improvements in your capability of tracking transient combustibles. We also

understand that you plan to implement these recommendations in the near future.

'However, more than 1 month had elapsed between your assessment and our

inspection which identified numerous continuing deficiencies in this area.

Therefore, we request that your response to the violation include a timetable

g

along with the actions planned to correct the deficiencies.
