LANL gets hit with PNOV for WIPP accident

PNOV=Prelimary Notice Of Violation

The lack of a fine in this case must be comforting to all the residents around Carlsbad.

Did you actually read the article? The PNOV is the END of the process regarding the 2014 release and fire at WIPP, which have been endlessly debated on this blog and elsewhere. The fines were levied last year, as were the low ratings. Try to keep up.

"The LANS PNOV cites two Severity Level I violations and two Severity Level II violations related to nuclear safety requirements enforceable under 10 C.F.R. § 830."

The finding of multiple violations is not the story. The fact that DoE did not levy any fines at this time for these violations is the story.

The fines were levied for these incidents last year. This PNOV is not for "new" incidents. It is the end of the ongoing process.

12:42 PM seems to confuse fines with lost fee. The two are not the same.

The fines were levied by NMED. The lost fee was levied by NNSA. Both have already happened last year.

The fact remains that DoE did not levy fines at this time for these violations. Charlie should put out a press release celebrating this win for LANL.

I want to know what any of this has to do with LLNL? Isn't this the LLNL blog? Looks like the LANL blog. Why don't you guys start your own blog and leave us alone.
