A finding of very low safety significance A finding of very low safety significance and associated NCV of 10 CFR 71.5 was identified by the inspectors on February 2, 2012, due to the licensees failure to maintain a licensed material shipment on file for at least one year after the latest shipment, and not providing on request, complete documentation of tests supporting the engineering evaluation or comparative data showing that the construction methods, packaging design, and materials of construction complied with the Type A specification. Specifically, the licensee maintained a container certificate from the owner of a container that stated the container complied with the specification testing of 49 CFR 173.465, but upon further review, the testing basis for the engineering evaluation could not be produced by the package owner for the use of the shipper and review by the NRC. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as CR 01730713. The inspectors determined that the licensees failure to maintain a licensed material shipment on file for at least one year after the latest shipment, and not providing on request, complete documentation of tests supporting the engineering evaluation or comparative data showing that the construction methods, packaging design, and materials of construction comply with the Type A specification, was a performance deficiency. The inspectors determined that the performance deficiency was more than minor and a finding because, if left uncorrected, failing to maintain and provide licensed material shipment documentation would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors evaluated the finding in accordance with IMC 0609 Appendix D, Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the performance deficiency did not involve exceeding a radiation limit, a breach of package during transit, a certificate of compliance, low level ground burial, or failure to make notification or provide emergency information. The inspectors determined that the contributing cause that provided the most insight into the performance deficiency was associated with the cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance, having Work Practices components, and involving the licensee not ensuring supervisory and management oversight of work activities, including contractors, such that nuclear safety is supported.rs, such that nuclear safety is supported.
