On September 30, 2014, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $3,500 to Metro Cardiovascular Diagnostics for a Severity Level III violation and a Severity Level III problem. The Severity Level III violation involved the licensee's nuclear medicine technologist (NMT) willfully failing to check the radiation survey meter for current calibration status prior to performing radiation surveys on June 28, 2012, and November 20, 2012, as required by the licensee's waste disposal procedure. In addition, several radiation safety violations were included as a Severity Level III problem and involved the failure to: (1) calibrate the survey meter; (2) verify the linearity of the dose calibrator; (3) verify the efficiency of the well counter; (4) perform sealed source leak tests; (5) perform sealed source physical inventories; (6) maintain records of hazardous material training; (7) perform an annual audit; and (8) implement the radiation safety program. The radiation safety activities were required by licensee procedures and 10 CFR Parts 20, 35, and 71.
