Gentlemen:
This refers to the QA Program inspection conducted by Mr. V. H. Hunter of this office on May 14-17, 1979, of your facility at Vernon, California, associated with the f abrication of nuclear pumps and to the discussions of our findings with Mr. A. W. Snodgrass and others at the conclusion 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; ncr 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, co=poneots or services procured from others. You should therefore not conclude that the 4RC'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 and our findings are discussed in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of an exnmination of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.
During the inspection it was found that the i=plementation of your QA Program failed to meet certain NRC requirements. The specific findings and references to the pertinent requirements are identified in the encicsures to this letter.
Please provide us within thirty (30) days of your receipt of this report a written statement containing, (1) a description of steps that have been or will be taken to correct these items, (2) a description of steps that have been or will be taken to prevent recurrence, and (3) the dates your corrective actions and pceventive =easures were or will be completed.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the Co= mission's "kules of Practice,"
Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter with enclosure and your reply, together with the enclosed inspection report will be placed in the Co=J.ssion's Dublic Document Rocm.
