RE: RESPONSE TO NOTICE OF VIOLATION FOR INSPECTION DATE May 29,1998

TEXAS RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS LICENSE NUMBER LO3096

Dear Sir,

,

In response to the " NOTICE OF VIOLATION" report number 150-00042/98-08 dated June 8,1998 are

the following:

VIOLATION: FAILURE TO FILE FOR RECIPROCITY UNDER OUR STATE OF TEXAS

LICENSE PRIOR TO WORKING IN AREAS UNDER NRC JURISDICTION IN

JANUARY 1998

1) The violation was corrected immediately upon it's discovery which was within 3 days of the initial

violation.

2) The reason leading up to and creating the environment in which the violation occurred was

a. Transfer of Radiation Safety Officer duties to new RSO

b. Transfer of Reciprocity documentation duties to new secretary

c. Lack of communication between field staff and secretary

3) In order to prevent a reoccurrence of the violation, Tracerco will provide refresher training on

procedure TP20 (OBTAINING RECIPROCITY) for all current and new employees.

4) Tracerco will be in full compliance by the end of the third quarter of 1998.

Thank you for your consideration of these items. If you need any additional information, please contact

me at 1-800-324-4424 or 713/488-0039.
