| Description | During an NRC inspection conducted from June 25 through August 15, 2007, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, the NRC proposes to impose a civil penalty pursuant to Section 234 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (Act), 42 U.S.C. 2282, and 10 CFR 2.205. The particular violation and associated civil penalty are set forth below: 10 CFR 74.19 requires, in part, that (a) each licensee shall keep records showing the receipt, inventory (including location and unique identity), acquisition, transfer, and disposal of all special nuclear material (SNM) in its possession; (b) each licensee shall establish, maintain, and follow written material control and accounting (MC&A) procedures that are sufficient to enable the licensee to account for SNM in its possession; and (c) each licensee shall conduct a physical inventory of all SNM in its possession under license at intervals not to exceed 12 months. Contrary to the above: (a) Prior to June 2005, the licensee failed to establish and maintain an adequate inventory procedure and conduct annual physical inventories of incore detectors containing SNM that consisted of Unit 1 local power range monitors (LPRMs). These specific incore detectors remained stored onsite in open containers in the Unit 3 spent fuel pool (SFP). (b) Between 1973 and August 2007, the licensee did not keep complete records showing the inventory (including location and unique identity), transfer, and disposal of two fuel pellets; did not establish, maintain, and follow written MC&A procedures that were sufficient to enable the licensee to account for and control SNM; and did not conduct adequate physical inventories of two fuel pellets. These pellets could not be located by the licensee. (c) Between 1959 and August 2007, the licensee did not keep records showing the receipt, inventory (including location and unique identity), transfer, and disposal of a number of incore detectors containing SNM; did not establish, maintain, and follow written MC&A procedures sufficient to enable the licensee to account for and control SNM; and did not conduct physical inventories of incore detectors. These specific detectors could not be located by the licensee. (d) Between 1998 and June 2005, the licensee failed to perform adequate physical inventories of incore detectors that consisted of Unit 1 LPRMs and a Unit 3 LPRM that was hanging inside the Unit 3 SFP. This is a Severity Level III Problem (Supplement III). Civil Penalty - $65,000 (EA-07-200) |
