Title | Agreement State Report - Lost Tritium Exit Sign |
Event Description | Wal-Mart employed the Shaw Group Inc. as a contractor to replace the H3 exit signs in their stores nation-wide. Shaw Group conducted an inventory of the store on March 11, 2008. They returned to the store on May 26, 2008 to replace the H3 sign with a non-tritium exit sign but found it missing. They had no information on the sign being transferred. The Shaw Group conducted interviews with store personnel and reviewed shipment and inventory records, but were not able to locate any additional information about the location or condition of the lost sign.
1. Site: Wal-Mart #5361; Source Material: Sealed source luminous; Manufacturer: SRB Technologies Inc.; Model Number: BX-20-GY; Serial Number: 310248; Activity 17.51 Ci. NE report number - NE080010. THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A "LESS THAN CAT 3" LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks. This source is not amongst those sources or devices identified by the IAEA Code of Conduct for the Safety & Security of Radioactive Sources to be of concern from a radiological standpoint. Therefore is it being categorized as a less than Category 3 source |
