| Title | Failure to Verify Recipients License Conditions Prior to Shipping Special Nuclear Material |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 70.42 (c) for failure to verify that a recipient of special nuclear material was authorized to receive the quantity of material shipped. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance. Specifically, On June 15, 2010, the licensee shipped laundry contaminated with radioactive material to a state licensed processing facility in Alabama. The licensee verified that the processing facility was licensed to handle the material being shipped, but failed to verify that the recipients license authorized the quantity of material shipped. The licensee notified the Alabama licensee and proposed a revision to the shipping procedures. This violation was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201104385. This finding was greater than minor because it was associated with the Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone attribute of program and process (transportation program), and affected the cornerstone objective, in that, license conditions were violated and these conditions are in place, in part, to control exposure to radiation. Using the public radiation safety significance determination process, the inspectors determined the finding had very low safety significance because (1) radiation limits were not exceeded, (2) there was no breach of a package during transit, (3) it did not involve a certificate of compliance issue, (4) it was not a low level burial ground nonconformance, and (5) it did not involve a failure to make notifications or provide emergency information. This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance, resources component, because licensee procedures were inadequate to ensure proper shipping of radioactive material and that license conditions were not violated. |
