/N)
Regulatory Guides (RGs) as defined herein and
(-
in Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) i Table 3.12-1.
5.6 Delegation of QA Functions 5.6.1 During normal operations the QA Program will oo i
executed by STPEGS personnel, who may be i
assisted by subcontract personnel.
During refueling, maintenance, and inservice inspection, first-level quality control inspection and nondestructive examination (NDE) activities may be subcontracted.
- However, STPEGS will retain responsibility for the total QA Program, and STPEGS NA personnel will perform audits and surveillance (s) of
