Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
Description | Technical Specification 5.4.1 requires that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained for procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Section 7.e.2 includes implementation of the Radiation Survey Program. Procedure RP-AA-503, Unconditional Release Survey Method, required, in part, that materials have no detectable radioactivity for unconditional release from the site. Contrary to the above, on September 17, 2013,
Radioactive Shipping Specialist discovered that nine sample bottles containing radioactivity above minimal detectable activity for Co-58, Co-60 and Cs-137 were unconditionally released and shipped by the licensees warehouse staff to a licensed facility without proper authorization from RP Management. All sample bottles were accounted for and secured at the licensed facility on September 16, 2013. The licensee investigation determined that the shipment of the sample bottles did not leak or cause contamination during the shipment. This event was entered into the licensees CAP as IR 1560642, Radioactive Oil Samples Shipped From Site Without RP Shipper Review, dated September 18, 2013. The RP department immediately stopped work and retrained the RP staff. The significance of the finding was determined by using IMC 0609, Appendix D, "Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process." The issue was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it involved radioactive material control, was not a finding involving transportation, and did not result in public exposure greater than 0.005 rem. |
