Attention:

Mr. Frank J. Huber

Construction Engineer

Gentlemen:

This refers to your respons2 dated July 24, 1979 to our flotice of Violation

dated July 13, 1979.

We are in agreement wid yrar statement that your possession of the Nuclear

Instruments Corporation Model NIC-5 was authorized by Amendment No. 4 to NRC

License No. 50-15852-01.

Because our inspector saw the instrument on another

license issued to the Municipality of Anchorage with an expiration date of

February 28, 1978, he assumed that it was being possessed without authorization.

When he mentioned this at the exit interview, the point was not disputed by

your representative, Mr. Mike Kruger.

We apologize for the oversight.

On the other hand, we believe that the second item of noncompliance is valid.

Your current License No. 50-15852-01 requires that sealed sources be leak tested

at six month intervals.

It does not contain a condition exempting the sou.'ces

from leak tests while in storage and not being used.

It appears that at the

time of the inspection, the source in youi Campbell Pacific gauge had not been

leak tested since April 27, 1977.

You should take steps to assure that the

source is leak tested at six month intervals.

All requests for license amendments must be sent to our Washington, D. C. office.

Therefore, you should somit your request in the last paragraph of your July 24

letter to:

U. S. t'uclear Regulatory Commission

Radioisotopes Licensing Branch, NMSS

Washington, D. C.

You may also want to request exemption of the leak test requirement while your

sources are in storage.

Should vou nave any further questions concerning these matters of noncompliance,

we v.

5e glad to discuss then with you.

If you have no further questions,

.

we v.ill still require the written statenent concerning Item 2 referred to in

our letter of July 13, 1979.

Your cooperation with us is appreciated.

Sincerely,
