Re: Review of Records by A Regulatory

Along the lines of this thread:

At a recent NRC inspection I had 2 concerns regarding the inspection of 
our records.  

1.  The inspector wanted to take our Radiation Safety Committee minutes 
home to review after business hours.  

2.  After reviewing these minutes (at our facility) they were returned 
all mixed up.  This happened to me once before with some survey records, 
the survey record ended up lost, and then, at the subsequent inspection 
we were cited for not having performed the survey.  I am considering only 
giving the inpectors one record at a time in the future.

I was wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences and/or what 
corrective actions you have taken.  Also, would an NRC representative 
like to speak up on the appropriateness of item 1?  Does the NRC have 
policies on this?  It should.
