Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Brinton C. Donalson, D.O.
License No. 21-15508-01 Based on the inspection conducted on February 24, 1981, it appears that certain of your activities were in noncompliance with NRC requirements, as noted below. Items 1 through 5 are infractions and item 6 is a deficiency.
1.
10 CFR 20.101(a) limits the whole body exposure of an individual in a restricted area to one and one quarter rems per calendar quarter, except as provided by 10 ~ CFR 20.101(b). Paragraph (b) allows a whole body exposure of three rems per calendar quarter provided certain specified conditions are met.
Contrary to this requirement, an individual working in your restricted area received a whole body radiation dose of 2.120 rems during the third calendar quarter of 1980, and the conditions of paragraph (b) were not met.
2.
10 CFR 20.405(a) requires that you submit within 30 days a report to the Commission concerning each exposure to radiation in excess of any applicable limit in Part 20 or in your license.
10 CFR 19.13(a) requires that this report be submitted to the individual exposed.
Contrary to these requirements, as of February 24, 1981, you failed to report to the Commission, and to the individual exposed, the exposure described in item 1 above.

Condition No. 14 of your license requires that licensed material be possessed and used in accordance with the statements, representations, and procedures contained in certain referenced applications and letters.
The referenced application dated June 2, 1978, states in Item 10 that the dose calibrator will be calibrated in accordance with the procedures described in Appendix D Section 2 of NUREG-0338.
This section requires the dose calibrator be tested quarterly for linearity.
Contrary to the above, the dose calibrator has not been tested for linearity of operation since the date of license issuance on June 15 1978.
