License No. 22-15932-01 ATTN:
Richard DeBolt President 1816 North Road Duluth, MN 55811 Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. J. R. Martin of this office on Augus* IP and 19, 1980, of activities at Twin Ports Testing, Inc., authorizee sy NRC Materials License No. 22-15932-01 and to the discussion of our findings with you and others of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
The inspection was an examination of activities conducted under your license as they relate to radiation safety and to compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The inspection consisted of a selective examination of procedures and representative records, observations, independent measurements, and interviews with personnel.
We also reviewed the actions taken to correct the previous item of noncompliance identified in our letter dated July 17, 1979. We have no further questions with respect to this item.
This notice is sent to you pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.201 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations.
Section 2.201 requires you to submit to this office within twenty days of your receipt of this notice a written statement or explanation in reply, including for each item of noncompliance:
(1) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid further noncompliance; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
We are also concerned that the radiation safety knowledge of radio-graphers at Twin Ports Testing is inadequate.
Interviews with your personnel indicate the necessity for a more comprehensive training effort with special emphasis placed upon inverse square and shielding calculations. Furthermore, we are concerned that the format of your utilization log is inadequate to accurately indicate the amount of radiation that could be received by individuals in unrestricted areas during any given hour.
Please address these items of concern in your written reply to this letter.

We will gladly discuss any questions you have concerning this inspection.
Sincerely, A. B. Davis, Chief Fuel Facility and Materials Safety Branch
