The inspectors also confirmed that the Radiation Protection Program was reviewed annually. The inspectors found that the ALARA Policy provided guidance for keeping doses as low as possible and was consistent with the requirements in 10 CFR Part 20.

(4)

Radiation Worker Training The inspectors noted that all university personnel who worked in radiation areas or handled radioactive material, including licensee staff, were required to receive training in radiation protection. The inspectors confirmed that the reactor staff members completed the required training and were then issued a dosimeter. The inspectors noted that the personnel training program satisfied requirements in 10 CFR 19.12, Instruction to workers, and that the content and periodicity of the training were in accordance with the regulations.

(5)

Environmental and Effluent Monitoring The inspectors confirmed that gaseous releases continued to be monitored as required. The inspectors noted that the doses resulting from the releases were calculated by the Rad Safety Office according to established procedures, using the Environmental Protection Agency COMPLY code. The dose rate to the public was well below the dose constraint of 10 millirem per year specified in 10 CFR 20.1101, Radiation protection programs, paragraph (d). The inspectors found that the concentrations of airborne gaseous releases were also calculated by the

- 6 -

Rad Safety Office. The inspectors confirmed that the concentrations of gaseous releases were well within those stipulated in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, and TS limits. The results were documented in the facility annual reports, as required by the TSs.

The inspectors found that there were no liquid releases from the facility to the sanitary sewer within the past 2 years since the last inspection of this area and no solid waste was transferred from the facility to the campus Rad Safety Office during that period.

The inspectors confirmed that onsite and off-site gamma radiation monitoring was completed using environmental TLDs in accordance with university procedures. The inspectors found that the data indicated no measurable doses above any regulatory limits in the areas surrounding the UUTR facility.

The inspectors found that this shipping process was followed.

The inspectors noted that none of the licensee personnel has the current training required to ship radioactive material as required by the Department of Transportation. Therefore, in any instance involving the shipment of radioactive material, the paperwork and shipments would be completed by qualified Rad Safety Office personnel.

- 9 -

c.

Conclusion The inspectors determined that the licensee transferred radioactive waste material to the campus Rad Safety Office as needed and the Rad Safety Office handled any shipments of radioactive material from the facility.

8.

Follow-up on Previous Items a.

Inspection Scope (IP 92702)

The inspectors reviewed the following licensees actions taken in response to previously identified items.

b.

Observation and Findings (1)

Inspector Follow-up Item (IFI) 50-407/2019-202-01 - (Open) - Follow-up on the licensees actions to complete the revision of the E-Plan and have it reviewed and approved by the RSC.

10 CFR 50.34, Contents of Applications, Technical Information, requires in Section (b)(6)(v) that each application for an operating license shall include a final safety analysis report. The final safety analysis shall include plans for coping with emergencies.

The University of Utah, Utah Nuclear Engineering Program (UNEP)

Emergency Plan, dated June 2011, requires in Section 10.4, Emergency Plan Review and Update, requires that the RS (Reactor Supervisor)

shall periodically revise and update the Emergency Plan and the RSC (Reactor Safety Committee) shall review and approve the overall UNEP Emergency Plan to ensure that the Plan is adequate and current, and shall specifically review and approve any revisions to the Emergency Plan that affect implementation procedures.

In August 2019, an inspector noted that the RSC did not complete a biennial review of the E-Plan. This was because a revision of the E-Plan to incorporate suggested changes was not finished. The licensee indicated that the revision was in progress and would be ready for review by the December meeting of the RSC. The licensee was informed that the revision of the E-Plan, and review and approval by the RSC, would be designated as an IFI. During subsequent inspections it was noted that the E-Plan was still being revised and, because of the ongoing revisions, the RSC had not reviewed the plan.

During this inspection, the inspectors reviewed the issue and found that the E-Plan was revised various times since 2019 and a review by the RSC was still pending. Because there have been numerous changes in the Facility Director and Reactor Supervisor positions since the issue was first noted, the licensee has not followed this issue properly and no review by the RSC has occurred as required. This issue is noted as a violation of an administrative requirement in the Emergency Plan and does not adversely affect the public health and safety. This failure to comply with the University of Utah Emergency Plan, Section 10.4 constitutes a minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the

- 10 -

NRC Enforcement Policy. However, this issue remains open.

