## Description

On April 10, 2012, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation to Morpho Detection, Inc. (MDI), for a Severity Level III problem. The violations involved the licensee’s failure to: 1) file NRC Form 241 “Report of Proposed Activities in Non-Agreement States,” at least three days prior to engaging in licensed activities within NRC jurisdiction, as required by 10 CFR 150.20(b); and 2) store and use the byproduct material under a Agreement State license for a period of less than 180 days in a calendar year, as required by 10 CFR 150.20(b)(4). Specifically, between 2007 and 2011, on multiple occasions, MDI, a Massachusetts Agreement State license, engaged in activities in non-agreement states without obtaining a specific license issued by the NRC or filing NRC Form-241 as required. In addition, the material was stored and used in non-agreement states for periods greater than 180 days in any calendar year.
