Jack Parrott and Chris AllenIn accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3) and 10 CFR 50.4(b)(7),
we are required tosubmit a copy of changes to the Rancho Seco Quality Manual (RSQM) that do notreduce commitments in the quality assurance program previously accepted by theNRC. Changes to the quality program that do not reduce commitments in theprogram can be made without prior NRC approval.
During calendar year 2015, we revised the RSQM to reflect changes to thecorporate organization.
Specific portions of the RSQM that were revised include:1.2.3.4.5.Quality Assurance PolicyRSQM Chapter I "Organization" RSQM Chapter II "Quality Assurance Program"RSQM Chapter XVIII "Audits"Appendix A "10 CFR 50 Administrative Controls" The safety evaluation associated with these changes concluded that these changesdid not reduce any commitments and did not require prior NRC approval.
The RSQMcontinues to implement the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B and 10CFR Part 72, Subpart G. The individuals and organizations performing qualityassurance functions continue to have sufficient authority, organizational freedom,and independence from cost and schedule issues./¶Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station I14440 Twin Cities Road I Herald, GA 95638-9799 I 916.452.3211 Ismud.org DPG 16-002The document is being provided in its entirety because it does not include a List ofEffective Pages.

1.4.3.1 Radioactive Effluent Controls ProaramThere are no longer any radioactive liquid or gaseous effluents discharged from the site. The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual(ODOM) has been reduced in scope and the associated administrative and implementing procedures have been deleted.
TheODCM will require that if radioactive effluents need to be released inthe future, a program must be implemented that meets therequirements in 10 CFR 50.36a, 20.1301, 20.1302, 10 CFR Part 50,Appendix I, and any other applicable regulations 1.4.3.2 Radioloqical Environmental Monitoringq Progqram (REMP)There are no longer any liquid or gaseous radioactive effluents discharged from the site. The radiation source term is limited toradioactive materials stored in the Interim Onsite Storage Building(IOSB) and the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI).Accordingly, the only exposure pathway is by direct radiation.
With the completion of the first phase of decommissioning, the directradiation pathway is the only pathway still monitored by the REMP.Accordingly, there is no longer any requirement to participate in anInter-laboratory Comparison Program (ICP). The vendor supplying the direct radiation monitoring devices must be certified under aNational Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP).
TheNational Institute of Standards and Technology (NI1ST) administers the NVLAP, which provides third-party accreditation to testing andcalibration laboratories.
1.4.4 The changes to the REMP shall be reviewed and approved as set forthin Sections 1.1 and 1.9.

Jack Parrott and Chris AllenIn accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a)(3) and 10 CFR 50.4(b)(7),
we are required tosubmit a copy of changes to the Rancho Seco Quality Manual (RSQM) that do notreduce commitments in the quality assurance program previously accepted by theNRC. Changes to the quality program that do not reduce commitments in theprogram can be made without prior NRC approval.
During calendar year 2015, we revised the RSQM to reflect changes to thecorporate organization.
Specific portions of the RSQM that were revised include:1.2.3.4.5.Quality Assurance PolicyRSQM Chapter I "Organization" RSQM Chapter II "Quality Assurance Program"RSQM Chapter XVIII "Audits"Appendix A "10 CFR 50 Administrative Controls" The safety evaluation associated with these changes concluded that these changesdid not reduce any commitments and did not require prior NRC approval.
The RSQMcontinues to implement the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B and 10CFR Part 72, Subpart G. The individuals and organizations performing qualityassurance functions continue to have sufficient authority, organizational freedom,and independence from cost and schedule issues./¶Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station I14440 Twin Cities Road I Herald, GA 95638-9799 I 916.452.3211 Ismud.org DPG 16-002The document is being provided in its entirety because it does not include a List ofEffective Pages.

With regard to Section 2.4 of Supplement 17S-1 titled Index: The phrase "anindex" is clarified to mean a collection of documents or indices which, when takentogether, supply the information attributed to "an index" in the standard.
The specific location of a record "within a storage area" may not be delineated (e.g., the specific location within a computer record file may not be constant;
- further, SMUD may utilize a computer assisted random access filing systemwhere such location could not be readily "documented,"
or would such a locationbe "relevant.")
The storage location will be delineated, but where file locations change with time, the specific location of a record within that file may not alwaysbe documented.
With regard to Section 4.3, Supplement 17S-1 titled Safekeepincq:
Routine generaloffice and nuclear site security systems and access controls are provided:
Nospecial security systems are required to be established for record storage areas.With regard to Section 4.4, Supplement 17S-1, titled Facility:
This Sectionprovides no distinction between temporary and permanent facilities.
To covertemporary
- storage, the following clarification is added: "Records completed butnot yet transferred for permanent storage may be temporarily stored in one-hourfire rated file cabinets.
In general, records shall not be maintained in suchtemporary storage for more than four months after completion without beingmicrofilmed or placed in permanent storage.
Open-ended documents revised orupdated on a more-or-less continuing basis over an extended period of time (e.g.personnel qualification and training documents, equipment history cards) whichare cumulative in nature (e.g. nonconforming item logs and control room logbooks) shall become QA records when they are issued as a specific revision (e.g.the master audit schedule);
when they are filled-up or discontinued (e.g. log booksor equipment history cards); on a predefined periodic basis when the completed portion of the ongoing document shall be transferred to records control as a"record" (e.g. training and qualification records).

1.4.3.1 Radioactive Effluent Controls ProaramThere are no longer any radioactive liquid or gaseous effluents discharged from the site. The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual(ODOM) has been reduced in scope and the associated administrative and implementing procedures have been deleted.
TheODCM will require that if radioactive effluents need to be released inthe future, a program must be implemented that meets therequirements in 10 CFR 50.36a, 20.1301, 20.1302, 10 CFR Part 50,Appendix I, and any other applicable regulations 1.4.3.2 Radioloqical Environmental Monitoringq Progqram (REMP)There are no longer any liquid or gaseous radioactive effluents discharged from the site. The radiation source term is limited toradioactive materials stored in the Interim Onsite Storage Building(IOSB) and the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI).Accordingly, the only exposure pathway is by direct radiation.
With the completion of the first phase of decommissioning, the directradiation pathway is the only pathway still monitored by the REMP.Accordingly, there is no longer any requirement to participate in anInter-laboratory Comparison Program (ICP). The vendor supplying the direct radiation monitoring devices must be certified under aNational Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP).
TheNational Institute of Standards and Technology (NI1ST) administers the NVLAP, which provides third-party accreditation to testing andcalibration laboratories.
1.4.4 The changes to the REMP shall be reviewed and approved as set forthin Sections 1.1 and 1.9.
