Title	Texas Agreement State Report - Badge Indicates Overexposure
Event Description	"On August 11, 2008, the agency received written notification from the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) that a worker's quarterly film badge showed a reading of 40,080 mrem. Additional processing by the provider left the assessment as indeterminate however actual personnel exposure is beyond reality since the licensee is an operator [of] moisture density gauges only. A preliminary investigation has shown that the operator did not maliciously expose or tamper with the dosimeter and there was nothing unusual about the conditions of storage. The RSO stated that a full investigation will be performed to ascertain how the dosimeter received such extensive radiation exposure. The State of Texas will be conducting an on-site investigation.
