Subject:

Report No. 50-261/81-17

This refers to the special safety inspection conducted by Mr. J. R. Wray of this

office on June 8-9, 1981, of activities authorized by NRC License No. DPR-23 for

the H. B. Robinson facility.

Our preliminary findings were discussed with

Mr. R. B. Starkey, Jr., General Manager, at the conclusion of the inspection.

The scope of this inspection was confined to the circumstances surrounding the

exposure of an employee to radiation in excess of the whole body regulatory

limit of three rems per calendar quarter.

You reported the exposure to this

office by telephone on May 30,

1981 and by letter dated June 9, 1981.

Within

this area,

the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures

and representative records, interviews with personnel,

and observations by the

inspector.

Our findings are discussed in the enclosed inspection report.

During the inspection, it

was found that certain activities under your license

appear to violate NRC requirements. The violations resulted from weaknesses in

your external radiation exposure control program similar to those identified in

a letter dated May 12, 1981 from the Director, Office of Inspection and Enforce

ment. The overexposure event discussed in the enclosed inspection report has

been identified as another example of the event discussed in the Director's

letter of May 12. A Notice of Violation requiring a response pursuant to 10

CFR 2.201 has not been issued herewith in that your response to that letter

included corrective and preventive actions you have taken or plan to take to

achieve a fully satisfactory program.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of this

letter and the enclosed report will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.

If the report contains any information that you believe to be exempt from

disclosure under 10 CFR 9.5(a)(4),

it is necessary that you:

(a) notify this

office by telephone within ten days from the date of this letter of your

intention to file a request for withholding; and (b) submit within twenty-five

days from the date of this letter a written application to this office to

withhold such information. If your receipt of this letter has been delayed such

that less than seven days are available for your review, please notify this

office promptly so that a new due date may be established.. Consistent with

section 2.790(b)(1),

such application must

be accompanied by an affidavit

executed by the owner of the information which identifies the document or part

thereof sought to be withheld, and a full statement of the reasons on the basis

of which it

is claimed that the information should be withheld from public

disclosure.

This section further requires the statement to address with

specificity the considerations listed in 10 CFR. 2.790(b)(4).

The information

sought to be withheld shall be incorporated as far as possible into a separate

part of the affidavit.

If we do not hear from you in this regard within the

specified periods noted above, the report will be placed in the Public Document

Room.

Should you have any questions concerning this letter, we will be glad to discuss

them with you.

Sincerely,

ames. P. O'Reilly
