Citation: While performing Hat tasks stunning effectiveness at approximately 0825 I observed a student performing the stunning of a steer with the captive bolt stunner. The steer was stunned but the shot didn't produce immediate unconsciousness with the first shot. The instructor immediately re-stunned the steer a second time and produce immediate unconsciousness. I informed that this is a noncompliance with regulation 313.15. No retain tag was applied to knocking box because Plant Manager verbally proposed immediate correct actions and further plan actions and I received this in writing.
