Management indicated that this item would be reviewed.
(2) In reviewing the heat treat procedures it was noted that the requirement for accumulating total time at temper-ature did not require recording the sizes of the material receiving PWHT, which created difficulties in verifying whether the heat treat time at temperature was within the limits prescribed in Table 4622.1-1 of Section III, ASME Code. Management indicated that this item would be re-viewed and clarified as required.
