5.4 DESIGN VERIFICATION 5.4.1 Design verification processes such as design review, alternate calculations, and qualification testing shall be accomplished in accordance with approved procedures.

5.4.2 If design verification is by other than qualification testing, it shall normally be completed prior to drawing release. In cases where this cannot be done and design verification is deferred, the justification for such action shall be documented and the unverified portion of the design appropriately identified and controlled. Design verification shall be complete prior to relying upon the structure, system, or component to perform its safety related function.

5.4.3 Design revi(ws shall address the following items, where l applicable. to assure that: I

a. The design inputs were correctly selected: ,

b. The assumptions necessary to perform the design activity are adequately described and are reasonable;

c. Applicable codes, standards, and specifications were utilized:

1. Appendix B to 10CFR50 - 1. Criterion VII. Control of

" Quality Assurance Criteria Purchased Materials. Equipment.

for Nuclear Power Plants and and Services states that Fuel Reprocessing Plants" documentary evidence that material and equipment conform to the procurement requirements shall be available at the nuclear power plant or fuel reprocessing plant site prior to installation or use of such material and equipment.

The Waterford 3 Quality Assurance Program requires that required documentary evidence be available at the site prior to use. but not necessarily prior to installation.

This allows installation to proceed under specified conditions while any missing documents are being obtained, but precludes dependence on the item for safety purposes.
