ATTN: Mr. R. E. Voit
President
140 Stoneridge Drive
Columbla, SC 29210
SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 710231/98 201
AND NOTICE OF NONCONFORMANCE
Dear Mr. Voit:
On January 5-9,1998, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission performed an announced
inspection of Chem Nuclear Systems (CNS) at its offices in Columbia and Barnwell, S.C. The
enclosed inspection report presents the details of that inspection.
The team inspected CNS's activities associated with the transportation of radioactive material to
- determine if they were executed in accordance with the requirements of Parts 21 and 71 of
'
Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), certificates of compliance, safety analysis
'
reports, and the NRC approved quality assurance program. The team inspected CNS's
management and maintenance controls.
The team concluded that CNS's management and maintenance controls were generally
acceptable. However, the inspectors found that CNS failed to meet certain NRC requirements.
The team found a total of eight nonconformances occurcing in the areas of nonconformance
control, documentation control, and maintenance activities. All of the nonconformances identified
were of moderate to low safety significance. The nonconformances of special concern to the
NRC are CNS's inadequate training in 10 CFR Part 21 requirements, failure to implement
corrective actions resulting from a previous NRC inspection, and failure to translate cafety
analysis report requirements into instructions, procedures, or drawings.
The team did not find any issues that affected the capability of packagings to perform their
intended safety function. Furthermore, the inspectors found CNS personnel to be knowledgeable ,
and prom::tive in resolving problemc and other issues. In idition, the team found that most of /,
CNS's procedures reviewed were of good quality.
Please provide us, within 30 days of the date of this letter, a written statement in accordance with
the instructions specified in the enclosed Notice of Nonconformance. Wo will consHer extending
the response time if you can show good cause for us to do so.
