On March 20, 1991, a Notice of Violation (NOV) and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $10,000 was issued to Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. (NFS). This action is based on a Severity Level II problem associated with two violations. The first violation involved the failure to evaluate a piping system for the siphoning or overflow of fissile solutions into an unsafe (nonfavorable) geometry tank and the failure to provide a means of preventing transfer of a highly concentrated solution to a nonfavorable geometry containment. The second violation involved the failure to adhere to procedural limits for uranium contained in a waste receiving tank. In addition, a Severity Level III violation not associated with a civil penalty was issued for multiple examples of failure to follow operating procedures.
