License No. R-103 EA 86-191 University of Missouri ATTN: Dr. Robert M. Brugger Director, Research Reactor Facility Research Park Columbia, MO 65201 Gentlemen:

This refers to your letters dated February 13, 1987 in response to the Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty sent to you by our letter dated January 15, 1987. The Notice describes violations identified during an NRC Safety inspection conducted at the University of Missouri Research Reactor Facility in Columbia, Missouri during the period August 26 through October 3, 1986.

To emphasize the need to ensure implementation of effective management control over your radiation safety program, a civil penalty of $4,000 was proposed.

In your response, you admitted the violations occurred as set forth in the Notice of Violation; however, you provided reasons why the civil penalty s should be mitigated.

After careful consideration of your response, we have concluded, for the reasons set forth in the enclosed Order and Appendix, that the violations did occur as .

originally stated and that mitigation of the penalty is not warranted. Accordingly, we hereby serve the enclosed Order Imposing Civil Monetary Penalty on the University of Missouri in the amount of Four Thousand Dollars ($4,000). We will review the effectiveness of your corrective actions during a subsequent inspection.

In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2 Title 10. Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and the enclosure will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.

Sincerely,

- /
