These reports shall be used as soon as possible n fter completion of the surveillance with the distribution being as follows:
Contrnry to the above, findings were not always being identified on a "QA Audit / Surveillance Report Form."
It was observed that two recent surveillances performed on August 4 and 30,1985, to checklist No. 800-3 both noted discrepancies to the checklist requirements in that fire protection equipment was obstructed, blocked or otherwise had restricted access.
These results were not reported or identified as findings.
