                            b.  Identifies the functional category of the

                            c.  Evaluates the risk/priority of the issue, in
                                accordance with ESS-MS-131.

                            causes.
 
                            The direct cause is the action or action sequence
                            that caused the deviation from expected behavior
                            or performance.
 
                        4.  If the issue is significant, then

                            ESP-QA-16.2, Root Cause Analysis.
 
                            Root cause is the most basic causal factor or
                            factors that, if corrected or removed, would have
                            prevented the direct cause from developing and
                            the issue from occurring.
 
                        5.  Determines the extent and the potential
                            applicability of the issue for Lessons Learned.

                                cited examples,
                                       and
                                ensures that the corrective action addresses
                                the scope of the issue.
 
                            b.  If the issue potentially applies to
                                operations in other organizations or at other
                                facilities, then
                                develops a Lessons Learned or an Alert, in
                                accordance with ESP-QA-16.3, Lessons
                                Learned and Alerts System.
 
                        6.  Identifies what actions will correct both the
                            effects and the direct cause of the issue.
 
                            a.  If corrective actions cannot be promptly
                                implemented, then
                                determines the immediate mitigation actions 
                                to temporarily control the issue and prevent
                                further deviations or hazardous conditions.
 
                            b.  Uses pre-existing actions, currently in
                                progress to correct similar issues, as a
                                means of correcting the issue for which the 
                                plan is being developed.

                        7.  If root cause analysis is performed, then
                            determines the preventive actions that will
                            correct the root cause.
 
                        8.  Designates any issue meeting the following criteria
                            as a Quick Fix
 
                            o  Corrected during the audit or assessment.
 
                            o  Can be corrected within 30 calendar days from

                        9.  Designates any issue for which resources are not
                            available or which has a low risk/priority as
                            On-Hold; provides justification for placing the

 placed on-hold or addressed via Quick Fix activities.  Collection of
 objective evidence should begin as soon as the action is identified as one
 which will correct or mitigate the issue.  The contents of the Evidence
 Package are considered QA records.  The following guidelines should be
 used when compiling evidence.
 
 Evidence associated with the Issue:
 
 1.  Copy of the initial issue description and any associated response
     documentation.
 
 2.  Initial signed and dated ESAMS Corrective Action Plan Report or Final
     Occurrence Report.
 
 3.  Signed and dated ESAMS Change Requests for changes or revisions to 
     the action plan.
 
 4.  Root Cause analysis documentation, if performed.
 
 5.  Signed and dated ESAMS Corrective Action Plan Report indicating closure

 7.  Documentation to justify canceling or placing an issue On-Hold.
 
 8.  Table of contents for information contained in the Evidence Package.
 
 Evidence associated with each Corrective Action:
 
 1.  Copy of the signed and dated ESAMS Corrective Action Reports(s) which
     document the action(s).

                    o   Pages with pertinent paragraphs highlighted.  For
                        comparison purposes, include comparable pages prior to
                        the revision.
