On June 15, 2004, a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $19,200 was issued for a Severity Level II problem involving multiple violations related to an overexposure of radiographer, including issues such as failure to survey, failure to calibrate and inspect equipment, and failure to follow procedures. Although normal application of the civil penalty assessment process would have resulted in a base penalty, the NRC exercised discretion and proposed twice the base penalty because of the licensee's particularly poor performance.
