Contrary to the above, UNT-5-002, MM-6-003, and QP-10-001 were not properly implemented in that:

1. UNT-5-002, Attachment 6.2, page 7 required the work group supervisor and shift supervisor / control room supervisor initials to be noted in

4. MM-6-003, Section 4.0 and Section 5.0 state that precautions and initial conditions be included in the CIWA. These items were not included for CIWAs 022173 and 022169.

5. CIWAs 022173 and 022169 required hold points as described in QP-10-001 for verifying cleanliness of components prior to reassembly.
