SAFETY SIGNIFICANCE ASSESSMENT: The risk significance of this staff suspected wrongdoing is very low as the individual tested negative for drugs, his site access has been suspended and there is no evidence of any significant problems with his work performance (i.e.

drug testing was conducted at random versus for cause).

PRIORITY OF 01 INVESTIGATION: Normal If potential discrimination or wrongdoing and 01 is not opening a case, provide rationale here (e.g., no prima facie, lack of specific indication of wrongdoing):

The case should be given a medium or low priority due to the-termination of the individual's employment, his negative test results, his position (a first-level supervisor) and the absence of any issues with his work performance.

Rationale used to defer 01 discrimination case (DOL case in progress):

ENFORCEMENT STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS CONSIDERATION (only applies to wrongdoing matters (including discrimination issues) that are under investigation by 01, DOL, or DOJ):

What is the potential violation and regulatory requirement? 10 CFR Part 26, 10 CFR 50.5-When did the potential violation occur? February 2002 ARB MINUTES ARE REVIEWED AND APPROVED AT THE ARB

2 Once date of potential violation is established, SAC will assign AMS action to have another ARB at four (4) years from that date, to discuss enforcement statute of limitations issues.
