The Confirmatory Orders document the commitments NFS and the physician have made to the NRC, and those detailed were agreed upon as a result of the NRC’s Alternative Dispute Resolution process. The ADR process uses a neutral mediator with no decision-making authority to assist the NRC and its license holders in resolving differences regarding enforcement actions. Often, the ADR process is more effective than traditional enforcement in developing broad, long-term corrective actions, thus producing a greater benefit for employee and public safety than a one-time fine or other enforcement action.
