Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-327/93-44 AND 50-328/93-44)
'
This refers to the inspection conducted by E. D. Testa of this office on
,
September 13-17, 1993. The inspection included a review of activities
authorized for your Sequoyah facility. At the conclusion of the inspection
the findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified in the
report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
,
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
'
activities in progress.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation. We are concerned about the violation because failure to follow
procedures for labeling, storing, and handling of radioactive material could
j
result in unnecessary exposure of personnel.
The enclosed Inspection Report
also identifies activities that violated NRC requirements that will not be
subject to enforcement action because your efforts in correcting the violation
met the criteria specified in Section VII.B. of the Enforcement Policy.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
l
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790(a), a copy of this letter and its enclosures
will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
