Navy Spec Welding Audits – Common Areas of Findings

LEVEL III

Recertification Requirements

For recertification required every 5 years, the NNS contracted supplier needs to ensure their NDT sub-contracted supplier and their own in-house NDT Level IIIs possess a pass/fail letter for the Method exam (for each NDT method). The Basic exam does not have to be taken again provided the Level III continuously maintains a certification in at least one NDT method; if the Level IIIs do not continuously maintain a certification in one NDT method then they would be required to take and pass the Basic exam again. The pass/fail letter from ASNT or a qualified NDT test facility shall be provided to the NNS contracted supplier (and NNS upon request).
