THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA Request for Additional Information 1.

The submittal of May 12, 1980 includes correspondence, newspaper articles, pro-cedures, etc. in addition to the description of the quality arsurance program.

While the background information is interesting and while procedures are required to carry out the quality assurance program, they shot'd not be submitted. The quality assurance program description should contain commitments which are met by following procedures which are documented elsewhere, such as in a QA Manual.

Therefore, please limit the resubmittal to the two pages headed "10 CFR Part 71 QA Program, University of Georgia" and the organization chart attached as Appendix A.

2.

Under part 2, " Quality Assurance Program," include a statement that the QA program will ensure that quality control procedures, engineering procedures, and specific provisions of the package design approval are satisfied.

3.

In the second paragraph under part 2, " Quality Assurance Program," change the effectivity of the connitment from "after the effective date of the QA Program" to "after January 1, 1979."

4.

In the first paragraph under part 4, " Handling, Storage, and Shipping," change

" trial inspections" to " final inspections."

5.

Under part 7, " Audits," include a cannitment that the annual audit will cover the entire QA Program. Also, we require that members of the audit team have no respon-sibility in the activity they audit. Since part 2 indicates that the RSC " establishes and implements" the QA program, it does not appear acceptable to have members of the audit team drawn from the RSC. Provide a commitment that members of the audit team shall have no responsibility in the activity they audit, and either justify having RSC members perform the audits or draw the audit team members from another (more nearly " independent"} source.
