On November 9, 2023, the NRC issued a notice of violation and proposed imposition of civil penalty in the amount of $43,750 to Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC (licensee) for a Severity Level III violation. The violation involved the failure by the licensee’s staff at Oyster Creek to design and prepare radioactive materials for shipment so that, under conditions normally incident to transportation, the radiation level did not exceed 200 mrem/hour at any point on the external surface of the package. Specifically, on May 3, 2023, the licensee’s staff at Oyster Creek shipped reactor segmentation tooling that had a maximum contact dose rate of 450 mrem/hour, contrary to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 71.5.
