Gentlemen:
Subject:
Inspection 50-320/85-15
}
An inspection was conducted by a representative of the State of Washington
Department of Social and Health Services on July 22, 1985 of a shipment of
radioactive waste from Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station.
The
shipment was inspected upon its arrival at the U. S. Ecology, Inc. , burial
site at Hanford, Washington. A special inspection was conducted by Mr. D. J.
Collins of this office on July 31 - August 5,1985, at Three Mile Island,
concerning this shipment.
'
Areas examined during the inspection at Hanford, Washington are described in a
report by a representative of the State of Washington Department of Social and
Health Services which is attached to the NPC Region I Inspection Report
enclosed with this letter.
Based on the results of these inspections, it appears that certain of your
activities were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as set
forth in the Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A.
This
4
violation has been categorized by severity level in accordance with the NRC
Enforcement Policy,10 CFR 2 Appendix C (1984).
You are required to respond
to this letter and in preparing your response, you should follow the in-
structions in Appendix A.
The violation for which you have been cited has already been the subject of
enforcement action by the State of Washington. On August 6, 1985 the State of
4
Washington suspended GPU Nuclear indefinitely from use of the Hanford,
Washington facility. The State of Washington subsequently reinstated the Site
Use Permit on August 16, 1985.
You were also required to submit evidence that
adequate measures had been implemented to assure compliance with all applica-
i
ble provisions of Federal and State law.
In view of the circumstances surrounding this matter, we have exercised our
<
.
discretion under the NRC Enforcement Policy and have chosen to issue the
'
enclosed Notice of Violation.
