The violation involved inaccurate measurements of radioactive material in effluentistreams..
In accordance with the " General. Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR.Part 2, Appendix C (1986), the violation is listed below:
10 CFR 20,201(b) requires that each licensee make or cause' to be made such surveys as may be necessary to demonstrate-compliances 'with the regulations and which are reasonable.under the circumstances to evaluate 3
the extent of radiation hazards that 'may be present.
10 CFR 20.201(a) defines survey to mean an evaldation of the radiation hazards incident to the production, use,. release, disposal, or ' presence of radioactive J
material.
