You are the NACE Inspector on a job where the Owner's specification requites you to perform a twice daily check of blast pressure at the nozzle. It is now day 30 on the job and all of your readings have been within compliance. The Contractor complains that these checks taking up much time and in view of the compliant results they are unnecessary.
Your FIRST preferred course of action is to:

• A.Keep doing the checks regardless
• B.Keep doing the checks and consult the Owner's representative for direction
• C.Skip the checks and just record the same readings as you have been getting
• D.Skip the checks as you are. confident the blast pressure is OK
