| Title | Failure to Properly Ship Category 2 Radioactive Material Quantity of Concern |
| Description | The inspectors identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of Licensed Material, and 49 CFR 172, Subpart I, Safety and Security Plans. Specifically, Entergy shipped a Category 2 Radioactive Material in Quantities of Concern (RAM-QC) on public highways to a waste processor without adhering to a transportation security plan. Prior to shipment, Entergys staff failed to recognize that the quantity of radioactive material met the definition RAM-QC. Entergy entered the issue into their CAP as CR-2015-05746 to address changes in Department of Transportation requirements. The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the program and process attribute of the Public Radiation Safety cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the safe transport of radioactive material on public highways in accordance with regulations. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because Entergy had an issue involving transportation of radioactive material, but it did not involve: (1) a radiation limit that was exceeded; (2) a breach of package during transport; (3) a certificate of compliance issue; (4) a low level burial ground nonconformance; or (5) a failure to make notifications or provide emergency information. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Identification, in that the licensee did not have a low threshold for identifying issues. Specifically, the security transportation plan requirements became effective in March 2003, had not been effectively identified by Entergy. |
