Response

All Quality Assurance Department personnel who participate in tue conduct of audits, whether in the capacity of lead auditor or team member, have been directed to assure compliance with the 30-day reporting requirement of the Technical Specifications.

In those cases where outside consultants are utilized for their technical expertise, as co-participants, they will be particularly advised to submit inputs for their portion of the audit report to the Quality Assurance Depart-ment in a prompt manner to afford ample time for completion of the final report to meet the 30-day reporting requirement. Full compliance has been achieved on this date.
