This violation of very low safety significance was identified by Exelon and has been entered into Exelons
CAP and is being treated as an
NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the
Enforcement Policy
Violation:
10 CFR 71.5 requires that licensees who transport licensed material comply with the applicable requirements of the Department of Transportation (49 CFR). 49 CFR 172.202(a)(1) and (a)(2) require that the shipping description on the shipping paper include the proper shipping name and identification number for the material. 49 CFR 172.302(a) requires that shipments in bulk packages be marked with the identification number. Contrary to the above, on July 12, 2016, the shipping description on the shipping paper for shipment [[::JAF-2016-1613|JAF-2016-1613]] from FitzPatrick to
Tennessee did not include the proper shipping name and identification number for the material. Exelon identified the error during a subsequent review of the shipping paperwork. Significance/Severity Level: No examples of transportation issues are presented in
IMC 0612, Appendix E (Examples of Minor Issues).
IMC 0609, Appendix D, Section VII.C.e.1 lists examples of Green findings that include documentation deficiencies including failure to properly document compliance with 49 CFR requirements such as shipping papers. Corrective Action Reference: Exelon placed this issue into its
CAP as
CR-JAF-2016-02857. Corrective actions included providing a corrected shipping paper to the facility in
Tennessee that had received the package.
