Confirmatory Order

Effective Upon Issuance

I

    Mistras Group, LLC. (Mistras) performs activities such as testing 
of heavy lifting equipment at nuclear power plants licensed by the U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission). Mistras, as 
specified in purchase orders and contracts with NRC licensees, is 
required to implement Appendix B, ``Quality Assurance Criteria for 
Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants,'' of Part 50, 
``Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities,'' to 
Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR). Mistras' non-
destructive testing (NDT) service includes usage of an Acoustic 
Emission (AE) Data Acquisition System to examine the structural 
integrity of cranes used for lifting components such as reactor vessel 
heads and reactor vessel internals at many NRC licensee sites.
    This Confirmatory Order (CO) is the result of an agreement reached 
during an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mediation session 
conducted on March 21, 2024, in Rockville, Maryland, to address one 
apparent violation.

II

    On October 22, 2021, the NRC's Office of Investigations (OI) opened 
an investigation (OI Case No. 1-2022-003) at Mistras' Trainer, 
Pennsylvania facility. The investigation, which was completed on 
October 19, 2022, and supplemented on May 9, 2023, evaluated whether a 
former Director of Advanced Services and a former NDT engineer engaged 
in deliberate misconduct by falsifying certificates of calibration for 
AE equipment that was used to perform inspections of heavy lifting 
equipment for safety-related components at nuclear power plants.
    Based on the conclusions of the investigation, the NRC's Office of 
Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Division of Reactor Oversight, Quality 
Assurance Vendor Inspection Branch, issued an apparent violation that 
was documented in an NRC letter, dated December 7, 2023 (Agencywide 
Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. 
ML23340A106).
    The apparent violation of 10 CFR 50.5, ``Deliberate misconduct,'' 
stated that from approximately 2011 until 2021, Mistras (a contractor) 
knowingly provided services related to licensees' activities in 10 CFR 
part 50 and deliberately submitted to licensees information that the 
person submitting the information knew to be incomplete or inaccurate 
in some respect material to the NRC. Specifically, Mistras maintained 
falsified records documenting the calibration of test equipment used at 
nuclear power plants. On multiple occasions, two Mistras employees 
created falsified documents to conceal Mistras' failure to calibrate 
the AE Data Acquisition Systems on an annual basis, as specified by the 
equipment manufacturer. These falsified documents, including 
certificates of calibration, were submitted to NRC licensees as part of 
AE test reports on multiple occasions between approximately 2011 and 
2021.
    Additionally, the apparent violation stated that the Mistras AE 
test reports provided by Mistras to licensees (which included the 
falsified certificates of calibration) are material to the NRC. The 
test reports concerned AE systems that were used in activities 
affecting quality (e.g., AE systems were used by NRC licensees to 
examine the structural integrity of cranes used for lifting components 
such as reactor vessel heads and reactor vessel internals), and the 
test reports are quality assurance records in accordance with Appendix 
B, Criterion XVII, ``Quality Assurance Records,'' to 10 CFR part 50, 
which provide evidence that licensees are in compliance with NRC 
regulations.
    When issuing the apparent violation, the NRC provided Mistras an 
opportunity to attend a pre-decisional enforcement conference or 
participate in an ADR mediation session to resolve this concern. In 
response, Mistras requested the use of the NRC's ADR process. On March 
21, 2024, the NRC and Mistras conducted an ADR session mediated by a 
professional mediator, arranged through Cornell University's Scheinman 
Institute on Conflict Resolution. The ADR process is one in which a 
neutral mediator, with no decision-making authority, assists the 
parties in reaching an agreement to resolve any differences regarding 
the dispute. This Confirmatory Order is issued pursuant to the 
agreement reached during the ADR process.

III

    NRC and Mistras reached a preliminary settlement agreement during a 
full-day mediation session that was conducted on March 21, 2024. The 
elements of the agreement include the following:
    1. In recognition of the prompt and corrective actions taken in 
response to the apparent violation, as documented in this CO and 
discussed at the ADR, Mistras is not required to provide a written 
response in accordance with 10 CFR 2.201. Corrective actions completed 
by Mistras prior to the mediation session include, but are not limited 
to, the following:
    a. Individuals responsible for the fraudulent records had their 
employment terminated.
    b. AE instruments were properly calibrated by Physical Acoustics, 
the manufacturer of the equipment.
    c. Developed a web[hyphen]based training course for all employees, 
which included an introduction by the company's Chief Executive 
Officer, to speak about the importance of promoting a culture of 
ethics, and how any deliberate misconduct has consequences, including 
loss of employment and imprisonment.
    d. Local and Corporate Quality Departments reviewed procedures, 
records, and equipment.
    e. AE procedures and forms were adopted into the Corporate Document 
Center, as formal quality assurance records.
    f. AE test equipment was added to the measuring and test equipment 
(M&TE) recall system.
    g. AE program procedures and work instructions were revised to 
clarify the calibration verification instructions and to identify 
future calibration requirements.
    h. Notification letters were written and distributed to notify 
applicable nuclear power plants of the nonconformance associated with 
their equipment.
    i. An interim report and a final 10 CFR part 21 report were 
submitted to the NRC.
    j. Mistras developed or revised the following procedures:
    i. Revised procedure 100-QC-006, ``Contract Review & Project 
Planning'' to ensure that ``Nuclear Projects'' are submitted to the 
Nuclear Projects Division for review.
    ii. Revised procedure 100-QC-007, ``Project Execution.''
    iii. Developed procedure 100-QC-007.1, ``Nuclear Projects'' which 
defined the Nuclear Projects Division.
    iv. Revised procedure 100-QC-014 ``Internal Audits'' to require 
additional oversight of Nuclear Projects by requiring an annual audit 
by an outside, independent Lead Auditor.
    v. Planned revision of 100-QC-017 ``Control of Nonconforming 
Items.''
    vi. Revised procedure 100-QC-017.1, ``Reporting of Defects and 
Noncompliance in Accordance with 10 CFR part 21 and 10 CFR 50.55(e),'' 
Revision 6, dated October 9, 2023, which incorporates appropriate 
evaluation criteria consistent with guidance provided in Nuclear Energy 
Institute (NEI) 14-09, ``Guidelines for Implementation of 10 CFR part 
21

