As a result of the inspection conducted during the period of October 27 through November 6, 1986, and telephone discussions of November-19-20, 1986, and in accordance with NRC Enforcement Policy 10 CFR, Part 2, Appendix C, the following violations were identified:

A. 10 CFR Part 20.20_3(f)(1) requires that containers of licensed material shall bear a durable, clearly visible label identifying the radioactive contents. 10 CFR Part 20.203(f)(2) requires that the labels should provide sufficient information to permit individuals handling or using the containers, or working in the vicinity thereof, to take precautions to avoid or minimize exposures.

Contrary to the above, on October 29, 1986 process radiation monitoring instruments R15003 and R15007 contained licensed radioactive check sources and did not bear labels with the information specified in 10 CFR Part 20.203(f)(2).
