relevant?
FOR THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD y
pg Peter B. Bloch, Chairman ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE Bethesda, Maryland I
Applicants and Staff appear to be suggesting that such information about quality assurance is not relevant.
- However, the effectiveness of the QA/QC program is essential to our determining:
(a) the extent to which existing breakdowns may cast doubt on the adequacy of portions of the plant that have not been fully reexamined or that cannot be reexamined because of physical obstructions that cannot practicably be removed, and (2) the appropriate remedy with respect to management personnel responsibility for such breakdowns.
