SUP94ARY OF REGULATORY EVALUATION AND POSITION We have evaluated the QA program and the organizations responsible for QA func-tions as described in CPC-2. We find that QA policy and direction originate at an acceptably high management level and are effectively ccmmunicated to other parts of the organization.
Individuals performing QA functions have responsi-bility and authority commensurate with their duties in implementing the QA pro-g ram. We also find that measures have been established to be implemented by written procedures and instructions which address each of the criteria of Appen-dix B to 10 CFR Part 50 in an acceptable manner.
Based on our review and evaluation of CPC-2, we conclude that:
1.
The organizations and persons performing QA functions within CPC have the required independence and authority to effectively carry nut the QA program without undue influence from those directly responsible for costs and schedules.
