• Develop TM Summarizing Operations Audit. The LRO, upon completion of the
operations interviews, should develop a TM summarizing the results of the operations
audit, including the following:
– Discussion of SSMP components that are working well.
– A summary of SSMP components that need to be improved, enhanced, or
removed.
– A list of changes to be made to the SSMP to reflect changes to reflect current
operational conditions or to improve the effectiveness of the SSMP.

11.2.3.3 Engineering/Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Audit
The engineering/CIP audit focuses primarily on the following aspects, and is initiated by the
LRO:

engineering staff and other staff related to CIP projects and expenditures in order to
review specific elements of the SSMP as they pertain to the engineering division,
including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:
– System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan. It is recommended that
the Port review the System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan (SECAP)
during the each program audit to determine whether updates or amendments
are necessary. When an update or amendment to the SECAP is required, it
should be prepared by a licensed engineer.
– Capital Improvement Program. The program audit should also include a
review of the capital improvement program to determine which projects have
