## Description

On April 29, 2014, the NRC issued a Severity Level III (SL III) Notice of Violation to Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. for a violation identified as a result of an investigation by the NRC Office of Investigations. This violation involves the former Chemistry Manager at Indian Point Energy Center deliberately entering false data into a Chemistry database pertaining to an Emergency Diesel Generator fuel oil storage tank and the reserve fuel oil storage tank. The falsification of records caused Indian Point to operate Units 2 and 3 in violation of technical specifications (TS) and to avert a dual-unit shut-down required by TS 3.03. Additionally, a SL III NOV and an order were issued banning the former IP Chemistry Manager from participating in NRC activities for a period of one year for violating Title 10 of the CFR 50.5.
