Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Request for AdditionalInformation NRC Soccific Comments and GPC Faunonse NRC specific comments:
1.
The licensee's Quality Assurance Program for training, qualification and documentation for the selected maintenance personnel should address the requirements and qualification identified in IWA-2321, VISUAL ACUITY.
2.
The licensee should provide a comparison of the visual requirements and qualifications of its maintenance personnel selected for visual examinations and the requirements and qualifications contained in IWA-2321, F7SUAL ACUITY.
GPC response:
Snubber inspections and tests at Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant are performed in i
accordance with plant procedures 52SV-SUV-001-0S and 52SV-SUV-002-0S. Step 4.3.14 in each procedure states; " Personnel performing inspections must have a current acceptable Eye Examination per 45QC-PQL-003-0S." 45QC-PQL-003-0S is the site QC procedure which contains the requirements for personnel eye examinations. This procedure satisfies all of the requirements of ASME XI, paragraph IWA-2321.
Therefore, while not specifically stated so in relief request RR-11, the maintenance personnel who perform the snubber inspections are required to have a periodic (annual) eye examination which meets the requirements of ASME XI, paragraph IWA-2321.
