- 1.
There were no temporary suspensions or other administrative actions taken against individuals based upon on-site presumptive positives for marijuana or cocaine.
- 2.
A total of twenty-one (21) individuals (eight (8) employees and thirteen (13) contract workers) had unescorted protected area access withdrawn for a minimum of 80 work hours following a substance test failure.
Sixteen (16) individuals, (one (1) employee, five (5) temporary employees and ten (10) contract workers) were denied unescorted protected area access following a pre-badging substance test failure.
One (1) employee and two (2) contract workers failed a random test and had unescorted protected area access withdrawn for a minimum of 80 work hours. The employee (1) subsequently failed the post suspension test and employment was terminated.
One (1) contract worker was permanently denied site and unescorted access following a For Cause substance test failure.
- 3.
There was one disciplinary suspension from employment during the reporting period.
- 4.
There were no transfers of licensee employees to non-nuclear positions (away from the San Onofre site) as a result of failed substance tests.
- 5.
One employee was required to enroll in a treatment program during this period.
- 6.
Twelve (12) contract worker were granted (reinstated) unescorted access with a single test failure on record.
- 7.
The MRO reviewed a total of eighteen (18) appeal results [eight (8) employees, ten (10) contract workers]. The original test results were confirmed. These individuals were provided with detailed instructions regarding their rights to appeal management actions which resulted in access denial. Three (3) contract workers left site prior to meeting with the MRO, resulting in non-contact positive tests.
One (1) employee appealed denial of access for a test failure, management actions were upheld.
- 8.
There were no identified deficiencies in the Fitness For Duty program.
- 9.
As depicted in Table 2, there were (60) samples confirmed by the lab as positive. As shown in Table 3, only twenty-one (21) individuals were associated with MRO failed test declarations. Due to SCE recollection procedure, several individuals submitted multiple positive samples resulting in a single declared individual failure. Positive tests for prescription medications were declared responsible use by the MRO.
ATTACHMENT 2 Page 2 of 2 In reconciling THC results, three samples pre-screened negative for THC while the HHS lab analysis was positive. Although a negative pre-screen for THC was obtained, the samples were sent for off-site analysis (in accordance with SCE recollection procedure for multiple samples) and tested positive at the off-site lab for THC just above the cut-off level.
In investigation the THC discrepancies, the HHS lab and on-site pre-screening utilized different EIA reagents for the detection of marijuana metabolites. Due to slight differences in sensitivity of the reagents used, in concert with borderline positive samples, the results were technically acceptable. On-site pre screening results and test protocol were verified and found to be accurate and consistent with the testing protocol. The appeal samples sent to a second HHS (appeal) lab, confirmed the positive results.
- 10.
During this period there was one reportable event to the Commission.
On February 14, 1997, Southern California Edison Company made telephone notification to the NRC Operations Center in accordance with 10CFR26.73(a)(2), upon learning that a non-licensed operations supervisor had been arrested and convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol.
The individual's unescorted access was immediately suspended pending an incident investigation. Based on the results of this investigation, the individual's employment with Edison has been terminated.
