The TRT was unable to find any instances where work was performed without paper-work.
Persons employed as helpers were supervised by personnel who were fluent in English as well as in the language necessary to provide oral instructions.

Conclusion and Staff Positions:
Based on documentation and on interviews with mechanical inspectors, the TRT concludes that this allegation cannot be substantiated.
