Inspection / Evaluation

TVA's Nuclear Quality Assurance (QA) provides monitoring and assessment of plant activities to ensure they are conducted in a quality manner. Periodically, reviews are performed (internal and external) of QA that identify improvement opportunities. Due to the importance of QA's role in monitoring and assessing nuclear plant activities, we initiated an evaluation to determine if QA has taken actions to address issues identified during the internal and external reviews. We determined QA generally took actions to address issues identified during reviews of QA. However, we determined better documentation was needed when actions are not deemed necessary.
