material in the hold area is tagged with a red Nuclear Part Tag.
When material is assigned to a specific job, the red Nuclear Part Tag is replaced with a green iluclear Part Tag which stays with the t

It is the responsibility of Quality Control to review the nuclear process sheet, and... After all requirements of traceability and compliance to the purchase order have been satis-fied, Quality Control will release the nuclear process sheet and material for manufacture...."
Contrary to the above, a documentation review of eighteen (18), in-process, Stuffing Box Flanges for order number N770459, revealed that the Bill-of-Material and purchase order required the material to be SA-182 type F304 2-76, and the vendor material certifications sub-stantiated this.
However, the approved nuclear process sheet accompanying the parts, stated that the material is SA-240 type 304, which is not in compliance with the Bill-of-Material and purchase order.
