Inspection and test programs

Product verification requires inspection and testing programs to confirm that product meets the quality requirements. In PSM and ESH terms, the product is the management of environmental, health and safety issues and may be difficult to separate from measurement (Chapter 7) and Audit. 

Develop projects to improve the system based on results of the inspection and testing programs. 

Periodic inspection and testing maximizes the useful life of the fireproofing system. The manufacturer or applier may be invited to participate in the inspection. An inspection and testing program should include the following steps ... 

Were the fire-water pumps and associated controls part of an inspection and test program ... 

The following equipment would normally be included in an inspection and testing program ... 

The objective of an inspection and test program is to assure the reliable performance of critical equipment and construction features. Since most safety related equipment and construction features remain idle until needed under emergency conditions, their condition and readiness often cannot be verified through normal use. Inspections and tests provide essential verification that they will perform effectively when needed. 

Equipment and building components should be included in an inspection and test program if their failure to perform is not readily apparent during the course of day-to-day operations, and if their failure could con-... 

The Policy Statement should reflect the commitment of management to a high standard of readiness of critical equipment and should give high priority to the inspection and test program. The Purpose Statement should explain the unique importance of the program to safety, the environment and property protection. The Scope Statement should describe the classes of equipment and components included in the program. 

Preventive maintenance programs should include policy, purpose and scope statements and other elements similar to those described earlier for inspection and test programs. 

In this chapter, an extensive reference is made only to the inspection and testing program on the constituent materials delivered in the plant (aggregates, bitumen, etc.) and on the final product, namely, the asphalt. Information about items (a) to (c), as well as more information about (d) and additional quality assurance procedures can be found in CEN EN 13108-21 (2008). 

Were the fire-water pumps and associated controls part of an inspection and test program Did the Emergency Response plan consider and address a potential release of this magnitude Was crowd control part of the emergency response plan ... 

A snubber in-service inspection and testing program, which includes periodic maintenance and visual inspection, inspection following a faulted event, a functional testing program, and repair or replacement of snubbers failing inspection or test criteria. 

New fire protection equipment, signaiing systems and alarms placed on regular inspection and testing programs... 

Restart Criterion 1 requires inspection and test programs to be defined and in place before reactor startup to ensure the integrity and operability of piping systems and equipment. 

The criteria for determining the adequacy of the SRS inspection and testing program for restart are described below. 

Inspection and test programs shall be defined and in place before reactor start up to ensure integrity and operability of piping systems and equipment. The Inspection and Test Plan shall delineate the scope of each program including procedures, frequencies, quantities, extent, acceptance criteria, and applicable codes and standards. The Inspection and Test Pl i n shall be reviewed and approved by DOE. 

Restart issues shall be resolved prior to reactor restart. The following items shall be among those Reactor Operations Management Plan (ROMP) issues (Reference 1) to be addressed by the Inspection and Testing Program.
