The applicant is expected to implement QA measures equivalent in substance to the measures described in Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50.

Consistent with the staff position described above, please describe the QA measures applied to Exelons ESP activities.
Your description should be of sufficient detail to support staff review of your QA measures in accordance with Section 17.1.1 of RS-002 and should contain the following information:
1.
A description of Exelons implemented QA measures applied to site characterization data collection and analysis.

Copies of Exelons procedures used to implement QA measures. These should include procedures/instructions referenced by the Exelon QA program document and procedures used by Exelon for supplier qualification.
3.
