NOTICE OF VIOLATION State University of New York at Buffalo Docket No. 50-57 Buffalo Materials Research Center License No. R-77 l
During an NRC inspection conducted on March 3-5, 1993, violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, the violations are listed below.
A.
Emergency Plan Section 2 requires an annual review of the Emergency Plan and Emergency Procedures by the Facility Operating Committee.
Contrary to the above, no reviews of the Emergency Plan and Emergency Procedures were conducted by the Facility Operating Committee for the period 1989 through 1992.
B.
Emergency Plan Section 14 requires three emergency drills each year, including two evacuation drills and one action drill.
Contrary to the above, the licensee had conducted only one of the required action drills in the period 1989 through 1992.
These are Severity Level V violations (Supplement VIII).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, the State University of New York at Buffalo is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATrN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region I, within 30 Ays of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a " Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation: (1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a Demand for Information may be issued to show cause why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
