SUBJECT:
LICENSEE RESPONSES TO NOTICES OF VIOLATION AND NRC ACKNOWLEDGEMENT l
LETTERS l
Dear Mr. Cowan:
This letter is to inform you of a change being implemented by Region II regarding the. administrative processing of licensee responses to Notices of Violation (NOV).
Licensees are required to respond to NOVs in accordance with 10 CFR 2.201 or as described in the Notice itself. Historically, upon rettipt of such a response. Region II would review the response and provide a written letter to the licensee acknowledging the NOV response within approximately 30 days.
Many of the responses were routine and required little or no additional communications to determine the licensee's position regarding the issues or to determine the adecuacy of corrective actions.
Therefore, in most cases, the NRC letters servec only to document compliance with the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201 and provided no additional substantive information regarding the issues.
These letters were then distributed similar to the original NOV.
In an overall ef ' art to streamline processes and im) rove efficiency. Region II is beginning a process by which NOV responses will 3e formally acknowledged as part of periodically issued Integrated Inspection Reports. Specifically, licensee NOV responses which acce)t the violations and require no additional correspondence or communications aetween the NRC and the licensee, will be acknowledged in the cover letter of the next Integrated Inspection Report following receipt of the response.
This additional paragraph in the cover letter will reference the specific NOV. date of receipt of the licensee's lO response, and compliance with 10 CFR 2.201.
Notwithstanding the above. NRC letters acknowledging licensee NOV responses which fail to comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.201, involve denials or
. proposed impositions of civil penalties, or rea,uire additional communications L
or clarifying information from licensees will be reviewed and acknowledged by l
correspondence separate from the routine Integrated Inspection Report.
