APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Northeast Nuclear Energy Company Docket Nos. 50-245 50-336 Millstone Nuclear Power Station License Nos. OPR-21 DPR-65 As a result on an inspection conducted on September 29, 1981 by an NRC inspector at Barnwell, South Carolina of a shipment of radioactive waste sent from your facility in Waterford, Connecticut on September 25, 1981, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7, 1980), the following violation was identified:
10 CFR 30.41 prohibits transfer of byproduct material unless it is in a form authorized by the recipient's NRC or Agreement State license.
South Carolina License No. 097, an Agreement State license issued to Chem-Nuclear Systems, Inc., prohibits the receipt of solidified waste with " detectable free standing liquid" which is defined in the license as liquid in excess of 0.5 percent by waste volume for drums, which corresponds to 0.275 gallons per 55 gallon drum.
