We take our responsibility for protecting our personnel's and the public's health and safety very seriously. We have fully cooperated with Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspectors and will continue to do so. So far in responding to this incident NIST has taken the following actions:
The fact that this incident occurred is unacceptable. We value the NRC's expertise and will rigorously comply with all requirements. We are working very hard to both respond to this incident as completely as quickly as possible and to foster a strengthened safety culture for NIST broadly.
