Ref:

(a) U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Materials License 31-17753-01 (b) Code of Federal Regulations Title 10, Part 71 (10CFR71)

(c) Code of Federal Regulations Title 49 Enc 1:

(1) RMPQA Program 1.

Background. USS PIEDMONT is authorized by reference (a) to use certain radioactive materials aboard PIEDMONT, on tended ships and in areas where USS PIEDMONT is operating.

In the course of exercising this authorization some of these materials are shipped to and from civilian suppliers who are like-wise licensed by the NRC to provide these materials. A recent revision to reference (b) requires the development of a program as follows:

"The licensee shall establish, maintain and execute a quality assurance pro-gram satisfying each of the applicable criteria specified in Appendix E, to 10CFR Part 71 " Quality Assurance. Criteria for Shipping Packages for Radio-active Material", cnd satisfying any spe~ific provisions which are applicable c

to the licensee's activities, including procurement packaging."

2.

Action. This instruction provides for procedures necessary for the satis-factory establishment and execution of the quality assurance program for use in packaging, shipment, and transportation of licensed materials by USS PIEDMONT.

3.

Scope.

This instruction applies to all radioactive materials covered by reference (a). As an end-user it is not intended that PIEDMONT engage in the manufccture or alteration of shipping packages. Rather, this program is designed i

to ensure that the quality of shipping packages received is as initially certified by the supplier and maintained in such a condition while such packages are in the custody of PIEDMONT. This instruction is not to be construed in any case, as a relaxation of the requirements in reference (a) or other directives of higher authority.
