APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION GPU Nuclear Corporation Docket No. 50-320 Three Mile Island Unit 2 License No. DPR-73 As a result of the inspection conducted on July 31 - August 5,1985, and in accordance with the revised NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2 Appendix C),
published in the Federal Register on March 8, 1984 (49 FR 8583), the following violation was identified.
10 CFR 20.311 requires that any generating licensee who transfers radioactive waste to a licensed land disposal facility prepare all wastes so that the waste is classified according to 10 CFR 61.55.
10 CFR 61.55 allows radioactive wastes containing less than 0.04 curies per cubic meter (C1/m3) strontium-90 (Sr-90) to be classified as Class A waste if requirements for other radionuclides are also met; but if the concentration of Sr-90 exceeds 0.04 Ci/m3 and is less than 150 Ci/m3, the waste is required to be classified as Class B, if the requirements for other radionuclides are met.
Contrary to the above, on July 18, 1985 three barrels transferred for disposal in Waste Shipment RS-85-063-II did not meet these requirements in that thrce packages, numbered 84-D-II-538, 85-D-II-028, and 05-D-11-030, were classified and packaged as Class A, rather than Class B uhen they contained concentrations of Sr-90 at 0.052 Ci/m3, 0.059 Ci/m3 and 0.047 Ci/n3 respectively.
This is a Severity Level III Violation (Supplement V).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, GPU Nuclear Corporation is hereby required to submit to this office within 30 days of the date of this Notice, a written statenent or explanation in reply including:
(1) the corrective steps
which have been tcken and the results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved for the violations. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending your response time.
