Resumes of the appointees to key plant managerial positions areprovided in Attachment 2. Shift Supervisor level information hasbeen previously provided to NRC as part of operator licensing andis not included here.
1.4 Review and Audit
Operating phase activities that affect nuclear safety are reviewed andaudited. The review and audit program is implemented prior to initialfuel loading and ensures proper review and evaluation of proposedchanges, tests, experiments, and unplanned events. The programcomplies with the requirements of Paragraph 50.59 of 10CFR50 relatingto proposed changes, tests, and experiments and is conducted followingthe recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Quality AssuranceProgram Requirements (Operation), as discussed in Section 1.8. TheExecutive Vice President-ANPP has overall responsibility for safeoperation of PVNGS.
The Plant Managers have onsite responsibility for safe operation ofPVNGS. They are kept abreast of each unit's operating conditions bytheir department managers in the areas of operations, maintenance,work control, radiation protection and chemistry who are knowledgeableand experienced in their areas of job responsibility. Thesedepartment managers perform timely and continuing monitoring ofoperating and maintenance activities as part of their normal jobduties.
In addition, a formal review and audit program is carried out forchanges to systems, procedures, tests, and experiments and for theafter-the-fact review and evaluation of unplanned events that affectnuclear safety. This program is implemented through staff review,Plant Review Board, Independent Safety Engineering Group (ISEG), andan offsite Nuclear Safety Group (NSG).
1.4.1 Onsite Review
Onsite review is performed by the Plant Review Board (PRB) whichhas the responsibility to review plant activities andadministrative controls as related to nuclear safety. A detaileddescription of the PRB is provided in the PVNGS TechnicalSpecifications as part of the description of administrativecontrols.
The PRB is composed of those individuals specified in the PVNGSTechnical Specifications. Collectively, they possess the type anddegree of expertise required to properly review proposed changes tosystems, procedures, tests, experiments, and unplanned events thateffect nuclear safety. The PRB meets at least once per calendarmonth and maintains written minutes of each meeting, which arereviewed by the Nuclear Safety Group.
