P.O. Box 840 Denves, CO 80201- 0840 OSCAR R. LEE Ji - 3 OD- VICE PRESIDENT June 25, 1985 Fort St. Vrain Unit No. 1 P-85216 Regional Administrator Region IV U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 611 Ryan Plaza Drive, Suite 1000 Arlington, TX 76011 Attention: Mr. Eric Docket No. 50-267 SUBJECT: Response to Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance REFERENCE: NRC Letter from Mr. R. D. Martin to Mr. O. R. Lee dated May 7, 1985 (G-85171)

Dear Mr. Johnson:

-

This letter formally transmits our response to the Systematic .

Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) report for the period 1 October 1, 1984 through February 28, 1985. At our meeting at Fort St. Vrain on May 29, 1985, we provided each NRC attendee a . binder which summarizes our response and describes the Performance Enhancement Program (PEP) which was initiated in early April, 1985, i It is our view that the programs defined in the PEP and other recent I organizational changes address those areas requiring improvement per the SALP evaluation.

Based upon the SALP report and several other recent audits and evaluations, we have accepted that changes in our operations are necessary to strengthen our performance. We have already taken corrective action in most areas and have made several organizational changes. In addition, seventy-nine new personnel have been approved for the nuclear organization. 7

Enclocad iQ tha Nucloer Parformmnca Enhanecmant Progrcm that was provided at the SALP meeting. It includes an outline of our SALP meeting -discussions, organizational changes, the PEP Schedule, key materials from our PEP Project Manager's Binder, and activities in progress division-by-division.

At the SALP meeting, PSC agreed to provide the NRC with quarterly updates, .as desired, on our Performance Enhancement Program activities. The first status report covering the period of April and May 1985 is being provided by separate correspondence.

We trust that this information more than adequately responds to the '

SALP. findings.

Sincerely,

Overview of PSC Position

  • SALP represents a summary assessment over a seventeen month period, ending February 28, 1985.
  • At the end of this period, we have initiated many changes that obviously would not have- impacted our performance assessment evaluation.
  • These changes are responsive'to SALP findings, the NRC Audit Report, and the Management Assessment Report.
  • We have accepted that changes in our operation are necessary.

<

' * The cornerstone of our change is The Performance Enhancement Program.

We have made improvements in our organization.

s organizational Chances

  • You may refer to Section II, Nuclear Organization )

Charts for details of our organization and the additional personnel being added.

  • The . key point is that the changes have been identified and are being implemented (or have been in the last six months).
  • Mr. Oscar Lee now reports to R. F. Walker, President and Chief Executive Officer.
  • A Nuclear Licensing and Fuels Division has been established. This group is the' focal point for all NRC interface matters and licensing issues.

Regular bi-weekly meetings with-the NRC staff are being held.

  • Management. of the divisions has been strengthened through a reorganization that capitalizes on individual's strengths.
  • A General Manager for the Fossil Production Divisions was created to -consolidate this function under one person.
  • Mady other divisional organization changes have or

- are being made. These are described in more detail in Section V, Divisional Activities.

Additional' Personnel

  • A deliberate and conservative approach was taken in approving.this substantial increase.
  • They will enhance the capabilities of all divisions.
  • A major commitment has been made to training in

< general and achieving full INPO accreditation for the' Nuclear Production staff.

  • * Key Licensing personnel are being obtained that have: light water reactor experience to assist in relating regulations to our HTGR.
  • Plant Engineering staff is being added to increase attention to preventive maintenance and-engineering analysis of plant equipment.
  • Design Engineering staff is being increased to provide more effective control and coordination of change and modifications as well as provide a more

. effective response time for plant support.

- * A Master Planning and Scheduling function will assist Management'in prioritizing and directing the nuclear activities.

  • Quality Assurance staff is increased to provide

'

greater coverage - to audits, training and inspections.

  • Greater detail of these additions are in Section II, Nuclear Organization Charts.

- * Naturally, it will take time for~this organization to be brought on board and become an- integral, productive part of our organization.

A. PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM

'

.I. -INTRODUCTION In .PSC's March 29, 1985, response to the NRC, we amplified l'

.an Action Plan that pertained to addressing- .several.

'

management.and operational concerns at Fort St..Vrain.-

Attached ~to-that' response.were: additional. details describing oix overall projects.(and associated sub-projects) that have been defined as the initial start-up of the Performance Enhancement' Program (PEP). Each sub-project-(from hereon is referred to: as. a project) is identified with the. person responsible.and the targeted completion dates. .

.

A summary bar chart-schedule was prepared to summarize the' projects.

Performance to this schedule will be monitored as part of the' Master Planning and Scheduling function that is being established.

The. Performance Enhancement Program has been established to identify, monitor,.and coordinate several projects that are opecifically -designed to increase. the overall conduct of sperations at Fort St. Vrain. .

