Your possession of that material without a valid, specific license is a violation of Section 30.3 of 10 CFR Part 30.

Section 30.3 states:

"Except for persons exempt as provided in this part or Part 150 of this I

chapter, no person shall manufacture, produce, transfer, receive, acquire, own, possess, or use, by product material except as authorized in a specific or general license issued pursuant to the regulations in this I

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 a written statement or explanation in reply including:

corrective steps which have been taken to avoid this happening in the future.

Since you plan to possess radioactive material in the future, your corrective steps must include prompt filing of an application for a materials license.

Accordingly, you must determine if your program is subject to a license fee as required by Section 170.31 of'10 CFR Part 170 and, if one is required, submit the appropriate fee along with the application. Copies of appropriate applications and guides are enclosed for your use.

You are required to reply to this Notice within 30 days of the date above.
