| Title | Communication of an NRC Inspector Presence by Security Personnel |
| Description | The NRC identified an NCV of 10 CFR 50.70, Inspections, paragraph (b)(4), for the licensees failure to ensure that the arrival and presence of an NRC inspector is not communicated to persons at the facility. The licensees actions of announcing the presence and location of an NRC inspector during an unannounced inspection in the protected area was a performance deficiency. Interim corrective actions included providing a site-wide communication to all employess and providing training briefs during shift turnovers informing employees of the regulation. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as AR 2155881. The NRC evaluated this issue under the traditional enforcement process because the act of announcing NRC presence could impact NRC ability to perform its regulatory function. Specifically, the NRC relies on its ability to perform unannounced inspections to evaluate licensee performance, and communicating the presence and location of NRC inspectors affects their ability to perform these inspections, and as such the regulatory function is impacted. Because the violation was determined to be of very low safety significance, was not repetitive or willful, and was entered into the CAP, this violation is being treated as a Severity Level IV non-cited violation consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy. This violation was evaluated under the traditional enforcement process and thus does not have a cross cutting aspect (Section 4OA2). |
