loma for those independent review personnel who are required to review problems in administrative control and QA practices, training, and 17.5-15 Revision 1 – August 2015 emergency plans and related procedures and equipment. • Minimum experience: 5 years’ experience in their own area of responsibility (nuclear power plant operations, nuclear engineering, chemistry and radiochemistry, metallurgy, nondestructive testing, instrumentation and control, radiological safety, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering, administrative control and QA practices, training, and emergency plans and related procedures and equipment). C. DESIGN CONTROL AND VERIFICATION (Criterion III) 1. A program is required to describe the design control measures that ensure (1) applicable regulatory requirements, codes and standards, and design bases for safety-related structures, systems, and components are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions; (2) appropriate quality standards are specified in design documents; and (3) deviations from such standards are controlled. 2. Organizational responsibilities are described for preparing, reviewing, approving, and verifying design documents such as system descriptions, design input and criteria, design drawings, design analyses, computer programs, specifications, and procedures. 3. Design records, maintained to provide evidence that the design was properly accomplished, include not only the final design output and revisions to the final output, but also the important design steps (e.g., calculations, analyses, and computer programs) and the sources of input that support the final output. 4. Design analysis documents are legible and in a form suitable for record keeping. They are sufficiently detailed as to purpose, method, assumptions, design input, references, and units such that a person technically qualified in the subject can review and understand the analyses and verify the adequacy of the
