| Title | Agreement State Report - Moisture Gauge Source Disconnected from Cable |
| Event Description | The State provided the following information via facsimile:
This is the initial notification for an incident that occurred on 7/11/07. A broad-scope licensee reported the loss and recovery of a 50 mCi, Am:Be source from a CPN Model 503DR soil moisture gauge. The gauge was being used as part of an irrigation/moisture study in an agricultural field located about 10 miles south of Sterling, CO. The licensee reported that the source/detector assembly became disconnected from the cable during use, and fell to the bottom of a test hole. The gauge users notified their RSO, and he was able to respond to the scene, retrieve the source, and place it back into the shielded position within the gauge using a remote handling tool. There were no radiation exposures to the gauge users or members of the public, and the RSO estimated his exposure to be less than 20 millirem. The licensee has contacted the manufacturer and is investigating the cause of the problem. |
