b.
Several instances were noted in which the sample fraction retained on an 8-inch diameter sieve at the completion of the sieving operation exceeded the maximum of 200g allowed by ASTM C136.
c.
The specific gravity of the heavy liquid (Zine Chloride) used to perform the Test for Lightweight Pieces,in Aggregate was not monitored during the test with a calibrated hydrometer to verify that it remained within 10.01 of the specified value at all times as required by ASTM C123.
d.
The specific gravity of the heavy liquid (Zine Chloride) used to perform the Test for Lightweight Pieces in Aggregate was not confirmed to be 2.0 as specified by ASTM C33 for the coal and lignite test.

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III requires that design changes, including field changes, shall be subject to design control measures commensurate with those applied to the original design, and be approved by the organization that performed the ariginal design unless the applicant designates another responsible organization.
s Marble Hill PSAR, Chapter 1, Section 1.7, commits to Regulatory Guide 1.28 (June 7, 1972) and therefore to ANSI N45.2-71.

In the event that it is not practical for the original organizations to perform the required review or approval, other responsible design organizations may be designated.
Contrary to the above, the RIII inspector noted the following examples of nonconformance reports which had not received the proper design organization evaluation.
