Description

On April 27, 2022, the NRC issued a notice of violation and proposed imposition of civil penalty in the amount of $3,500 to the Defense Health Agency (licensee) for a Severity Level III violation. The violation involved the licensee’s failure to control and maintain constant surveillance of licensed material that is in a controlled or unrestricted area and that is not in storage, as required by Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 20.1802. In addition, the notice included one SLIV violation for the licensee’s failure to report by telephone to the NRC Headquarters Operations Center immediately after it was aware that licensed material was missing in an aggregate quantity equal to or greater than 1,000 times the quantity specified in Appendix C to 10 CFR Part 20 and under such circumstances that it appears that an exposure could result to persons in unrestricted areas, as required by 10 CFR 20.2201(a).
