A summary of this investigation is included as Enclosure 1.

The NRC evaluated this violation in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The current Enforcement Policy is included on the NRCs Web site at www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/regulatory/enforcement/enforce-pol.html. The violation is cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) and the circumstances surrounding it are described in the investigation summary. The violation is being cited because it involves an individuals willful failure to comply with regulatory requirements at Fort Calhoun Station.
