SUBJECT:
INSPECTION NO. 70-36/98-202 AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Dear Mr. Sharkey:
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) conducted a routine inspection of your facility's material control and accounting (MC&A) safeguards program on June 8 - 12,1998. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
The inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations of activities in progress. At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings were discussed with you and members of your staff.
Based upon the results of the inspection, the NRC has determined that a violation of NRC requirements occurred. The violation is cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation, and the circumstances surrounding the violation are described in detail in the enclosed report. The violation is of concem because it indicates an incomplete understanding of licensee requirements to maintain current knowledge of items listed in the item control program. Also of concem is the licensee's missed opportunity for corrective action prior to identification of the issue by the NRC inspection. Current knowledge of items must be maintained to ensure the safeguards risk of material loss, theft, or diversion is adequately addressed.
Under the provisions of Section 2.790(d), reports containing information related to a licensee's MC&A program are exempt from public disclosure. Accordingly, Enclosure 2 will 091 be placed in the Public Document Room.
i Should you have any questions concerning this report, please contact me at (301) 415-7156.
