(PTQAP) is proposed to be changed to reflect a change in the title of the procedure organization manager. This title will be changed to Administrative Support Manager. The second paragraph of Section 2.5.2 will be revised to read as follows:
4 The Administrative Support Manager is responsible for the system of preparation, review, approval, and use of procedures and instructions in accordance with the requirements of this PTQAP.
The change is required since USEC is separating the responsibility for training and procedures into two management positions at PORTS. PGDP has completed a similar change under a previous approval.
