UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION IV 1600 E. LAMAR BLVD.
ARLINGTON, TX 76011-4511 March 20, 2018 IA-14-025 Mr. James P. Chaisson
[HOME ADDRESS DELETED UNDER 10 CFR 2.390(a)]
SUBJECT:
CONDITIONS OF NRCS ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD PANELS MEMORANDUM AND ORDER DATED JULY 2, 2015
Dear Mr. Chaisson:
This letter refers to the settlement dated June 30, 2015 between the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and you. The NRCs Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panels Memorandum and Order (Approving Settlement Agreement and Terminating Proceeding) dated July 2, 2015, approved that settlement agreement (NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) ML15183A056).
Condition 2(a) of that settlement agreement states, in part, that the following restriction shall persist from the date of this settlement agreement until April 14, 2018: (i) Mr. Chaisson shall contact NRC Region IV, via e-mail [EA-14-222@nrc.gov], once per quarter regarding his engagement in NRC-licensed activities and provide a brief summary of these activities. The summary shall include an overview of activities completed within the previous quarter and identification of known or intended work projections and locations for the next quarter.
During a January 20, 2016, telephone call, you stated that you thought the e-mail required by the settlement was not required because you had not been working in NRCs jurisdiction.
Mr. Vasquez of the NRC explained that there are no exceptions to this requirement. You sent an e-mail on January 23, 2016, that explained, in writing, that you misunderstood the settlement agreement in that you did not think the e-mail was required because you were not employed during that calendar quarter. You stated in your e-mail that you would now send an e-mail every quarter, as required.
The last communication the NRC received regarding your engagement in NRC-licensed activities was on July 22, 2017. Since that date, the NRC has attempted to reach you by telephone and email, with no response. The purpose of this letter is to remind you of the conditions that you committed to in the settlement agreement, and determine if your contact information has changed.
Your failure to satisfy the conditions of the settlement agreement could result in the NRC considering additional enforcement actions.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response, will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRC's Agencywide
J. Chaisson 2 Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
Because this letter references information related to an enforcement action against an individual, this letter will be maintained by the Office of Enforcement in an NRC Privacy Act system of records, NRC-3, Enforcement Actions Against individuals. The NRC-3 system notice, which provides detailed information about this system of records, can be accessed from the NRCs Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/foia/privacy-systems.html.
Should you have any questions regarding this letter or the enclosed Notice, please contact Mr. Michael Hay at 817-200-1455, or the undersigned at 817-200-1106.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Mark R. Shaffer, Director Division of Nuclear Materials Safety
