Report to Congress on abnormal occurrences, October--December 1989
Section 208 of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974 identifies an abnormal occurrence as an unscheduled incident or event that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission determines to be significant from the standpoint of public health or safety and requires a quarterly report of such events to be made to Congress. This report covers the period from October 1 through December 31, 1989. For this reporting period, there were three abnormal occurrences, none involving a licensed nuclear power plant. Two of the abnormal occurrences involved nuclear material licensees and are described in detail under other NRC-issued licenses. The first involved a medical diagnostic misadministration and the second involved a medical therapy misadministration. The third abnormal occurrence was reported by an Agreement State (Louisiana) and involved an overexposure to an industrial radiographer. The report also contains information that updates a previously reported abnormal occurrence.
