Title	Agreement State Report Involving a Damaged Cpn Portable Gauge
Event Description	The following report was received via email: This is the initial notification for an incident that was reported to this Department on 12/19/2007 at approximately 4:00PM. At that time the Department was notified by telephone of an accident involving a CPN model MC1 DR portable gauge. The gauge is owned and operated by Kleinfelder, Inc., Colorado Radioactive Materials License Number 958-01. The incident occurred at a temporary jobsite just outside of Pueblo, Colorado. The individual notifying the Department was . . . the company RSO. The licensee reported that while at the jobsite the operator backed his vehicle over the gauge. At the time of the accident, the Cs-137 source was in its shielded position. The result of the accident was that the handle/source rod was snapped off above the gauge case approximately 6 inches from the top of the handle. The source remained in the shielded position and the body of the gauge remained intact with no apparent damage. The gauge was inspected by Department personnel on 02/04/2008 and was found to be in the condition previously described by the RSO. The department had directed the Licensee to leak test the gauge at the time the report was initially made and the results are pending. Once the leak test results are received by the Department the licensee will be directed to provide details on repair or disposal of the gauge. No other details are available at this time.
