Title	Agreement State (Ne) Notification of Lost Tritium Sources
Event Description	The licensee reported that upon an inventory check in early February 2004, two general licensed self-luminous exit signs were missing and are currently unaccounted for. The two units were purchased from SRB Technologies, Inc (serial #'s 18132 and 16138) containing 24 curies of activity each as assayed in May of 1985. These exit signs were purchased and installed in 1985 and were removed and held in storage since 1990. The licensee has concluded that the exit signs were unintentionally disposed of or misplaced and thrown away during a clean-up of inventory from their change of ownership to Newell Rubbermaid Inc. Efforts of locating and recovering these units have been unsuccessful. The remaining five signs were placed in a single container and stored in a locked fireproof cabinet for subsequent transfer to their respective manufacturers for proper disposal.
