Title	Agreement State Report - Radiography Camera Malfunction
Event Description	This report was received from the state by facsimile. On July 25, 2008, TEAM Industrial Services reported that a source was stuck in the guide tube and could not be returned to the shielded position. The industrial radiography camera involved is a AEA 880 Delta with serial number D2847. The source involved is an AEA source with serial number 45020B that is 49.8 Ci of Ir-192. While the source was in the collimator, the stand that was being used to x-ray welds fell on the guide tube. The radiographers attempted to return the source to the shielded position but could not. The radiographers then returned the source to the collimator and set up a 1 mr/hr boundary around the source. They called the Radiation Safety Officer for TEAM. TEAM contacted QSA Global to retrieve the Ir-192 source. The source was retrieved on July 25, 2008 at 5:30 PM. The guide tube and stand have been taken out of service. The camera and crank-outs are being sent to QSA Global to be inspected. Event Report ID: LA0800016
