On May 20, 2016, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation to the Curtiss-Wright Corporation for a Severity Level III violation. The violation involved the failure to file an application and receive a specific license before exporting nuclear equipment to China. Specifically, on September 4, 2013, Curtiss-Wright exported four nozzle dams with associated nozzle dam control console and installation tools to China, for ultimate use at the Changjiang Nuclear Power Plant, that was not authorized by a general or specific license issued under 10 CFR Part 110. The NRC’s general license under 10 CFR 110.26, “General license for the export of nuclear reactor components,” does not authorize the export of nuclear reactor components to China, and Curtiss-Wright failed to obtain a specific license before shipping the nozzle dam equipment.
