Areas examined during this inspection are described in the Office of Inspection

these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, measurements made by the

noncompliance brought to your attention in a letter dated December 22, 1978. We

ment or explanation in reply including:
