rvices that affect the quality of nuclear power plants, including spare and replacement parts. The standard, however, does not provide "requirements" specific to spare and replace- ment parts. Section 5.2.13 of ANSI N 18.7-1976/ANS 3.2, "Administrative Controls and Quality Assurance for the Operational Phase of Nuclear Power Plants," which is endorsed by Regulatory Guide 1.33, "Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation)," addresses control of spare and replace- ment parts during the operations phase of nuclear power plants. As a result, the provisions of Section 5.2.13 of ANSI N18.7-1976 related to control of spare and replacement parts are considered ap- plicable and should be used in conjunction with the provisions of ANSI N45.2.13-1976. 6. In addition to the requirements of the standard, the guidelines (indicated by the verb "should") iden- tified below are considered to have sufficient safety importance to be treated the same as the require- ments of the standard. a. Section 4.2.a-The guidelines used in evaluating the Supplier's history of providing a product that performs satisfactorily in actual use. b. Section 6.2-The guideline concerning purchaser notification points as part of pre- and post- award activities. c. Section 10.2 (a through f)-The guidelines that specify the minimum criteria for Certificates of Conformance. d. Section 10.3.2-The guideline concerning ac- ceptance by receiving inspection. e. Section 10.3.4-The guideline concerning the establishment of post-installation test requirements and acceptance documentation. D. IMPLEMENTATION The purpose of this section is to provide informa- tion to applicants and licensees regarding the NRC staffs plans for using this regulatory guide. Except in those cases in which the applicant proposes an accep- table alternative method for &omplying with specified 1.123-2 portions of the Commission's regulations, the method described herein will be used in the evalua- tion of submittals for construction
