surance code requirements should be supplemented by the specific guidance addressed in the regulatory positions of the applicable Regulatory Guides. The commitment identifies the Regulatory Guides and ANSI standard by number, title, and revision or date. Any alternatives or exceptions are clearly identified and supporting information presented in the docket. QA Regulatory Guides should be addressed which'have an implementation date prior to the submittal or docket date of the QA program description. Although primary responsibility for Regulatory Guides 1.26 and 1.29 is assigned to ASB (SRP Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2), their use as acceptance criteria in this SRP section is. necessary to assure that 17.1-9 Rev. 2 - July 1981 adequate quality assurance requirements are specified for systems, components, and structures addressed by those guides. The QA organization and the necessary technical organizations participate early in the QA program definition stage to determine and identify the extent QA controls are to be applied to specific structures, systems, and components. This effort involves applying a defined graded approach to certain structures, systems, and com- ponents in accordance with their importance to safety and affects such disciplines as design, procurement, document control, inspection tests, special processes, records, audits, and others described in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B. 2B4. Existing or proposed QA procedures are identified reflecting that Regulatory Guides listed in subsection VI, General Design Criterion 1 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, 10 CFR Part 50, §50.55a, and each criterion of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B will be met by documented procedures. In addition, activities conducted under 10 CFR Part 50, §50.55(e) shall conform to the requirement of the QA program. 2B5. A description is provided that emphasizes how the docketed QA program description, particularly the 10 CFR Part 50 regulations and Regulatory Guides listed in subsection V, will
