NRC STAFF PROPOSES $17,600 FINE AGAINST OHIO ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES

COMPANY FOR VIOLATING REGULATIONS

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has proposed a $17, 600 fine against RMI

Environmental Services (now Earthline Technologies) of Ashtabula, Ohio, for apparently violating

NRC requirements protecting employees from discrimination.

The company from 1962 until 1988 fabricated uranium metal products for the Department of

Energy, the Department of Defense, and other commercial clients. The facility currently is being

decontaminated and decommissioned.

An NRC investigation found that an RMI radiation protection technician was placed on

involuntary leave after he raised safety concerns about the handling of a radioactively contaminated

pipe and other radiation protection issues. The staff cited RMI for discriminating against the employee

who had raised safety concerns and proposed the $17,600 fine.

The NRC staff issued a second violation pertaining to RMIís deliberate failure to control or

limit access to licensed material, specifically from July 31-August 2, 1998, when sections of a

contaminated pipe were improperly stored and labeled at RMIís Ashtabula, Ohio, site. That failure to

properly control the contaminated pipe sections led to the improper removal of the pipes from the site. 

The pipe sections have since been returned to RMIís Ohio facility. The company took prompt and

effective corrective actions, and, as a result, no fine was proposed for this violation.

The NRC staff also issued a separate but related violation to an RMI radiation protection

supervisor for violating the agencyís rule prohibiting deliberate misconduct. The NRC stated the

violation, which did not result in a fine, occurred when the supervisor deliberately failed to control the

concrete pipe contaminated with uranium. 

The State of Ohio - having become an agreement state in 1999 - now has the regulatory

authority over such licensees as RMI. However, since the violations involving RMI occurred prior to

the State of Ohio obtaining agreement state status, the NRC retained regulatory authority over this

case. The state participated in the RMI predecisional enforcement conference and was informed of the

NRCís action in this matter.

An agreement state is a state that has signed an agreement with the NRC, authorizing the state
to regulate the use of radioactive materials within the state. Currently there are 32 agreement states.

In notifying the company of the proposed fine, NRC Regional Administrator James E. Dyer

noted that the amount of the fine was doubled because RMI did not take corrective actions pertaining

to the discrimination violation.

RMI Environmental Services has until October 24 to pay the fine or protest it. If the fine is

protested and subsequently imposed by the NRC staff, the company may request a hearing.

NRC STAFF CONCLUDES D. C. COOK IMPROVEMENTS

SUFFICIENT FOR STARTUP OF UNIT 1

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has determined that the performance improvements

and plant modifications at the D. C. Cook Nuclear Power Station are sufficient for Unit 1 at the plant

to resume operations and operate safely. The two-reactor facility, operated by American Electric

Power Co., is at Bridgman, Michigan.

The utility is completing its final preparations for restart of Unit 1. NRC inspectors will

monitor the startup on a round-the-clock basis until the plant is operating routinely.

Both units at the plant were shut down in September 1997 as a result of NRC inspection

findings which questioned the capabilities of key plant emergency systems to meet their design

requirements. Since then, the utility has completed major reviews of plant safety systems and

corrected problems which were identified.

Unit 2 at the plant resumed operations in June and has operated continuously since startup.

Since the September 1997 shutdown, numerous inspections have been performed by the NRC

resident inspectors and by inspectors based in the regional offices and NRC headquarters in Rockville,

Maryland. These inspections have focused on the improvements being made at the plant and on the

readiness of plant safety systems and the plant staff to resume operation.

An NRC Restart Oversight Panel, composed of managers and staff members from the regional

and headquarters offices, will continue to monitor the performance of Unit 1 as it resumes operations.

This panel has held periodic meetings, open to the public, to review the status of activities at the plant.

The NRC staff has begun the transition of the Cook plant to the agency’s new Reactor

Oversight Process. The new inspection and assessment process was implemented for all other nuclear

power plants earlier this year, but the Cook units were deferred. The transition will be completed after

the plant has sufficient operating experience to generate the performance indicator statistics that are

part of the new process.

The letter from NRC Regional Administrator Jim Dyer to American Electric Power on the

NRC’s restart determination is on the NRC’s web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/OPA/reports

NRC ISSUES PERFORMANCE REVIEW FOR SEABROOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff, in its latest plant performance review, has

found that safety performance at the Seabrook nuclear power plant remains acceptable.

Seabrook, located in Seabrook, N.H., is operated by North Atlantic Energy Services Corp.

In a letter to the company outlining the results of the review, Clifford Anderson, chief of

the NRC Region I Division of Reactor Projects branch responsible for inspecting Seabrook, said

the plant’s management demonstrated a “safe and conservative approach to plant operations”

during the evaluation period of April 1998 through Jan. 15, 1999. Several performance

improvements were implemented at the plant, including an engineering “Fix-It-Now” team, and

there was improved management oversight of the facility’s material condition, he said.

However, Anderson noted that resolving some degraded equipment concerns remain a

challenge, along with human errors during outage operations.

Anderson said routine plant operations were performed well, as were most maintenance

and surveillance activities. Performance in the area of engineering improved since the plant’s

last assessment, while the radiation protection, security and emergency preparedness

programs were effective.

Based on this performance, the NRC staff will conduct normal inspections during the next

evaluation period, with supplemental inspections planned for the following areas: maintenance -

- an assessment of corrective actions for degraded equipment in the maintenance backlog;

plant support -- an Operational Safeguards Response Evaluation (OSRE) and an assessment

of major modifications to the security system.

The text of the plant performance review letter is available from the NRC Region I Office

of Public Affairs and on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/OPA/ppr.

NRC reviews safety performance twice a year at every licensed nuclear power plant in

the nation. These reviews give the agency staff an integrated assessment of plant performance

and provide a basis for planning inspection activities.

Plant performance reviews are being used by the NRC as an interim measure to monitor

nuclear power plant safety. The agency began using it for this purpose after suspending the

Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) process until a new assessment

program is developed. Previously, SALP reports were issued every 12 to 24 months.
The new reactor oversight and assessment program being developed will provide

quarterly performance reports, based on a number of performance indicators and on inspection

findings. This program will be tested at eight sites beginning in June and will be extended to all

plants next January. A full description of the new program is available on the NRC web site at:

http://www.nrc.gov/OPA/primer.htm.