(2)

IFI 05000407/2021201-02 - (Open) - Follow-up on the licensees actions to revise procedure UNEP-002R4, Biennial Fuel/Tank/Control Rod/Reflector Element Inspection, to include maintenance actions needed during control rod inspection.

In 2021, the inspector reviewed the circumstances surrounding a Special Report issued by the licensee, dated April 2, 2020, documenting a component malfunction.

On March 30, 2020, facility personnel completed the routine monthly inspection of various reactor components and systems and initiated a standard reactor startup and termination checklist to test all systems. The licensee staff noted that the safety rod did not drop as expected.

Troubleshooting showed that the safety rod was not responding as required and the Reactor Supervisor (RS) terminated the operation. The safety rod was disassembled, and rust and calcium deposits were noted and subsequently removed. Following these corrective actions, the safety rod was inspected, reassembled, and reinstalled in the core. Testing and calibration of the safety rod indicated that the malfunction was resolved, and the rod functioned properly.

The licensee submitted a letter to the NRC concerning the component malfunction in which the licensee indicated that the procedure involving the inspection of the control rods, UNEP-002R4, Biennial Fuel/Tank/

Control Rod/Reflector Element Inspection, would be revised to include checking for debris, binding, rubbing, or misalignment of the control rod drives that might prevent the control rods from dropping. The licensee was informed that the issue would be considered an IFI. During an inspection in July 2023, this issue was reviewed, and the inspector found that no action was taken on the procedure to that point.

During this inspection, the inspectors found that, since the inspection in 2020, changes occurred in the RS position at the facility and operators who were aware of the situation. Consequently, the current RS and operators have not completed the revision to the procedure. This issue remains open.

(3)

IFI 05000407/2023201-02 - (Open) - Follow-up on the reactor tank repair and the complete stoppage of tank water loss due to leakage.

The inspector reviewed the circumstances surrounding the notification made by the licensee on March 31, 2023, to the NRC regarding a reactor pool leak at the UUTR. The UUTR staff personnel noted the reactor tank developed a leak of approximately 24 gallons per day (gals/day). The licensee noted that there was no indication of leakage to the environment and the leakage did not reach or exceed any reporting criteria. However, a few days later the licensee noted that the leak rate increased to about 50 gallons a day. Water samples taken when the leak rate increased continued to show there were no activity levels that reached any reporting criteria or above any regulatory limit.

- 11 -

The licensee determined the most probable leak site would be a degraded weld presumably toward the bottom of the circumference of the tank (the point of highest pressure). To resolve the leak problem, the licensee hired a contractor to apply two-part epoxy sealant material to the weld areas around the bottom three sections of the tank. During an inspection in July 2023, the inspector observed the repair work on the tank. At the completion of the inspection, the inspector noted that leak appeared to have stopped but that the success of the repair project would need to be evaluated further during a future inspection. The licensee was informed that the issue of the reactor tank repair and the complete stoppage of tank water loss due to leakage would be considered an IFI.

During this inspection the inspectors noted that the original problem with a leak at a weld seam was resolved. However, following approximately one month, a new leak developed, and the licensee is currently taking action to repair the reactor tank a second time. This will involve removing the reactor fuel from the tank and draining the tank so that an epoxy coating can be applied to the entire interior surface of the tank. As a result, this IFI will remain open.

(4)

URI 05000407/2023201-03 - (Closed) - Follow-up on the possible impact the tank leak may have had on the facility and/or the surrounding.

environment and any potential violations that may have occurred as a result.

As a result of the tank leak mentioned above, the NRC determined that an Unresolved Item (URI) was warranted to follow up on the possible impact the tank leak may have had on the facility and/or the surrounding environment and any potential violations that may have occurred as a result (URI 05000407/2023201-03).

During this inspection the inspectors discussed the reactor tank leak with personnel from the Rad Safety Office and reviewed the extensive documentation of sampling that they conducted following the initial reactor tank leak. The inspectors noted that Rad Safety personnel sampled numerous locations around the reactor facility and down-stream from the reactor. None of the samples indicated radioisotopes in concentrations that would be reportable to the NRC. Also, the sampling showed that the concentration of tritium in the water in the area was below the levels considered safe for drinking by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The sampling is continuing. The Rad Safety Office is also coordinating their efforts with the State of Utah EPA and keeping that office informed of all their findings. Based upon the findings during this inspection discussed above, this issue is closed.

c.

Conclusion The inspectors determined that one URI was closed and three IFIs remain open.