'

The Mission'of this program is as follows:

+

"To assign and complete activities that will improve the overall quality, management ~and operation of the Public Service Nuclear Organization in a controlled, timely manner. Progress will lue monitored by the PEP Manager / Master Planning.and Scheduling func, tion.. The function will provide Senior Management the ability to ,

-

make ' proper decisions for allocation of resources and the prioritization of commitments.at the appropriate time and.in the proper manner."

.

The Performance Enhancement- Program will start with six

.overall initial projects which encompass PSC concerns, NRC concerns,-the-recommendations from;the Management Assessment Raport, and corrective. actions that were already underway.

The
six initial projects'are as follows: ,

l

'

PROJECT I - ORGANIZATIONAL CONCERNS i i .The purpose of this project is to. address the concerns E raised in the Management Assessment Report and Section 4 -of. the NRC's letter of October 16, 1984 pertaining to the management,of the PSC Nuclear Organization.

- .

The . actions taken, or in progress, to resolve organizational concerns include restructuring the

> Electric: Production organization to-enhance.the span i of control:of the Vice President, Electric Production; establishment of a Performance Enhancement Program for

,

-development of

,

the. Nuclear ' Organizations; mission ands

-

, ~

I- organizational charters. .to include

function' statements concurrent with. updating of

'

related procedures, policies and guidelines:
development of a policy.to formalize the transfer' of

'

information .and communication throughout the nuclear '

' organization; and identification and augmentation of ,

i additional resource and manpower requirements for the

! nuclear organizations.

.

an analysis will- be undertaken to

'

Additionally, determine the feasibility of relocating the Nuclear Division and the Licensing and Fuel

Engineering l

,

Division to the Fort St. Vrain site.

i -PROJECT II - MASTER PLANNING AND SCHEDULING

This. project will establish a Master Planning and'

Scheduling function within the Nuclear organization. ,

l The- function's purpose will 'be to provide senior.'

j management attention to major project activities and'

, provide a mechanism to prioritize planned' projects,

,.

allocate resources, and monitor status and schedule of;1 . ,

, each project. The function will coordinate the ,

activities of the four nuclear divisions to insure" ,

I adequate resources are assigned and available to j scheduled projects in addition.to normal workloads, of ,'

i non-project tasks. An overalt schedule of projects

and events will be defined covering l the s her.t , -and

-

! long-term (two to three years).

ESTABLISH PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PLANNING AND SCHEDULING 1 I

This -project- will take .the'

maintenance program and incorporate a planning and existing preventive j>

. scheduling function._ The function will adapt current procedures and computer systems to specifically define maintenance activities, 'in relation to estimated

-

manpower requirements by skill, required equipment, tools, and materials. Maintenance tasks- will be-

' scheduled based upon-engineered frequencies and upon available- resources. Priorities 'will- be set and evaluated by plant management.. Scheduling of maintenance will insure-that a significant amount cf time is still. made availablef for- emergency. or unplanned maintenance. Scheduling will also consider the- needs of planned outage or construction activities. This program willo interface - with the Master. Planning- and Sc.heduling function, as appropriate for major preventive' maintenance programs.

.

PROJECT IV - UPGRADE NUCLEAR POLICIES'AND PROCEDURES This project' involves six sub-projects, and addresses the development of or revisions to procedures affecting'the Nuclear organization.

This includes design change / modification procedures and attendant safety evaluations- as well as prioritizing implementation tasks;-implementation of'a commitment. control program and. attendant procedures; documentation of policies and' procedures used in determining commitments; a review' of essential regulatory documents to define items PSC;must~ address; an upgrade program for operating, maintenance, and modification procedures; and:the review and' revision

. of exclusion list documents involved in the procurement process.

PROJECT V -

IMPROVE MANAGEMENT AND NUCLEAR DIVISION PERSONNEL TRAINING

~

Public Service Company of Colorado recognizes the'need for highly. trained and well qualified management 'and

'

technical personnel in order to safely.and efficiently operatefthe Fort.St. Vrain Nuclear-Generating Station.

In order to provide this resource, PSC-is implementing

.new training programs and improving existing programs..

In concert'with our. corporate Training and Development.

Department, PSC is upgrading the management -skills

.

program to_ provide an individualized program for each

, participant by assessing strengths'and weaknesses and applying tailor-made improvement programs. PSC is assessing the current level of involvement of the Nuclear Organization staff in various industry groups, with the goals to improve their understanding of common industry problems. and solutions'and increase their awareness of events external to Public Service

-

Company of Colorado.

Training in each of the four Divisions supporting Fort St. Vrain - Nuclear Production, Quality Assurance, Nuclear _ Engineering, and Nuclear Licensing and Fuels -

I will be strengthened greatly. Public Service Company of Colorado has committed to achieve INPO accreditation of the training programs, primarily in

'

the Nuclear Production Division. PSC is firmly committed to a comprehensive training program for all personnel associated with Fort St. Vrain. Significant progress has been .made toward INPO accreditation.

Consistency in the training programs within the Nuclear Production Division is being acecmplished by consolidating the program under the Support Service Manager at Fort St. Vrain.

