SUBJECT:
ORDER PROHlBITING INVOLVEMENT IN NRC-LICENSED ACTIVITIES (EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY)
(NRC Investigation 4-96-044)
Dear Mr. Bandy:
The enclosed Order Prohibiting involvement in NRC-Licensed Activities is being issued to you as a consequence of the findinge, by the NRC Office of Investigations that concluded you deliberately falsified information which you provided on an application to obtain access authorization at Omaha Public Power District's (licensee) Fort Calhoun Station nuclear power plant, and that you subsequently provided false information relating to the application to the licensee and an NRC inspector. The Order prohibits your involvement in NRC-licensed' activities for a period of five years.
The NRC has determined that you: (1) deliberataly falsified information during the course of 1993 with respect to your application to obtain unescorted access to Fort Calhoun Station to indicate that you had been convicted in 1991 on a charge of speeding when, in fact, you had been convicted on a charge of theft of personal property; (2) altered copies of court records regardi1g your conviction to make it appear that you had been convicted of speeding; and (3) made false statements when questioned about your criminal history in 1993 by the licensee and in 1996 by the licensee and an NRC inspector.
The false information that you provided to the licensee and the NRC caused you to be in violation of 10 CFR 50.5, " Deliberate Misconduct." Specifically, Section 50.5(a)(2)'
provides, in part, that any employee.of a licensee may not deliberately subrnit to a licensee information that the person submitting the information knows to be incomplete or inaccurate in some respect material to the NRC. The false information that you L
submitted was material because licensees are required to consider criminal history in making a determination as to whether to grant you unescorted access in accoidance with 10 CFR 73.56.
