99900057/79-02 The William Powell Company Attn:
Mr. Paul Niehaus Vice President of Engineering and Manufacturing 2503 Spring Grove Avenue Cincinnati, Ohio 45213 Gentlemen:
This refers to the QA Program 1&specticn conducted by Mr. Ross L. Brown of this office on November 13-15, 1979 of your facility at Cincinnati, Ohio, associated with the manufacture of nuclear valves and to the discussion of our Lindings with you and members of your staff at the coaclusion of the inspection.
This inspection was made to confirm that, in the areas inspected, your QA Program is being effectively implemented. The inspection effort is not designed to assure that unique quality requirements imposed by a customer are being implemented; nor to assure that a specific product, component or service provided by you to your customers, is of acceptable quality. As you know, the NRC requires each of its licensees to assume full responsibility for the quality of specific products, components or services procured from others. You should therefore not conclude that the NRC's inspection exempts you from inspections by an NRC licensee or his agents nor from taking effective corrective action in response to their findings.
Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are discussed in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of an examination of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.
Within the scope of this inspection, we found no instance where you failed to meet NRC requirements.
