## Description

On October 25, 2018, the NRC issued an SLIII problem to Professional Testing& Inspection for (1) a failure to provide complete and accurate information to the NRC; and (2) the possession of byproduct material prior to applying for and receiving an NRC-specific license to possess the material. Specifically, from April 10 through November 24, 2015, information provided to the Commission by an applicant for a license was not complete and accurate in all material respects. The statements provided in the application for an NRC-specific license and during an on-site pre-licensing visit did not disclose that Professional Testing & Inspection, the license applicant, was in possession of byproduct material without a current or valid license. Professional Testing & Inspection possessed and used radium-226 gauges and failed to obtain the required license within 12 months of August 7, 2009.
