| Title | Failure to Request an Experience Waiver for a Reactor Operator License Applicant |
| Description | An NRC-identified non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.9, Completeness and Accuracy of Information, was identified for failure to request an experience waiver on NRC Form 398 for a Reactor Operator license applicant who did not have three years of responsible nuclear power plant experience as required by NUREG 1021, Revision 9, Supplement 1, ES-202.D.1.a.(1). Upon discovery, the facility licensee submitted a revised NRC Form 398, which included the waiver request, and entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report 4080143. The examiners evaluated this issue using the traditional enforcement process because the performance deficiency had the potential for impacting the NRC s ability to perform its regulatory function. This performance deficiency was determined to be Severity Level IV because it fits the SL-IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d, Violation Examples: Licensed Reactor Operators. This section states, Severity Level IV violations involve, for example ... cases of inaccurate or incomplete information inadvertently provided to the NRC that does [sic] not contribute to the NRC making an incorrect regulatory decision as a result of the originally submitted information or an unqualified individual performing the functions of an operator or senior operator... . Because the performance deficiency was corrected before the issuance of a license and an experience waiver was ultimately granted, it did not cause the NRC to make an incorrect regulatory decision. There is no Cross-Cutting Aspect associated with this violation because it was processed using Traditional Enforcement. This violation is described in greater detail in section 4OA5.1.b of this report. |
