Order to Nomad Inspection Services Ltd.
On January 29, 2010 the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission issued an order to Nomad Inspection Services Ltd., a non-destructive testing (NDT) inspection firm based in Alberta. The order required the removal of a certified exposure device operator (CEDO) from all radiography operations using an exposure device until Nomad Inspection Services Inc. can demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the CNSC, that this operator will no longer present a risk to the health and safety of persons.
The order was issued as a result of the CEDO conducting radiography operations south of Dawson Creek, BC without the use of a radiation survey meter.
Nomad Inspection Services Ltd. has since complied with the order.
