NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Dear Mr. Stanton:

This letter refers to our inspection conducted on January 14, 2019, at your temporary job site

location at the Water and Power Authority Desalination Plant, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. This

inspection was a reciprocity inspection to review the safety and security of your source control

while you conducted radiography activities in areas under NRC jurisdiction. This inspection

examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to public health and safety, and

to confirm compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations. Within these areas, the

inspection consisted of selected examination of procedures and representative records,

observations of activities, and interviews with personnel. Additional information was gathered

during telephone calls with you on January 28, 2019, and during the inspection exit meeting with

you and Derek James, on January 31, 2019

Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has determined that two Severity Level IV

violations of NRC requirements occurred. These violations were evaluated in accordance with

the NRC Enforcement Policy. The current Enforcement Policy is included on the NRC's Web

site at https://www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/regulatory/enforcement/enforce-pol.html. The violations

are cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) because the violations were identified by

the NRC.

You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions specified in the

enclosed Notice when preparing your response. If you have additional information that you

believe the NRC should consider, you may provide it in your response to the Notice. The NRC

review of your response to the Notice will also determine whether further enforcement action is

necessary to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be

made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room located at

NRC Headquarters in Rockville, MD, and from the NRCs document system, the Agencywide
