===Regulatory Violations and Consequences ''<sup>(example)</sup>''===
[https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/cfr/part050/part050-0005.html Title 10 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Part 50.5, Deliberate Misconduct] of the [[Nuclear Regulatory Commission|U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)]] regulations, addresses the prohibition of certain activities by individual involved in NRC-licensed activities. 10 CFR 50.5 is designed to ensure the safety and integrity of [[Nuclear industry|nuclear]] operations. [https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/cfr/part050/part050-0009.html 10 CFR Part 50.9, Completeness and Accuracy of Information], focuses on the requirements for providing information and data to the NRC. The intent of 10 CFR 50.5 is to deter and penalize intentional wrongdoing (i.e., violations). 10 CFR 50.9 is crucial in maintaining transparency and reliability in the [[Nuclear industry|nuclear]] industry, which effectively emphasizes honesty and integrity in maintaining the safety and security of nuclear operations. Providing false or misleading information or data to the NRC is therefore a violation of 10 CFR 50.9.

Violation of any of these rules can lead to severe penalties, including [[Termination of employment|termination]], [[Fine (penalty)|fines]] and [[criminal prosecution]]. It can also result in the [[revocation]] of licenses or certifications, thereby barring individuals or entities from participating in any NRC-licensed activities in the future.
