IP 87124 (Fixed and Portable Gauge Programs) Has been revised. Based on changes in revised Inspection Manual Chapter 2800 (October 2003), a comporting change was made to add the second paragraph under Section 87124-02, Inspection Requirements. Inspectors should assess the adequacy of a licensee’s program for management and oversight of the general license material as well as material authorized under the specific license.
