AFRDIR MEMORANDUM FOR U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTN: Document Control Desk Washington DC 20555-0001
SUBJECT:
Reply to Notice of Violation Dated 29 March 2017 for Docket 50-170 License R-84 25 April 2017 Reason for the Violation. Due to the closure of Walter Reed in Washington DC, a significant portion of the base was transferred to the NSAB (Naval Support Activity Bethesda). To accommodate the large influx of new employees and their vehicles, the function of allocation and control of all parking lots on the base was taken over by the Commander, NSAB. The parking lots adjacent to the AFRRI complex were affected by this action. At the time of notification of the change in base policy regarding jurisdiction over the base parking lots, the Reactor Facility Director brought the action and the license ramifications to the attention of management. It was decided by management that the interpretation of 'jurisdiction and control of activities" was sufficiently vague that no action on the part of the licensee was required.
Assessment of safety consequences. There are no safety or security consequences associated with this violation.
The AFRRI complex is located on a heavily guarded and controlled complex. AFRRI always has and continues to have jurisdiction and control ofactivities within the lots adjacent to the AFRRI complex. Should additional controls on the-parking lots be required to respond to an emergency condition, the NSAB could provide the additional support. The only change that was made by the NSAB was control over parking permits and vehicular-control within these lots. The emergency plan does not specify control of parking, just jurisdiction and control of activities within these lots.
Corrective Actions to be taken. A meeting was held with management and the current NSAB Commander. The NSAB Commander agreed to restore full jurisdiction and control of the affected parking lots adjacent to the AFRRI complex, to include parking permits and vehicular control. This action will be completed within 90 days of this correspondence.
