. NOTICE OF VIOLATION Westinghouse CNFD Docket No. 70-1151 Columbia, SC Certificate No. SNM-1107 During an NRC inspection conducted April 27 - May 1,1998, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In a.ccordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG-1600, the violation is listed below:
Condition S-1 of Special Nuclear Materials License No. SNM-1107, Authorized Use, requires use oflicensed materials in accordance with statements, representations, and j conditions in the License Application dated April 30,1995, and supplements dated May 11,18; August 4,25; and September 25,1995; and July 25 and August 11,
)
j 1997.
1 Section 6.2.1, General Control Program Practices, states, in part, that "for each !
significant portion of the process, a defense of one or more system parameters will be employed and documented within the Nuclear Criticality Safety Evaluation . . . Prior to use in any process, nuclear criticality safety controls will be verified against design ,
criteria. A program for routine maintenance and testing will assure continued I compliance." l Contrary to the above, as of April 30,1998, continued compliance was not assured for !
a nuclear criticality safety control as employed and documented within a nuclear criticality safety evaluation, in that, the 1008 Ammonia Scrubber was operated since May 1997 with an inoperable nuclear criticality safety control.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement VI).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, USEC is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555 with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and Chief, Fuel Cycle Operations Branch, Division of Fuel Cycle Safety and Safeguards, NMSS, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a " Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include: (1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Your response may reference or include previously docketed correspondence if the correspondence adequately addressed the required response. If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or Demand for Information may be issued as to why the Certificate should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other actions as may be proper should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
I Because your respond will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR), to the extent f possible, it should not include any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be placed in the PDR without redaction. If personal privacy or proprietary information 9907010222 900626 Enclosure 1 PDR ADOCK 07001151 C PDR
2-t is necessary to provide an acceptable response, then please provide a bracketed copy of your response that identifies the information that should be protected and a redacted copy of your response that deletes such information. If you request withholding of such material, you must specifically identify the portions of your response that you seek to have withheld, and provide in detail the bases for your claim of withholding (e.g., explain why the disclosure ofinformation will create an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy or provide the information required by 10 CFR 2.790 (b) to support a request for withholding confidential commercial or financial information. If safeguards information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.21.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 26th day of June 1998
