Notice of Violation This refers to the telephono discession between Mr. D. B. Spitzberg of this office and Nancy Thompson of your organization on December 30, 1981. The subject of the discussion was the fact that NRC records show that the Byproduct Materials License identified above has expired and no renewal application has been filed in accordance with Section 30.37 of Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 30.

From our discussion with your representative we learned that you still possess material in the fom of a sealed source which requires a specific NRC license. Your possession of that natorial without a valid, specific license is a violation of Section 30.3, 10 CFR Part 30.

Section 30.3 states:

Section 30.3 Activities requiring license. Except for persons exempt as provided in this part and Part 150 of this chapter, no person shall manufacture, produce, transfer, receive, acquire, own, possess, use, inport or export byproduct material except as authorized in a specific or general license issued pursuant to the regulations in this chapter.

This Notice of Violation is sent to you under 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 30 days of your receipt of this notice, a written statement or explanation in reply including:

(1) corrective steps which have been taken by you, and (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid this happening in the future.
