e COL application phase. B.2 Quality Assurance Associated with Design and Construction Activities For the non-safety-related RAP SSCs, the application should specify the QA controls for COL design and construction activities (which include establishing appropriate corrective actions for potential design and pre- operational errors that could degrade these SSCs) in accordance with the provisions in Part V, "Non-safety-Related SSC Quality Controls," of SRP Section 17.5. The staff will conduct the review of these QA controls under Part V of SRP Section 17.5. The staff should ensure that Section 17.4 of the application cites the specific sections or chapters of the application where these QA controls are described. B.3 Integration of Reliability Assurance Program into Operational Programs The application should propose a process for integrating the RAP into operational programs. The application should cite the specific sections or chapters of the application where applicable operational programs are described (including the proposed implementation milestones) and may also identify other applicable programs, if any (e.g., a RTNSS availability controls program). The process proposed by the applicant should also address the following: 17.4-13 Draft Revision 1 – May 2013 1. Establishment of reliability, availability, or condition performance goals for the RAP SSCs. One acceptable method for establishing these performance goals is by implementation of the maintenance rule following the guidance contained in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.160, “Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plants” (RG 1.160), provided that the RAP SSCs are categorized as having high safety significance (HSS). 2. Establishment of performance and condition monitoring requirements to provide reasonable assurance that RAP SSCs do not degrade to an unacceptable level of reliability, availability, or condition during plant operations.3 3. For the non-safety-related RAP SSCs,