[[Page 48199]]

Reporting of Defects and Noncompliance.''
    2. Mistras agreed upon future actions in the following areas (see 
Section V for details):
    a. Safety Culture and Safety Conscious Work Environment.
    b. Quality Assurance Program.
    c. Audit.
    d. Quality Assurance Program Training for Employees Involved in 
Nuclear Safety-Related Activities.
    3. The NRC considers the corrective actions and commitments 
delineated above to be appropriately prompt and comprehensive to 
address the causes which resulted in the apparent violation identified 
in NRC's December 7, 2023, letter.
    4. In consideration of the commitments delineated above and 
described in Section V below, the NRC agrees not to assess a civil 
penalty and refrain from issuing a notice of violation for all matters 
discussed in the NRC's choice letter dated December 7, 2023 (EA-23-
105).
    5. The NRC and Mistras agree that the above elements will be 
incorporated into a Confirmatory Order which will also describe the 
apparent violation.
    6. The Confirmatory Order is an escalated enforcement action in 
accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy.
    7. In the event of the sale of Mistras Services division, which 
services commercial nuclear facilities, to another entity, the terms 
and conditions set forth hereunder shall continue to apply to the new 
entity and accordingly survive any transfer of ownership.
    8. The Director, Office of Enforcement, may, in writing, relax, 
rescind, or withdraw any of the above conditions upon demonstration by 
Mistras or its successors of good cause.
    Based on the completed (and planned) actions described above, and 
the commitments described in Section V below, the NRC agrees to not 
pursue any further enforcement action based on the apparent violation 
identified in NRC's December 7, 2023, letter (see Section I).
    On May 15, 2024, Mistras consented to issuing this Confirmatory 
Order with the commitments, as described in Section V below. Mistras 
further agreed that this Confirmatory Order is to be effective upon 
issuance, the agreement memorialized in this Confirmatory Order settles 
the matter between the parties, and Mistras has waived its right to a 
hearing.

IV

    I find that the actions completed or planned by Mistras, as 
described in Section III above, combined with the commitments as set 
forth in Section V, are acceptable and necessary, and conclude that 
public health and safety are reasonably assured with these completed 
actions and commitments. In view of the foregoing, I have determined 
that public health and safety require that Mistras' commitments be 
confirmed by this Order. Based on the above and Mistras' consent, this 
Confirmatory Order is effective upon issuance.

V

    Accordingly, pursuant to Sections 104b, 161b, 161i, 161o, 182, and 
186 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Commission's

