SUMMARY
SUBCATEGORY / ELEMENT 201.6 The issues identified in this element refer to possible programmatic deficiencies having to do with availability and traceability of design input.
The issues are documentation and records related.
The documentation and records requirements stipulated by 10CFR50 Appendix B, and ANSI N45.2.9, are reflected in the appropriate engineering procedures.
The procedures were reviewed and in general were found adequate. These procedures place the responsibility for creation of engineering records on all professional employees of the Office of Engineering.
Investigation to date has revealed that in some cases the issues are valid.
Examples of some missing or inadequate design criteria are addressed in Sequoyah Element Reports 201.3 and 213./Sas restart issues. Examples of some procedural shortcomings are noted in the area of calculations and are addressed in Sequoyah Element Reports 205.1 and 205.2 as restart issues.
These findings then represent programmatic deficiencies that must be, and are being, formally addressed as needed improvements in the design process.
i' The fact that documentation rather than hardware is addressed in this element, provides some latitude in determining when necessary corrective measures should be completed. Also, there are " checks-and- balances," such as inspection and testing, which can ensure that necessary safety aspects are evaluated and corrected, as required, on a case by case basis.
TVA is aware of the need for traceability of design input and has instituted corrective measures at Sequoyah, such as the program for development of design basis documents and the Design Baseline and Verification Program (DBVP).
These programs have both prerestart and postrestart phases. Walkdown/ test ,
data which is compared to the licensing basis criteria as part of the DBVP, should mitigate any conditions adverse to safety.
Items requiring resolution prior to restart are addressed accordingly in the above noted Sequoyah element reports and programs, and are controlled in accordance therewith. Additional program control is attained through Engineering Assurance surveillance.
Completion of the postrestart phases of the above noted Sequoyah programs will provide any other needed programmatic enhancements in the design process relating to design input traceability.
