Dear Dr. Mecredy:
SUBJECT:
NRC Inspection No. 50-244/92-19
An unannounced
safety inspection of the radiological controls program at your facility was
conducted by J. Noggle on December
14 - 18, 1992.
The inspection findings were discussed
with members of your staff on December
18, 1992.
Areas reviewed during the inspection were important to health and safety and. are discussed.
in the enclosed inspection report.
These areas included review of: technician training,and
qualifications, audits and surveillances,
instrument calibrations and health physics program
improvement initiatives.
The technician training and qualification program has undergone significant improvements
including the establishment, of the Training Upgrade Project and the Training Advisory
Committee.
Also demonstrated
was an involvement of mana'gement in training program
'
improvements.
Audits and surveillances of the HP program were adequate,
but generally
were of very broad scope and did not always include review of detailed program areas.
However, excellent program oversight was demonstrated in response to an improper entry to
Prompt and appropriate actions were initiated to prevent recurrence,
and, as a result, this was considered
a non-cited violation. The instrument calibration
program was found to be sound and of very good quality.
Good health physics program
initiatives were identified including the determination of a better method for decontaminating
the cavity and the addition of a quality improvement specialist to the health physics
department.
One Unresolved Item was identified during this inspection involving the
adequacy of training records.
This item willbe reviewed during a future inspection.
No response
to this letter is required.
