!g wanted x amount done.
This was when we had a tremendous D.
m f2 backlog, and then we had a backlog of NCR, ICR.
We were
- +
f[3 promised all kinds of stuff to get this done, get that done.
4 I don't believe it affected anybody's inspections.
Right now g
5 today I would say you have got a very good inspection force 6
out there now, which is a change, like I said, from what they A
17 did have.
I mean it's 100 percent different.
q
}8 And I don't believe that anything was hurt on that 4;g matter except that geople would get tired of being pushed to W
10 do this or that because with Commonwealth Edison's knowledge 1
and background in these plants, I think my problem comes to that I can't see how they let some of this go for so long
- 2
..J before it was caught, and now we're paying for it in the sense 4
of doubling our work or three times inspecting the same 5
hanger.
I have inspected some hangers as many as seven
?
times, the same hanger that someone else has inspected, it has been rejected or bought off.
Their documentation is what --
not Comed's, but Comstock's documentation, or Ernst, if you i
want to call it Ernst, that one time it was, their documentation has either been lost or thrown away or dumped, v
l and I think that's why you have, or I should say they had, 4

g the problem with these backlogs and the pressure to get
'2 something done.
CECO gives a time limit, says I want x done o
e
,f '3 by this certain date, just like your startup date.
And if it g
g can't'be done, it naturally puts pressure on management and on 4j, 5
down the line.
I have been in both spots, so I know.
g At that t,ime there was pressure to do the job, and you did have to do, I would say, more work. I mean you were at 7
i
)'
a constant run, where today I'm a lead of welding inspectors s
1 s
9 now, and I explain to my people how I want them to do M' 10 something, and I could care less what Comed or BESTCO or any 1 il of the rest tell me they want done.
It's going to get done l
,' 12 the way I want it done, not to the way they want it done.
33 Q
One of the problems you just identified was lack of j 14 documentation or missing documentation.
{ 15 A
Yes, ma'am.
16 Q
To the best of your knowledge, the lack of 37 documentation or missing documentation has either been NCR'd 18 or ICR'd; is that correct?
s
'19 A
That I couldn't swear to.
They lose my documents l 20 all the time.
31 Q
Who loses your documents?
l 82 A
Our vault.
