Palo Verde has used VSDS since 2009. Prior to VSDS we used another electronic survey program and combined paper surveys with a printed copy of the electronic survey. These were all turned over as a hard copy. We typically do not use paper surveys any more. In special cases we will have a paper document that needs to be included we scan and attach them to a VSDS electronic survey and processed through the system, these instances are very rare. All surveys are turned over electronically. During outages all contract technicians are given a short hands-on class on how to use VSDS and expectations for documentation. For the outage unit we setup additional computers in various areas for technicians to complete their survey documentation and logbook entries. All contractors have a network account and email. I have VSDS setup so that if a survey needs to be corrected, comments will be feed back to the technician via email. The biggest problem is having supervision time to review surveys. We will have RP Training staff tasked with perform reviews during outages.