PROJECT VI - PLANT CONDUCT OF OPERATIONS This project will address specific improvements-within j the Nuclear Production Division to improve its conduct of operations. These activities were not identified by the Management Assessment Report, but are . based upon NRC concerns and concerns of. PSC operations management. The purpose of these activities is to correct the root causes of various NRC observations, most importantly in the area of failure to follow

. PERFORMANCE EN1-ANCEMENT PROGRAM

! l l

PROJECT MANAGER RESPONSIBILITIES l

!

)

Essentially, a Project Manager is responsible for completing i his/her project on schedule,.within the proper scope, and in a quality manner. The PEP Manager / Master Planning and ,

Scheduling function will assist you in the planning, scheduling and . monitoring:of yours and other PEP prajects.

Each Project Manager must follow some proven project i management techniques. Key ones applicable to this program are described below.

1. Develoement of Project Work Plans and Schedules j l

Prior to any work on the project, a work plan should be prepared. The plan should define the desired L deliverables' (the and product such as procedures,

,

policies, documents, etc) , the detailed step-by-step work tasks (or activities), manpower estimates (man-days of "doing" time), persons and/or skills required

, for each task, and the sequence in which the tasks i- (prerequisites and interdependancies) will be j completed. Based upon the resources available, the

' overall project schedule can be prepared. Key

. milestones and their deliverables are identified and I then tracked by both the Project Manager and the PEP Manager / Master Planning and Scheduling function. It

is the responsibility of the Project Manager to communicate the. status of his project.

I 2. Control of Deliverables I The. Project Manager should carefully ' identify and monitor the preparation of deliverables or end Depending upon the scope of work, control

~ ~

products.

i schedules- should be prepared. . For example, for Project III.3 -

Develop Preventive Maintenance

'

Engineering Program, a detail schedule of the

.

procedures being developed (or revised) -should be

- prepared. It would show the procedure, the estimated i manpower, person responsible for the procedure and the status- (e.g., preliminary draft, technical . review; completed). The control' schedule would be constantly

<

. updated by. the Project Manager. It is the responsibility of the Project Manager to insure the deliverable is_in the highest state of quality and is

,

accurate . - This- includes scheduling for independent

,

_ reviews, graphics, printing, etc.

3. Obtaining Resources for Proiect Tasks The .. Project Manager is responsible for getting the proper manpower, equipment, and materials to complete  :

'

, all project tasks. In some cases, these resources

-

will be from other divisions or departments and the

Project Manager _ will have to work through the proper

,

division or department head in order to obtain -the desired resources.- Should a problem surface at this point, the PEP Manager / Master Planning and Scheduling function will be involved to work out priorities and line- management will obtain additional divisional resources as required.

4. Revising Project Work Plans J

Any changes _'to the project scope or tasks should be reflected in current work plans. Additicnally,

modified or deleted tasks (with justification) should i be included in an updated Work Plan. The revisions affecting the overall schedule and milestones should

,

be then.provided to the Master Planning and Scheduling i function.

5. Recort Proiect Status The Project Manager must report the status of the

project on a monthly _ basis in writing.. . Status reports
will be submitted as deemed necessary by the Project 4 Manager and the PEP Manager / Master Planning and Scheduling function, but not less than at the end of

. each month. The format . identified in Section- A.V.

! should be utilized.- ~ Additionally, progress should be indicated on the Current' Schedule computer printout by activity showing for each percent complete, change in duration, additional activities representing delay items, or modified prerequisities.

'

The first status report is due Tuesday,-April 30, 1985 and the second on-Wednesday, May' 15,'1985.

PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM

,

VI. SPECIFIC-GUIDELINES AND INSTRUCTIONS 1. Project Description:

Review for accuracy and completeness. Insure that the project is a real one and has a priority for

-

completion. Understand fully what the end product er deliverable will be, what form it should be in, and when is-it required.

2. Project Work Plans:

Review for accuracy in terms of completeness and that all key activities have been identified. When scheduling' individual work plan activities insure that prerequisites are identified and .that each activity has a duration in terms of elapsed workine days (or weeks).

I 3. Project Schedule:

This relates closely to Item 2 above.but clarifies that durations of individual activities should not be keyed directly to man-day estimates but should allow for the fact that an individual may not be able toi concentrate all of his efforts at one time. For

-

i example: Writing a procedure may take 2 man-days of effort spread out over a 10 working day period. You

.

should then use 10 working days as the duration of the

! activity.

i

'

Also, insure each deliverable has an identifiable milestone. The activities should be reviewed and

. milestones identified.

[

4. Project' Status Report:

'

Submit " Project Status Report" on a periodic basis

! -(minimum once/ month) with " Current Schedule" marked up

, in red to reflect changes in duration, percent complete, and/or activity description. The " Project Status Report" 'should be filled out showing work completed (by task, ID number /name, when and by whom),

the planned activities for immediate werk to be

,

accomplished, and any problems encountered. Problems encountered- may range from a lack of. resources, changed priorities,. incomplete prerequisities er any-item that will. affect your ability to meet the
