## Description

On February 11, 2015, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation to High Mountain Inspection Services, Inc. for a Severity Level III violation involving the failure to comply with 10 CFR 34.49(b) which requires a licensee to conduct a radiation survey of a radiographic exposure device and the guide tube after each radiographic exposure when approaching the device or guide tube.

There was no unnecessary radiation exposure or overexposure to workers as a result of this violation.
