Dear Mr. MacDonald:
Please find enclosed, a copy of the Rockwell International-Supply and Mass Transit Division,10 CFR Part 71 QA Program.
The Supply and Mass Transit Division has reviewed the sample QA Program provided by the NRC and has adopted the proposed NRC foremat.
Even though the SMTD Program is signed effective 8/1/79, SMTD does not consider itself to be in full compliance with the Program. SMTD is directing its efforts, however, towards full compliance with a target date of 10/1/79.
Please advise SMTD if there are any problems with the enicosed QA Program or the time table for full compliance.
Sincerely, 34r piedav Michael L. Weaver RADIATION SAFETT OFFICER Enclosure / Procedure 7908270%F 137CS
