| Title | Failure to conduct and document RCA routine radiological surveys. |
| Description | The NRC identified a non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1 requirements when it was determined that two St. Lucie Plant Radiation Protection Technician staff willfully failed to follow established Health Physics Procedures. As a result, between July 1, 2008, and September 30, 2009, 16 required Radiologically Controlled Area routine radiation surveys were not conducted, and subsequently were falsely documented as being completed. After the issue was identified by the licensee, it was entered into the licensees corrective action program for action and final resolution. Licensee actions included a determination of the impact of the missed surveys on occupational radiation safety, the extent of condition, and development of additional oversight of for future completed surveys. This issue was dispositioned using traditional enforcement due to the willful aspects of the performance deficiency. In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, Section 6.7 (d), this failure to maintain procedurally established surveillance activities over licensed material in an area posted as containing radioactive materials despite a functional program to monitor licensed material including training and staff awareness of procedural and 10 CFR Part 20 Code requirements was identified as a Severity Level IV violation. The NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV) consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. |
