Ken Clark (404) 331-5503 (Friday, January 3, 1997) i Roger Hannah (404) 331-7878 NRC STAFF ISSUES ORDER TO FORMER NORTH ANNA CONTRACT EMPLOYEE PR0HIBITING INVOLVEMENT IN NRC LICENSED ACTIVITIES l
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has issued an Order to a former i
contract employee at Virginia Power Company's North Anna nuclear power plant i
which prohibits involvement in NRC-licensed activities for a one-year period and requires notification to the NRC of the person's first involvement in NRC-licensed activities for an additional year after the prohibition expires.
1 l
NRC officials sent notification to Cecil Ray Owen on January 2.
informing him of the action.
The action was taken because Owen failed to state his i
com)1ete employment history, as required, on a 1995 application for employment witi Westinghouse Electric Corporation at North Anna in order to conceal that he l
had tested positive for use of controlled substances while working for a previous employer.
NRC officials said his actions demonstrated untrustworthiness to conduct l
activities an an NRC-license facility.
