NRC ORDER – —

On January 23, 2008, a Demand for Information (DFI) was issued to Mattingly Testing Services, Inc. (Mattingly Testing) in response to the information obtained during November 7, 2007, inspection and investigation of Mattingly Testing's licensed activities. While the inspection and investigation activities continue, the DFI required Mattingly Testing to provide information in order for the NRC to evaluate and determine the appropriateness of Mattingly Testing's licensed material program at temporary job sites. The DFI also required Mattingly Testing to provide information in order for the NRC to evaluate the depth and completeness of Mattingly Testing's work environment and its determination that it maintains an environment where employees can raise safety concerns without fear of retaliation. Specifically, the DFI required Mattingly Testing to provide additional details relative to the establishment, implementation and maintenance of a program designed to provide and support such a work environment. Mattingly Testing is required to submit the information in writing within 20 days of the date of this DFI. After reviewing Mattingly Testing's response to the DFI, the NRC will determine whether further action is necessary to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
