included in your respon,se are presented in the enclosed Notice of Violation.
In the exit interview, plant management requested that the issue regarding
entries into radiation work permit areas and contamination zones by personnel
without current training and whole body counts be considered licensee identified.
We have reviewed this request in light of the self-identification criteria in
10 CFR 2, Appendix C, Section V. A and determined that the issue did not meet all
the criteria listed in 10 CFR 2 in that the issue was not corrected, including
measures to prevent recurrence, within a reasonable time.
In addition, during the exit interview, plant management requested that the issue
involving the uptake of radioactive material by a worker on September 27, 1985,
be considered self-identified.
We.have reviewed the circumstances involving this
occurrenc! and have concluded it meets the criteria for self-identification.
Consequently, there is no violation for this issue.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2,
Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and its enclosure