VI

    In accordance with 10 CFR 2.202 and 10 CFR 2.309, any person 
adversely affected by this CO, other than Mistras, may request a 
hearing within 30 calendar days of the date of issuance of this CO. 
Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the 
time to request a hearing. A request for extension of time must be made 
in writing to the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555, and include a statement of 
good cause for the extension.
    All documents filed in NRC adjudicatory proceedings, including a 
request for hearing and petition for leave to intervene (petition), any 
motion or other document filed in the proceeding prior to the 
submission of a petition, and documents filed by interested 
governmental entities that request to participate under 10 CFR 
2.315(c), must be filed in accordance with the NRC's E-Filing rule (72 
FR 49139; August 28, 2007, as amended at 77 FR 46562; August 3, 2012). 
The E-Filing process requires participants to submit and serve all 
adjudicatory documents over the internet, or in some cases to mail 
copies on electronic storage media. Detailed guidance on making 
electronic submissions may be found in the Guidance for Electronic 
Submissions to the NRC and on the NRC website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals.html. Participants may not submit paper copies 
of their filings unless they seek an exemption in accordance with the 
procedures described below.
    To comply with the procedural requirements of E-Filing, at least 10 
days prior to the filing deadline, the participant should contact the 
Office of the Secretary by email at [email protected], or by 
telephone at 301-415-1677, to (1) request a digital identification (ID) 
certificate, which allows the participant (or its counsel or 
representative) to digitally sign submissions and access the E-Filing 
system for any proceeding in which it is participating; and (2) advise 
the Secretary that the participant will be submitting a petition or 
other adjudicatory document (even in instances in which the 
participant, or its counsel or representative, already holds an NRC-
issued digital ID certificate). Based upon this information, the 
Secretary will establish an electronic docket for the hearing in this 
proceeding if the Secretary has not already established an electronic 
docket.
    Information about applying for a digital ID certificate is 
available on the NRC's public website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals/getting-started.html. Once a participant has obtained a 
digital ID certificate and a docket has been created, the participant 
can then submit adjudicatory documents. Submissions must be in Portable 
Document Format (PDF). Additional guidance on PDF submissions is 
available on the NRC's public website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/electronic-sub-ref-mat.html. A filing is considered complete at the 
time the document is submitted through the NRC's E-Filing system. To be 
timely, an electronic filing must be submitted to the E-Filing system 
no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Upon receipt of 
a transmission, the E-Filing system time-stamps the document and sends 
the submitter an email notice confirming receipt of the document. The 
E-Filing system also distributes an email notice that provides access 
to the document to the NRC's Office of the General Counsel and any 
others who have advised the Office of the Secretary that they wish to 
participate in the proceeding, so that the filer need not serve the 
document on those participants separately. Therefore, applicants and 
other participants (or their counsel or representative) must apply for 
and receive a digital ID certificate before adjudicatory documents are 
filed so that they can obtain access to the documents via the E-Filing 
system.
    A person filing electronically using the NRC's adjudicatory E-
Filing system may seek assistance by contacting the NRC's Electronic 
Filing Help Desk through the ``Contact Us'' link located on the NRC's 
public website at https://www.nrc.gov/site-help/e-submittals.html, by 
email to [email protected], or by a toll-free call at 1-866-672-
7640. The NRC Electronic Filing Help Desk is available between 9 a.m. 
and 6 p.m., Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, excluding Federal 
government holidays.
    Participants who believe that they have good cause for not 
submitting documents electronically must file an exemption request, in 
accordance with 10 CFR 2.302(g), with their initial paper filing 
stating why there is good cause for not filing electronically and 
requesting authorization to continue to submit documents in paper 
format. Such filings

[[Page 48201]]

must be submitted by (1) first class mail addressed to the Office of 
the Secretary of the Commission, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 
Washington, DC 20555-0001, Attention: Rulemaking and Adjudications 
Staff; or (2) courier, express mail, or expedited delivery service to 
the Office of the Secretary, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland 
20852, Attention: Rulemaking and Adjudications Staff. Participants 
filing adjudicatory documents in this manner are responsible for 
serving the document on all other participants. Filing is considered 
complete by first-class mail as of the time of deposit in the mail, or 
by courier, express mail, or expedited delivery service upon depositing 
the document with the provider of the service. A presiding officer, 
having granted an exemption request from using E-Filing, may require a 
participant or party to use E-Filing if the presiding officer 
subsequently determines that the reason for granting the exemption from 
use of E-Filing no longer exists.
    Documents submitted in adjudicatory proceedings will appear in the 
NRC's electronic hearing docket which is available to the public at 
https://adams.nrc.gov/ehd, unless excluded pursuant to an order of the 
Commission or the presiding officer. If you do not have an NRC-issued 
digital ID certificate as described above, click ``cancel'' when the 
link requests certificates and you will be automatically directed to 
the NRC's electronic hearing dockets where you will be able to access 
any publicly available documents in a particular hearing docket. 
Participants are requested not to include personal privacy information, 
such as social security numbers, home addresses, or personal phone 
numbers in their filings, unless an NRC regulation or other law 
requires submission of such information. For example, in some 
instances, individuals provide home addresses in order to demonstrate 
proximity to a facility or site. With respect to copyrighted works, 
except for limited excerpts that serve the purpose of the adjudicatory 
filings and would constitute a Fair Use application, participants are 
requested not to include copyrighted materials in their submission.
    The Commission will issue a notice or order granting or denying a 
petition, designating the issues for any hearing that will be held, and 
designating the Presiding Officer. A notice granting a hearing will be 
published in the Federal Register and served on the parties to the 
hearing.
    If a person (other than Mistras) requests a hearing, that person 
shall set forth with particularity the manner in which his interest is 
adversely affected by this CO and shall address the criteria set forth 
in 10 CFR 2.309(d) and (f). If a hearing is requested by a person whose 
interest is adversely affected, the Commission will issue an order 
designating the time and place of any hearings. If a hearing is held, 
the issue to be considered at such hearing shall be whether this CO 
should be sustained.
    In the absence of any request for hearing, or written approval of 
an extension of time in which to request a hearing, the provisions 
specified in Section V above shall be final 30 days from the date of 
this CO without further order or proceedings. If an extension of time 
for requesting a hearing has been approved, the provisions specified in 
Section V shall be final when the extension expires if a hearing 
request has not been received.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

    Dated this 22 day of May 2024.
