Action on Previous Inspection Findings 1.

(Closed) Deviation (Report No. 79-01): Project Instructions covering project status reports do not meet the requirements of S & L General Quality Assurance Procedure GQ-3.12 on project 4391/4392/4683/4684.

To correct this problem S & L has revised Project Instruction PI-BB-1 (Revision 5, April 25, 1979) to meet the requirements of GQ - 3.12. Also, an audit (Internal Audit No. 6-71) was conducted on May 4-11, 1979, to determine if this condition existed on other projects; corrective action has been initiated on the Clinton and Marble Hill projects to correct similar problems. To prevent similar occurrences in the future S & L has issued an Inter-office Memorandum to the Project Managers dated May 16, 1979, cautioning them to specifically follow the requirements of S & L General Quality Assurance Procedures GQ-3.12 and GQ-17.01.

2.

(Closed) Deviation (Report No. 79-01): Some Project Managers are not dating their signatures on QA Record Submittal Schedules as required by S & L General Quality Assurance Pro-cedure GQ-17.01.

To correct this problem S & L has issued a Notification of Scheduled Revision for GQ-17.01 dated 4/18/79.

This notification deletes the requirement for the approver to date c :: '. -

gj e / t _.

his signature, as S & L feels the QA Record Submittal Schedule is adequately identified by a revision identification and date.

To prevent similar occurrences in the future S & L has issued an Inter-office Memorandum to the Project Managers dated May 16, 1979, cautioning them to specifically follow the requirements of S & L General Quality Assurance Procedures GQ-3.12 and GQ-17.01.

3.

(0 pen) Unresolved Item (Report No. 79.01):
