Mr. U. A. Stone Quality Assurance Manager 911 West Main Street Chattanooga, Tennessee 37402 Gentlemen:
This refers to the QA Program inspection conducted by V. H. Hunter of this office on September 25-29, 1978, of your facility at Chattanooga, Tennessee, associated with the fabrication of reactor pressure vessels and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. J. T. Rich and members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
This inspection was made to confirm that, in the areas inspected, your QA Program is being effectively implemented.
The inspection effort is not dcsigned to assure that unique quality requirements imposed by a customer are being implemented; nor to assure that a specific product, component or service provided by you to your customers, is of acceptable quality. As you know, the f4RC requires each of its licensees to assume full responsibility for the quality of specific products, components or services procured from others.
You should therefore not conclude that the flRC's inspection exempts you from inspections by an fiRC licensee or his agents nor from taking effective corrective action in response to their findings.
Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are discussed in l
the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of l
an examination of procedures and represcntative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector. Within the scope of this inspection, we found no instance where you failed to meet flRC requirements.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the Commission's " Rules of Prac.tice,"
Part P., Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter t
together with the enclosed inspection report will be placed in the Commission's Public Document Room.
If th.is report contains any infor-mation that you believe to be proprietary, it is necessary that you make a written application within thirty (30) days to this office to withhold such information from public disclosure.
Any such application must include a full statement of the reasons on the basis of which it 79010sceCt
Combustion Engineering Inc. is claimed that the information is proprietary, and should be prepared so that proprietary information identified in the application is contained in a separate part of the document.
If we do not hear from you in this regard within the specified period, the report will be placed in the Public Document Rcom.
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them with you.
Sincerely,
,.(v 1,
