The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Information Notice 2007-38, Ensuring Complete and Accurate Information in the Documentation of Training and Experience for Individuals Seeking Approval as Medical Authorized Users, to "inform addressees of the importance of verifying the completeness and accuracy of information provided by individuals seeking authorization for medical use from the NRC under the alternate pathway." The NRC goes on to state that recently the NRC has discovered several instances where licensees have provided documentation of training and experience for proposed authorized individuals that contained false or inaccurate information. Those inappropriate instances are further detailed in the information notice found below.
