PY-CEIJNRR-2724L Page: 1 of 2 Management Actions Taken Drug and alcohol testing results for the reporting period are described in Attachment 1.
One (1) licensee employee tested positive for illegal drugs and one (1) licensee employee tested positive for alcohol during this reporting period. Both licensee employees did not hold unescorted access. Their positive test results occurred during pre-access testing. Both individuals were denied unescorted access to the Protected Area. Pursuant to Nuclear Operating Procedure (NOP-LP-1002) "Fitness for Duty" requirements, individuals and/or their company representative were informed of the right to appeal, and of the procedural requirements in order to re-establish unescorted access to the Protected Area. To date, neither have initiated steps to restore unescorted access.
Thirty-five (35) contractor personnel tested positive for illegal drugs and three (3) contractor personnel tested positive for alcohol during this reporting period. All contractor personnel, with the exception of one individual, did not hold unescorted access. The unescorted access for the one contractor personnel was terminated based on the positive result. All contractor employees testing positive for illegal drugs/alcohol were denied unescorted access to the Protected Area. Pursuant to Nuclear Operating Procedure (NOP-LP-1002) "Fitness for Duty" requirements, individuals and/or their company representative were informed of the right to appeal, and of the procedural requirements in order to re-establish unescorted access to the Protected Area. To date, none have initiated steps to restore unescorted access.
Twenty-three (23) individuals were subjected to unannounced follow-up testing during this reporting period, as a result of a Fitness for Duty Program concern. All follow-up test results were negative.
Initiatives Taken Focus this reporting period was on providing Fitness for Duty Supervisory training to applicable incoming contractor personnel for Perry's Refueling Outage. Continued efforts were made on developing common Fitness for Duty Program for FENOC's three (3) nuclear sites. Multiple communications were distributed to site personnel concerning the Overtime Guidelines Program, which is part of Perry's Fitness for Duty Program. This communication was in an effort to further educate site personnel to their responsibilities.
Operational Experience 16047, "Contractor Craft Use of Adulteration Product" was distributed to the industry.
Details of this event are provided in the "Reported Events" section.
Reported Events Although the contractor craft use of an adulteration product did not fall into the reporting criteria outlined in 10 CFR Part 26.73, the NRC was contacted and informed of the event. Nine (9) contractor personnel were determined to have attempted to subvert the drug testing process through adulteration. The majority of these contractor personnel used a synthetic urine product called "Minuteman". These contractor personnel were denied unescorted access to the Protected Area for "failure to cooperate", falsification of their Chain-of-Custody Form, and in some cases falsification of their Self-Disclosure Questionnaire. Four (4) contractor personnel were suspected of adulteration based on observations during the drug/alcohol collection process.
These contract personnel did not cooperate with the testing process and were denied unescorted access to the
e-
-1 PY-CEI/NRR-2724L Page: 2 of 2 Protected Area for "failure to cooperate." A thorough investigation, Report # CO-0037, has been completed on this incident and is available for review. Pursuant to Nuclear Operating Procedure (NOP-LP-1002)
"Fitness for Duty" requirements, a determination of "failure to cooperate" is considered and processed as a confirmed positive drug result.
