Title	Agreement State Report - Density Gauge Shutter Stuck in Open Position
Event Description	The following report was received via e-mail: On November 26, 2007, the Agency received a letter from the licensee notifying them that while conducting a routine inventory and shutter inspection of a density gauge, the shutter was found stuck in the open position. The licensee contacted a vendor to repair the gauge. The vendor determined that a bolt on the shutter had broken preventing the shutter from closing. The shutter could not be repaired. The shutter is normally open so there was no increased risk of additional radiation exposure to the workers at the facility. A new device was ordered and the old gauge was disposed of when the new one was installed. The gauge was an Ohmart/VEGA Corporation model SH-F1, serial number 8622 K containing a 50 milliCurie Cesium (Cs) - 137 source. Texas Incident: I-8456
