Subject:
Waste Shipment Receipt Not Received Within Twenty Days of Shipment Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Docket No. 50-440
Dear Mr. Caldwell:
On November 19,2004 the Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP) shipped two twenty foot Sealands of radioactive waste. One Sealand contained Dry Active Waste and the second contained Green is Clean waste. Both containers were shipped to Duratek Inc.
of Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Subsequently, on December 30,2004 it was determined that the PNPP had not received the twenty day notification of waste receipt as required by 10 CFR 20, Appendix G, Section I l l, Control and Tracking, Paragraph E.I. In accordance with this regulation, an investigation was commenced which included a trace of the shipment. Upon identification, this condition was entered in the PNPPs Corrective Action Program.
Duratek was contacted and on January 3, 2005 provided a fax, which confirmed that the shipment was received at their facility on November 22, 2004. Duratek stated that a receipt acknowledgement was sent to the PNPP on November 22,2004. It appears that this receipt was not received on the PNPP site.
The investigation found that the individual normally responsible for this task was unavailable. His replacement was performing this function on a part-time basis, which allowed the twenty-day receipt requirement to be exceeded. The PNPP staff believes that the mailed acknowledgement most likely was lost in the holiday mail.
This letter is submitted as the required report specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix G, Section I l l, Paragraph E.1.
If you have any additional questions or require further assistance, please contact Jeffrey Lausberg, Manager - Regulatory Compliance at (440) 280-5940.
