August 15, 2018 Mr. Robert Tuttle Quality Assurance Manager DEVAR Inc.
706 Bostwick Avenue Bridgeport, CT 06605
SUBJECT:
CANCELLATION OF PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED INSPECTION NO. 99902065/2018-201
Dear Mr. Tuttle:
As discussed in a letter dated June 16, 2018, (Agencywide Document Access and Management System Accession No. ML18194A901), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff planned to perform an inspection of DEVAR Inc. (DEVAR), to review the implementation of your quality assurance program in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B and 10 CFR Part 21. The letter discussed a preliminary schedule for the inspection. The inspectors planned to arrive at your facility in Bridgeport, Connecticut on Monday, August 20, 2018, and conduct the inspection through Friday, August 24, 2018. The NRC staff determined from additional information presented on a phone call dated August 13, 2018, that DEVARs supply to the nuclear industry is mainly commercial-grade, and there is currently insufficient ongoing, safety-related work to support an NRC inspection. As such, the NRC has cancelled the planned inspection of DEVAR. If DEVARs supply of safety-related products to the nuclear industry changes in the future, the NRC will re-assess the need to perform a vendor inspection.
Please contact Mr. Aaron Armstrong at 301-415-8396 or via electronic mail at Aaron.Armstrong@nrc.gov, if you have any questions or need assistance regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Terry W. Jackson, Chief Quality Assurance Vendor Inspection Branch-1 Division of Construction Inspection and Operational Programs Office of New Reactors Docket No.: 99902065
