QA Progran revisions will be =ade according to written proce-dures with management approval. The QA Pr gram will ensure that all defined QC procedures, engineering precedures, and specific previsiens of the package design approval are satisfied. The QA Program will erphasize cen-trol of the characteristics of the package which are critical to safety.
The Radiatien Safety Offiser shall assure that all radicactive caterial shipping packages are designed and canufactured under a Quality Assurance Program approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Cec =ission for all packages de-signed or fabricated after July 1,1978. This requirerent can be satisfied by receiving a certification to this effect frca the canufacturer.
Written procedures and instructicns for i=plementing the Quality Assurance Program are centained in the Radiation Safety Progra=.
