PART-21 NOTIFICATION - WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AND FALSIFICATION OF RECORDS The following report was excerpted from an e-mail:

"On September 28th, System One received an email from Curtis Wright that a 'forged' VT-1, 2, 3 Level II training record was being circulated by [an individual], who was seeking employment with Applied Technical Services.

"On September 28th 2016, System One voided the certification of [the individual] and proceeded to address the condition under the nonconformance reporting process.

"On October 11th, 2016, System One determined that [the individual], who was certified in VT-1, 2, 3 by the System One Quality Assurance Manager, did not fully meet the certification requirements of the System One Written Practice under CP-199 (in effect at the time) due to lack of acceptable VT [visual testing] Training (40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> of required class room training) to support the VT-1, VT-2 and VT-3 certification issued by System One. A review of the original certification record found/confirmed there was indication of alteration on a training record used for the original certification.

"On October 28th, 2016, System One notified stakeholders (AREVA NP). [The individual was deployed to Areva on two occasions] based upon holding VT-1, 2, 3 certification.

AREVA NP - deployed in 10/7/2012 to Cooper with VT-1, 2, 3 Certification AREVA NP - deployed in 3/31/2013 to DC Cook with VT-1, 2, 3 Certification Carolina Energy Services - deployed in 8/23/2013 - certification conducted by CES not System One LLC.

AREVA NP - deployed in 10/27/2013 to Palo Verde with PT Level II and QC Mechanical (not deployed for VT-1, 2, 3)

0312812017 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Operations Center Event Report Page 2 "AREVA NP has informed System One that they have conducted/completed their extent of condition review regarding work performed by [the individual], and confirmed to System One, that [the individual] did not perform any safety related VT-1, 2, 3 work at either the D. C. Cook or Cooper facilities.

"Our internal investigation has determined this matter does not represent a breakdown in the mechanics of the System One Quality Assurance Program or procedures in effect at the time. We have established the event

• rE!presents willful misconduct and the falsification of a record by an individual, and use of such forged record, under 10 CFR references contained in US NRC Information Notice 2013-15."
