| Title | Failure to Provide Complete Information to the NRC Which Impacted a Licensing Decision |
| Description | Every six years an operators NRC operating license must be renewed. When the licensee submits the request for license renewal, the licensee must certify to the NRC that the operator is medically capable of performing license duties. This is done by completing an NRC Form 396, Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee. When signed by senior station management, the NRC Form 396 certifies that an operator is able to perform operator duties. The form contains several standard license conditions that restrict operator activities to ensure their ability to 2 Enclosure perform license duties. In this SROs case, the licensee certified to the NRC in a letter dated January 23, 2008, that the operator was capable of performing license duties with no restrictions. The licensee provided incomplete and inaccurate information on the accompanying NRC Form 396 in that the licensee failed to inform the NRC that the SRO was taking medication for a potentially disqualifying medical condition so the NRC could properly restrict the SROs operating license to have a Must Take Medication as Prescribed to Maintain Qualifications license restriction. Because the issue affected the NRCs ability to perform its regulatory function, it was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process. The finding was determined to be of low safety significance because the SRO had taken medications as prescribed and had not made errors during any emergency condition prior to the license being amended. However, the regulatory significance was important because the incomplete and inaccurate information was provided under a signed statement to the NRC and impacted a licensing decision for the SRO. This was preliminarily determined to be an apparent violation of 10 CFR 50.9, Completeness and Accuracy of Information. The cause of the apparent violation is related to the cross-cutting element of problem identification and resolution in the area of operating experience. P.2(b)(Section 1R11) |
