18 MR. ZWAHR: Because I wrote the RPS on 19 the back of the weld data card, which has the RPS
, 20 form on it.
21 MR. WATKINS: Is this a preprinted 22 form?

3.19.1 In Process Weld Repairs Q
In process repairs shall be defined as those discovered prior to final code required NDE.
All major weld defects discovered before final inspection shall be evaluated by the PWE who may generate an RPS operational sequence at his discretion.
NOTE: Through wall repairs or those where 1/8 inch or less metal remains shall require an RPS. )
The removal of starts and stops and slag, etc. may be routinely ground out during the welding process. No .
documentation is required.
When weld _ defects are discovered before final inspection '
(In process), and operational steps are not defined by the PWE, the following operational steps may be used to affect reworking:
- - Grind as required to remove defects within the guidelines of this procedure.
Perform information PT or MI
- Reweld utilizing original welding procedure
- Grind and fair deposited area into the surrounding metal surface
- Reinspect utilizing the original NDE method and acceptance criteria for information unless defined otherwise by the PWE.
3.19.2 Weld Metal Repairs 3.19.2.1 Maior Defects
. BOP,Q The following defects discovered during or after final code required NDE shall be classified as " Major Repairs":
- 1. All cracks and/or linear defects identified during the final inspection of a weld joint.
- 2. Cracks, that are repaired and then reappear after the repair.
