA Program, GSQA 017.3.1 exercises this authority through specific QA procedures as set 9 fo-th in paragraph 17.1.1.2.5. Such procedures require GSQA insolvement in tne review and acceptance of component specifications, purchase or manufacturing orders for equipment, vendor quality programs and operating procedures, manufacturing operations, in process surveillance, decisions on non-conformances, corrective actions, quality records, and audits. Stop work authority is exercised at any point by GSQA for non-compliance to contract requirements. The Design Quality Assurance Section (DQA) reports to the Director of Nuclear Services who does not report through the engineering or project groups, thus maintaining organizational , freedom. Audits are conducted by DQA of the Engineering and Analysis groups to verify compliance to the design control QA l program (see Section 17.1.3.2). . Implementation of the program is controlled by written policies, l procedures, instructions, and checklists. The major documents i which show C-E's response to the 18 criteria of 10CFR50, Appendix B are shown in a matrix and described in detail by Tables 17.1-10 and 17.1-11. 1 The blanks in Table 17.1-11 are mainly due to the fact that for l suppliers each of the 10CFR50 criteria does not have to be 017.3.2 addressed by more than one C-E procedure, and for C-E, only those criteria actually carried out by C-E are covered by referenced procedures. Since the C-E Quality Assurance Manual does address all criteria, this table could be corrected to show this manual in the "other" column for C-E and all other blank spots could be indicated as being either not applicable or not addressed. The footnote could then be deleted. Since C-E's Quality Assurance Program does not currently meet all aspects of the draft document published by the NRC entitled

           " Quality Assurance Information Requirements for PSAR" (undated),

certain policies and procedures will be revised to achieve I compliance. Table 17.1-12 identifies the affected documents and the planned schedule for incorporation. 22 l 17.1-46 l

Procurement Inspection Department procedures include provisions <-s for source surveys which are used in evaluating a supplier in ( j cases where the quality requirements of new work exceed those for which the supplier was previously qualified, in cases where new sources are being considered for selection, and in cases where no work or report has been generated during the previous year. Prior to award of a procurement concitment the following technical () and quality requirements must be met. A. Engineering determines that the source is responsive to the technical requirements of the specification. B. The Project Quality Engineer reviews the supplier's or subcontractor's quality assurance program for compliance with the procurement documents. The PQAE verifies and concurs that the supplier's or subcontractor's quality assurance program is capable of meeting the pertinent requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix B and that the supplier's quality assurance program adequately extends quality requirements to sub-tier suppliers.

   )  (In certain instances it may be necessary to award a procurement commitment without full completion of item B above.      In this case the requirements of item B will be met prior to the initiation of fabrication.)

These supplier evaluations are performed by review of: controlled program manuals previously submitted by the supplier and evaluated by qualified Bechtel personnel; previous records of bidder's performance; manuals and procedures submitted to Bechtel in connection with the specific procurement; or summary descriptions of the supplier's quality assurance program submitted with the proposa2. This review includes an evaluation in accordance with ANSI N45.2.13 as required by the BEQAM, Volume I, to assure that the supplier has the ability to comply with those \- requirements of 10CPR50, Appendix B and ANSI N45.2-1971 that are applicable to the type of material, equipment or services being procured. Manufactured or fabricated 0-listed items are subject to surveillance inspection and audit by the Bechtel Procurement h'I. Inspection Department. Project Engineering specifies the requirement for Bechtel shop inspection on Material Requisitions. Items which are typically excluded from the surveillance inspection are standard "off the shelf" commercial or previously approved materials, parts and equipment where required quality can f_s be adequately determined by receipt inspection or post-installation (/) m check-out or test. Surveillance inspection is performed on those 22 17.1-75

AMENDMENT 43 PS PSAR April 29, 1981 items where verification of procurement requirements cannot be determined upon receipt. Also excluded are materials where important physical and chemical properties are independently verified on samples taken at the point of shipment or at the point of receipt. For Q-list items Bechtel shop inspectors perform their inspection in accordance with Inspection Plans. These plans movide for the identification of witness and hold points, and identify the examinations and tests which must be performed or witnesst. by the Bechtel inspector These plans will be made available to BECo. BECo will be notified at inspection witness and hold points for which BECo elects to participate. Reports cocumenting inspections performed, tests witnessed and discrepancies observed are prepared by shop inspectors and distributed for review to appropriate Engineering, Construction, Procurement and Quality Assurance personnel. Bechtel shop inspectors are also responsible for reviewing and verifying supplier qualit3 assurance records, and for assuring that work is complete and documentation is in order prior to release for shipment. Bechtel surveillance inspections assure that supplier inspection practices as specified by Project Engineering meet the requirements of PSAR, Section 17.1.10. All items are examined and stored in accordance with Section 17.1.13.1. These examinations are performed by Field Procurement with the assistance of Field Engineering and Quality Control personnel. Receiving inspection practices assure that material, equipment, or components are properly identified and correspond with the receiving documentation; that records are judged acceptable in accordance with predetermined quality instructions prior to installation or use; that items accepted and released by supplier quality control and/or Bechtel Inspection are identified as to their inspection status and forwarded to a controlled storage area or released for installation or further work, as appropriate; that nonconforming items are held in a segregated controlled area and clearly identified uitil proper dicposition is made. For specified items, additioral examinations or tests are performed in accordance with field inspection plans. The examination may include inspections such as: spot checking of critical dimensions and weld end preparation configuration; taking of random samples for independent tests; checking inert gas pressurization; examination of cleanness; and insulation recistance tecting. 43 Receiving inspections are performed by Ouality Control in accordance with material receiving instructions and inspection plans under the supervision of field Quality Control. Receiving inspection practices conform with the applicable provisions of ANSI N45.2.2-1972. Documentary evidence that the item conforms to procurement 38 documents required to be available at the construction site prior to installation or use as a conforming item, includes as follows: 22 17.1-76
