On September 22, 2022, the NRC issued a notice of violation (Notice) and proposed imposition of $96,000 in Civil Penalties to the Air Force Medical Readiness Agency (licensee) for three Severity Level (SL) III problems associated with ten related violations. The violations involved the licensee’s failure: (1) to maintain and implement its Master Materials License (MML) program consistent with the associated NRC inspection and enforcement programs; (2) to provide adequate oversight at Kirkland Air Force Base (KAFB) and ensure that activities conducted under the permit were authorized under the MML, were consistent with NRC regulations, and established a radiation protection program that was protective of personnel, the public, and the environment; and (3) to provide oversight and control of specific locations at KAFB. In addition, the Notice included one SL III violation for the licensee’s failure to secure or maintain surveillance of licensed material, and other violations of low security significance that were categorized in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy at Severity Level IV.
